If you looking for guarantees you got to go to church Skippy.

Two unproved theories are simulated against each other
And we "extract " knowledge" from it!
Just a tad bit of "theory"....:)
This is where we have cosmology based on solid ground these days...

Hooyeei, I sure make a lot of people mad with me on that one. Eight peoples join up in a group to show me that is so. They must have pooled their money to hire the bus because they all got here about three or two minutes apart. It's good to be the Ira-Skippy and I thanks all of you.

@Hey, Thermo-Skippy, you make nine, and I not count you because you at least have something to say when you gets mad with somebody. Shoot, if it weren't for you voting, I'd be feeling like the Zephir-Skippy gets all down karmas. Thanks for you too, but it don't mean as much as whoever the couyon(s) are who went to so much trouble to let me know I wrote a good postum.

Laissez les bons temps rouler Skippy(s) ol Ira is on the job.

But we don't even know if gravitational waves really exist. The theory of gravity is still full of unknowns.

Dude, where have you been for the last 99 years? Read this Wikipedia page on Tests of general relativity and then tell us which of the tests you don't understand.

@Protoplasmix: what part of "But we don't even know if gravitational waves really exist" are you taking issue with? It's one of the tests that totally lacks observation.

Not objecting to GR, ya unnerstan, just to your objection.

I have a couple of points/questions here. The experiment is constructed with conditions of what the scientists THINK grav wave are? So I'm not sure what even a positive result proves.
As I understand s/conductors in very simple (layman's) terms Cooper Pairs have a particular energy passing between them and I don't recall an explanation for this. So might such an experiment using lasers be about this rather than gavity?Spinning SC's produce a magnetic field so would the Earth's movement induce a magnetic moment that could affect results (via LP depth) if not accounted for?
I know that we have laser and SC experts post on this sometimes so I'm hoping they'll post here to offer their advice. Does this procedure really provide an alternative method for detecting gav waves?

Laissez les bons temps rouler Skippy(s) ol Ira is on the job.

Good karma points on you, Ira, you always know who to give the special hats to. Rock & rouler.

Spacetime physics is really a joke, an insult to the lay public. The problem with "ripples in spacetime" is that nothing can move in spacetime by definition. Why? Because a time dimension makes motion impossible, that's why. This is the reason that Karl Popper called spacetime, "Einstein's block universe in which nothing happens."

Deal with this first and then come back and talk the lay public about gravity waves. Remember who pays your salaries. Not everybody is fooled.

Not objecting to GR, ya unnerstan, just to your objection.

Did you read the page? Which of the tests do you take issue with, and why?

When they say a "long" superconducting wire, are they talking yards, miles, astronomical units, or light years?

This is not a Facebook, but a thread about physics. The people's names are irrelevant here.

You're right it's about physics, and you're one of the resident experts on trolls, sockpuppets and irrelevant names. Not enough good volunteers for all the threads and the two regulars I asked about have been absent too long. I think ignorance currently outnumbers intelligence, much to society's detriment, but the latter will inevitably prevail. That prediction is rooted in physics, and our exponential progress is a good indicator.

Both at times obnoxious but super smart. Just for the memory here's a classic Vendi(ism) for you *ProtoTard*. Remember?

@Protoplasmix: reported.

@ortero: laughed at

@bluehigh: Yup, fondly. I never earned a tardi-boy award from him and gained some insight every time he ripped apart a false argument or glaring cognitive error from those who did.

Good luck with this new gadget. I hope you find something. No detector to date has been able to

Bob, a detector consisting of a binary star system where one or both of the stars is a pulsar makes for a pretty good natural detector. See the section on strong field tests of general relativity on the Wikipedia page Tests of general relativity. The 'new gadget' isn't a detector; rather it's a way learn about how gravitational wave radiation might be directly detected, or what might be observable, using a superconducting wire. Also note that GW radiation is not the same as electromagnetic (EM) waves/radiation – check it out: http://www.einste...gw_waves

about how gravitational wave radiation might be directly detected, or what might be observable

Or not detected or not observed. Whatever, it's worth another attempt with this experiment. Else it's time to review, after all there's only so many times one can throw a ball up and decide it always comes back down. - I bet I'd get ripped to pieces and maybe even a tardi-boy award for that. *sigh*. All those years at the academy wasted. Sailing on my silver ship ...

