The Camelot and Avalon Projects by Bill Ryan
Camelot and Avalon Projects: Beware of Disinformation!
July 17 - 21, 2010
The Degravitron of Richard Vialle
( and the response of a young "mathematician - physicist", full of diplomas )
The "superunitary" pseudo-scientific generator of Raoul Frank Hatem
We live in a strange era, where one cannot say that we are deprived of information, but rather often saturated with information, or at least supposedly so. When you read a newspaper, watch a TV show, check a web page, watch a video or use a search engine, you are in a information search situation. Contemporary events, such as the H1N1 vaccination campaign, have shown that you cannot take everything at face value. And this is valid in all areas. In the end, you are the one who decides if an information is credible or not. At the time, I had summarized this approach by drawing a dial, with a big question mark about its positioning.

The situation on the right evokes an alarmist, even catastrophic, position.
History shows that it is very difficult to position oneself between reassuring statements and alarmist cries. Review world history, just before 1939. People who feared a global conflagration were mocked by many. The Englishman Chamberlain himself, after meeting the Chancellor Adolf Hitler, returned from the famous Munich meeting in 1938, with a piece of paper signed by him, exclaiming "Peace is saved!". In this text, Adolf Hitler promised to limit to the annexation of the "Sudetenland", a region located west of Czechoslovakia, bordering Germany, containing a certain percentage of German speakers, his appetite for conquest. Other nations soon found out otherwise.

Chamberlain, after his meeting with Hitler in 1938: "Peace is saved!"
I add in passing that by choosing this historical anecdote I did not wish to insert any allusion related to any aspect of our present. It is there to remind us that our world has known times when, on the eve of a deadly, terrible, global conflagration, people seemed completely unaware. My own parents told me that in 1939 no one would have believed for a second in the start of a new world war, and I still hear my mother recall that people said, "if there was a war, think, with the modern means we have, it would be over in a few months!".
And yet...
If I placed on the left a television screen, it's because often this box of images plays a role of anesthetic. However, it is remarkable to note that channels like Arte can broadcast alternately, depending on the subject, well-supported information, historical or based on thorough and documented investigations, as well as real brainwashing, like the 2004 show "September 11 did not happen", hosted by journalist Daniel Lecomte.

