Dear All (including
Harry),
The key point is that Harry is convinced that classical (text book)
electromagnetic theory is fatally flawed.
It would be of great help if Harry told this circulation that that is indeed
his position today. He should realise that the "science
establishment" (parrots) will then ignore both him and us. Their blindness
will be encouraged if they find division between parties who all are convinced
that classical theory (their theory) is fatally flawed.
Into this mix comes cattq
and the Wakefield experiments. Both, question and experimental results, undermine classical theory. For Harry to
misinterpret them as (failed) attempts to "explain" the new
"theories" (a misnomer as Harry has pointed out) is ridiculous. The
Catt tribe do not come along with new "theories", They
offer far, far more. You can see this at http://www.ivorcatt.co.uk/x18j1.htm

This morning, at 5am, I began to read x18j1. It introduced me to a
"foreign land", where massive digital systems under development (for
the likes of the NHS) with an investment of the
equivalent for each one of £30,000,000 were being built and abandoned.
Details are in my book "Computer Worship", published half a century
ago. I noticed that "Wireless World", a monthly journal with a
circulation of 50,000 built up by the non-graduate, Tom Ivall,
was publishing two articles by two members of my three man team who were always
in employment because the digital systems they designed actually worked.
(The second, Davidson article, was later relegated to a letter.) You can read
them both at the start of http://www.ivorcatt.co.uk/x18j01.pdf .
I made a cold call to the late Tom Ivall,
telling him that we (society) were in transition from sine wave (radio) to
digital and he would not have copy for his readers appropriate to digital, in
which my three man team Catt Davidson Walton had expertise. He was publishing
articles by two of us, but did not know we were a three man team with the
expertise he needed.
cold-call
verb
gerund or present participle: cold-calling
1. make an unsolicited visit or phone call to
(someone), in an attempt to sell goods or services.
"he has been cold-called a dozen times in
the past two months"
Although he had never met me or published me, in a ten minute
telephone interview he asked if he could come to see me next day.
I told my late wife, and that presaged the end of my marriage and
family. Although I had published an international "best seller"
"The Catt Concept", I was still under control. However, such a visit
would presage then end of her psychological control of her family (I lived in a
matriarchy). I got no sleep that night, before the crucial visit, when Ivall brought his wife with him. (That is why, much later,
when the late Clive Sinclair asked to come to see me, I replied with an
extraordinary request, asking him if I could spend the previous night in his
home, not mine. ({He was in the process of divorcing. I would get some sleep
before our initial, crucial meeting.})
Fortunately my wife did not disrupt the Ivall
visit, and he then published us every month, ensuring the transition of their
readers from analogue to digital. He published our articles or discussion of
our articles monthly for many years, much more than ten years. More recently I
learned that they were appreciated by Harry Ricker, an antenna designer, who
himself was in transition.

In order to qualify for a Nobel Prize, it is necessary to confirm that
one is unsure about the relative phase of E and H - that
one is still in the analog age, not the digital. See
recent Nobellist Roger Penrose, in 1990 "The
Emperor's new mind", p240;
"An oscillating magnetic field would give rise to an oscillating
magnetic field (this was implied by Faraday's experimental findings) http://www.ivorcatt.co.uk/x29j.htm ,
and this oscillating electric field would, in turn, give rise to an oscillating
magnetic field (by Maxwell's theoretical influence .... ....". Incredibly,
like Maxwell, he draws them in phase later in his book. Will Howie comment? No
chance. Josephson?
When head of the Cavendish, Howie said physical reality was composed of
sine waves. Thus, his and their "physical reality" predates the
digital age. They will however allow computer software entry into academia, and
so enlarge society's (and academia's) bureaucracy, calling unscientific BUREAUCRATIC software
"computer science". Digital hardware is excluded from academia. Now
that computers are physically tiny, they can still work, unlike the earlier big
ones, which built with the wrong theory, failed. See my book "Computer
Worship" However, still today, the USB cable is an abortion, of
course. http://www.ivorcatt.co.uk/seminar.html

Harry,
You see how flimsy are the foundations of the house of cards called
"Modern Physics".;
You demand a fully built, strong house as total replacement. You will
attack attempts to gradually, rigorously build a replacement, brick by brick.
Half built, you claim it should bring with it simple, clear explanation for
people traumatised by the obvious nonsense hammered into their heads by HQPs
after decades of parrot training..
Give us a break! It will take us decades to construct the correct, or at
least better, replacement. You are attacking the bricklayers.
We are confronting all diverse parties; for example "Demyst", who want us to make sense of their decoration
(which they think is clarification) of the house of cards, not knowing what I
have called "demystify and destroy". Will they respond to my quote
from 2020 Nobellist Penrose? I doubt it. I hereby ask
them to respond to this circulation. Similarly Unzicker,
who also is in nomansland., along with further multiple new Newtons.
Howie reads Jackson, who only has sine waves travelling down lossy (highly mathematical) transmission lines. When we
design digital systems, the transmission lines are not lossy
(easier theoretically). The maths is simple or non-existent. Digital systems
are not mathematical. http://www.ivorcatt.co.uk/tong21.htm
