how does the "gravity swing" differ essentially
from the radiometer, if both are just pendula?

how does merely asserting the error of Lorent's contraction,
which seems quite reasonable to those of us,
who believe that atoms have angular momentum,
mean that you have disproven special relativity?

Dear Rep. Lee (http://centeroncongress.org):
Californians are at fault, probably being User #1 of Gulf oil & gas
via pipelines ... all because of spill off of Santa Barbara in '68.
Now, A.G. Brown is determined not to drill, at all. (Also, the
offloading facilities in the Delta must have contributed greatly to
the problems with Katrina.)

Look; oil comes out of the ground, by itself, under pressure. Perhaps
it was a Natl.Geo. article on offshore driiling, showed that approx.
one XXValdez/year seeps (organically) from the bottom of the Gulf --
while "we" are pumping like crazy.

British P. is the #1 operator in the Gulf and Alaska; maybe, their USA
ops should be nationalized. The WSUrinal often likens Waxman's bill
to "cap&tax," but as far as I know (and as Rep. Waxman seemed to
admit, in our brief conversation) it is just "let the arbitrageurs and
daytrippers make as much money on our energy, as they can."

An expert on emmissions at a UCLA forum agreed that a small carbon tax
would achieve the same ends, but that "that is politically
impossible." The Urinal also noted-in-passing that a tax would work,
but that was in a guest editorial, promoting cap&trade ... the same as
the Kyoto Protocol, which Dubya'd have signed, if he knew that it was
just "free trade, free beer & freedom in the free market." And, it is
the same as Waxman's '91 cap&trade bill on NOX and SO2, viz acid rain.

So, how did it go, then, and who made the money?

Dear Spudnik: My (proposed) Gravity Swing Experiment has one simple
objective: To show that the SS plate will always swing TOWARD the
light source, due to gravitational attraction caused by photon
exchange, and not swing away from the light, as though the photons
apply a push force. The Nichols Radiometer wasted too much time,
money, and effort trying to be precise in answering "how much"...
without really understanding what they were measuring. Initial
experiments in science should answer ‘yes or no’, and let later
experiments answer how much, My X, Y, & Z interferometer answers YES
to the question: "Can Earth's velocity be detected by an Earth mounted
experiment?" Einstein himself said that his SR would be disproved if
any experiment ever did what mine surely does! — NoEinstein —

wow, you almost answered my question!

so, what is an XYZ interferometer, and
have you actually built & used it, and
why do you need rocks o'light in your theory,
taht says that the target moves toward the light?

thus&so:
there's a guy, a mister Griffith, an academic in theology,
who publishes books about the "9/11 controlled demo.'

I went to a talk he gave, got there late, and only caught
his last, two, bogus statements, which I challenged (hint:
one involves "box-cutters").

his next book removed these two items!

thus&so:
see if you can find the U.S. Reference Climate Network,
without googoling yourself. well, recently,
when I tried to find it with a search,
it was stated that it had somehow been abandoned,
even though it was nothing but a dataset of 28 continental stations.

thus&so:
wow, what a quibble. of course, if
you think in terms of blackbody absorption & radiation,
the distinction is rather slighter, and
NASA's qualifying terms are correcter.

thus&so:
cap&trade is as old as Waxman's '91 bill under HDubya, and
the editors of the WSUrinal just love it; however,
they refer to Waxman's current bill as "cap&tax,"
without ever explaining, why. (see my letter to Rep. Hamilton,
belowsville .-)

thus&so:
really; my city promotes all green stuff, in cooperation,
I suppose, with the WAND Corp., and also "global" warming.
they just had two authors of a book, _Smoke and Mirrors_,
at the library, who use the tobacco science baddies
to demonize the "global" warming deniers. they just had
an editorial in the LAtribcoTIMES, and they dyssed S. Fred Singer,
as per usual with mainstream GCMers -- which is mostly
what they are, not really AGWers.
look at Singer's retrospective metastudy on glaciers,
please; thank *you*.

thus&so:
Schroedinger's cat is dead;
long-live Schroedinger's cat!

thus&so:
I tried the 3D glasses, the other day, and it was really weird,
*without* closing one eye in the mirror; makes one's eye's look flat &
glassy.
(I assumed, UA wasn't using the red & blue kind.)

thus&so:
how does the "gravity swing" differ essentially
from the radiometer, if both are just pendula?
how does merely asserting the error of Lorent's contraction,
which seems quite reasonable to those of us,
who believe that atoms have angular momentum,
mean that you have disproven special relativity?

Your original argument wasn't coherent, then. As far as I could tell, you
thought it improper that almost all of the energy should go into heating,
not work.

We see the same thing in Newtonian mechanics for a light object in
inelastic collision with a heavy object. Qualitatively, the same type of
thing, most of the energy going into heating.

We're not attributing the photon momentum to the photon energy.

For a moving bullet, does the kinetic energy cause the momentum? Does the
momentum cause the kinetic energy? Do we attribute one to the other?

For the photon, consider a spin +1 photon. How much of its energy is "in"
the angular momentum?

Be specific: consider a 500nm photon, with hbar angular momentum. We can
write down 3 numbers: its energy, its momentum, and its angular momentum.
How are these 3 related to each other, showing appropriate concern for
angular momentum?

How about for a 5Hz photon? Do the same. Does this mean that a 5Hz photon
shouldn't have any momentum?

The ratios or values of energy, momentum, and angular momentum, as
commonly stated for photons, come straight out of classical
electromagnetic theory. Are these ratios or values wrong? Yes or no, no
handwaving, no waffle, just a straight answer.