Both at times obnoxious but super smart

Fleetfoot corrected me once (re scaling and infinity) and wasn't at all obnoxious. Guaranteed I won't make the error again, and still appreciative of the correction. In the same breath he told me about duality and I'm still learning more about that. Visualizing and understanding general relativity is quite challenging. E8 boggles my mind, since it seems that if the math allows it then nature does it.

There is no "spacetime", it's just a simpler representation of the force vectors at play. Also, to think of time as a dimension makes no sense, since time is relative to the observer and is a function of velocity. We experience only 3 dimensions, with time being nothing more than biological aging and awareness. Ask yourself: how much time do you experience when your sleeping? Time is another construct of the human mind to make sense of the universe's natural cycles.

There is no "spacetime"

^^^ Now that's baiting and it looks quite masterfully done. Yup, I'd say Scroofy wins the "Master Baiter" award.

Ask yourself: how much time do you experience when your sleeping?

When my sleeping what?

Quoting from the paragraph on "the frequency dependence of mass" you have, "Since E = h nu and E = mc^2, m = h nu / c^2 that is the m depends only on the nu frequency. It means that the mass of the proton and electron are electromagnetic and the result of the electromagnetic induction, caused by the changing acceleration of the spinning and moving charge!"

Seems like you'd be hard pressed to explain how a cyclotron works. This page, What is relativistic mass?, may be helpful to you.

@Protoplasmix
here is something worth thinking about: Zeph is arguing that the data should be more important than the names, correct? Regardless of past history and the fact that certain trolls have systematically used PO as a hook for known pseudoscience.
Then all of the sudden we see a flood of sock-puppets upvoting zephir and cantdrive, and downvoting anyone with an argument against them.
the list for you, Proto:
rhsthjnty, tirahobis, pehawev, yefeb, bikuxem, retejap, xanuxul, debokolin, gipagajege, yejen, godivecu, befa, rovodeh, vudamezire, cuyajuyino, yolepugor, begalifowi, megayugo, juhodo, bibigak, fetem, sosamuca

those names sound decidedly eastern European... hmm.
all created on Jul 10 around 4:36-4:50 or so. all supporting certain people, and targeting certain others.
Report them to the site using the CONTACT button at the bottom of the page
use SITE PROBLEM to get it addressed quickly

The censors, name callers and twaddlers must be censored systematically.

@zeph
youi forgot the pseudoscience and the debunked science, or is that OK to you?
YOU ARE RIGHT!
I think we should ALL get together and report the following sock puppets:
rhsthjnty, tirahobis, pehawev, yefeb, bikuxem, retejap, xanuxul, debokolin, gipagajege, yejen, godivecu, befa, rovodeh, vudamezire, cuyajuyino, yolepugor, begalifowi, megayugo, juhodo, bibigak, fetem, sosamuca

and then we should tell the site admin that ANYONE with the same IP addresses of thos sock puppets should be PERMA-BANNED and not allowed to even access the site again!
THAT is fair, right zeph? i mean... if someone like, say, IRA or ME created 20 or 30 sock puppets just to downvote people and upvote others, shouldn't we be banned as being idiots and cowards?

EVERYONE, I am going to use the SITE PROBLEM function of the CONTACT button at the bottom of the page... and suggest exactly that!

PEACE yall

, we can say as easily, they were formed with one of you for to discredit me and to provide an evasion for my banning from PO

@zephir
even though I have been all over the entire planet, and I have heard a crap load of languages, even I couldn't mimic Slovenian well enough for Google translate to pick it out of a pile of UN-translateable words...
so... you are saying that someone was patient enough to research Slovenian and design a slew of words in slovenian after learning their typical form and sound, then set you up... but just you, here on PO?
really?

it's entertaining to watch, how the regular voting trolls are getting upset with it

and by that you mean everyone who downvotes you.
you never post anything off topic and you never post known pseudoscience or debunked science?
what you've done is established that your credibility is formed by the sock-puppets you created, which only COMPLETELY undermines your arguments about substance above proving you are untrustworthy

IP address and time of every post, so they will realize, these accounts aren't mine

@zephir
thanks for pointing out that you are operating on TOR
you DO know that now another TOR user is capable of tracking you, right?
because now they will have the same protocols that you use?
and if you are using the browser set up for you by TOR and given away publicly on their site, then...

