Subject: Experimental Tests of OWLS and Source Dependency
A great many discussions on this newsgroup follow the following general
format:

Crackpot: Nobody has ever measured OWLS!
NonCrackpot: Yes they have! Here is a <list of references>
Crackpot: They did them wrong!
NonCrackpot: No they didn't!
Crackpot: Yes they did!
NonCrackpot: No they didn't!
et cetera ad nauseam

I get the distinct impression that, with a few exceptions, NEITHER side
has ever actually gone to the library and read the research papers that
have firmly established the constancy of light in one-way measurements,
and which have disproven emission theory.

This results in a rather low level of discussion. I have often thought
that maybe I should email everybody scans of the papers from my
personal collection. Except that most everybody has false email
addresses.

OK, how about supplying links. Whoops, I bump into copyright law. I
cannot just go around photocopying copyrighted material and publishing
it on the web, that is verboten.

On closer reading, there is a loophole related to "fair use." I can
make personal copies, and reading between the lines (the rules don't
exactly say it, but they don't deny it), it appears that I may be able
to distribute a limited number of copies among the members of a small
group for educational purposes.

Assuming this to be true for a small web discussion group, I have done
the following. I have set up a web page which will be valid for a
one-week period.
http://imaginary_nematode.home.comcast.net/LightSpeed.htm
Today is April 8. After April 15, I am deleting the page.

During this limited period, members of the sci.physics.relativity
discussion group may download, for their personal use,

Krisher et al. (1990)
Turner and Hill (1964)
Gagnon et al. (1988)
Beckmann and Mandics (1965)
Alvager et al. (1964)
Filipas and Fox (1964)
Brecher (1977)

Repeat: after April 15, I -will- delete the page. I have no desire to
get sued.

Let's see a higher level of discussion, guys. Let's discuss the actual
experiments instead of handwaving.

Jerry
