Would there have been transistors in the Roswell Spaceship wreckage?
This is an
important question to be certain about. There is increasing evidence
of the
importance of the Roswell situation. Physical wreckage from an
extraterrestrial
spaceship would inevitably be studied. The simplest components
of the superior
alien technology would be understood, copied and used in human technology.
Considering the cold-war hysteria that existed from the mid-1940s to
the early
1970s, the greatest possible secrecy would likely be used where possible.
So the following vital points need consideration.
1. Did one or two alien spaceships built and operated by nonhumans
crash near
Roswell and Corona New Mexico in early July 1947?
YES. The initial declaration by the Army Air Force of exactly
that, has been multiply
confirmed by many witnesses, involving a wide variety of activities
directly related to
transport and handling of aliens and alien materials. Other events
corroborate this,
including the extraordinary secrecy and security used in the Roswell
situation, far
beyond even the handling of nuclear weapons. Recent mass destruction
of historical
documents of details such as telephone records of the Roswell air base
(which should
not have been done) are just continuing verifications. Finally
American Computer Co.
has claimed to now be in possession of about 20,000 pages of engineering
notes
made of Roswell crash debris, and is verifying them and preparing releases
for this year.
2. Would transistors be in technology that is one thousand to
one MILLION years in
advance of the human race?
YES. Electricity, electrostatic fields and magnetic fields are
fundamental forces of
the universe. Electricity is extremely versatile, currently used
for computation,
sensing, lighting and mechanical movement. For some areas, like
intense computation,
light and holography may eventually prove to be best, but elsewhere,
small control
computers might be considered more appropriate for tasks such as door
opening
and closing, simply because less interfacing would be needed.
Transistors might be
found only on silicon wafer microcircuits, but they should be expected
to be found,
beyond any reasonable doubt.
3. Would transistors be detectable in advanced alien technology?
YES. Transistors would be expected in various forms and sizes
to do different
functions, so some would be easier to identify. At least some
would be used in
signal amplification purposes, and that would be detectable through
experimentation.
Skilled experts would be given the task of searching, and the equivalent
of a triode
vacuum tube would be understandable. (Apparently a mass-storage
memory component
was not understood 50 years ago, and is only now being researched by
ACC).
4. Were the crash and announcement of the transistor separated
by enough time to
allow the transistor to be detected?
YES. The alien spaceships went down near Roswell and Corona NM
in early July
1947. The transistor was announced in December 1947. That
is plenty of time to
research debris that by even its appearance (most likely microcircuits,
some of which
would be visible) indicated electronic circuitry.
5. Could the transistor have been under development separately
from the Roswell
spaceship debris study, and just coincidentally been discovered at
virtually the exact
same time that it would have been discovered in the alien technology?
PROBABLY NOT. The initial patent filings by AT&T - Bell Labs
were disputed because
of the lack of engineering research provided to prove they had discovered
it (and not just
stole it from someone else). Some of the 50 year old engineering
notes now in possession
of ACC strongly indicate the transistor was discovered in the Roswell
crash debris. In
addition, ACC claims to have a copy of a "life insurance policy"
that one of more of the
estates of Shockley, Brattain and Bardeen required of Bell labs in
return for fraudulently
claiming to have invented the transistor. (Since the document
can continue to function
as a "life insurance policy" to whoever holds it, it may not be soon
released).
Upon realizing the FACT of the Roswell and Corona Extraterrestrial spaceship
downings,
the answers to the other relevant questions become certain beyond a
reasonable doubt,
indicating that the transistor (and who knows how much more) has been
discovered within
alien spaceship components, this situation kept secret, and used to
enormously enrich
those who were permitted to share the secrets. When "Roswell"
is accepted as fact,
the rest becomes logically INEVITABLE.
The weblink:
http://www.american-computer.com/roswell.htm
contains a description of the continuing investigation of this, including
discovery of
electronic components new to human technology, yet explained in 50
year old
engineering notes.
----------------------------------------------------------
Some individuals have commented that the transistor had already been
invented and
existed at the time of the Roswell spaceship crashes. Such a
claim is NONSENSE,
as can be easily proved.
First, such a claim is LEGALLY IMPOSSIBLE. Inventions cannot be
repatented. Once
the patent expires, it can never be patented again. And AT&T-Bell
Labs would have had
their patent application denied (It was challenged, on the topic of
inadequate research).
Second, such a claim is a virtual HUMAN IMPOSSIBILITY. Humans
operate with various
predictable intentions. A major human intention is GREED.
This effects all humans
to some extent, but for some it is overpowering. If transistors
had been invented but
not patented by the inventor, someone else would have done so.

