Because, you're right: we don't have much "rope" ... or time ... left.

GOD HAS LEFT US WITH JUST ENOUGH ROPE TO HANG OURSELVES WITH.

Thane,

I was going to ask ... would an in-depth radio interview on "Coast" -- in front of several million receptive listeners, for a few hours [with the key internet-movies available "on demand" (it IS radio, after all    ] be helpful at this point?  Or, do you want to wait ... until the "buggy's" ready?

TO ME WAITING DOES ONLY TWO THINGS:
CREATES MORE BODY BAGS AND KEEPS ME FROM FULFILLING MY DUTIES AS A FATHER OF TWO YOUNG CHILDREN.

IF YOU CHOOSE TO DO AN INTERVIEW IT WOULD BE GREAT TO SEE IF NEIL YOUNG AND ULI KRUGER CAN COME ON AS WELL - AND ROUND UP ANYONE ELSE ON THIS THREAD WHO HAVE REPLICATED THIS EFFECT. I WOULD ALSO ASK DR. PETER LINDEMAN TO BE ON AS WELL?

On the "2-foot-long PVC experiment":
I must have missed THAT video! 

I DIDN'T POST A VIDEO BUT DID POST PHOTOS AND OBSERVATIONS.

Which, of course, brings up the entire "brass coupling ,versus the 3-inch steel insert" in your original machine:

What happened to THAT debate? 

IS a ferromagnetic material required or not (the PVC would indicate "not")?  So, what about the brass ...?       

I BELIEVE THAT THE BRASS COUPLING EXPERIMENT WHEN "MAGNETICLLY COUPLED" WITH THE STEEL BAR - RAISED THE INDUCTION MOTOR SPEED TO ABOVE THE CRITICAL THRESHOLD SPEED REQUIRED TO CAUSE ACCELERATION.

ORIGINAL YOUTUBE DEMO VIDEOS BEAR THIS OUT BECAUSE PART 2 IS ROTATING FASTER THAN PART 1 (READ THE "TACH METER" TO THE RIGHT) WHEN THE STEEL BAR IS INSERTED. WE KNOW FROM PART 5 THAT AN EXTERNALLY APPLIED DC MAGNETIC FIELD CAN INCREASE AN INDUCTION MOTOR'S RPM.

Since you still have the hollow brass coupling available on the original system, why not make up a RANGE of "slugs" which would fit inside that brass tube, and experiment with a variety of OTHER materials -- from other metals, to plastics ... and even various powders ... mercury, sodium ... etc. -- in an effort to see what IS "conducted" into the motor from the coils/magnets ...?

WE CAN GET THE ACCELERATION EFFECT WITH A PLEXIGLASS ROTOR - AND A MOTOR THAT IS 21/2 FEET AWAY FROM THE COILS USING PVC PIPE AS WELL AS NON FEROMAGNETIC STAINLESS STEAL ROD. THAT IS SIMPLY ENOUGH FOR ME.

THE HOLLOW BRASS COUPLER IS NOW A MUSEUM PIECE.

Glad to hear your plan on the "dune buggy demo."  It sounds reasonable and workable.  If it really can "extend" the range, it will make a helluva public splash in THESE crucial times.

QUASIMODO IS STARTING ON THE DUNE BUGGY GENERATOR TODAY I BELIEVE.

Wow! It's really cool to see Mr. Hoagland posting here!

I sure hope he will be able to setup an interview for you on CoastToCoast! He's not kidding when he says it has MILLIONS of listeners, me being one of them!

AARON,

CAN YOU PREPARE 3 SKILL TESTING QUESTIONS FOR RCH TO MAKE SURE IT IS REALLY HIM AND NOT "RCH - PB" IN DISGUISE?