****The journalist Daniel Lecomte
You cannot say "don't watch the channel Arte, it only informs you wrongly". Informing yourself is an active attitude. In principle, the job of a journalist is to make verifications, through cross-checking, field investigations, and archive consultations, for his readers or viewers. But we increasingly notice the lack of professional awareness in this profession.
Those who manage sites like mine must constantly do similar work, which takes time, and is not always easy. I am, indeed, greatly helped by my readers, who guide me in my research and possibly correct my mistakes.
Information is never neutral. A void of information, a bombardment of "people" information is in itself an act of disinformation, aimed at capturing the attention of people, to prevent them from looking elsewhere.
When confronted with a discourse, questions immediately emerge. Who is speaking? Who is expressing themselves? What channel is used? What type of information appears through this channel? Does this source regularly mix facts with baseless statements?
Sometimes it is the speaker's competence that should attract attention. Today, sites like Wikipedia allow, with a simple click, to access a profile on the speaker, and to access their career, their CV. I sometimes express a personal opinion on certain scientific and technical aspects, when it falls within my range of skills. This allows me to formulate a personal opinion on the plausibility of such or such information. This has allowed me to react quite early to the emergence of certain techniques, such as the famous "chips" or RFID, simply because of my ability to extrapolate the evolution of an emerging technology.
I always try to be cautious when citing a particular site, a particular media. I have also learned to be more cautious when people from the media (or pretending to be) of any size, ask me for something. After experiences like my participation in the show "L'Arène" on France, on March 21, 2007, hosted by Stéphane Bern, I can tell you that if I go on a set, I always take, well hidden, an MP3 audio recorder, to signal, if necessary, the measures of censorship during the broadcast (note that the 2009 show on Direct8 had no major cuts. But as you have noticed, this had no follow-up, the channel having been promptly taken back under control).
Dossier The UFOs and the Media
In other cases, it seems necessary to point out people who present themselves as scientists, specialists in this and that, without any background. A few years ago, I was asked by readers who sent me hours and hours of conferences by a certain Jean-Marc Roeder "quantum physicist". After listening to everything, I concluded that the character was completely inconsistent, and I said so without hesitation on my site.
Jean-Marc Roeder, a confirmed pseudo-scientist
Scientific background: zero
http://pagesperso-orange.fr/quanthommesuite/roederholodynamquant.htm
In forums, participants can be heard protesting by saying that I am quite incisive towards people "who are fighting the same battle as me". To this I respond that since 2008, apart from popular science books, I now limit my science information channels to participation in international scientific conferences (Vilnius, 2008, MHD, Bremen 2009, hypersonic aerodynamics, Jeju, South Korea, MHD, 2010, Prague, 2012, MHD) and to high-level scientific journals with a review committee (Acta Physica Polonica, 2009, three MHD articles). Outside of that, we have decided to strictly control the content and distribution of our interventions, without needing to resort to third parties.
When a media regularly hosts people like Jean-Marc Roeder, they can be classified among communication channels devoid of seriousness. This is the case for Radio Ici et Maintenant, directed by Didier de Plaige (whose real name is not that, but the name of the Ashram where this ex-Buddhist stayed for a while) who widely opens his air to such fantasists. We will give an example of this mediocrity of this media later. I have not spoken on it for several years and I no longer give interviews to these people. The echoes and reports I have had from groups like "Ufology Dinners", who receive people like the brilliant author of the revolutionary theory of the universes, Claude Poher, do not give me the desire to express myself in these tribunes, nor to recommend them to my readers. His close collaboration with the Geipan, a service of the Cnes, means "Ufology Dinners - Geipan, same fight."
Claude Poher, the brilliant inventor of the ultimate constituent of the Universe: the Universon
It is the same for many "parallel media". You can see above, on the OVNI-USA site, run by Didier de Plaige (Radio Ici et Maintenant), a photo showing Bill Ryan and Kerry Cassidy, hosts of two sites, the Camelot Project and the Avalon Project.
There, things go much further.
I discovered the existence of this site by listening to the interview of Jane Burgermeister, who was one of the first to denounce the fraud that was the global vaccination campaign against the "H1N1 pandemic." I found that this woman made interesting and courageous statements. But by listening in detail to her interview, as edited by Bill Ryan, co-founder of this "Camelot Project" with Kerry Cassidy, several things disturbed me. For example, in the middle of this interview, Ryan slipped in:
- It's like with UFOs....
Finally, the end of the interview contained a sequence that should have been cut during editing, representing a dialogue between Ryan and Jane Burgermeister.
- How was it? - Very well - Oh, you know, I did what I could.... - You are doing very well on the air. You know you are very pretty.....
Etc.....
Coming from an amateur videographer, this could be understood. Nevertheless, these elements completely destroyed the credibility of Jane Burgermeister's statements. Considering that what she said was important, I asked a friend, who knows these things better than me, to capture the entire interview, then to make a document from which these passages would be removed, without specifying the source. And it is this expurgated document that was presented on my site, without mentioning its source, which is highly questionable.
Recently, the release of an interview on the Camelot Project site literally made me lose my temper. Many have already seen the home page of this site, with its emblem, a cheetah, accompanied by a recognizable jingle:
At the top, you see the announcement of an interview with a certain Aaron McCollum, by the second host of the "project": Kerry Cassidy. On the following picture, you see Kerry Cassidy interviewed with Bill Ryan.
And here is Aaron McCollum:

