To: average joe who wrote (18944 ) 7/22/2001 2:06:39 PM From: cosmicforce Respond to of 82486 Dear SAJ: Once again, you've said people have said things they didn't. I attribute this to your poor mental health possibly from exposure to cadmium and mercury ore. You claim I said "<blah, blah, blah>, end of story", when I said no such thing but actually the opposite. You're mentally impaired because I said there was a lack of coherence in the data. Poor, SAJ. Have you tried chelation therapy? It might not be too late. I was discussing the speculative nature of high energy physics arising from SL-9 (something which you apparently don't understand in the least). I have books on thermal physics, astrophysics, astronomy, P-chem, (including the set of Feynman's lectures) and about 20 other books on atomic physics which I've read and have made an attempt at understanding. Here is my whole quote from that reply to Steven Rodgers:If you believe or doubt a theory there should be some coherence. For example, in Tunguska where the impact occurred early in the last century, there was evidence of mutation rates consistent with high radiation. This is totally inexplicable considering what we think it was and how we understand how physics works. One possible explanation is that with energetic enough events you can generate neutron flux or gamma ray flux by means unknown to us. This is probably like the sonoluminescence that occurs in water (also by a mechanism we don't understand). If you create high enough energy densities then you might start shaking apart matter. The KE yields from Tunguska were enormous (on the order of the largest city-killer bombs of the Cold War). To me this is entirely consistent with my belief that we are fields of energy, tightly swirled. Large perturbations (like 20 Megatons equivalent energy) might cause matter to shake apart. The real test is do we see X-rays from impacts? Because the Shoemaker-Levy 9 impact was largely over the horizon, we might not know if there were anomalous X-ray bursts.
