Horace,
I did apologize for frustrating you previously from work but it
looks like the email never sent so excuse me if this gets repeated when I
boot my system on Monday, I was surprised that I upset you as that was not
my intention. I do respect your work and am enjoying working my way through
your website, papers and citations. I am still able to read technical
articles with some comprehension even though my ability to write is
apparently in question. I understand perfectly if you need to husband your
time and there isn't even any need to respond to this apology. I do
appreciate your insights and I hope you won't mind if I continue to mine
your website, I want to use your atomic inflation paper as a model for
submitting my theory to Infinite energy. I had 2 years of engineering
Physics from Rutgers 81-82 and haven't done any physics or math outside of
electronics ever since - but I still remember a lot of the concepts and will
try to couch my theory in the same terms as your paper where appropriate.
The Haisch-Moddel patent, Your Atomic inflation paper and my theory are all
variations on the same theme. If all I accomplish is to make the mainstream
briefly consider the relativistic interpretation of "up conversion" it will
be worth all the embarrassment. I believe that hat single little difference
in interpretation is the key to unlocking ZPE.
Regards
Fran

Instructive? Did you actually *read* them. Where in them did you
see vacuum fluctuations mentioned in relation to computing the
Casimir force? The Casimir force is the result of electromagnetic
zero-point energy, not particles like positrons and electrons.
Virtual pair creation is the result of very high energy vacuum
fluctuations, far beyond the wavelength of the virtual photons
involved in the Casimir force. Casimir force calculations are based
on comparatively low energy wave theory, the wave energy and momentum
carried by the zero point field. Perhaps you were confused by the
mention of particles in: "Out of this work emerged the reasons for
such phenomena as the uncertainty principle, the incessant
fluctuation of particle motion, the existence of Van Der Waals forces
even at zero temperature, and so forth, all shown to be due to the
influence of the unceasing activity of the random background
fields." This merely says that the zero point field causes particles
to vibrate. It doesn't say particles are involved in the Casimir
force. The Casimir force is a wave based phenomenon.

This is an inane strawman argument. I just put forth in the last day
or so at least 4 methods of using the ZPF for generating either
energy or thrust. Did you read them? Apparently not. I have never
denied the feasible application of vacuum energy nor have I
guaranteed it. I have merely put forth a number of inventions which
might use it, justification for their design, and in some cases
extensive quantification. What a waste of time.
Best regards,