interesting to know that you have to circumvent IP bans with TOR.
but you also forgot that when you allow cookies (like on the PO site when you have a PROFILE) then that also undermines TOR by establishing a direct link to your system rather than a link through the TOR network? (otherwise you wouldn't be able to use the SAME profile at different times)
which can be utilised by the management
and anyone decent enough at hacking

just something to think about
(should have read the TOR guidelines and suggestions which tell you to change your habits, not keep them)

@ Socratic-Skippy was that you that got mad with me and started all those Skippys to vote me bad karma points all together at one time? I don't understand what I said to make you so mad with me no. I didn't even know you are the mb9-Skippy up there where I said my comment because you usually make up more weird names than that. But you didn't have to take it out on the xyz-Skippy too over on the Hubble article thing because he is one of the nicest peoples here.

IMO this is the actual reason, why we are discussing the social issues here all the time: for most of lonely elderly chaps here it's more palatable topic, than the actual science.

@zephir
you're "deducing" too much, zephir
perhaps it is just that some people don't like cowards? and whiny little snots who keep posting BS or unsubstantiated claims and making assertions that they know something when they're about as logical as a turd in a space suit helmet?
I do just fine with physics, even though I have much stronger abilities elsewhere

the question really is: why do you feel the need to have so many sock-puppets up vote your comments?
does it make you feel more important?
a wrong comment can be reported and deleted even if it has a thousand 5stars. You've had that happen to you already more than once.

don't mistake copious amounts of free time and a passion for science for loneliness. that is called projecting. just because YOU are a lonely troll, doesn't mean WE are.

IMO this is the actual reason, why we are discussing the social issues here all the time: for most of lonely elderly chaps here it's more palatable topic, than the actual science

@zephir
so keeping tabs on an important resource of information and monitoring people who have already had thousands of hours arguing the same arguments that are happening here is a bad thing?
why go through all the same leg-work when it is available elsewhere, easily looked up and has plentiful reference material? AND it correct?

are you stupid?
having a resource like that is GOLD!
it makes life easier... and instead of re-inventing the wheel, you just copy/paste valid relevant data and let the OP fret about coming up with something that has NOT been refuted

so go ahead and post.
BTW - I put out some feelers to other virtual servers like me on TOR and some other places...
if you get arrested for being a supporter of al qaeda... let me know

Then all of the sudden we see a flood of sock-puppets upvoting zephir and cantdrive, and downvoting anyone with an argument against them.
the list for you, Proto…

Thanks, Cap'n, I appreciate the heads-up and the efforts, as always. I believe Zeph if he says the socks aren't his. But I certainly won't be calling him an expert again any time soon. I'm pretty sure the root of the obfuscation, disinformation and propaganda is deep down a conspiratorial rabbit hole that most people don't want to know about, and aren't hardly educated enough to understand.

Just how fucking insensible or dishonest can a troll like you be? Are you 'going for the record' of most insensible moron of the century or something? Can't you read anything without bringing your 'confirmation bias' interpretations/twisting to it? Raed what he said AGAIN, properly.

He just got through telling you that in some cases it is 'mainstream believers' who are acting like 'religious types' when mouthing their opinions without actually understanding what they are 'believing in' while 'trusting faithfully' to 'mainstream authority/source', even when proven FLAWED and/or 'incomprehensible'. Hence 'religious' types/beliefs in mainstream idiot socks.

To Forum at large. FYI and caution:

1) The "Uncle Ira" downrating bot now downrates within 30-seconds from a pre-programmed list, irrespective of posted factual/science content!

2) The Captain Stumpy troll and bot-operating criminal sympathizer and enabler, is now working on his own 'personality cult' macro program for further facilitating his/Uncle Ira's current automated forum-ratings-sabotaging activities.

The two trolls in question and their activities are the two greatest threat to this site's integrity and reputation, even more so than any 'alleged' cranks could ever be.

They pretend/defend 'mainstream' (even when flawed) as 'cover' for their own egoistic/criminal activities across the net. They have betrayed their hidden agendas from their own 'mouths' when admitting they stalk and sabotage 'posters' irrespective of science/factual content posted for objective discussion.

Anyone who fails to condemn such AUTOMATED trolling/sabotaging is complicit in internet fraud. Beware.