Air Force Press Release, San Jose Mercury News, Jan. 1995 -- Air Force

recovering remains of a manufactured object considered non-terrestrial
in origin.
I think you're on to something.
This is an impossible argument to sustain, regardless of whether
transistors were actually present in the roswell craft (assuming point
1, deleted above). It may well be that transistors would have been
surpassed aeons ago by such an advanced life form. Further, it is not
necessarily true that transistors are better than valves (aka vacuum
tubes), as under certain conditions, these devices are more reliable
and less susceptible to things like EMP. Perhaps an alien life form
would have been able to construct miniature valves, if miniaturization
is even to be assumed a prerequisite. Finally, even if transistors
were present in a found roswell object of the sort you describe, there
is no evidence that either the US or any other Gov't would have had
the technology to even discover them in the 40s or even until quite
recently--especially if they were embedded in silicon-type wafers.
Therefore, you cannot say at all that they should be found, beyond a
reasonable doubt. Rather, one can only say that it was possible,
rather than impossible.

Again, see the point above; you apparently accept the idea that only
now would such a device be detectable. What mode of experimentation
would have detected such amplification transistors in tiny silicon
wafers 50 years ago? If we had had that technology to detect them,
then there would have been no particular advance presented by alien
technology and hence, you undercut your own argument.

How convenient. The one document you purport to be able to vindicate
the theory that ATT stole the transistor from Roswell researches has
neither been seen by you, nor anyone else who can testify as to its
contents. As for concurrent discovery, there are literally thousands
of important discoveries that are made concurrently in science and
engineering, which often leads to Patent interventions or later,
infringement suits. Calculus springs to mind, as an unpatentable
discovery made virtually simultaneously by both Leibnitz and Newton.
As for the fact that the ATT patent was disputed, again, this proves
nothing at all other than the fact that the theory and technology used
to ultimately make transistors was widely known and being pursued by
several corporations and scientists. This is natural in any field of
science and engineering as most scientists tend to share a certain
level of their findings and theories along the way toward a seminal
invention. All one needs to validate a patent claim is proof that the
exact object invented did not exist in the prior art, that it did not
appear in publication internationally, and that it is not an obvious
improvement over an existing device. Anyone who really wanted to
dispute ATT patent would have filed an intervention and would have
had to demonstrate through documentation that they too had made the
same device. Obviously, no one was able to successfully challenge the
claim because such proof was lacking. Even if there were a successful
or believable challenge, that would simply undercut the argument that
these were secrets kept at Roswell, as one would have to show that
their research would have been available to ATT (i.e., a reasonable
search of the literature would have revealed to ATT that such a device
had already been invented), and therefore their patent claim lacked
novelty. If it were a trade secret, they would have had to prove that
ATT violated their trade secrecy through surreptitious means.
However, even if the device existed and was being kept secret, that
alone would not invalidate the claim because, by definition of what a
secret is, ATT could not have known of such a device. Your argument
simply lacks logic and an understanding of patent law.