Aaron McCollum, 31 years old, with earrings, tattoos, claims to be a former soldier
http://projectcamelotproductions.com/interviews/aaron_mccollumII/aaron_mccollumII.html
The nature of the Camelot Project and its alternative, the Avalon Project, managed by Bill Ryan, who claims to have recently distanced himself from the actions of Kerry Cassidy, has been brutally revealed with this man's interview. A few days ago, it was still online with a French subtitle. Being in contact with a Belgian, who claims to have the duty of translating these texts into French (...) I tried to find out who translated this interview of McCollum, and he opposed an ethical barrier ... This damned opacity of the net, this refuge of pseudonyms.
You will find in this interview of Aaron McCollum, devoid of any supporting elements, an example of what the late Gilles Pinon called
Amplified Disinformation
In two words, Aaron McCollum explains why the current gathering of ships near Yemen has nothing to do with the growing tension in this region, which leaves the risk of a conflict between Israel and their American allies on one side, and Iran on the other.
No, nothing to do with that. If these ships are there, it's because the region is the site of a "spacetime portal" (called Seagate) that manifests itself by a "powerful magnetic field." We find the theme dear to Charles Berlitz, in his book The Bermuda Triangle, or the case of the disappearance of an American naval unit, the Philadelphia, manipulating space-time using its degaussing belt. Having met Berlitz in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where he lived at the time, I told him that if you could distort space-time with a degaussing belt of a ship (intended to make it immune to magnetic mines), you would now have to be wary of a simple sewing magnet.
As for piracy in the region, Aaron McCollum explains that it is intentional, organized, to dissuade curious people from wandering in this part of the globe. Listen, read, you won't believe your eyes and ears.
In the Camelot - Avalon system, they start from authentic problems, sometimes from real facts, and they distort them by amplifying them to the point of devaluing, totally discrediting the discourse. This is not the work of amateurs. Kerry Cassidy is a sociologist by training. Bill Ryan, after brief studies in science, after a short time devoted to teaching, turned to psychology, and for 25 or 30 years led a career as a corporate psychologist, advising executives of powerful companies like Hewlett Packard or British Aerospace Corporation. He is therefore a master of manipulation, who has taught these techniques for decades. So don't take him for a novice, for a big naive, even if he has changed his suit and tie for a leather hat, to be "cooler."
Bill Ryan took his big friend, David Icke, as a model. You will find him in the Camelot Project and the Avalon Project. Icke, the indispensable one, author of this bestseller

David Icke's book: "Children of the Matrix": How an interdimensional race has controlled our world for thousands of years, and continues to do so
This book is only the beginning of an endless series of bestsellers that are popular in the Deep America. Go on the web and search for the videos that show that our politicians, Bill Clinton, George Bush (the list is endless) are ... reptiles!
It is absolutely not impossible that on other planets, reptilian humanoid species have emerged. Assuming these reptiles are present on our soil, what would allow them to be identified? Their slit pupils? No. If the snake has these eyes, the snake has round pupils.
Reptiles are either oviparous (lay eggs), or ovoviviparous (they lay eggs in which the young are already fully formed). In either case, the species does not nurse, the individuals do not have nipples. Males do not have an external sex organ, apparent. The sex organ and the anus open into a single chamber called the cloaca. Thus, if Bill Clinton were reptilian, he would have passed all his medical exams and never been seen naked in a tennis or swimming club changing room.

A question to Monica Lewinsky, involved in a relationship with Bill Clinton
David Icke's thesis is therefore an incredible joke, relayed by Bill Ryan without the slightest remorse.
Books of this kind are bestsellers in the United States. Like our Raël national, Icke doesn't do too badly with women:

David Icke and his wife Pamela
Below is a screenshot of Bill Ryan's blog dated July 19, 2010:
*and a little further down in this same post, dated July 19, 2010, his big friend David Icke: *
Bill Ryan took Icke as a model. But as he is a bit of a fraud, he has equipped himself with a hat.

Bill Ryan without his hat, hiding his beginning of baldness
Like Kerry Cassidy, and like Icke, he is a manipulator and a hysteric (the two are perfectly compatible). Let's say that the interview of this manipulator-liar, Aaron McCollum, completely caricatured, represented an attempt to push the envelope too far, at a cosmic distance (what David Icke has been doing for a long time), even if this kind of rotten product finds a clientele in the Deep America. Confronted with rather strong reactions on blogs, in forums (and mine, transmitted by my Belgian contact), Ryan immediately let go of Cassidy and retreated to this "Avalon Project."
I will leave the reader to judge by giving the link to the interview in English (the French subtitled version has disappeared, but we have stored it immediately). You will also find the French transcription of this interview, below.