Yep. Their newest strategy is to upvote their victim with twenty sockpuppets accounts (actualy the only activity, which these guys manage well in their life), to report it as a violation of forum rules and to achieve its banning in this way. Very nice, indeed.

Hey, you haven't been downrated yet!

Seems like the Uncle Ira downrating-bot programmed list hasn't been updated to include DoieaS yet.

The troll-sock responsible for updating the bot-list is slow today!

What morons they are, if they are so insensible as to believe that no-one has 'twigged' to their automated antics.

Laissez les bons temps rouler Skippy That means welcome to the party in Cajun. That's pretty smart for the machine bot don't think it is?

Hey DoieaS, it seems the responsible "Uncle Ira" bot-operator has just seen how obvious his MO is, and is trying to UPrate you in an obvious ploy intended to fool rubes into thinking he is not operating a bot!

Did you see where he just INTERVENED directly to give you '5's. LOL

Poor twit Uncle Ira has just 'boxed himself in' and now cannot add your 'DoieaS' name to the bot's automatic-DOWNrating list for future posts from you.

What a maroon those "Uncle Ira" types are, if they cannot see how LAME their bots and their bot-games are for all to see clearly as day!

They are sad and characterless types who conceive and employ such anti-science-ethics tactics while pretending to be 'mainstream science' defenders/authority.

Too, too, sad, whoever is behind that "Uncle Ira" bot farce. Incompetent, too! Probably failed at everything else, and criminal fraud bot-based activity on the internet is all they have left to them. Pity.

@ Doiea-Skippy hooyeeei that ol Ira is one smart computer I guarantee. The way he gives the 5's and 1's for the karma points like he does. That's got to be the smartest computer I never did see especially since he speaks the coonass like the google talking bot. It is almost like he is doing it in what the scientist-Skippys call the real-time, huh?

Laissez les bons temps rouler Skippy That's Cajun for this Really-Skippy is the one big couyon and the big fun.

Poor, poor, "Uncle Ira" twit.

His bot is as 'smart' as its programmer/operator. LOL

And he is a dummy who still thinks he hasn't been busted.

So his bot is doomed to be 'manually over-ridden' more often in order to give the 'impression of choice' in rating.

What that idiot running his bot doesn't realize is, that the 'rating pattern' of 5-or-1, without any regard to posted content, is a DEAD GIVEAWAY, no matter what 'manual intervention' that twit makes. As also is the less-than-30-seconds rating post from its 'list'! LOL

What a maroon! Dead funny!

I see what you mean about more than I know—things were much simpler when I was in (82-86): nobody messes with anybody or we all toast the place a dozen times over in five quick minutes. There was no fighting & dying for King Oil & the Judean People's Front, and the People's Front of Judea, and -- I really shouldn't make light of it, although anything's better than more darkness…

Speaking of darkness, that reminds me:

@George: Because if your assertion about gravity being electromagnetism is correct then we'd expect the mass of charged particles in a cyclotron to increase as their orbital frequency (omega) increases. Strangely enough it seems to, but not by an amount proportional to the frequency omega, no. It's an amount proportional to 1 / sqrt(1 – v^2 / c^2). You know why that is, George?

@Protoplasmix Don't want to words in George's mouth but would that be something to do with the amoun tof energy increase and the amount of energy from that increase, available to do the 'extra' work one desires? I've deliberately used common/inaccurate terminology and no equations.

You know why that is, George?

@Protoplasmix
please share with us all. this is a great learning experience

Stop your driveling association and encouragement of known anti-science-ethics trolls and scammers like "uncle Ira' idiot. If he and you are not 'the same person', then you are being taken for a sucker by his internet-wide activities/socks manipulating weak-minded' and gullible types as 'cover' for his other 'hidden' activities you aren't even aware of.

save the link and have the Little Ira Skipette help you load it later... it will come in handy with other stuff... but you don't need the link zephir left. it is only the same rants he already got removed above and banned for, which is why he is back as DoieaS

you should talk to those who archived the page. Some of your private info is also linked in the page, which still has some of the java links to your profile here that was deleted (but still available with the links)

That "Uncle Ira" bot-operating idiot didn't realize I have been testing him and his bot's MO and 'response time' for its 'automated rating' from its programmed list of targeted poster names.

Now that silly Uncle Ira idiot operator has just manually intervened to re-program his bot's previously 'in-less-than-30-seconds' automatic rating 'response time' (after I explained above how that, and its either/or '5-or-1' rating pattern, were dead giveaways!).

