Why are scientists stealing our electricity?, page

Hello all,

Why are names like Tesla and Faraday - treated as though they are traitors? Faraday being the pioneer that demonstrated that electricity flows from a moving magnetic field.

Why did NASA try to hide the fact that a wire they trailed from one of the shuttles generate a current that damaged most of the computers on board.

Why is it kept secret that in WW II, the German navy drained small portions of the French wetlands using a process called "electro-osmosis" - where metal rods were placed in the soil and small electric currents applied that drove the water out of the area so footings could be laid?

Why is it kept secret that the same methodology was used by German engineers who applied currents to the tracks of tanks when mired.

Why is it kept secret that the most probable explanation for earthquake is that they are earthbound lightning?

Why is it kept secret that the most probable explanation for the formation of the Grand Canyon was an electrical discharge?

There is one article on this that I know of: Janet Raloff, "Managing water pollutants in soil with electric currents." Science News, Vol. 148, September 9, 1995, Pg. 168

While I will agree that a lot of Tesla's workings are being withheld, you also have to keep in mind that he, himself destroyed a lot of his work for fear it would be used for nefarious purposes.

As for Faraday? A lot of his workings are used in the modern world. The main example would be the Faraday Cage. There's also his law of induction, his invention of the dynamo, and discovered the laws of ectrolysis, to name a few more.

As for the other claims you staked, could you provide links backing them up? The one you provided about the Grand Canyon being created by an electrical discharge doesn't say anything about that happening.

You mentioned one article, but you didn't say anything about it other than you "know of" it. Does it answer the questions you posed, or did it pose them, or what?

Sources of Plate Motion covered in the Tectonic Theory

That's OT now, but why not, it's remotely on topic when you consider that plate tectonics was once thought of as a fringe theory...

Now i understand it all . maybe i shouldn't have said 'don't attempt' because they surely do, but i have a huge problem with 'deep mantle convections'.

Source

Current research considers the motion of the crust associated with plate tectonics as the surface manifestation of a much deeper mantle circulation.

Consider the Hawaiian hotspot, its position relative to the crust is undoubtedly moving, if the mantle moved along with the crust, as this model would imply, then it would a) have to cut through thousands of miles of rock instead of just a few miles and b) maintain precise alignment to something else (the core??), an unlikely event, barring magick, of course.

Even your original link mentioned 'hotspot reference', so the concept is apparently accepted. That said, what i posted may have been sweeping and partially incorrect, but i doubt casual research would have changed my general view on the subject or the overall content of my original post...

PS: note that i am not writing with any authority, so this post is provided 'as is' - just food for thought.