Read, form your own opinion, conclude. My own is simple and categorical: these Camelot and Avalon projects correspond to a precise goal, led by a good communication specialist, Bill Ryan, who is conducting an amplified disinformation campaign. The same goes for Kerry Cassidy and a crowd of men on the web. Reasons? Multiple. Possibly being part of a coordinated plan, obeying orders (Yvan Blanc at Geipan), selling his nonsense (de Plaige and the radio Ici et Maintenant, the ufology dinners, or so many other similar structures or groups), expressing his delusion (Jean-Marc Roeder), his naive incompetence (Claude Poher) or simply expressing a natural hysteria of an aging character (Bill Ryan's hat hides his beginning of baldness, and Kerry Cassidy is an ex pin-up on the decline).
*I am amazed to see that my Belgian contact, a cultured and intelligent person, falls into such traps. ***
**I give you my personal opinion. If you want to continue to swallow this kind of nonsense, it's up to you. **

The Honorable Mr. Keshe
August 1, 2012
Readers often ask me what I think about this, that, or such and such. I am often unable to answer.
However, I invite you to watch this video, where the Honorable Mr. Keshe, an Iranian living in Belgium, presents his amazing inventions. Skip the tedious presentation that occupies the first part of this document, and go directly to the performance of the character. It is subtitled in French.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LijQoYeL2n0
You will see him present two white plastic containers, which are supposed to contain electrical generators capable of developing 3 kW, "which will cost you just a few cents". Their price: 5000 euros, paid in cash.
- No photos, please ....
In terms of free energy, like in poker, you have to pay to see. This is what I finally said to people who begged me to echo the fantastic discoveries of this Iranian, his new vision of the Cosmos. I told them:
*- Buy one of these white boxes. Put your 5000 euros on the table. Then we will bring with us measuring devices and test these dream machines. *
The speech of the Honorable Keshe is confusing for the physicist I am. He uses a small number of words, which he puts to all uses: plasma, gravitational field, masses. He "opens the plasma" (?...).

That's for sure ...
People who came to the conference, expecting a demonstration, will be for their trouble. This one will not take place, due to pressures exerted on the researcher. A helicopter flew over his house.... people came and knocked on his door.