So predictably he just now changed the 'response time' reaction/posting loop to more than the previous 'less-than-30-seconds' value.

I wonder how long it will take for that idiot to also program in a randomized '>1 & <5' range for its ratings value, so that it won't be so conspicuously bot-rating 'value' as before?

What a maroon, that Uncle Ira is. Transparent and incompetent to boot. Dumb as his bot program....dumber than his own shite. LOL

Judean People's Front, and the People's Front of Judea, and -- I really shouldn't make light of it ...

they are LEAVING controversial stuff and deleting pseudosceince, per the forum rules. when you taint your profile with pseudoscience, they delete the profile taking posts with it... you can plainly see that CANTDRIVE posts are still up (controversial) even though he posts KNOWN pseudoscience too, likely because the mod's do not know enough about physics to comprehend where some of his EI is impossible. stuff even YOU've downvoted, zeph

why don't you just stick to reddit if you like it so much?

You'd count your drooling idiocies as on-topic? Why am I not even a little bit surprised?

How many of you did they delete?

@Dr. Toad
NONE of the sock puppets from THIS list as far as I can tell :

rhsthjnty, tirahobis, pehawev, yefeb, bikuxem, retejap, xanuxul, debokolin, gipagajege, yejen, godivecu, befa, rovodeh, vudamezire, cuyajuyino, yolepugor, begalifowi, megayugo, juhodo, bibigak, fetem, sosamuca

You can try to calculate it.

@zephir
if reddit lets you post your DAW/AW then why do you annoy REAL science here?
go play there
or go find a forum that welcomes pseudoscience and conspiracy theory like you share

I've never downvoted legit science from you unless you include some stupid AW/dAW DEBUNKED SCIENCE which deserves it.
IF YOU CAN'T share LEGIT science from LEGIT resources, why are you posting here when you could be someone's HERO on another site?

but you're deeply bellow my level of discussion

@zephir
just what is it that this link supposed to represent to you?

someone would try to post the same at my site, you would be immediately deleted for ignorance and idiocy

that is because you don't like empirical data. I HAVE shared WHY AW was debunked, and if you go to ANY physics laboratory/site/learning forum/etc, you will find the SAME argument as well as the SAME point of view for the SAME reasons, with only ONE exception: YOUR SITE.
WHY is that?

The AWT was never disproved

WRONG AGAIN
http://exphy.uni-...2009.pdf

here is the empirical evidence to the 10^17 level

If you would take a look at my posts in their condensed state, I'm just discussing the physics at quite different level, than anyone of you here

@zephir
discussing debunked physics at any level is still discussing debunked physics
UNTIL you can bring EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE to the table proving that it DOES exist, as well as proving the historical EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE wrong, then all you are doing is talking in circles trying to convince those who are NOT literate in physics of your point of view...

IOW - it is just like RELIGION at that point.
you want power and accolades with notoriety or even infamy. You think this is what makes a person, and you believe so strongly that you are willing to lie, cheat and steal to get it.
THIS is why you created all those sock puppets. NOT because you have EVIDENCE
because I would NEVER downvote EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE... it is against MY code of honor! it is the source of MY belief.

THIS is your fallacy

This comment has been removed by a moderator.

This is how the posts at PO site should appear: no name calling, no down/upvoting, no desperate frog&mice personal battles - just links to publications and PHYSICS

@zephir
and I've done that till I was blue in the face, even getting told that I was an idiot by OTTO for doing so because you wouldn't listen.
NOW i have PROVEN AWT WRONG and DEBUNKED
PLEASE PROVIDE EMPIRICAL DATA FROM A RELIABLE SOURCE (NOT PSEUDOSCIENCE LINKS) THAT SHOWS WHERE I AM WRONG

you will not
you will use your sock puppets

you're feeling itself unhappy from your apparent incompetence to organize any better matter of fact discussion here

nope. I've provided logic and evidence
You've provided sock puppets and whiny claims of conspiracy
and you will continue because YOU HAVE NO EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT YOUR RELIGION CALLED AW/DAW

and now you will downvote/sock pupet the forum to death because they (the MODS) made you play by the rules... and you are mad about it

