I'm sure it has been tried but possibly a "getter"? some material that is extremely attracted to the suphur? used as a filter, which may or may not be cleanable / reusable depending on what the material is and how it is used.

>What's absurd is knowing NOTHING about it and still claiming it would work.

yup

what I do know is how it might be possible. What I've seen in my career is that Tesla's ideas have been proven correct over time. I do believe his claims and have shown how they might possibly work to provide "free energy". What I'm not sure of, and I have seen only hints of Tesla's worry over the possiblitiy of run-away events. The system described has a "positive feedback" problem.

you gotz any idea how a poor fag like me can come up with the money to build it and I'll spit the fame with you

as I stated, during Tesla's lifetime the modes of propagation down a waveguide for EM was worked out... Tesla did not use the term as far as I'm aware.

>That guy is pulling words out of his ass.
no "That guy" is parroting what he's been taught. If you have sufficient EE knowledge I can explain how Tesla's "free" energy works. It is not free as in free beer because it does come from somewhere. It comes from the enormous DC potential between the ionosphere and the earth (100v/m) and a peculiar property that is used in a TWT amplifier. By running a high voltage beam down the center of a helical coil a small signal injected at one end of the coil is greatly amplified. Tesla's wardenclyffe device would have created an non-glow plasma between his earth station and the ionospere, causing a great flow of DC charge through the center of his coil to earth. Once this DC flow begins the "signal" Tesla had injected into the coil to begin the process is greatly amplified. This means that the power that could be received and used at remote locations would be far greater than the amount of power needed to begin the action. Tesla had noticed the phenomena at Colorado springs during his experiments there.
At the time the understandings of EM were not as advanced as today. Many effects Tesla saw can only be explained by longitudinal waves which "everybody" knows don't happen with EM... unless you are talking about action in a waveguide. Today we know much, much more about energy propigation down a waveguide. Tesla was playing with a waveguide we now call the "Schumann cavity"

what predictions did Tesla make that you believe are wrong?

>Why cant we see these photon's like we see other photons?

it's because they don't exist. These "force carriers" are just illusions produced by misapplied maths. Some of the current theoretical constructs will go away just as phlogiston theory of combustion did.

1.6L of 2M solution...
solution holds 3.2M
18M reagent
3.2 / 18 = .178
total = 1.6
x + .178 =1.6
x = 1.422

so 1,422 ml of water + 178 ml of 18M acid = 1.6L of 2M reagent

>how could there be cherenkov radiation in vacuum?

What vacuum? did you read how the PIT works? you do understand that a plasma is NOT a vacuum? The experiment is done in a vacuum chamber but the area around the thruster is "polluted" with free ions for starters and the plasma itself will exhibit Cherenkov radiation when you give it a kick like the PIT does.

>>6302607
yes

this is a better representation

it is a very interesting phenomena OP. Very rare so it has not been widely studied. Many theories, not much evidence.

Since it falls under the realm of "pseudo science" you probably won't get much decent conversation here.

I've read about ball lightning for many years, I think it's worth investigating. Some of the recent plasma physics research may have some clues. I wish the article you linked to didn't cost bux, I'd read it if I could find it for free, but...

What's unexplained?

The only "weirdness" is the fact that it floats "upright". Quite easily explained, Many tree root systems enclose and capture large rocks. This is a case where the root system happened to capture one or more good sized rocks so completely that even after the surrounding dirt had washed away the rocks were still captured by the roots and thus provide "ballast weight" to keep the tree trunk upright.

>It's unbelievable how propagandized you guys are

I have to agree with you anon. Critical thinking seems to be rare even in the so called "red pilled".

All you have to do is do a google search on "all the rats left untreated" and follow that rabbit hole to the present day situation and you will understand why Dr Sanjay Gupta said "“We have been terribly and systematically misled for nearly 70 years in the United States, and I apologize for my own role in that ... "

Cannabis is no more dangerous than sugar, salt, or a multitude of other common household items. People who stand up and shout about marijuana's dangers need to be questioned about their motives and lack of education.

yup. breathing, eating, just plain living all have effects, side-effects, repercussions, ramifications and complications. Trying to sort the fact from fiction is a full time job

(6) Cannabinoids in the treatment of cancer
Basic info

Published in: Cancer Letters (November 2009)

http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0304383509002523

University of Otago (New Zealand)

Quotes
“Cannabinoids, the active components of the hemp plant Cannabis sativa, along with their endogenous counterparts and synthetic derivatives, have elicited anti-cancer effects in many different in vitro and in vivomodels of cancer. While the various cannabinoids have been examined in a variety of cancer models, recent studies have focused on the role of cannabinoid receptor agonists (both CB1 and CB2) in the treatment of estrogen receptor-negative breast cancer.”
Meaning
Cannabinoids have been shown to have anti-cancer effects in many different experiments.

Quotes
“Cannabinoids-endocannabinoids are anti-inflammatory, anti-proliferative, anti-invasive, anti-metastatic and pro-apoptotic in most cancers, in vitro and in vivo in animals. They signal [...] to induce cell cycle arrest, autophagy, apoptosis and tumour inhibition.”
“Evidence in vivo and in vitro shows EPA and DHA can form endocannabinoids that: (i) are ligands for CB1/2 receptors and possibly TRPV-1, (ii) have non-receptor mediated bioactivity, (iii) induce cell cycle arrest, (iii) increase autophagy and apoptosis, and (iv) augment chemotherapeutic actions in vitro.”
Meaning
Cannabinoids not only reduce the spread and growth of cancer cells but also kill cancerous cells. Cannabinoids stop cancer cells from continuing their usual cycle, tell them to eat each other, tell them to kill themselves, and generally reduce the spread of tumors.

(3) Cannabinoids in intestinal inflammation and cancer

Published in: Pharmacological Research (August 2009)

University of Naples Federico II (Italy)

Quotes
“Studies on epithelial cells have shown that cannabinoids exert antiproliferative, antimetastatic and apoptotic effects as well as reducing cytokine release and promoting wound healing. In vivo, cannabinoids – via direct or indirect activation of CB1 and/or CB2 receptors – exert protective effects in well-established models of intestinal inflammation and colon cancer.”
Meaning
Cannabinoids reduce the spread of cancer cells, disrupt these cells’ metastasis, make cancer cells kill themselves (apoptosis), promote the healing of wounds, and protect the body from inflammation and cancer.

Quotes
“When treated with WIN55,212-2 (non-selective), ACEA (CBr1-selective) or AM1241 (CBr2-selective) agonists in vitro, oral cancer cell proliferation was significantly attenuated in a dose-dependent manner. In vivo, systemic administration (0.013 M) of WIN55,212-2, ACEA, or AM1241 significantly attenuated cancer-induced mechanical allodynia. Tumor growth was also significantly attenuated with systemic AM1241 administration. Our findings suggest a direct role for cannabinoid mechanisms in oral cancer pain and proliferation. The systemic administration of cannabinoid receptor agonists may have important therapeutic implications wherein cannabinoid receptor agonists may reduce morbidity and mortality of oral cancer.”
Meaning
Cannabinoids significantly reduce the spread and growth of oral cancer cells.