Even if your above arguments were true, this statement simply does not
follow in any sense of logical construction, certainly one cannot say
that merely because Roswell occurred before the invention of cellular
phones, that there is an inevitable connection between the two. I was
born some years after Roswell, does that make my existence dependent
upon it? (leaving aside existentialist philosophical meanderings for
the moment). It's this kind of inexplicable illogic that gives
legitimate UFO researchers a bad name and associates us with...shall
we say...neurotic delusions. Hopefully, a careful checking of the
facts and patent law, as well as an introduction to simple deductive
reasoning will clear things up.

ok...that clears up one error in the first posting. Inadequate
research merely means that the patent examiner was not initially
convinced that ATT had a workable device; i.e., that they had not
demonstrated that their invention could be reduced to practice.
Patents can be claimed for inventions never actually constructed--in
fact, the vast majority of patents are for plans of devices that are
never ever made, but are claimed so that corporations (who get the
license to patented inventions of their researchers usually) can get a
lock on obvious improvements to these devices and so that they can
prevent other similar or actual inventions from being patented by
rivals (because once patented, an invention is by definition in the
"prior art" for any subsequent researcher).

this is weak. if that were true, virtually any device could be said
to be inevitable, which is clearly not so, otherwise all patents would
be denied because all inventions would be "obvious". all inventions
must necessarily build upon previous research and devices; patentable
improvements on existing devices are patentable precisely because they
are not obvious or inevitable consequences.
And of course 60 years ago you could advance the same argument for tubes ;-)

It's easy when you just make up unverifiable "facts". But we do know that "ACC" is a fraud.
There's no devices, no company, nothing.

The notion that transistors were deduced by looking at technology "one thousand
to one MILLION years in advance of the human race" is like saying that you gave
a Cray supercomputer to a bunch of neanderthals, and six months later, they used
its design to invent the abacus.
The notion that anyone takes the longest-troll-on-earth seriously is even more
laughable than abacus-wielding neanderthals, though.

For one thing, 108 years is a very long time! In my comparitively
short life I've seen computers go from beheamoths using vacuum
tubes through the discrete solid state era and into high density
integration- and all of it was very well documented. Storage
density has increased a billionfold.
The laser is a good illustration of the development of
technology. It was predicted long before one was ever made as the
physics of the laser is an outcome of basic quantum
electrodynamics. The construction of the first maser showed that
the principle works. At that point it was really a technological
race just to see who'd get there first.
The transistor was the same way. The idea of a solid-state valve
equivalent was long in the mind of many researchers.
Posters like the above show their ignorance of history, science
and technology. They don't understand how science or technology
progresses. To them, prior to 1950 we were all just banging rocks
together. And yet, the 18th century was an explosion of science
and technology. Why? One prosperity. Western society had become
wealthy enough to devote a large amount of resources to pure
research. Two, communications. Faster ships and rail transport
meant that information flowed faster than ever, bringing people
in contact with each other. News of an invention that might have
taken 20 or even 50 years to move from one end of Europe to the
other now took only days.
And so on. But to someone who is totally ignorant or history and
technology, it could only be spacemen ;-)

If your public library has PBS videos, I'd strongly recommend the
video set _Connections_ by James Burke; even the companion book would
do as a starting point.
What you will find there is fascinating, some of which is relevant to
your posting.
First, all knowledge in the sciences is approximately cumulative, and
the number of researchers alive now is greater than the _total_ number
of curious people in all times past. So one can expect a huge growth
rate.
Second, the progression you are pointing out isn't really a
progression. Western man started exploring optics and magnetism at
about the same time as he started exploring the use of explosives to
propel projectiles. Your latter example comes from the long history
of attempting to understand those mechanisms, your former from the
chemistry of explosives, two divergent and overlapping paths.
BTW, we still can't shoot moving aircraft out of the air with a laser
beam.
You should explore the history of science. It really is quite
fascinating. And needs neither devils nor aliens for explanation.

Vastly better communication between scientists, scientists getting paid rather
than working on their "hobby", the demands of war giving unlimited research
funds, greater population so more scientists, more scientific work pulished
inthe last twenty years then in the history of mankind, more universities to
train scientists, more people going to university, even the invention of the
PC. Lots of reasons for the increased rate of discovery.

