          John,
         
        
          Don't believe everything everyone tells you; it depends on the
          reaction
         
        
          perspective.
         
        
          Hal is a very good scientist, and he is using known physics that is
         
        
          rigorous.  Known physics does not have overunity electrical power
          systems
         
        
          anywhere in it.  So known "good physics"  poses no
          threat or upset at all to
         
        
          the status quo, since it has nothing at all working that is of any
          size to
         
        
          suggest practical EM power systems can be quickly developed (in a few
          years
         
        
          instead of many decades).  The Casimir effect and the Lamb Shift
          pose no
         
        
          electrical power system threat whatsoever, and neither do the
          fluctuations
         
        
          of the active QM vacuum.  Hal doesn't meet resistance because he
          does not
         
        
          have a potentially threatening working-model overunity model system.
         
        
          Neither does he meet with continual assassination attempts for the
          same
         
        
          reason.  Neither is he involved in the intense "gaming"
          that provides most
         
        
          of the suppression.
         
        
          I also do not  meet resistance from "conventional QM vacuum
          fluctuations
         
        
          theory only" presentations to casual technical groups, just mild
          skepticism
         
        
          and , "Well, we know, yes, the vacuum is active, our physicists
          already know
         
        
          that and they tell us that, and maybe someone will be able to even
          extract
         
        
          some energy from it by 3000.  That's interesting, old chap, of
          course, but
         
        
          nothing to really get excited about, now is it?  Meanwhile, we
          have some oil
         
        
          wells to drill and some pipelines to lay, and we really must get on
          with
         
        
          building some more coal-fired power plants and some refineries."
         
         
        
          Cheers,
           
        Tom

          Re: from your Cheniere.org Selected Correspondence from 22 April,
         
        
          "We are continuing to try to get the necessary funding to get on
          with it.
         
        
          Biggest problem (at least in the U.S.) is this: It is considered as
         
        
          "disruptive technology". Seems few agencies and few
          investment groups with
         
        
          substantial commitment to the normal power industry stuff, are
          interested in
         
        
          anything that will "disrupt" the normal way of doing things!
          That includes
         
        
          the investment community, the scientific community, most of the
          government
         
        
          community, etc. ........ ,
         
        
          but I really did not realize the extent and depth of this outright
          phobia
         
        
          against "disruptive technology". Now we do. It's really
          something when a
         
        
          major investment group will spend about $150k for independent
          technical
         
        
          assessments and due diligence, and then back away because it is
          disruptive!"
         
        
          I've been troubled by this news ever since I heard it from you.
         
        
          Do you know that this directly contradicts what I heard from Hal
          Puthoff,
         
        
          saying, (to paraphrase) " Industry would welcome new energy
          sources as an
         
        
          aid to expanding business. I have not encountered any resistance or
         
        
          negativity when presenting new energy topics before  industry
          groups."
         
        
          What's up here?
