pseudoscience?

I'm no physicist and don't know very much about this subject, but I think this is interesting, is this guy very wrong or could he be right? and if so why doesn't anyone use his theory?

16.2 ELECTROSTATIC FIELD: Electrostatic and Magnetic forces are local force-field effects, as compared to the infinite range of Gravity force caused by electromagnetic Power Wave shading, and the infinite range of electromagnetic Light waves.

The electrostatic force field causes a warp in the Ether elastic lattice web fabric. (I was using the term Ether force field sometimes, and still use the term Ether Lines-Of-Force. But in fact there is probably no force associated with them except the stretched elastic attribute.

WTF??????

LOCAL force-field effects???? Infinite range of Gravity force???? Electromagnetic Power Wave shading???? Warp in the Ether elastic lattice web fabric????
Is this guy on crack?

OK, let's take this slowly. First, it's all pseudo-science. This guy is using all know words from physics and tossing them around for show. Ether was a term to describe the medium through which light propagated (I think, there might be other "users"), it was abandoned when it was shown the electromagnetic nature of light.
Second, the mentioned electrostatic field is created by one charge with which other charge interacts, with a force inversely proportional to the square of their separation. The same is equal to a gravitational field, just replace charge with mass. Either way, they are subject to the inverse square law, there isn't "local" and "infinite".
The rest I'm not gonna even touch it.

I'm afraid is all a lot of junk, mixed with keywords to camouflage. Unfortunately, there are still a lot of people like this around.

I can imagine all the great ones getting agitated in their tombs for such abuse of their works.

He conveniently forgot to mention in his "invalidation" of the Michelson-Morely experiment that a photon can knock an electron out of an orbital, something a wave cannot do.

I entirely agree, but remember, a photon is a particle AND a wave.

Yes, I know. Otherwise, a beam of light wouldn't scatter when passed through a slit.

Anyone know's what the "creationists" or the "pseudo-scientists" have to say about that? Or they just don't care about that experiment?

Hmmm . . .
a) No publication in scientific peer-reviewed journals.
b) A C.V. that shows he has no actual education as a physicist or mathematician.
c) It looks like some fancy background for his science fiction novel that he's writing. (Refer to his C.V.)
d) His theories advance nothing new, nor do they actually predict anything that has been experimentally tested. (Unlike Einstein's General Theory of Relativity.)

Thus . . .

a) It's pseudoscience.
b) As a result, he is full of shit.

As per the Preface; This is a serious work of science, based upon solid facts. I PROVIDE MECHANISMS, not math, for Seven Modes of the Gravity Effect and for Uniting the proven theories of Relativity and Quantum Mechanics.

Yeah, right... Damn, it's so hard doing all this math!! Aww to hell with it, I'll just say how it works, let other's do the math.
Serious work of science? Solid facts? The only solid facts are the papers were some poor soul might print this garbage.

Scientific papers may be written adapting this new material based upon the M&M Experiment and Non-Skewed Lightwaves Experiment Invalidations, using these scientific concepts only as caveats to old-style legitimate work already performed or in progress; with major credit references to Mr. J Raymond Redbourne. Existing classroom textbooks and course procedures may be freely corrected immediately to conform with these concepts, with credits to JR Redbourne. Equipment designs may be corrected to conform with these concepts with credit to JR Redbourne. This is pretty darned generous.

Old-style legitimate work?
And he's being very generous!!!

It is also to get it quickly into the public domain to thwart attempts to suffocate this information by attacks from political, religious, academic, military and quasi-military organizations. I’m so paranoid, I’d be surprised if men-in-black don’t show up at my door. I, JR Redbourne, reserve the right to first formal commercial publication of this material. I will deal with sneaky plagiarism and outright theft severely and personally. I have all the original developmental work in safekeeping. I have original hard copies and floppy discs in the possession of legal authorities, and dated previous to this email. I also have a list of technical questions I will immediately put to any thief. Any SOB that tries to steal it from me can expect me to show up dressed in black. In the properly published book, credits to everyone I can think of, and am informed of, will be included.

So there!
I wonder if Isaac Newton had any trouble with MIB's...

Thanks to the Pierre Curies, Martin Luther Kings and Astronauts who died at the leading edge.

Stop insulting them!

I’m leaving my brain to McMaster University for the shrinks to break it down from wholesale into retail packages, and pickle it.

The only decent thing in the whole site.