On the contrary, all my posts here were based on empirical data

@zephir
fallacious claim. no empirical evidence yet proving my article wrong

I know and understand perfectly, what the above study is about

as do others.
you are arguing against the MODS by attacking the MEMBERS
the MODS deleted all your comments because of the support your profile at that time was giving to AW/DAW, which, per the forum guidelines, is a known pseudoscience and debunked science

THerefore your profile was deleted, and all your posts with it
that meant ALL YOUR LEGITIMATE POSTS AS WELL
to which you reply by creating sock puppets and abusing the site with more cyber terrorism

THIS IS NOT REFUTABLE as you can SEE it happening in real time above.
and you can see it in your support of known pseudoscience in other areas (CD)
THAT is not debatable ... you are angry and lashing out
also not debatable is your continual pseudoscience posts and your inability to refute the EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE I posted

This comment has been removed by a moderator.

I'm not mad about anything - do you think, it's the first time I was deleted from some forum? My existence doesn't depend on it at all

@zephir
are you angry? it MUST be a yes. your TACTICS prove only that you've been hurt in some place, like your ego or your religious beliefs, to which you are lashing out now on the site. This is basic, VERY basic psychology here. look it up yourself...
not your existence, but the existence of your beliefs... when I post stuff like
http://ieeexplore...D5543217
the links prove your belief is wrong, and yet you cling to it. this is the BASIS of my study, to which you are responding in like manner, which was the REASON that you are being pushed like you are.
I've explained this to you before, and you STILL dont get it!

You are my least complicated and most prolific poster, Zeph, and I have TONS of your posts backing up my arguments
You-0

LOL. The development of voting bots is UncleIra game

@zephir
wait... yesterday it was MY game and I was making the bots according to you... which is it? better get your story straight...

just like the last time I posted the above links you said that "no magnetic" source could prove the aether wrong, to which I replied "read the link again"
what is it today, zeph?
why is the study wrong today?
what empirical evidence are you going to provide proving AW/DAW is correct?
there has been ZERO to date in conversations with you
OR you've linked to pseudoscience sites

where is the credible site with peer reviewed source like I have given you?

I await your empirical data from reliable peer reviewed sources

How many times I tried to explain it to just you here? Six-times? Seven-times?

@zephir
you've tried to explain it far more than seven times... the problem does NOT lie with your attempts to EXPLAIN it... but with your EVIDENCE.
TO WHICH I AGAIN REQUEST THAT YOU PROVIDE EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE PROVING MY LINKS/STUDIES WRONG

this has ALWAYS been the crux of my argument with you, zeph. ALWAYS. it has been YOU who takes it into a flame war/etc.

You? Oh, come on. You're too silly for being able to do it at the first sight

then why did you post (as otero) that it was me?
CD verified this in another post here http://phys.org/n...firstCmt

if I am too silly, then why are you feeling threatened by me?
especially so much as to create an army of sock puppets? THIS is the question you should ask yourself

doesn't violate the forum rules

as long as you keep to science, to which AW/DAW is NOT...

After all, "Captain Stumpy" is not your first, neither last account here as well - so where the problem is?

@zephir
first and only... just because YOU are banned from everywhere doesn't mean we all are. and I've never been on before. I read for about a year and a half before my first post, intermittently when I was at a library. no internet

many people here feel threatened with me instead

spoken like a true religious radical.
you are only a threat to those who do not know physics. ANYONE with an internet connection can research your posts and see that you have NO EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE for support

and I ask again: PLEASE PROVIDE EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE FROM LEGITIMATE PEER REVIEWED STUDIES REFUTING MY POSTS

and that, zephir, is why you are not a threat.
no empirical evidence. when you find some, then you will be more interesting, but still not a threat

I'm banned periodically from here

for violating FORUM rules, especially the ones about pseudoscience

NO CONSPIRACY THERE

LOL. The development of voting bots is UncleIra game, not mine one. He just plays with you, that's all.

Okayeeei Skippy. Name one voting bot I have made? Just one? Everyone and all of my votes comes from IRA.

So you are like the the Really-Skippy, the BIG OL LIAR BOT. Ira-Skippy is only one bot all by him self. You are 50 or 49 voters and posters. Don't the ciphers have any place in your science? Count them up and see for your self you stupid-Skippy.. You and the Really-LIAR-BOT-Skippy deserve each other.

This comment has been removed by a moderator.

