Magnetic braking of magnets sliding along a sloped aluminum surface

[WilbyInebriated]

Hmmm--an incorrect assumption, and we all know what happens when you "assume" something. I have shown this phenomenon to several people who have demonstrated their creativity, imagination and logical ability over and over again, and they are amazed by it. So at least some creative imaginatory clear thinkers, who have played with magnets a lot haven't noticed it before.
Therefore, as so often seems to happen, you are wrong, again.

If it's such an ordinary thing, why is it capturing the imagination of those who have them?

And if you've known about it all along, surely you've documented your prior knowledge with a video, a post on a forum somewhere, even a lab notebook page. Somewhere. Surely.

as i said, anyone, IF they have played around with magnets, even a little, will stumble on this (not new) phenom.

your allegedly "creative, imaginative and logical" friends that didn't put two and two together and do a little more than the 'eddy brake' experiment (ie: lets see what happens when we try this, or this, or that) aren't very creative, imaginative or logical after all...
if they were they would have stumbled on this long ago.
therefore, as so often seems to happen, you are wrong, again.
Q.E.D.

why is it capturing the attention ( not imagination ) of these friends of yours that aren't as creative, imaginative or logical as you/they think they are? that's pretty easy, because they are not as creative, imaginative or logical as you/they think they are. we already covered this...

oh there's no video.  damn, well i guess no one has done it then...   
is that irony or sarcasm that the queen of faked videos is asking for a video? you're joking. surely.

@tk what's with the rotation video? that's more old news you know...
but go on with your bad self. from your vid clip: "should i repeat it?" yeah yeah, you better. this is big news!!


oh goody, look there's a video from 2006... well that's that then, someone HAS done this before, there is video proof even.

the rotation is obvious. no audio, sorry. the prof. demonstrating it isn't quite as interested in hearing himself talk as you are tk. he keeps messing with the magnet, but the rotation is there none the less.

so again, if you can't put two and two together and deduce what comes next or even be bothered to observe the experiment when shown to you in college, you aren't as creative, imaginative, deductive or logical as you think you are.

p.s. still waiting for your debunking of stiffler. you got 50 years of experience and scorched fingertips to boot according to your own claims, should be a walk in the park for you to show how stiffler is conning us all. it sure wouldn't cost you $900 and 80 hours of your time like this magnet stuff. oh yeah that's right your concentrating on the, how did you say it to me? "concentrating on the easy stuff: gravity wheels, magnet motors, and buoyancy drives (and you can see how hard it is even with these obvious losers)"
that's funny, that you like playing with these "obvious losers", so nice of you to say that about them too.

Yep, that's what I said all right.
And anybody can show you Meissner effect levitation and show the magnet rotating. Not too many have seen it spontaneously START rotating like in my video. I did not discover the effect; you will see that I cited references to peer-reviewed articles, when you learn to read. You r video is CLEARLY not demonstrating the effect I am showing and the maker of the video CLEARLY doesn't even know about it.
Stiffler is afraid of me, he would ban me instantly and you know it. Besides, I'm not interested. Now go away, this place was a lot more pleasant while you were gone.

Didn't we have this flame war before? But you went away. Were you temporarily banned, or something? Because you cannot seem to discuss the issues, you just want to flame and hijack theads. Do you have something to contribute besides a bad odor?

And you said jack.