I believe that this speaks for itself. I am sometimes quite stunned when I see such fools manage to attract the attention of cultured and apparently intelligent people, who never miss the gilded mirrors. Keshe writes books, which he offers with his nonchalant air. He addresses his public as if he were doing them a favor, looks with compassion at people who talk about neutrons, protons, electrons, going as far as to say " .. you're still there! ...".
How does this "foundation" work, with what money? There must be something I'm missing.
August 21, 2012: These nonsense are starting to really annoy me.
How can people be so naive to swallow such nonsense?
On September 21, the Keshe Foundation announced with a big fanfare a conference that will be given in its walls by the "Professor Engineer Doctor" Konstantin Meyl. Theme of his conference: "The differences and similarities between Tesla's technology and Keshe's."
Mention "Register now. The number of places is limited!
This conference will follow a closed meeting, on September 6, which will take place "with representatives of different governments". But it is immediately specified that "nothing will come out of this meeting". This event will not be "accessible to the public ".
Nice, isn't it? ** ** ** **
Due to the success of the 21 April meeting, the second international presentation for governments and space institutes is being planned for 6 September 2012 at the Keshe Foundation Center in Belgium.
In the meeting we brought together representatives of several governments, and the positive changes which the Foundation can bring about have already started.
Au cours de cette réunion, nous réunirons des représentants de différents gouvernements, et les changements positifs que la Fondation peut apporter ont d'ores et déjà commencé.
Because of the nature of our work, we will not release any information about these meetings and the same has been asked of the ambassadors and officials who attended the meeting on the 21st
Etant donné la nature de notre travail, nous ne communiquerons aucune information émanant de ces rencontres (...), et la même requête a été formulée à l'adresse des ambassadeurs et des officiels qui seront présents à cette réunion du 21 septembre.
THIS EVENT IS NOT PUBLIC ACCESSIBLE !
CETTE RENCONTRE NE SERA PAS ACCESSIBLE AU BUBLIC!
Only invited representatives of governments are allowed. Nothing will be shown outside. Please, let the guests participate in peace. Next public event is on 21 September 2012.
Ne seront admis que les représentants des gouvernement qui auront été invités. Rien ne sera montré à l'extérieur (...). S'il vous plaît, laissez nos hôtes participer en toute tranquillité. La séance ouverte au public se tiendra le 21 septembre 2012 (quel bluff !!).
All of this leads us to talk about Nikola Tesla, an authentic genius, that one:
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikola_Tesla
It would take pages to talk about the incredible discoveries of this all-around physicist, of Serbian origin.
An absolute genius, like Tesla, is someone who is completely balanced? If there is a man who deserves the qualification of "mad scientist", it is him. Sunflower, next to him, is just a tinkerer.
We know little about Tesla's private life.
Tesla left his name to the unit of magnetic field. And he deserves it handsomely. In many areas, he worked as a pioneer, as a visionary. He demonstrated, in front of astonished admirals, a semi-submersible remote-controlled device. Those people didn't understand what they were shown.
Consult this page on Tesla. At the end of it:
| Free energy | It was during the May 20, 1891 conference at Columbia University in New York, that Tesla first spoke of free energy (or free energy). Here is what he announces, in his conference titled "Experiments with Alternating Currents of High Frequency": | « In a few generations our machines will be powered by this energy available anywhere in the universe.[…] In space there is a form of energy. Is it static or kinetic? If it is static, all our research will have been in vain. If it is kinetic – and we know that it is –, it is just a matter of time, and humanity will have harmonized its energy techniques with the great gears of nature. » |
|---|
This announcement has never been followed by any concrete realization, nor even by a theoretical formulation, nor any publication.
The history of science is full of things like this. But it is on this sentence that legions of charlatans surf, who seek a warranty for their own pseudo-work, by attaching it to this illustrious name.
As if by chance, these visionaries don't want to show anything. You saw it in the video indicated on this page. The rest is empty words and flow of words. Keshe uses the word plasma. For others, like this German, it is the word vortex that serves as a magic word.
It is not weeks without readers asking me about some great discovery. Raoul Louis Hatem shows a kind of "energy multiplier". Instead of using gears, he uses magnetic coupling. And the word "magnetic" becomes then the magic word. Measurements? Come on....
Words, yes, in the mouth of this man who was a watchmaker by profession.
It doesn't work? Because you haven't reached 3000 revolutions, and the speed is capped at 2500. I imagine that this poor Hatem must be a victim of his own illusions.
Energy is measured, with a wattmeter, or a simple "clamp meter". Calories are also measured. But in all these videos, what do you see? Things that are unclear.
All of this is boring and I understand why I had so much trouble, and I still have so much trouble to advance ideas. Search for "shock wave cancellation" or "shock wave annihilation" on the net. You will find only ... my work.
Thesis, publications in journals with a review committee, hydraulic simulations, numerical simulations, conferences, seminars: nothing has worked.
I remember the phrase of a certain Couturier, who later became director of the Paris Observatory, who was at the time considered a specialist in shock waves, and who told me, already in 1977:
- Your shock wave, you have to find it somewhere!
*- You will explain that to me. *
- Yes, I will do it....
*- I am still waiting. *
So these are the two extremes. I am ready at any time to "go down into the lion's den", to debate in a seminar "facing my peers", to cross swords with specialists. Others escape, by pretending "that a helicopter flew over their home".
How gullible people are! How many charlatans take advantage of their naivety and how many delay the rise of consistent innovations in physics.
I think of the Z-machine, with its billions of degrees, and the presentation that Malcolm Haines made in June 2011, at the international colloquium in Biarritz, following a publication of ... 172 pages in the plasma physics journal.
Case closed. This is science. The rest is lamentable nonsense and all kinds of frauds.
Don't miss the next issue of Nexus (September October 2012), you will not be disappointed .
The Thrive Foundation or the toroidal nonsense, with the participation of Nassim Haramein,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIU0BUyZ0-A&feature=share****

Foster Gamble: "The universe is a machine to make tori"
**It takes money to finance such videos, full of expensive special effects. But, damn it, where does this money come from? ** ---

