... From "Stargazers and Gravediggers" © 1983 by Immanuel Velikovsky | FULL TEXT NOT AVAILABLE Contents "Afraid To Think"NOBODY PROTESTED the misrepresentation of the rudiments of science and the parade of nonsense in physics and logic, or nobody's protest was printed, but a letter-feuilleton by Alan O. Kelly of Carlsbad, California, was printed in the February 1952 issue of Scientific Monthly. It offered the "crank's-eye view": It is our observation that the great majority of people who deliberately decide to be scientists, and so educate themselves, are those who are psychologically unfitted to be real creative thinkers. They go into science because they are afraid to think for themselves. They ...

893. ABOB's Page: Comets, Culture, & Currency [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... ) Home | Issue Contents ABOB's Page: Comets, Culture, & Currency http://abob.libs.uga.edu/bobk/This is the Web page of SIS author, Bob Kobres (see Workshop 1991:2 ), which he describes as reflecting "over a decade of research aimed at understanding the social and physical influence of a large comet in an Earth threatening orbit which, according to astronomical evidence, has been progressively breaking up since the Holocene time period began". Articles include: "Comet Phaethon's Ride", a condensed version of which, titled, "The Path of a Comet and Phaethon's Ride", was published by The World ...
894. The Subject Of Defamation [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... about that before attacking you further. Legal action is expensive and often lengthy and complicated, but the monkeys have generated enough animosity to expect an explosion sooner or later, if not from you, then from another of their many victims. It is interesting that one prominent science writer, who insulted you and Velikovsky while making childish errors in physical science himself, responded to your reply and mine with a thinly veiled threat of legal action. We had not attacked him or insulted him or sent personal irritants to him, yet our having seen through his bluff, and our having shown him that bully boys often under-rate the strength of their intended victims, sent him into paroxysms of ...

Gammon, Euan MacKie: Specialist in archaeology, Hyam Maccoby: Specialist in Jewish History, Malcolm Lowery: Editor of the Review, Peter James: Assistant editor (Ancient History/Mythology), Andrew Hamilton: Assistant editor (Physical Sciences), Martin Sieff: Associate editor. Two new members of the Council were elected: Michael Start: subscription coordinator, Valerie Pearce: Overseas publications secretary. There was considerable discussion as regards the best way to increase the Society's membership and consequently its budget', since this would lead to an improvement in the Society's service to ...
896. Society News [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Earl Milton's Talk A strike in the Canadian postal service very nearly deprived UK members of another very interesting talk by Dr Earl Milton by so delaying his letter informing us of his intended visit to London that there was barely time to arrange the booking of a hall and to notify members of arrangements. The title of Dr Milton's talk was "Physics, Astronomy and Chronology", and in his inimitable style he spoke of the problems associated with the dating of human history and the age of the Earth. In confessing that satisfactory answers to the problems had yet to be found, he nonetheless felt it necessary to point out some of the more obvious flaws in the methods by which ...

... under National Medal of Science winner, Solomon Lefschetz. In the late Fifties he developed a new principle in celestial mechanics which not only gives a dynamical explanation for Bode's law but, as shown in 1972 by M. Ovenden, predicts current planetary distances with an average inaccuracy of less than one percent. Currently Dr. Bass is Professor of Physics and Astronomy, Brigham Young University. John V. Myers (Ph.D ., Univ. of North Carolina). A specialist in Romance Philology, the late Dr. Myers was formerly Chairman of the Foreign Language Dept., Union Univ. He was also the author of "Jehan de Lanson, chanson de geste of ...
898. Planetary Electrostatic Properties [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... From: SIS Internet Digest 1996:1 Home | Issue Contents Newsgroups: alt.sci.planetary Planetary Electrostatic Properties Based upon correlation of observable astro physical phenomenon it has long been this writers conviction that Earth's weather patterns are induced electrostatically through our planet's crust, acting as a huge capacitive plate between electron rich (negatively charged) magma patterns within our planet's mantle, and electron deficient (positively charged) H2-O ions in the atmosphere. True, thermal-dynamic interaction between the Sun and Earth's atmosphere tends to play an important role in establishing the hierarchy of lighter elements within our biosphere, but in my view this role is secondary in weather phenomena, while the primary vehicle in establishing ...
899. Analogous Mountain Building [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... this does not require the complicated technical facilities of an expensive laboratory, but relies for its effect upon something which we all must have observed at some time or other - the ruckling of a rug on a floor. Whoever thought of the analogy(1 ) hit upon such a simple picture requiring so little application of the imagination that a physical check would seem unnecessary; the similarity between the humps of a folded rug and the folded geological strata to be seen in most parts of any countryside was seemingly accepted in toto, without anyone thinking it necessary to question the cause that effects the ruckling, or considering how ruckling comes about, or why. (Since this contribution was ...
900. Akhetaten - Horizon of the Aten [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... the natural desert cliff forming a boundary in other directions. It was deliberately chosen by Akhenaten as a virgin site and can be seen as a deliberate move away from any existing power-base. It also would have appealed on religious grounds as a break in the cliff wall to the east allows the rising sun to shine through the gap in a physical manifestation of one of the central images of Atenist religion. Boundary stelae were set up in Akhenaten's year 4, decorated with typical Amarna artwork. 15 of these have so far been found. The city was then constructed in haste, with a definite time frame in mind. Akhenaten's intention was that as Egypt's new capital it would endure ...
