UFO Technology Revealed

I have this pension for looking up things that could get me "disapeared." I ran across this book, recently turned ebook, and have been working my way through it.

Honestly, take a look and tell all what you think!

Download!

Umm, I recognize it isn't really cosure to discuss stuff like this as opinions on this and like subjects varies widely, but I would encourage a look at this with a healthy amount of skepticism. Don't look at what he's saying, look at what he says.

Enjoy, my fellow dreamers!

I guess I missed the mark a little... Unless the view counter for threads I start is screwed up? I spent just enough time in this thread to see that at least two other people looked at it, so I think the counter is broken.

And that nobody responded... I guess I missed the mark.. Hm. How strange.

Well, I'm start reading it, but: 1)It's quite long, 2)It's in English, and 3)It's digital (so my eyes can't read digital text for too long...)
Give people some time, or give us a quick recap of the theories exposed in this book...

Thank you, namaste and good luck www.jagthesite.com____Ramielarium____My Blog!

Erm!! My bad! I'm sorry, I hadn't even realized people had read this thread (its in my head, my head).

[!spoilers!]
Recap: This guy maintains that all the technology required to drive a UFO has been through the patent office in the USA as far back as 1938. The newest patent was granted in 1987 after the government of the US had seen the patent in 1980 (seven years, think of how much development could happen!).

The book includes all mentioned patents and designs for at least three solid state propulsion systems and one inertial dampener.
[/!spoilers!]

Er, sorry, again... :P

Something being designed and patented doesn't mean it'll work.

Just think of all the patents and designs for perpetual motion machines.

interesting... (I'm quite "open-minded" )
I'll try to read it (but it's really hard for me), and I will let you know my thoughts

This is very true. But it is the science that is most interesting. I suggest you dig through the patent information (you seem like an intelligent fellow who ought to be able to understand patents) and tell us what you think of them.

Or anti-gravity... it doesn't have to work to be patented, this is why patent reform is such a hot issue this year.

The attention span of a computer is only as long as it electrical cord. Murphy's laws of technology
Work smarder and not harder and be careful of yor speling. Murphy's laws of technology

I've flipped though it (is it still flipping when your talking about an ebook?) and although the promise of technology looks very interesting the author sounds like a fanatic conspiracy theory nut.. wouldnt it be more likely that the tech doesnt work than for there to be a shadow government that researches all kinds of stuff and then doesnt use it?
either way ill have a look around those patents and see whats what.

Post count is frozen and only counts one above the replies a thread recives, hence now it will have 9 replies and 10 views, least on the newposts listing. On the thread itself itll say 0.

Some stuff in print is just as bad as the stuff you find on the net. Validity of the statements issued have to be taken with a grain of salt.