**His accomplice, Nassim Haramein, the "scientist" of the team. **
And, of course, the indispensable David Icke, reptile hunter :

*This video is a model of the genre, illustrates the technique of amalgamation. Intelligent statements (on exploitation, criticism of the banking system, the technique of money creation) mixed with an avalanche of nonsense. * ---
I sometimes wonder where my readers are. I don't count the emails I receive, which point to some nonsense based on "free" energy, superunitary machines.
In this kind of affair, there are not thirty-six possible outcomes. Only the sanction of facts counts. And I don't count the number of times these affairs melt like butter in the sun.
- Mr. Petit, I beg you, you should take a look at this, or that.
For honorable Mr. Keshe, I hope I have opened some eyes. Sometimes the paths are more winding, more subtle, and the means considerable. I'm not thinking of the bunch of guys who praise the virtues ... of the torus, their actions being supported by a long-haired theoretical physicist, whose name I recall: Nassim Haramein (his photo, above).
I'm shocked when I see a Belgian old friend, who has his own website and has long campaigned for the reopening of an investigation into September 11, 2001, falling for all these nonsense one after another and spending a lot of time on them. Years ago, it was David Icke, Bill Ryan. Recently, he was directing me towards "the fantastic discoveries of honorable Mr. Keshe," begging me to watch the video of this guy, which he himself had subtitled. A video where the scammer's behavior was as clear as day.
- But, damn it, Jean-Luc, do you have dirt in your eyes or what!?!?
I missed my vocation. If I had founded a cult, what a success! I imagine a video where I would explain the multiple virtues of the Möbius strip, the Boy surface, and the sphere inversion. Instead, what a hassle, persisting on the rocky paths of experimentation.
What a "noise," by God! Between the reptilians, the torus fanatics, the various "surunitaire" enthusiasts, it's confusing!
In what follows, I will present the record of the scam, the "Neosocket." It comes from the United States:


What is it? A miracle fuel saver. "Just plug and save." Translation: "You just have to put this thing in your cigarette lighter and save money!"?
Increased Gas Mileage!
- For the same amount of fuel, you drive more kilometers! *
Lower Emissions!
- You emit fewer greenhouse gases! *
Increased Horsepower!
- You have more horsepower under your hood! *
Longer Battery Life!
- You increase the life of your battery! *
Easy to use and starts working instantly!
- Easy to use and implement: the process starts instantly! *
When you open it, inside, a simple ... diode. It doesn't mention that, in addition, for each mile driven, you gain karma points. That's for the Indian version, I suppose.
On the back of the box, it says the device is patented. And that it has already satisfied half a million users. Then follows the results of tests performed on different types of vehicles.
In the universe of nonsense: a collectible piece ---
**The "surunitaire" generators. **
The net is full of videos showing machines that their inventors claim are able to produce more energy in output than in input. Among these miracle machines, the generator of Leon Raoul Hatem, a watchmaker by profession. Starting from a power source constituting the input of the system (the grid, at 220 volts), it drives a motor that turns a series of magnetic gears. So far, there is no mystery.
The axis of each of these disks is coupled with an alternator, which provides a certain voltage, at no load. These outputs are not connected to any "load," such as simple electrical resistors, for example.
The inventor, who has many followers who have reproduced his machine, claims to thus multiply the input power by the sum of the output powers, with a surunitary efficiency.
If you type "wattmeter" on Google, you will find, for sale, relatively cheap devices that can be connected to electrical devices, in particular the simplest ones: resistances.
One of these devices can be connected to the input of the miracle machine of Leon Raoul Hatem. It will give the input power. Imagine that the user has "multiplied this injected power by six" by using six magnetic drive devices in cascade. For the experiment to make any sense, it will be necessary to connect the output terminals of the six alternators to load resistances, which can be ... electric lamps. The six alternators would have to be operated simultaneously. Then six wattmeters will allow measuring the six powers dissipated in these six outputs.
If the sum of these exceeds the input power, we will then have a device with surunitary efficiency. In the video below, you will see a man named Fabrice Halem who has attached this type of generator to his interesting chalet, using solar and wind energy. He presents it to the Press.

