Howdy John,
Discussion among Vorts is never a waste of time. Bill Beatty's challenge to Ron
Stiffler began a most healthy dialogue much needed as the search goes on. It
was unfortunate that Ron felt abused rather than challenged by comments posted.
I have often returned to the subject of "vortex" as a dampener of skeptics
regarding the search for available energy. Anyone studying a hurricane gets a
first hand glimpse of the amazing energy represented... not by the
concentration of the wind forces circulating at high speed.. but the simple
more overlooked " eyewall".
In the center, some huge hurricane eyewalls are 20 miles or more across. Search
planes entering this eyewall find a calm, full sunshine and birds flying around.
It is the calm that is the phenomena. I have experienced this back in the
1940's near Houston when the eyewall came across our home with a sudden calm
and sunshine.
Ron has presented an interesting series of experiments and conclusions. I .like
many in this group, am a horse of a different color and gain a mental image of
a relationship between the massive energy of the hurricane and the equal
massive energy represented by the calm.
What my point is... is that there is more useable energy available in the calm
than in the winds.. IF.. we learn how to tap it.. There is a relationship
between Ron's work..
When looking thru a window with no walls.. one must decide.. does one look
"out" or "in" the window? The calm or the wind?
