Magnet Myths and Misconceptions

[sparks]

  Tesla didn't run up against dogma he ran up against the old world order that controls money.  The old world order in it's attempt to keep us killing each other and slaving away for the insanely greedy power freaks don't take kindly to anything that would promote world cooperation.  Imagine a waterfall in Africa powering a Tesla transmitter to heat homes in New England.  Or a geothermal hot spring in Iceland providing air conditioning in Iraq.   Or a ocean thermal energy system in Hawaii providing power to a fertilizer producer in China.  The interdependence of the nations would naturally stimulate cooperation and moves away from the territorial rape of one region by people from another.
Oh well sorry for getting this thread off topic.

Tinman that clearly is not true.  I have many times asked you questions to get you to clarify what you have attempted to say.  Where I have objected is where you have declared things that are not true.  A pertinent example is your repeated misapplication of magnetic lines of force in diagrams.  You employ a convention where those lines and their meaning is your own and declare that lines of force as used by the rest of the world are wrong because they don't follow your redefinition.  You have declared that currently understood science fails to understand magnets as well as you claim to understand them, when what is going on is that you misunderstand current science.  You have stubbornly rebuffed nearly all attempts to gently reconcile the real observations you make with your misconceptions about what science tells you that you should be observing.  It is a bit like a person who visits a country where the visitor does not know the language and declares that the natives are all idiots, and anyone who takes the time to try to translate are difficult because they ask the visitor to be specific.

I am 1000km from my computor atm, and simply cannot show you why I feel the way I do in regards to my last posted diagram, and the events that took place after that. When I get back home, I will show you and MH what I seen take place.I will also try to explain to the best of my ability as to how and why I see the figure 8 field pattern.

My appologies to you for being a little more abrupt than I should have been

Thats just the forum's resident arse kisser to the dogma drones EMJ.

Just pretend he's not there...like he isn't intellectually.

As a side note...

Who's the only scientist erased from the history books ?

Once you have the answer, you need not ask why.

I agree Cap-Z-ro! Edison only bought in the Dogma because he wanted to sell his inferior DC Service. Electrocuting Animals to try to prove his DC Service was better!


Dogma Definition:

Dogma is a principle or set of principles laid down by an authority as incontrovertibly true. It serves as part of the primary basis of an ideology or belief system, and it cannot be changed or discarded

The irony is that now it is low frequency AC distribution that is inferior, but so costly to replace that it will be with us for a long time.  What they could not do in the time of Tesla and Edison was up convert and down convert DC.  With AC that's as simple as using a transformer.  But if you want to transmit power over long distances efficiently, then since the 1950's the way to do that has been high voltage DC.  High voltage DC does not:  Suffer parasitic induction losses to the ground, or Require frequency synchronization, or Require power factor management.  High voltage DC does have one big problem:  Once a DC arc starts it is hell to stop it.

That's pretty funny, since Bill is using low-power Joule Thiefs for light all over his home, and using discarded batteries that people think are dead to run them. If anyone is _not_ going to be in the dark, it will be Bill!

Tesla is credited for the first electrical "AND" logic gate circuitry, used in his remote-controlled "Teleautomon" boat model, Patent # 613,809, in 1898. He was a genius inventor but a lousy businessman, and the only "dogma" that he faced came from shrewder businessmen who used him and his inventions for their own profit.  You can argue that Tesla was the Father of the Modern Digital Computer because of this invention, but that would be a pretty silly argument.

WOW - Bill good one, maybe some constructive chat about that?

Thanks TK for shedding light on something that is really surprising!
