# THE GYROSCOPIC INERTIAL THRUSTER

*UPDATE 10*

* OLD NEWS * . NEXT UPDATE .* INDEX *

V1.18 Updated 8 July 1977

Things are moving at a rather smart pace now, Somewhere near 30 thousand files out (numbers now are like an odometer on amphetamines), Over 37 countries (those that I can identify), some VERY interesting commercial domains, one picked up 41 files (can you guess one of the largest manufacturers of BALL BEARINGS in the US of A? I'll give you a hint, it starts with a {T hat might get me into trouble!}), and 6 separate file download sessions from someone(s) at my favorite aero-space firm, but yet not a peep (OK, I know they need their lawyer's permission to sneeze, but still!).

An unusual number of Proxy, Anonymous, Unknown, and unresolved numeric domains are pulling files. There is a special place for those believing they can "get away" with ANYTHING in this world; Two floors down and to the left (or right, makes no difference at that point!). My beliefs are my own, and the last statement is meant as an allegory, a well known mental picture, just in case you believe me to be one of THOSE people. I won't be put into a box.

BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU ASK FOR, YOU MAY GET IT ! !

Uhmmmm..... I'm getting MAIL ! ! and happy about it i aAm , yyeEESss! I'm pounding these keys so hard now, I'm up to 30 WPM (and I'm a hunt and peck typist!), just keeping up. Trying to go to the bathroom is an exercise in painful decision making, send now?, can it wait? More will come in with the next send and recieve button click; will the next letter in be so interesting that I'll have a mess to clean up?

If you don't know the wonderment of no longer being isolated in a cruel and teasing world, the last statements will be lost on you. Hope you're not embarassed (or was that am bar....dzzzt, never mind!), by my emotional outburst.

I'm letting some of the communications that I've recieved leak into what should be a concise exploration of leading edge technology, mostly to express a joy I've discovered in communicating with like-minded individuals. See the new service I've begun on my site to share this phenomenon with others below, the networking list.

The following quote is from my favorite Chemical Engineer, James J. Bolstad, and is a VERY insightful observation about a wall that most scientists run smack into when anyone tries to put across the concept of inertial propulsion, and I'll let him speak for himself:

I have discovered a good counter-argument for people that say inertial propulsion is not possible because it violates Newton's Laws of Motion. These laws were derived to apply to PARTICLES ONLY. They were derived from observing planets, which exhibit particle-like behavior over astronomical distances.

Any extension of Newton's Laws to BODIES carries in it the assumption that all particles in the BODY are in fixed relationship to one another, and are not in relative motion. So trying to apply Newton's Laws to systems that contain parts which have acceleration with respect to each other, is clearly outside the scope for which the laws were intended.

I couldn't have said it better myself! (Believe me, I would have had I thought of it!)

I must offer an abject appology to some rather prominent people whose names were bandied about in my first group send (I didn't know that each and every one on the list got a copy of everyone else on the list!). Oooh, I can REALLY mess up BIG TIME when playing with technology I only have a rudimentary knowlege of!

If you were one of the people who recieved my first group send announcing the start up of my PUBLIC NETWORKING LIST and were NOT amused with the thought of being included in a list of folks who were seriously exploring inertial propulsion as a real possibility, you have my sincerest appology! (and my sympathys for .....mmmm, another time). Obviously I have my share of fox paws now and again, PLEASE give me some space to make my mistakes, and be forgiving of my errors (unless I don't learn, then you have my permission to get more sincere).

I have had a few of the folks that write me want to be included on a new page I will be posting, hopefully by the middle of this week. The page will be a networking list of people who are wanting to recieve mail from others centered on their interests.

If you would like to be included on that page, send me your name, your e-mail address, web site address (for related sites), and up to 3 lines (about 40 words or so) of interests that you would like to recieve mail about.

This site is centering on alternative propulsion and alternative energy, but other interests you have are OK as well (within reason, as younger explorers also visit this site).

Networking is a good way to find out about things you might never discover without open communication with others, and I believe networking will help insure that some of the very needed inventions and ideas get put into reality (like mine!).

10 July 1997 Thursday

The networking page has been added, and now linked through an updated index. Lots of interesting mail these days, now I know I'm not alone in resisting the dummification process we call public education these days (it's becoming an oxymoron like "consistant coincidence" is).

A 7th BIG (45 files) download from that big airplane manufacturer that won't talk to me (I'm expecting a legal threat if I keep this up, lucky me I'm a pro se, and typing paper is cheap!). There is also a big sattalite manufacturer with 4 download sessions, and a world class financial institution named after an extremely wealthy, not so nice world shaker, and many other interesting big companies! (changed wording 21 July 1997)

With all the activity, and a more relaxed attitude on my part, updates will now run around 10 days between, although I WILL continue the practice of late breaking news being tacked on the current updates page, just as a method of providing serendipity to who gets what information (and allow for some who shouldn't get that info a "hole" in they're knowlege until it's safe for them to get it), intuition guides me, perhaps a little more than is "logical" but then logic (such as, "there ain't no way for inertial propulsion to exist"), doesn't have the track record that my intuition has.

Stay Tuned! 12:05 pm. 10 July 1997

THIS JUST IN! THE FIRST PRIZE GOES TO JAMES HURL IN AUSTRALIA !!! James is the first to independantly confirm to me the operation of the GIT principle, and I will be posting his picture and the device he made to verify the thrust characteristics of the Gyroscopic Inertial Thruster when he can find a digital camera to get it here. He has said a movie is in the works also (well a short one for loading times).

He writes that he was rather suprised at the developed thrust, which marched his device across the kitchen floor before he could catch it, and it broke apart against his refrigerator into a scattering of balls all over the place! And I was happy with 1/4 inch per second! He has been added to my networking page if you want to inquire.

He is a student, and has to fight for computer time, so please be patient with his reply. He said more experiments are on the way, one with balloons to loft the device, and some radio control additions to test manuverability. Please tell him we're proud of him, WAY TO GO JAMES!