Fabrice André: This system consumes from 200 to 750 watts and can produce up to 14 kilowatts (...)
We contacted him a few years ago, after seeing this report, proposing that he come to perform this verification. A dilatory, confused phone response, containing obscure sentences like:
- You shouldn't confuse power and energy.....
http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xijf0g_maison-autonome-a-moteur-surnumeraire_tech
What is lamentable is that people who call themselves journalists broadcast such reports.
Personally, I have received, and continue to receive, messages from readers who send me towards these videos. On the "Neosocket" box, you can read, in the red sticker, in white letters:
A seen on TV
In other words "seen on TV"
What a strange information vehicle, this object called "TV." As much as it will echo unverified nonsense, it will remain silent on important issues, like the results obtained on the Z-machine. But maybe it's a way to drown real signals in a noise-bouillie.
A year ago, I think, a director with considerable means decided to make a report "on fusion." Having considerable means, after making a report on the Tore Supra tokamak, where he had "witnessed a successful shot," he ended up at Sandia, where the Z-machine's managers cheerfully made him take a pot for a lantern.
Having seen my mocking comment, this director called me, protesting against the severity of my statement. He claimed "he had wanted to do his best":
-
By going to make this report at Sandia, on the Z-machine, I wanted to move things forward...
-
Why didn't you take me with you? It would have saved you from being taken for a ride.
The coverage of the "successful shot" at Tore Supra (Cadarache) is a model of the genre.
What was successful? Mystery. Maybe the mystification.
But it gave something "seen on TV."
Personally, I haven't had a television for years. You can do very well without it, and it avoids a lot of time lost on fake reports, designed on purpose, or just a simple expression of the lack of professionalism of their directors.
October 17, 2012
No scientist has shown interest in my work ...
Today, a reader wanted to draw my attention to the work of a man named Richard Vialle, presented in three successive videos, located on the site of Jean-Louis Naudin.
http://jnaudin.free.fr/rvproject/index.htm
So I courageously sat in front of my screen. The video is accompanied by pleasant background music. A person starts by introducing himself. He says he is a "mathematician and physicist" and is interested in everything that lies at the boundaries of science, he says.
He then launches into a long interview, in three parts, with a certain Richard Vialle. Vialle draws many diagrams and writes many equations on a whiteboard installed in his home. I try to follow. All of this seems a bit nonsensical, but who knows. I wait.
And suddenly Vialle draws a device that reminds me of something. Regarding this gravity-defying experiment, he mentions the name of the late Michel Bounias, who had indeed invited him to the Science Frontiers festival 25 years ago. I was there at that time.
The physicist-mathematician asks Vialle if a scientist has looked into his work.
- None, he answers.
That's false. I did, and I detected the artifact. Not immediately. When I saw this experiment in action, I was bewildered. I was surrounded by people who told me:
- So, you have this gravity-defying experiment right in front of you! You can't deny the facts.
The setup was identical to what you see in this photo:
But, in the end, no scientist .....
Here is the trick, as Vialle presented it at the Science Frontiers Festival.
The Degravitron of Richard
A large plexiglass hood covered a device consisting of a transparent box containing a thick polystyrene disk, coupled to the axis of an electric motor. An electrical supply was connected to the motor and gave it a rotational speed increasing with the square root of t. The box weighed 3 kilograms. It was suspended from the top of the hood by a piano wire, a thin steel wire. But its weight also partially rested on the platform of an electronic scale, a kind of balance that measures weight without any displacement, simply by compressing piezoelectric crystals.
When Vialle started his motor, the rotational speed increased, in a few seconds. Then, suddenly, the scale showed a decrease of 700 grams. "Weightlessness" was achieved.
I was surrounded by a crowd that had come to the festival.
- So, Mr. Petit! There, you must admit it. A weight loss of 700 grams is not nothing.
I was left like an idiot. It was only a few hours later, lying on my bed in my room, that I found the artifact.
I propose a game. I don't indicate the solution. Search. If you can't find it.
Well, I suppose you found the bug, or you discovered it by clicking on this link. The next day I returned to the large room where the guy was enjoying his triumph, multiplying demonstrations. It made me sad to have to reveal to him that he had wasted his time, maybe years. This power supply that gave a rotational speed increasing proportionally to the square root of time, based on his grocery store calculations, must have been difficult to design. He also relied on the ramblings of Claude Poher (the man of the universes). He had lined up pages of "scientific calculations," the same ones you will discover on this video.
I was going to break his dream, like a guy who approaches with a hammer, and is about to smash a Chinese vase. But it had to be done, and I did it away from the public. Removing this connection between the mobile equipment and the bell, using this steel wire, there was no more weightlessness.
Vialle drank a lot that night, making incoherent statements. Then he left the next day.
Sometimes, surprising discoveries have been made by amateurs, self-taught people. I also know very pretentious scientists, who have their heads full of knowledge, but who will never find anything in their lives. I have met basic technicians who have touched on amazing things, simply by thinking.
But sometimes you get lost, you waste your time.
Clearly, Vialle hasn't discovered that his great discovery is going up in smoke. He has reconstructed it in his mind.
I don't know what this young "mathematician and physicist" will do, nor what Jean-Louis Naudin, who hosts these nonsense on his site, will do. These videos, subtitled in English, may already have been copied in thousands of copies, cited as examples, around the world, discussed in famous seminars.
What really pisses me off is that solid, innovative approaches are being parasitized by the nonsense on this page. And I'm not done. There are still more fools to expose.
What about the "surunitaire"?
I don't know. I also don't know if "the e-cat" is really a great discovery or yet another mirage. I hope it's not.
A bearded guy, not very delicate, is selling nine DVDs, each an hour and a half long, for his own profit. He had committed to giving 3 euros per DVD sold to Savoir sans Frontières. Of course, the association doesn't see a penny. It's simply dishonesty.
On one of these DVDs, whose content I can't modify, I expressed doubts about the results of the experiments conducted on the LHC in Geneva, the Large Hadron Collider.
I was wrong. This machine may have revealed the existence of the Higgs boson. I say "may" because it will have to be confirmed. If it is, it would then logically be awarded a Nobel Prize.
Let's wait.
I was wrong to express myself in a field where I had no competence. But, in the case of the fools who haunt this page, I believe there is little chance I'm wrong.