The Airborne Laser Lab managed, under nearly perfect conditions, with
full foreknowledge of the trajectory, to shoot down five sidewinders
over the course of 11 years.
This differs from "we" being able to shoot down _aircraft_ in
approximately the same complexity that the Wright bros first flight
differed from a manned mission to Mars.
BTW, the conclusion of the ALL experiment was that laser shootdown of
aircraft was not feasible. Which explains why the research was
terminated a decade ago and has never resumed.
marty
Not true. There was
an experiment that used a high-powered laser to cut the wing off of a plane in flight.

The keyword here is _planning_. The SDI had a lot of blue-sky
planning that didn't/isn't going to pan out. At this point it is
probably good to trot out one of Peter Salus' old sig lines: the
difference between theory and practice is always larger in practice.

It is a _huge_ step, because of the way a laser has to work in order
to cut metal. Boost phase missiles are on fixed easy to track
trajectories, while fighter aircraft are constantly and unpredictably
changing the profile they present. They also are firing back, and the
kind of platform needed to house a laser capable of the energy and
impluse levels necessary is going to fly like a KC-135.

There are more than vibration problems. Using a laser against metal
has some really unique problems because the laser vaporizes the metal
and the vapor cloud makes a great energy diffuser. Also, high-power
and long-pulse are not usually found in the same laser. And, of
course, some materials are better at diffusing the energy than others,

applications before a Mars landing.

If in fact, Roswell was a site of absolute proff of extraterestrial life
( decades ago ). The E.T.s must have listened to the same news casts
we do and havent thought a 2nd trip would be worthwhile. Can you blame
them.
Just think... here you are standing by the road side after your car (for
unknown reasons) stalls.
A very tall extremely thin orange skinned entitiy walks up to you and
says "take me to your leader". An historic event for mankind and you
say " he's busy in the oval office you'll have to wait till Monica
leaves".
Humor aside, if there is a more advanced race out in the starts
somewhere i really do wish they would stop playing around with us and
give us advice on how to live with our neighbors.
Plus another thing that I don't get is that if these aliens flew a
million light years just to get here. How did they do that? The only
way to fly the speed of light, is to be light (or energy). Because, for
matter, the faster you go, the heavier you get. So you'll never reach
the speed of light unless you can turn youself into pure energy while
flying, and turn yourself back, when going to land.
Well, these are my thoughts on this subject. I still believe in aliens
though, but I just don't think that they have arived YET. Maybe soon.
First, can they help us? For starters, the microbiology of our planet
would have to be examined in it's entirety to help us medically. That
could take a while. If they give us the antidote for AIDS, then why not
cancer, then why not aging. They would permanently alter our existence.
Our economics, politics, or ability to "just get along" involve human
nature; the complexities to that one are enormous and equally fraught
with negative side-effects.
Second, will they help us? They may not want to help us progress; we
are a pretty destructive bunch. Throughout our history we have managed
to spread disease, warfare, slavery, genocide, and other such
pleasantries to the new lands we find. Would you help us on our way to
other planets.

Says a lot of people. There are a lot of well written technical
discussions of the various bits of SDI blue-sky and why, given current
technology or technology likely available in the next fifty years, the
technical problems are insurmountable.
Also, if you read the declassified reports on the SDI research, you
find a lot of attempts to do something that didn't work.
Very little is actually "kept secret" for any length in time.
Remember that the leading publication in the industry is called
"aviation leak."
All of the SDI ideas were based on concepts with pretty simple
physics, which means that it was pretty easy to demonstrate the
difficulty behind them.

You missed my point about the KC-135. It isn't its ability to aim a

Cutting composites provides a _different_ problem, since carbon works
just as well to create a diffusion cloud.
Most aviations fuels are not very explosive, since one needs to have a
vapor to explode and a lot of effort is put into keeping them liquid.
You might go back and check the story about the FAA's attempts to get
a 737 to blow up on landing and the stuff they had to do to get it to
do so.

