The fate of Harold Aspden

[CompuTutor]

For seeing the sunshine, don't look at obscurantism.

Are you serious, dude, wow

FFS, the guy has a stroke and you want to grandstand. You really are a low life pompous git.

Insults don't change anything about crackpots verbiage whose uselessness and void is obviously not detected by unskilled people.
Those who measure the truth of theories with the sickness of their authors, are simply absolute jerks.

Are you serious, dude, wow

No confirmed observation of anomalies, no prediction of new facts, no experiments that work.
It looks like science, it has words from science, it has the taste of science, but it's not science.

It is stated:
"Harold Aspden is a brilliant theoretical physicist, electrical engineer and inventor".
Unfortunately his theory is not supported by a single one duplicable working experiment, with expected results differing from what conventional science predicts.
If you have experimented like me his resonant double-capacitor or tri-axial capacitor, you must have come to the conclusion that he is a crackpot. Like Bearden: not physics but overdone verbiage in fuzzy layman terms, no accuracy, no quantified fact, nothing to observe.

I also have to agree here. Anyone who publicly formulates a theory or design should have a working model to back his claims up. Why can't guys like Bearden, Aspden and Lindemann display a simple working model of their "overunity" theories? They claim to have impressive academic credentials, and years of study and experience in the field, but somehow fail to deliver the goods.
If these guys are really who they claim to be, where's the proof? If a guy can write a book and get it published, he can certainly build a small working model of his theories. Bearden claims the MEG works, but that's BS. I've built a lot of MEGS and none of them work. The MEG is a red herring. I haven't heard of anyone else getting one to work either, except Nauden, which I find highly suspicious.
I've also tried to get Aspden's theories to work without any success. These guys are all talk and no substance. If you doubt me try and get one of their theories to actually work.
If I ever claim that something works you can be damn sure I've built and tested it first. I'll have pictures, diagrams or a video, and a full explanation of exactly what I've done. I will also be happy to answer questions or to assist anyone who wants to try and replicate my claims. That's how it should be. Anything less is unacceptable.
We should never be reluctant to demand proof of any claim.

demanding makes you sounds a bit like an impetuous child, requesting would be more appropriate. that being said, there are far too few people even requesting proof of lindemann, bearden, etc. and that is why they are still in business and will continue to be...
