**EDIT, spellcheck. Must have been in the coffee, I hate coffee as-is, so it will be blamed.**
I have recently been engulfed in creating my website (mentioned in the crypto zoology section), seeking out the proper material for my inner cones, and preparing for friends to visit from Chicago who want to spend time with me and have questions as well. I'm impressed with the questions you've asked this time around.
Codelephant - It has taken me several years to get to this point, it doesn't come easy. I think the phrase is that it can be a bumpy road. I honestly cannot visualize anyone taking the initiation to begin such a project on their own, and then having enough support, and money to do complete it. It is the invitation of a huge headache in your life in exchange for higher knowledge and safety. If there are such people on these boards for instance, and you were to see my device in person and had such interest, I would not shy you away, I'll say that much.
Everyone - There seems to be a mix-up regarding the tolerances. When I use the word exact, I mean damn close, pardon my Yugoslavian here. What you are building for is the end result, and if you accomplish that and the tolerances were not exact, then so be it. The tighter tolerances you hold, the higher chance you have of ending up with a working device. In that respect, it’s the same thing as building a car engine, just think of it in that way. If my magnetics are 100’Th of an inch off, will the cone still reject properly? Yes. Would I rather it be near perfect, certainly.
Wembly - Earthquakes are only a portion of the equation, with that there will be intense rainstorms, record hail, who knows. It won’t matter where you reside. Back to the original statement though, how are you going to live thru a series of more intense quakes than mankind has ever witnessed, taking place over several weeks? What will you do to? How are you so powerful that you will not be harmed?
Gadaffi - Hamel began construction of his devices in 1977, not the ship itself. He builds models of everything first. The ship utilizes one technology, but in a number of fashions. Consequentially, Hamel has constructed various devices thru this time frame. Also, he has worked alone for several decades. He has struggled for help, for gov't assistance in building this, to show his devices to the public, struggled against upset neighbors, against vandalism, against theft, you name it. This frustrates him, but nothing can stop his perseverance. He began the ship in the late 90's, and was held up for several years when the granite company did not understand some certain aspects of what he needed. Shortly after the last time I've seen him, he called me in excitement that he had finally received the pieces he needed to begin the next stage. People who have been helping him are similar to me, in that they live a distance from him and do what they can, but it is not a substitute for people doing physical work. In this next year, there will be approximately a dozen or more people working each day on this until completion. Until then, he will have worked primarily alone, on one very large ship.
Feen5 - Enjoy yourself, but never again fabricate information about me.
Peripart - Good news, I have found them in stock at a location in California. Now it’s a matter of finding the right size cups for them to fit into. Their diameter will be exactly double.
Amphairaus - Yes, I am taking field strength into consideration. I'm running with 1.6 MGO on everything.
Everyone have a happy 4’Th, and be thankful for this government who is loyal to us, and hides nothing, they are truly great people.