Well, what you really need is a laser that generates high power short
duration pulses at a high frequency _and_ the ability to hit the same
spot over and over again. The first two combine to make the laser
hard to build, since such lasers have a tendency to self destruct.
The third is where fighter manuevarbility comes into play, since the
source of the laser is likely to be an easy target.

First of all the roswell craft did not "crash",
the US government shocked the hell out of them
by ionizing the upper atmosphere, the craft, bieng
powered by gravity, was covered in fine wires, and
the biengs piloting it were connected to it, they were put
unconcious by the shock and subsequencly crashed.
They are not playing with us they want contact,
but the majority of people will commit suicide if
they knew the religion that they had utter belief in all their

but the thought of another bieng having supreme power

Tracking and shooting down are far different problems. Tracking
merely requires that enough energy reach the target to get a good
reflection back. _low_ energy is much better for tracking.
The ground-based AA system would have the same problem that all such
systems have now: it is a relatively easy target and would have to be
heavily defeneded.

No-nonsense? Well, I guess that is relative. Anybody remember

Could it possibly be that he was sick of doing the show and just wanted to
retire? Doing it this way, under some undisclosed, secret threat, is just
his way of giving all his loyal listeners something to talk about after
he's gone. If he's doing it right, one of two things will happen:
A) He'll come back on the air (to much publicity) in a little while.
He'll say, "the threat my family was under has been lifted, but only under
the guarantee of complete secrecy, so I can't talk about it". Even
better, hint around that it's the GOVERNMENT that somehow doesn't want him
to talk.
B) He'll somehow fake his or a family member's persecution (or demise) and
cash in via other media. He could write a book that he releases "from
seclusion" or he could start a website or whatever.

::: Clear Channel To Take Over Jacor :::
By JOHN NOLAN
.c The Associated Press
CINCINNATI (AP) -- Clear Channel Communications Inc. is taking
over Jacor Communications Inc. in a $3.4 billion stock deal
announced Thursday that creates a powerhouse with more than
450 radio stations.
If given regulatory approval next year, the buyout will reduce to
three the number of major players in the rapidly changing radio
industry, along with Chancellor Media Corp. and CBS Corp.
Jacor, based in Covington, Ky., near Cincinnati, went through its
own buyout binge since ownership rules were relaxed in 1996.
The company also provides syndicated radio programming,
including talk shows featuring Rush Limbaugh, Dr. Dean Edell,
Dr. Laura Schlessinger and Art Bell.
In recent years, Clear Channel and Jacor were virtually tied as
the second-largest radio company, but they slipped down the
rankings as CBS acquired Infinity Broadcasting and American
Radio Systems and Chancellor announced plans to acquire
Capstar Broadcasting Corp.
Clear Channel said it hopes to obtain Justice Department and
Federal Communications Commission approval by Sept. 30,
1999, for the deal, which would make Jacor a subsidiary of
Clear Channel.
``It doesn't feel much like a takeover to us,'' Randy Michaels,
who will remain as Jacor's chief executive officer, said
Thursday. ``We rather actively sought this merger out. We're
very enthusiastic about it. It feels like a partnership.''
Lowry Mays, chief executive officer of Clear Channel, who
attended a news conference with Michaels, said he expects
the deal to give the combined companies more market punch.
Mays said he is pleased to obtain the services of Michaels,
regarded in the industry as a programming wizard.
The purchase will give Clear Channel, based in San Antonio,
454 radio stations in 101 U.S. markets, as well as 20 television
stations and outdoor advertising businesses in 25 countries.
Under the deal, each share of Jacor stock would be converted
into 1.4 shares of Clear Channel stock. At $37 a share, the
closing price of Clear Channel stock Wednesday, the deal
would be worth $3.429 billion. Clear Channel also will assume
more than $1.26 billion in Jacor debt. Jacor's closing price
Wednesday was $40.12 1/2.
The companies said the final purchase price will be based on
the average closing price of Clear Channel's common shares
during a 25-trading day period prior to the closing date.
Clear Channel shares dropped 37 1/2 cents to close at $36.62 1/2
Thursday on the New York Stock Exchange. Jacor shares rose
43 3/4 cents on the Nasdaq Stock Market to $40.56 1/4.
Clear Channel already has $2.8 billion in debt, management said.
But the companies said they plan to use their resources -- including
almost $1 billion in marketable securities -- to pay down that debt
by the time the deal closes.
Clear Channel and Jacor last year had combined radio station
revenue of about $1.1 billion, which would rank third behind
Chancellor and CBS. Clear Channel would rank second in
station ownership.
Jacor had recently been seen as a takeover target for both CBS
and Chancellor, especially since CBS plans to sell part of its
radio business to the public in an offering estimated at around
$3 billion.
The deal appears a good fit for both companies, said Jim
Duncan, president of Duncan's American Radio LLC in
Indianapolis. Duncan estimates the companies may have
to sell 18 to 30 radio stations in six markets where they have
overlapping operations: Louisville, Ky.; Dayton and Cleveland,
Ohio; Jacksonville and Tampa, Fla., and Houston.
``In a deal this size, that would be really negligible,'' Duncan said.
Because the stock market's recent drop has hurt broadcast
companies' stocks, Duncan said he doesn't expect a competitor
to try and outbid Clear Channel for Jacor.
Broadcasting stocks have fallen as investors worry about an
advertising slowdown. From the market's peak in mid-July
through Wednesday, Jacor shares had plunged 38 percent
while Clear Channel dropped 40 percent.