@ Socratic-the OTHER-LIAR-BOT-Skippy. And one more another thing about the voting bots. You look up there at the top where you first brought out your voting bots. You see that ol Ira don't mind all the bad votes. I take him as a compliment that someone go to that much trouble to get my attention. It makes me feel that some one go to so much work to let me know I got my message out. It's the proof I am on the right track. And last this night you work so hard to try to make me feel bad but all it does is make me feel better. So keep on working and switching forward and backwards again because I really do like it.

Ha that joke is on you Skippy, it does the opposite of what you want, it makes me joie.

Everyone and all of my votes comes from IRA.

This is account, which your voting bots are using too, as Reality Check demonstrated. All other votes aren't indeed yours ones, but these ones of bots.

That couyon did not demonstrate nothing except he got the mental condition. This account is not a bot, it is the Ira-Skippy. He just mad because I wait around for him and give him the bad vote because I don't like him no. And it ain't no more complicated than that Cher.

Some time it is like the scientists say: The simple answer is usually the right answer. I don't like him. I know my vote he don't like. I wait until he show up and vote. And he let's me and the world that I was successful.

And it seem like my ONE vote gets a lot more done than your TWENTY votes, eh Cher?

I was in Germany during that time. Ramstein and Wurzburg. when they bombed Ramstein. They tried to blow up Wurzburg and a few other places too.

Wow, first I've heard of it. Had to check—the Red Army Faction, originated from student protests, thought they were fighting fascism/imperialism and the 'Auschwitz generation'. They were upset that former Nazis still held positions in government and business. I should clarify what I meant re 'nobody messes with anybody' as being a reference to the Cold War and mutual assured destruction.

as Reality Check demonstrated

@zephir
the ONLY thing RC demonstrated was that Ira was On-line at the time, and that is it. his post is designed to TROLL and start a flame war. that is it
he still has ZERO evidence of his BICEP2 claims!

Well, Zeph?
I AM WAITING
PLEASE PROVIDE EMPIRICAL PEER REVIEWED EVIDENCE FROM A LEGITIMATE SITE PROVING AW/DAW CORRECT AND MY POST WRONG

This is the game you and RC like to play
troll, bait, get the other side going. It is why I ignore RC!
proof he is a liar= NOTHING said about WHAT was wrong re:bicep2 until AFTER
he guessed & played the 50/50 game
it is all here already in black and white, INCLUDING his past bans from other sites
PROOF that he is the UBER TROLL he was labeled as

Name one voting bot I have made? Just one? Everyone and all of my votes comes from IRA

@Ira
don't let him get to you, Ira. He is baiting you with the intention of making you fly off the handle and start posting irrelevant nonsense: AKA TROLL

re 'nobody messes with anybody' as being a reference to the Cold War

@Protoplasmix
Yep. I got that. the only messing around was done via spying and terrorism...
which was the Red army faction problem. There was Red Hand out of Italy too, and a few local home grown anti as well as pro nazi youth factions running around too (still were in 1996 last time I left there-especially in Bremmerhaven)

Wow, first I've heard of it. Had to check

I keep forgetting about the news and how it was publicised (not well)... it was BIG news in the stars and stripes and AFRTS, militaryTV/News
I lost a friend in that bombing (not publicised)
lost one in the Wurzburg bombing too as collateral damage (hit by a car trying to evacuate a bldg that had a bomb in it)

grew up with terrorism

.........yep, and neither one of them can talk the language of the science of gravity & energy, that language is known as "differential equations", I seriously doubt either one could solve a problem involving a trigonometric function much less the language of Einstein's thesis on gravity.

@Ira
don't let him get to you, Ira. He is baiting you with the intention of making you fly off the handle and start posting irrelevant nonsense: AKA TROLL

Yeah I know you are right on that Captain-Skippy. He acts like the Really-Skippy and him discover some super smart thing about proving this or that and how they is showing to the world this thing they was able to figure out. Machine bot foolishment is all they discover there.

Like I told him, the easy answer is the only that make any sense.

I don't like Really-Skippy for the ugly names he called me. I wait until Really-Skippy show up. I give the Really-Skippy the bad vote because I know he don't like it. And Really-LIAR-BOT-Skippy comes back and tells me I got it right. If I'm on my toes and catch him quick it makes it better for me because then he starts with the BOT stuffs.

