Of course this won't stop the conspiracy theorists (whom you seem to be one of) from making allegations of foul play from now to eternity.

You go and keep thinking that.
If you say so Mr. Centrifuge. Just don't use your mystical electromagnetism powers on me.
You can shove your straw man directly up your ass.

You aren't even close to the mark but thanks for coming out.
LOL, what part of your position did I twist, attack and present back to you? If you're going to invoke the name of a fallacy, at least get it right.

Being told you're not even close to the mark by a person who gets visibly pissed when people don't believe in deathrays and governments that come in the middle of the night and snatch hapless inventors...I think I should be relieved. I'll settle for being amused. 😀

You are still trying to create a straw man and think its funny.

That's because you are an immature POS who thinks its fun to thread crap.

I don't even fall into the category you try to stick me in but hey whatever moronic logic makes you happy is OK with me. Keep going.

I see you're not even to try and learn the definition of a straw man fallacy. Ah well, I tried.

It is funny. You're ready to hand out a Nobel prize to a guy who's quite obviously just glued together a bunch of stuff lying around his basement. Then you go and get incredibly childish and upset at RabidMongoose who makes a completely legitimate point about the gov't-whisk-away-the-genius scenario being as plausible as alien abductions. Sorry, but that has definite elements of hilarity.

Of course it is. That's because you are stupid.

You let me know when you are able to read. I'll start to take you seriously cause you are so blind to what you are saying you completely missed what I wrote into the very first post.

Freaking moron.

lol...there you go again with the PMS posts. You sure you want to revisit that first post of yours?

If proven 100% accurate with government controled testing then we have just seen an invention equal to that of smashing the atom or electricity.

The safety concerns cannot be understated. This thing could down an airliner and no one would know anything about it. Thankfully there's a very safe vault in this town in a military base.
WE MUST PROTECT THIS HOUSE!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Despite the ridiculous nature of testing the bear suit, the physics used to design it are pretty remarkable. It's pretty clear to me that this guy has at least some background in physics and a pretty creative mind. Put the two together and you never know what will come out. Of course, only someone who had taken a high school physics class would recognize that physics deals with mechanics, optics, and electrical phenomena.
 
This is like a time-warp thread or something. Another Aelius-turns-into-a-useless-douche thread whenever someone doesn't buy his conspiracies. How touching!

The bear suit is awesome and if I had to go after a big bear (or rush limbaugh's lard ass) I wouldn't leave home without it!
Granted, I could see it happening but I don't see any evidence.
There are so many claims to things I have heard over the years until I see it in action I reserve the right to withhold my belief for the time being.
At least some pics showing it seeing through walls or something geez..

I can photoshop you a picture of me looking through a wall. That really wouldn't prove anything. I'm not saying I believe it or not, but it's interesting at least.

Big Deal, I bought a pair off glasses from an ad on the back of a Bazzoka Bubble Gum Wrapper that do that.

Yeah, but those glasses don't have seven lasers, do they??
 
this does seem like a completely legit invention, what with all the independent peer reviews of the device. Clearly this is the most impressive device ever created.
 
His refrence to ultra wideband technology makes no since. UWB is the use of extremely high frequency pulses in time that result in a very wide band in frequency that is resistant to narrow band signals. It has nothing to do with the application that he proposes. Its not like UWB would penetrate walls because it would actually act just the oppositie by being less capable of penetrating walls. So assuming he has some other definition of UWB this doesn't seem that impressive to me. We can allready look through people its called and xray machine or an MRI. This is just doing it to a wall, that's not exactly space age technology. If he had done it in a way that was passive and not potential dangerous then that would be news, but he didn't.

*slap* Shut up man, don't you know there's a CENTRIFUGE at work here?

Not being an expert: The difference between this and X-rays would be that X-rays require a receptor on the other side of the object being X-rayed. You would then "see" the inner parts of the X-rayed object by looking at the receptor.

This guy's claim is more like Radar, where the Projector of the stuff is also the Receptor, making it much more useful as no Triangulation(wrong term, since only 2 points are required for an X-ray) type setup is required.

Whether this guy has accomplished this or not, who knows, but I don't doubt that such a technology won't be developed eventually.

Perhaps, I just get very skeptical when they start throwing out terms like UWB that don't apply appropriately here. It sounds too muck like scifi movies where someone with little actual scientific knowledge is glueing some tech terms together they heard to make up a story.

Maybe he went to such low wavelengths that the waves just sneak through the wall. 😉
 
omg guys, he had 3 dreams that told him what to do. So he contacted someone at MIT (btw just being at MIT does not in itself mean anything) and he sent him something on a greyhound bus and with absolutely no scientific background, he created something that a mega-billion corporation could not hope to accomplish in that amount of time. I mean sure there is a chance it is true, but there is also a chance that all the oxygen molecules in my room will decide to go in one corner of my room and I will asphyxiate.

Lets face it, unlike a hundred years ago, scientific breakthroughs are not done by individuals. I mean sure some guy will invent velcro now and then but nothing that changes the face of science. Such things take years of study and large amounts of funding.

In my mind, the most likely explanation is still the best explanation, this is a hoax.

And you are a trolling moron who does nothing but follows me around in the whole 2 or 3 threads I have ever started.

Do yourself a favor and, unless you got some sort of valid argument, jump off a cliff with the rest of the naive sheep.
