I am an electrical engineer and computer programmer specializing in
embedded systems
( devices which have a computer embedded inside but
aren't computers per se, e.g. cell phones, car dashboards, microwave
ovens etc. ).
I graduated with an MEE degree from Cornell University,
Ithaca New York.
I like to design complete products: packaging, analog and digital
hardware,
software, documentation, and manufacturing.
I now live in Scottsdale Arizona US ( Phoenix ).
Other current Interests and research subjects:
Free
Energy, i.e. power sources that don't use any significant fuel
( other than perhaps a tiny bit of mass itself
(E=MC˛) ).
Let's be disruptive and do away with the petroleum-industrial complex
and embrace clean abundant free energy for all!
While we're at it, let's promote rationality in the
pharma-medical-inductrial complex and military-industrial complex also,
and
open up the black projects to release all that wonderful technology
that is being suppressed.
I've been involved with the small Irish company Steorn Ltd. since their
first announcement of magnetic free energy devices
several years ago, am a member of their "Steorn Knowledge Development
Base" ( SKDB )
and been doing related experiments since then. http://www.steorn.com/ Engineer verifies effect.
I'm looking forward to putting their free energy motors into
my Mosquito helicopter,
in my cars and powering my home with one.
One of my permanent magnet Steorn ORBO test fixtures:
Steorn's claimed power density of 4.5 horsepower per pound of
weight
( based on their comparison to lithium ion batteries ) is
very respectable.
Eventually, all devices will have self contained power sources and
there will no longer need for an electrical grid at all.
Previously I did many experiments with the Pons-Fleischmann's cold
fusion cells. Here's a picture of my main heavy
water-palladium-platinum
closed cell with hydrocap recombiner inside:

Alternative
physics: Dewey B. Larson's "Reciprocal System",
a unified theory of everything that can calculate physical constants
and properties from basic principles
alone!
I was president for two years of the "International Society of Unified
Science",
a group promoting the "Reciprocal System" of physics.
Some background:
This is the only paper that explains what a magnetic field really is,
and also contains a remarkable new look
at dimensional analysis: The
Dimensions of Motion
Remote
Viewing, project "Star Gate" and Metaphysics:
Long before it was fashionable, I've been
associating with people from the military's "Star Gate" remote viewing
program,
and I can assure you that remote viewing (RV) is effective. RV changes
one's view of physical reality and suggests different
much more efficient approaches to engineering, design and testing among
many other things.
I'm a member of the "International Remote Viewing Association": http://irva.org/
There's
no need for security screening at airports or any other places at all,
just concentrate on the events or locations as designated by
remote viewers in advance!
A wonderfully recursive double Star Trek SG episode that should make
you think, and is actually true in some ways:
Spend just a little time zooming and panning on NASA and other images
from solar system objects and you'll find many anomalies!
You can see plenty of evidence of civilizations and life on
many solar system bodies.
This anomaly looks like a giant "Dune" like serpent emerging from a
half-pipe on the surface of Callisto, where it's very very cold:
Alternatively, look at these turtle like creatures on Venus, where it's
very very hot and rains sulfuric acid!:
The
wonderful complexity of Led Zeppelin and magnificent melodic and
complex symphonies of Gustav Mahler are two of my favorites.
I hear some similarities between them -- can you?

building a Mosquito ultralight helicopter ( for other builders
primarily ).
October 20, 2006 My parents and one brother visited. My father took
these pictures of my hovering practice.
I still have less than one hour in this helicopter. I'd still
like to be able to fly without the roll bar, which I did to
some extent. I built some 1 pound toe weights, as it seems
the helicopter is a bit tail heavy. I'll try these soon.
More hover practice May 14, 2006
The outside air temperature was 100oF ( 38 C. ). The engine ran quite
cool and there was plenty of power.
I weigh 175 lb ( 80 Kg ), with a 12 lb ( 5.4 Kg bar on the back and a 4
lb (1.8 Kg) weight on the front toe. )
Work in progress as of November 16, 2005.
The tail rotor and main rotor are installed.
The tail rotor is complete and adjusted.
The main rotor is ready for lead-lag adjustment, balancing,
and tracking.
Trailer and blade support solutions.
Work in progress as of April 15, 2006.
I constructed a highly customized trailer for the open cockpit Mosquito
based on a Harbor Freight Tools foldable trailer Model 90154 (about
US$300), Model 41005 trailer jack,
Model 92860 winch, 4x8' 3/4 Inch plywood, lots of 3/8 bolts and others,
3/4" jack screw rod,8 foot
2x6's and 2x4's and iron angle bracket material. Here are some
pictures:
The blade is supported by 4" id ABS pipe with cutouts. Note a small
aluminum member bolted to the hub
for the front ABS pipe's fore-aft constraint. It is mounted on the
bottom on top of the front toe pad.
The rear ABS pipe merely clips to the tail boom. The blade rotation is
constrained with a steel reinforced
2x4 wood block above the
small drive sprocket, as shown below.
See the removable PVC pipe stick clip to hold the cyclic centered.
I added the fuel pump, as I had problems with air bubbles in the fuel
filter.
I added a battery voltmeter to check if it needs charging.
I added a bicycle brake lever to open the "chokes", which are really
opening for more fuel
to flow to the engine. They don't actually restrict the intake airflow.
My custom designed ABS portable wheels (4.5 pounds for both);
aluminum "glove box" ( 4.5 pounds );
and frame to carry two 2 1/2 gallon "Jerry cans" (4.5 pounds) are
emphasized
here.
This entire assembly just clips to the airframe, there is no
modification
whatsoever
to the Mosquito airframe. Construction progress July 22, 2004