I don't know about any blue-green high-power stuff either. But there
has been a lot of progress recently in those frequencies in low power,
so perhaps the high power will be along shortly.

Chuck,
Why do you say that?
I do not know of any laser capable of cutting off an aircrafts wing
in flight, but I see no reason it couldn't be done. It would just
be expensive. Stingers cost waaaaaaay less.

The US Govt. did create a very large and powerful laser which was capable of puncturing certain parts of moving aircraft. This technology was initially created as a ground station and eventually modified and put into an air force jet with the capability to track a moving target. This technology was being developed in the late 1960's and 1970's. It was the impetus for Reagon's Star Wars program but was eventually scrapped because the laser, even as powerful as it was, was only strong enough to cut through one or two miles of interference in the atmosphere such as dust. It can only be a short range weapon. It's massive size and safety concerns make conventional weapons much more appealing. Even though our computer technology today is much greater than back then, and although our tracking ability has increased twenty fold, it is still useless because the laser is crippled by the fact that it simply can not cut through the dust in our atmosphere.

What I think about The crash is that, before the crash, man has never
had enough technology to invent the most powerful bomb on Earth. After
that crash, for some reason, they built it. As to this day, not even a
lot of countries in the world knows how it works. They just know that
it does work. Coincident? Maybe...
Plus another thing that I don't get is that if these aliens flew a
million light years just to get here. How did they do that? The only
way to fly the speed of light, is to be light (or energy). Because, for
matter, the faster you go, the heavier you get. So you'll never reach
the speed of light unless you can turn youself into pure energy while
flying, and turn yourself back, when going to land.
Well, these are my thoughts on this subject. I still believe in aliens
though, but I just don't think that they have arived YET. Maybe soon.
Would there have been transistors in the Roswell Spaceship wreckage?
This is an
important question to be certain about. There is increasing evidence
of the
importance of the Roswell situation. Physical wreckage from an
extraterrestrial
spaceship would inevitably be studied. The simplest components
of the superior
alien technology would be understood, copied and used in human technology.
Considering the cold-war hysteria that existed from the mid-1940s to
the early
1970s, the greatest possible secrecy would likely be used where possible.
So the following vital points need consideration.
1. Did one or two alien spaceships built and operated by nonhumans
crash near
Roswell and Corona New Mexico in early July 1947?
YES. The initial declaration by the Army Air Force of exactly
that, has been multiply
confirmed by many witnesses, involving a wide variety of activities
directly related to
transport and handling of aliens and alien materials. Other events
corroborate this,
including the extraordinary secrecy and security used in the Roswell
situation, far
beyond even the handling of nuclear weapons. Recent mass destruction
of historical
documents of details such as telephone records of the Roswell air base
(which should
not have been done) are just continuing verifications. Finally
American Computer Co.
has claimed to now be in possession of about 20,000 pages of engineering

