Publishing in peer review papers is the realm of mainstream science and has its place. It also takes a long time. When were talking about a population and world at risk, someone needs to to be brave and venture forth with some observations and information, willing to take flack.

I didn't say he was an expert because of what his Dad did. I said he's brilliant and the kind of person who is way ahead of the class. Who his dad is contributed to that. Look at how far ahead he was of the slashdot crowd on the "Wilma the Capacitor" story published in 2006 at http://pesn.com/2005/10/25/9600196_Wilma_Capacitor/ just recently confirmed by science in April http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/04/100413202850.htm He was totally lambasted by people such as you in Slashdot in 2006 http://hardware.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/10/26/1158233&tid=232&tid=14

He might not be 100% correct, but he's a lot closer than what you're getting from the mainstream press.

My schooling including graduate work was in the biological sciences. My career is in renewable energy. The college traning has been helpful; but not having a college degree in one's area of professional interest does not disqualify one from being able to learn and become very knowledgeable in a field. The experts in the oil industry are not talking. They are cowards.

You can't dismiss the evidence that this guy is an information spunge and far ahead of the class in his drive to do things.
"I was doing College level Chemistry by 5th Grade. I was doing rocketry, mapping and a lot more before high school. I was breeding plants before I was 11. My bedroom was a radio station for 8 years (Ham) during the time I built transmitters, antenna and receivers."
He's in the far upper reaches of the bell curve in nerd world.

Give the guy a break. Mispelling, all caps, bad punctuation, is all common among nerds. It should be seen as certification, not discrediting. Some of the most brilliant people are awful spellers. They were to busy imaging ways to invent the next wigget to worry about how to spell widget.

I remember when an article by Paul Noel was linked from Slashdow in Oct. 26, 2005 called "Wilma the Capacitor", in which he said: "Energetically speaking, the vortex that forms in these storms is also a natural particle accelerator, and a massive capacitor bank. As the harmonic circuit develops, it resonates acoustically and functions as a capacitor, extracting the heat from the storm and transmitting it away. Without this electrical circuit, the storm would fail almost instantly due to the accumulation of heat from condensation of water."

You all thought he was crazy and you were all so smart for pointing that Science Daily published an article on April 14, 2010 titled: "Giant Natural Particle Accelerator Above Thunderclouds". Now its official science.

Are you still laughing?

He was right, you were wrong.

No, he isn't just a software engineer, whose dad encoded the software that put the first astronauts on the moon.

Here is what he wrote this morning to me in a moment of reflection:

It isn't possible that I know what I am talking about is it?



For the record.

I hold 3 college degrees with about 240 Semester Hours including Physics (Including calculus based), Chemistry (Organic, Inorganic, analytic, Qantitative and Qualitative , Accounting, Computer Science, Microbiology, Biology, Accounting, Business, Nursing, and much more). Most PhD's have far less than I hold. I was doing College level Chemistry by 5th Grade. I was doing rocketry, mapping and a lot more before high school. I was breeding plants before I was 11. I don't do it now but I know what is going on. My favorite sciences are agriculture and chemistry. My bedroom was a radio station for 8 years (Ham) during the time I built transmitters, antenna and receivers.

I have done extensive exhaustive studies on public education and what works and doesn't work. I have done extensive work on electronics design and embedded programming.

I have traveled 40 US States and 4 foreign countries.

During my work in Mobile County a typical day might take me as far as Washington County or Dauphin Island. I have worked for months on Dauphin Island and the region around it where the Oil industry works out of.

I am not really wanting to publish all of this. I sort of hate credentials stuff. I figure if the facts don't carry the day it is all a lie anyway.

I just though you might like to know.



So before you go jumping all over this story and dismissing things, do some digging. You just might find out that he is actually far ahead of the curve. He knows as much as most industry experts. The difference? He's not afraid to talk.
