yes - I agree but was trying to put it in terms of the picoscopic since the time dimension is about to become available to us using Caltechs- Blacklights hydrinos or other "twisted" molecules. I wanted to break it down to the component level - those twisted molecules inside a polasma coil will have nuclei in normal space but their electrons are covalently bonded at an angle formed when the gas atoms were mixed between casimir plates (reduce dimensional confinement) this angle was fine inside the plates but upon exiting the covalent bond that formed while inside the plates now continue to hold the electrons at an angle that is suddenly into the virtual particle membrane (water surface in your analogy). these electrons will be pushing back hard against the virtual particles causing reaction to move matter without propellant AND give it leverage to slope away from the surrounding time frame(beneath your surface of water) out of normal space -they will appear to shrink like the reports of UFO's and can only be viewed from in front of the window where they submerged which might explain why chase aircraft see them fly off at very hi speed then lose them as they fly past the window -the speed might be accounted for by their direction -full 90 degrees and they could travel to another galaxy plus sidestep gravity which is a function of time(rate at which the kid is pushing the fish net thru the aquarium) . I just realized! if you travel at 90 degrees with both the drive I mentioned above and inertia damper I mentioned in another post we could actually have a star ship! the inertia damper is just ionized gas electrically spun into a whirlpool to form a saucer shaped dome above and below your craft it would slip thru the virtual particle with little inertia felt by occupants.
A claimed Scientific Breakthrough by BlackLight Power in Cranberry NJ was confirmed 10/24/08 by Rowan University but they were unable to explain the over unity results. While independently trying to reverse engineer this unexplained anomaly a patent filed in May by Caltech was uncovered that accounts for the results and is nothing less than astounding http://www.calphysics.org/Patent.html the patent describes a chemical method to rectify the vacumn fluctuations of the quantum field using casimir effect which is parallel metal plates at the nanoscopic scale.

This is the breakthrough discovery of the century and will solve both energy and global warming issue.