Hatem, a pseudo-physicist
Let's continue with the waste of time. But I suppose it's doing useful, and urgent work. The net is full of nonsense. I invite you to watch this video, where this honest watchmaker-maniac, Hatem, explains how he discovered "the secret of the universe" and how he can produce kilowatts, as much as you want, thanks to "magnets." Again, I repeat, to measure the powers, there are devices called wattmeters. You put one at the input, another at the output, and you realize if, yes or no, you are "sur-unitary."
What is extraordinary is that you can meet people, Sunday physicists, who perform these setups that represent a simple magnetic coupling. In energy transmission systems, you can imagine anything. There is the coupling using gears, the friction coupling (your vehicle's clutch). There are also hydraulic couplers. There, you realize a coupling using simple magnets. Nothing to be surprised about.

- One thing is certain: if I hadn't met my wife, I wouldn't have discovered the secret of the universe...

I reproduce the email that a reader sent me today. Since he allows me, I reproduce his name:

Hello Sir, I have been used to your excellent website for a long time, and I just saw your latest update.
Just two quick comments on the two subjects "surunitary motor":
If you quickly watch the short video below, which was made to demonstrate the inventor of this motor, Mr. Leon Raoul Hatem, I think you can see the flaw in the invention.
The 2.2 kW motor must drive 6 alternators of 2.2 kW, as a simple magnetic coupling. The alternators must power halogen lamps: there are 4 on the board, the power of this type of lighting is between 200 and 500 W.
When he turns it on, he manages to light 3 lamps, and the system seems to fail to light the fourth.
So we can estimate that his system delivers between 1000 and 1500 W, which, considering the losses, is consistent with a consumption of 2200 W.
Nothing else to report on this invention, except perhaps an interesting magnetic coupling system that could be used for speed regulators (driving a vehicle with an asynchronous motor, for example). But I think this has already been thought of by the SNCF or in the automotive industry...
See the video in question here.
In short, this is probably not the energy of tomorrow.
Sincerely, Philippe François.
