Big try at gravity wheel

[Grimer]

Grimer, unless I have missed something your graph is not the result of an experiment.  As far as I know is an expression of an idea you postulate.  If you believe it describes or embodies conditions under which gravity is non-conservative, then let's talk about how that can be tested and see if we can come up with an accessible experiment.

Unless your ideas about gravity require magnets to make gravity non-conservative then that machine in the videos with the magnets is off topic.  If you are interested in that machine, then please find a suitable thread, or start one.

I see that deep grooves have been cut in your mind by too much specialised education and that once in one of those grooves the blinkers come on and you are quite incapable of climbing out of it. Can't imagine you ever making that James Burke programme, "Connections". It's called lateral thinking - ever heard of it? - thought not.


As far as I'm concerned nothing is off topic. I should get back to your speciality if I were you and stop clogging up this thread with useless posts.

Grimer, I really wish you would come back to topic and state conditions under which you believe gravity can be shown to be non-conservative.

Frank, have you gone off your meds again?

Mark E. has been asking you to support your claims, nothing more. It would be very useful if you did that.

YOU are the one making "useless posts", claims without evidence, and ad-hominem abusive attacks. You are the one bringing in extraneous and irrelevant material. You are the one who cannot defend his arguments with actual facts and checkable outside references.

I see you're still half asleep, Red. It's Grimer, not grimmer. Accuracy is important in science and search engines are a bit dim when it comes to spelling.

What a day!
I should have stayed in bed, since everybody got out on the wrong foot today
Looking forward to Sunset, happy hour !

Mark,


Let me explain something to you.


In the British Scientific Civil Service there are three grades of officer.


Scientific officers whose job it is to dream up new areas of research.


Experimental Officers whose job is to device experiments on those ideas
and carry them out.


Scientific Assistants who help the experimental officers with the donkey work and make the tea.


The rest of the service has a similar hierarchical division of Admin, Exec, and Clerical.


I don't do experiments, that's not my job. I don't devise them. I don't carry them out. And I would be absolutely useless if I did.


Like the centurion in the gospel I say to my E.O. go here and he goes, do this and he does it.


None of the experiments in my published papers were carried out by me. Design and implementation of equipment and procedures were undertaken by my E.O.s. They wouldn't let me touch anything in case I broke it.


So if you want to design and carry out an experiment based on my graph then be my guest. The idea is where my job begins and ends.
