Jones, If we discover how to put ZPE to work, does that by definition suggest that we are extracting energy from the vacuum that would have been directed toward expansion of the universe? This leads to an interesting mind experiment. Suppose a method is conceived of that allows one to extract an enormous amount of ZPE(dark energy?), so much in fact that the expansion is halted. I would assume that ZPE can be converted into potential, kinetic, and eventually heat energy as it is absorbed. Would that reverse the big bang?
One might conclude that the dark energy, if that is what is extracted as ZPE, could be transformed into normal energy and mass. It would be refreshing to locate a source of energy from which the ZPE could be deducted to satisfy COE overall. After all, observations of galaxy motion is what led to the theory of dark matter and its brother, dark energy is assumed responsible for the expansion of the universe according to certain theories.

In short the QHO can be (arguably) applicable to the Dirac "sea" and the epo field, and efforts to harness that field. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_vibration You can look at the animation and imagine that the red ball, which passes through a vertical line represents a positron passing through the 1D interface into 3-space but returning. This is essentially a visualization of Wheeler's "quantum foam." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_foam If we relate this kind of interfacial oscillation to CMB, and an energy conversion device which attempts to tap into ZPE, then a prime frequency for consideration around 100 GHz or 3 mm wavelength. This is near the peak of the CMB emission curve - which is usually said to model blackbody radiation at about 2.7 degrees K. http://asd.gsfc.nasa.gov/archive/arcade/images/cmb_intensity.gif Side note: no one can dispute that the CMB curve is a good fit to the blackbody curve (identical almost)- only that the source of the radiation does not necessarily relate to a 14 billion year old event as the mainstream believes. In fact, The Big Bang is an extremely unlikely interpretation of why we have a blackbody curve in this spectrum. But that is for another time or place. For now, the interesting question is "how one can utilize the QHO at 100 GHZ". The answer could be related to semiconductors and microlithography. Lasers are already available for this frequency, and the wavelength is easy to fabricate as a fractal antenna. Switching frequency is also possible and IBM has been there for a few years already with graphene. http://www.tomshardware.com/news/ibm-transistor-graphene-100ghz-material,961 1.html All that an attempt to cohere ZPE requires is for a visionary chip company to buy into the argument that there is energy gain in this configuration at near the peak of the CMB spectrum, which is due to Dirac sea bleedover. Of course, there are a few other details which need to be built into the chip. Call me, Intel or Google ... the self-powering smart phone is in play...
