Magnet Myths and Misconceptions

[tinman]

@Chris


I always liked Walter Lewins video on non-intuitive, non-conservative fields. It is a peculiar thing that the crowd always refers to the most successful people as creative, intuitive and open minded. Yet we see so many people overly preoccupied with conformity, normalcy and the pursuit of mediocrity. It is strange that the people we admire could never be accused of such things.


You know I have haunted these forums for a while and my reasons were mostly academic relating to psychology. The fact that we may create our own walls which confine our thought to those of the crowd mentality. The crowd who watch others succeed then try to drag them down to their level of thinking. The best book I ever read was by Gustav Le Bon, The crowd a study of the popular mind... you should read it if you have a chance as it will explain many things.


Let those running in circles do so, let them eat cake, because the chance that they may help you on your journey is very small. There is no easy way in fact it is very hard because there is always that little voice in the back of our mind telling us to conform. I will tell you what, we will have a private chat and I will tell you what the magnetic field is, not what it does or appears to be or do but what it is fundamentally. It is amazing that something so simple such as the field could cause so much confusion and fear. I mean when I ask people what it is I see fear in their eyes which is unfortunate. We should never be afraid of what we do not know, we should embrace it because the unknown is our future isn't it?.

AC - Again, your philosophy is very admirable! Your common-sense approach is also as admirable.

Intuition may not settle debate, facts may not settle debate, but it certainly makes things work when one is on the bench working on something new!

Let those running in circles do so, let them eat cake, because the chance that they may help you on your journey is very small.

You are right! Its time to leave for a journey to the future and leave those stuck in the past there!

Kind Regards

What I implied?  What a joke.  You have stated that "modern physics" (whatever that means to you) refutes what MileHigh and MarkE are saying...then you mention Walter Lewin as an example.  So it was YOU that expressed/implied that Dr. Lewin backed up your position.

I am sorry if you got caught in your little attempt to deceive.  Possibly you figured that no one here has heard of Dr. Lewin, and that you could get away with it.

Well, it didn't work out so well for you now did it?

Busted.

Carry on,

Bill - You just keep believing what you want! Anyone and everyone can go back and read the posts!

It is you that has Lied and Implied. Busted!

I think, you think, you're quite smart, you're not! You've become a Fool, just like MarkE, your words and actions have proven that!

Have a nice day ;O)

You are just unhappy that good old Dr. Lewin refutes what you are trying to say here.  Is he a fool then?  He was your example of "Modern Physics" right?  He refuted you so, I am a fool, MarkE is a fool,  you seem to be surrounded by fools then.

Try looking in the mirror.  You just might learn something.

Chris:

There is a backdrop to your narrative.  Everybody on the site knows that some people on here really know their stuff.  MarkE is one of them.  There are some very experienced and knowledgeable people around here.  Some of them are in the stratosphere.

Far be it from me to ask anyone to do an experiment, but how about you do an experiment that you think demonstrates something new?  The rhetoric is dysfunctional at this point so how about an experiment instead?

At this point for me most of your links now are to legit sources and you are blindly thinking that they are backing up your arguments when in fact hey are refuting your arguments.  You need to start eating Spice.
