Falsified by repeated experiment. Now that you are reading literature again, would you like some references? Or do you only consider papers that support your point of view? [...]

I do no believe you have any degrees. You are well known as a liar. If you do, you must have bought them. You clearly do not have anywhere near the basic knowledge of science that anyone who successfully and legitimately earned a degree in science would have.