How hard is it to figure all that out? Makes me believe that Really-LIAR-BOT-Skippy is a lot more stupid than he hopes nobody will notice.

The PO admins managed to delete just the only six posts, which were on topic here during last three days

@zephir
no, they deleted the profile for violating the forum rules, like I told you, which then deleted your posts

And my post IS on topic
you made a claim with an imbedded link

you can read (and comment) here.

I PROVED THAT YOU POSTED KNOWN A PSEUDOSCIENCE LINK BY PROVIDING WITH A LEGITIMATE PEER REVIEWED PAPER SUPPORTING MY CONCLUSION THAT AW/DAW was PSEUDOSCIENCE and DEBUNKED TO A HIGH DEGREE OF ACCURACY

just like you wanted. You alluded to a scientific claim with your link
I chose to refute it with KNOWN SCIENCE
YOU STILL HAVE NOT PROVEN IT WRONG

It is YOUR request to make a scientific statement proving my point, to which I did, and I still request peer reviewed legitimate proof otherwise.

Sorry zeph, that is ON TOPIC BASED UPON THE ARGUMENTS OF YOUR POST

.........yep, and neither one of them can talk the language of the science of gravity & energy, that language is known as "differential equations", I seriously doubt either one could solve a problem involving a trigonometric function much less the language of Einstein's thesis on gravity.

Well Bennie-Skippy I been asking for months for you to show these different equations you have and how they work. I notice you leave out the semi circle universes on this one. You saving that for later or is that another theory.

Now's your chance to show us how you really know about these stuffs. We waiting on you to tell us how it works now.

...........I like Einstein find the above language incomprehensible. What did any of the above have to do with gravity? Okay, I get it, it's the language problem, yours versus the language of science.

the only six posts, which were on topic here during last three days

@DoieaS-zephir
you make the following claim

Irrelevant nonsense are all posts of Captain Stumpy and Uncle Ira in this thread

but forgot about your post 5 hours ago when you stated

The AWT was never disproved, only downvoted with scripted bots and senile trolls of the same IQ. This is indeed a difference.

I've given EMPIRICAL PROOF that it was debunked, not downvoted with scripted bots.
You made a claim that has been refuted with empirical data
you have also failed to provide ANY empirical data refuting this to date

neither one of them can talk the language of the science

@beni-haha
but Ira sure can spot NONSENSE
he spotted you

you've made claims in other threads with no empirical evidence backing you up, why are you so mad at anyone else then? prove yourself first;

http://dialogueso...nge.html

.............and I see you're still having a "language" problem, the "language of science" problem.

@Protoplasmix Don't want to words in George's mouth but would that be something to do with the amoun tof energy increase and the amount of energy from that increase, available to do the 'extra' work one desires? I've deliberately used common/inaccurate terminology and no equations.

Yeah, it kind of sounds like I put words in George's mouth when I said gravity isn't electromagnetism. Actually I put George's words in Newton's equation for the force of gravity. And I was wrong to say 'proportional'—as particle velocity increases, so does omega and the apparent mass of the particles. I should've said that the mass doesn't increase by a factor of omega, but rather increases by a factor of (1 – v^2 / c^2)^-1/2. To answer your question, that 'something' would be special relativity.

@Protoplasmix yes I knew that SR was involved because of the gamma term but I was mistaken about the general application. I was thinking about colliders and that sometimes as little as 30% of extra energy input is available for the experiment (depending on what is being collided etc.). Sorry about that.

I keep forgetting about the news and how it was publicised (not well)... it was BIG news in the stars and stripes and AFRTS, militaryTV/News

In the barracks, the only MTV was music, I recall their first broadcasts. At the hangar there were copies of TAC Attack and the base newspaper. I was never stationed overseas, never heard a peep about terrorism. Although I recall aircraft hijackings happened every now and then (all the more reason to feel betrayed on 9/11), but it wasn't reported as terrorism per se.

I lost a friend in that bombing (not publicised)
lost one in the Wurzburg bombing too as collateral damage (hit by a car trying to evacuate a bldg that had a bomb in it)

Sorry for your loss.

grew up with terrorism

Grew up in the Midwest, no one ever locked their door.. Bush said not to change how we live our lives or else the terrorists would win, and immediately thereafter circumvented the law of the land with a 'patriot [sic] act' - gave them their victory.