made of Roswell crash debris, and is verifying them and preparing releases
for this year.
2. Would transistors be in technology that is one thousand to
one MILLION years in
advance of the human race?
YES. Electricity, electrostatic fields and magnetic fields are
fundamental forces of
the universe. Electricity is extremely versatile, currently used
for computation,
sensing, lighting and mechanical movement. For some areas, like
intense computation,
light and holography may eventually prove to be best, but elsewhere,
small control
computers might be considered more appropriate for tasks such as door
opening
and closing, simply because less interfacing would be needed.
Transistors might be
found only on silicon wafer microcircuits, but they should be expected
to be found,
beyond any reasonable doubt.
3. Would transistors be detectable in advanced alien technology?
YES. Transistors would be expected in various forms and sizes
to do different
functions, so some would be easier to identify. At least some
would be used in
signal amplification purposes, and that would be detectable through
experimentation.
Skilled experts would be given the task of searching, and the equivalent
of a triode
vacuum tube would be understandable. (Apparently a mass-storage
memory component
was not understood 50 years ago, and is only now being researched by
ACC).
4. Were the crash and announcement of the transistor separated
by enough time to
allow the transistor to be detected?
YES. The alien spaceships went down near Roswell and Corona NM
in early July
1947. The transistor was announced in December 1947. That
is plenty of time to
research debris that by even its appearance (most likely microcircuits,
some of which
would be visible) indicated electronic circuitry.
5. Could the transistor have been under development separately
from the Roswell
spaceship debris study, and just coincidentally been discovered at
virtually the exact
same time that it would have been discovered in the alien technology?
PROBABLY NOT. The initial patent filings by AT&T - Bell Labs
were disputed because
of the lack of engineering research provided to prove they had discovered
it (and not just
stole it from someone else). Some of the 50 year old engineering
notes now in possession
of ACC strongly indicate the transistor was discovered in the Roswell
crash debris. In
addition, ACC claims to have a copy of a "life insurance policy"
that one of more of the
estates of Shockley, Brattain and Bardeen required of Bell labs in
return for fraudulently
claiming to have invented the transistor. (Since the document
can continue to function
as a "life insurance policy" to whoever holds it, it may not be soon
released).
Upon realizing the FACT of the Roswell and Corona Extraterrestrial spaceship
downings,
the answers to the other relevant questions become certain beyond a
reasonable doubt,
indicating that the transistor (and who knows how much more) has been
discovered within
alien spaceship components, this situation kept secret, and used to
enormously enrich
those who were permitted to share the secrets. When "Roswell"
is accepted as fact,
the rest becomes logically INEVITABLE.
The weblink:
http://www.american-computer.com/roswell.htm
contains a description of the continuing investigation of this, including
discovery of
electronic components new to human technology, yet explained in 50
year old
engineering notes.
----------------------------------------------------------
Some individuals have commented that the transistor had already been
invented and
existed at the time of the Roswell spaceship crashes. Such a
claim is NONSENSE,
as can be easily proved.
First, such a claim is LEGALLY IMPOSSIBLE. Inventions cannot be
repatented. Once
the patent expires, it can never be patented again. And AT&T-Bell
Labs would have had
their patent application denied (It was challenged, on the topic of
inadequate research).
Second, such a claim is a virtual HUMAN IMPOSSIBILITY. Humans
operate with various
predictable intentions. A major human intention is GREED.
This effects all humans
to some extent, but for some it is overpowering. If transistors
had been invented but
not patented by the inventor, someone else would have done so.

