NORTHAMPTON, MASSACHUSETTS, October 13, 2009. Observer Abd ul-Rahman
Lomax, of Lomax Design Associates, having presented the Vortex-l
mailing list with a detailed criticism of the outrageous behavior of
Jed Rothwell, famous nut-bag "author" and so-called "librarian" of
lenr-canr.org, a collection of rants from alleged "scientists" and
"researchers," deluded by wishful thinking into misreading their
instruments, received this mail from Rothwell, in which he viciously
libels Mr. Lomax as "hysterical," impugning not only his integrity
but that of all persons suffering from mental problems. Fortunately,
Mr. Lomax has an ample supply of drugs and was not seriously harmed
by this scurrilous attack, and, after a night's rest, will probably
be fine. However, as a precaution, Mr. Lomax will be checking all his
food with a Geiger counter, there is no telling what these cold
fusioneers will stoop to in their pursuit of world domination through
Pathological Science.
Now, where were we? Ah, yes:
Regarding Martin Fleischmann, people who has seen him often in the
past year tell me that he seems remarkably better lately. I cannot
judge whether this is thanks to the treatment or just a natural
improvement. It is good news either way. I will be interested in
finding out if the therapy works, for personal reasons.
Scares the hell out of me. My ex-wife once tried to give me some
tachyon beads when I had a headache, and I turned her down. My
thinking was, "What if it works?" I.e., the headache goes away? If
they were free, why not? But they aren't free, they cost $10 each,
and supposedly one needed dozens of them or more, little pieces of
plastic treated by the Secret Advanced Tachyon Bead process, to soak
them with Tachyon Energy. This was almost twenty years ago, and I see
that they are still being sold. Great stuff, I'm sure, I probably
passed up a chance to be immortal.

Okay, to be fair, the second from the last is a debunker, and quotes
this excerpt from Advanced Tachyon Technologies (Slogan: Better
Living through Tachyon):
Tachyon Energy is the very first energetic structure that emerges
out of non-structured, formless Zero-Point Energy. Just like
Zero-Point Energy, Tachyon is not limited to a certain frequency.
Tachyon cannot be measured in the Hertzian frequency spectrum. It is
not a certain type of energy. Rather, it includes all energies
within itself. Its qualities are much like Zero-Point Energy,
varying only in that it is a structured field.
My apologies to the serious ZPE researchers here. You are no more
responsible for the long-term tachyon scam than are cold fusion
researchers for the activities of various charlatans who have
attempted to capitalize on non-existent CF technology. It's possible,
even, that people are helped by tachyon beads, but people are helped
by placebos and by homeopathic remedies, which might be little
different, and are usually much less expensive.
Is LifeWave a scam? Hard to tell, frankly, though it sounds weird as
hell. But it's up to Fleischmann and his family what treatments they
use, and I'm not thrilled by prosecution of health scammers unless
they truly *scam,* i.e., lie or seriously misrepresent what they are
doing, and often state agencies don't care much about the distinction
between fringe and fraud, and there is a difference, which is why I
don't place high immediate value on Dardik's license revocation.
Fleischmann gave a short talk at the beginning of the conference. He
sounded tired but mentally all there, as he did in conversation
later. His talk was greeted with a standing ovation from all
participants, which he richly deserves.
He deserves, actually, a Nobel prize. I'd say that even if it turns
out that CF, somehow, is a bust. Fleischmann was doing what is too
little done, exploring the boundaries of the assumptions of quantum
mechanics; as I'm sure Rothwell knows, Fleischmann has said that he
expected the inaccuracies of quantum mechanics to be below
measurement error. He was wrong, and for being willing to look at
something where he expected a boring result that nobody would be
interested in, he deserves the prize. He was lucky and we were lucky,
though, that he had some palladium that worked, he could easily have
had a different batch, and it might have been a long time before
anyone else decided to follow up on one of those weird palladium
deuteride phenomena.