There's a much maligned 'proof' by a Dr Tipler, who demonstrates through
extrapolation of technological advancement against time, amongst other
things, that humans will inhabit the whole galaxy within 400,000yrs, and not
one person will leave our soloar system.
Maybe we're never gonna know, because our comprehension of all new concepts
is chained to our past experience. (although advocates of psychoactives will
insist we can break these chains.) i.e. We can all imagine huge numbers,
but can you really comprehend infinity. Our experience and current knowledge
tells us it's there, but we can't get anywhere near it.
I believe the most powerful bomb on earth is that love bomb we all gotta
drop on each other. Too many greed bomb's around, I hope our visitors could
leave the plans to that soon.
p.s.I have experienced a single incident which I attribute to sleep
paralysis. But, whoa, it seemed very real.

No, as is shown weekly
Can we let this go?

CAN YOU STOP CROSSPOSTING THIS STUFF?
Probably not. If semiconductors of any kind were in use in a craft
constructed by those possessing vastly superior technology, I would
suspect that VLSICs (very large scale integrated circuits) would
be used. You know, like that 80586 chip which makes this discussion
possible. I would also expect to find field-effect transistors and
thyristors, both of which were unknown to humankind at that date.
I would also expect to find transistors which use semiconductor
compounds such as gallium arsenide as opposed to semiconductor
elements such as germanium.

It seems doubtful but difficult to divine an answer either way. The
steam locomotive was a human contrivance which radically changed the
way humans lived but it grew, flourished and disappeared in just over
100 years. The vacuum tube had a similar life cycle. Other technologies
have changed very little in millenia. The common household broom has
been in use for at least 4000 years with little change nor has the basic
concept of the wheel, the cam, the crank changed much over the ages. So
transistor-based devices may be here to stay or they may soon be found
only in books.

They may be found as discrete devices in high collector dissipation or
RF applications but I would suspect that a greater intelligence would
have overcome these engineering difficulties.

I read that British researchers had been working on amplifying devices
based on Galena crystals since the early 1930's. Like the Magnetron,
I believe American corporate interests and their harlots in Congress
demanded these devices from the British in return for saving their ass
from Hitler.

Absolute and incontravertable bullshit. Someone said "flying
disks" based on second hand knowledge- and possibly speaking
tongue in cheek. No one ever said "one or two alien
spaceships built and operated by nonhumans" until years
later.

Bullshit. You don't even know what the security procedures
are for handling nuclear weapons, so how would you know?
And of course we have the "secrecy" argument: There's
absolutely no evidence, ergo it must be *really* secret.
That line of reasoning can also be used to prove the
exitence of flying monkeys in the west wing of the White
House ;-)

And of course you have proof of this. So why would they

Oh, THAT again! That moron has been making his claim for
years. There's no device, no aliens, no documentation, and
no "American COmputer" either. The picture of the supposed
company on the web page is someone else's building.

You could make the same argument for tubes. Or Leyden jars.
Gotta have Leyden jars; otherwise how could you store
charges? And Whimhurst influence machines- it's the only
efficient way to generate a charge.....
The people who fabricated the first transistors wouldn't
recognize the chips made today if you gave them one. They
wouldn't even have the tools to reverse engineer it.
You think that having an example of a device is enough to
copy it, which whows how little you know. Could an engineer
of the 15th century copy a steam locomotive, even if given
the plans and operating manual? Could RCA, the electronics
leader of the 1930s, have built a computer even if given a
dozen pentiums to work with?
You don't seem to have much of a grasp of real technology.

If you even knew what was an *amplifier! * Plenty of skilled

That's just a lie, plain and simple. *Many* researchers were
working on the problem of developing a solid state analog
to the vacuum tube switch.

Ya, we would understand pong or how to plug it in. But with it crashing all

Hi, David, It's worse than you thought. We get this about once a week
and Mr. Kazlouski doesn't really care that you find some holes in the
spam, here and there. The wisdom is not to quote his whole message in
your response, because some people pay by the byte, to download. Try
sending complaints to ab...@erols.com.
In order for the transistor to have been... what... patented? in Dec of
1947, that means prototypes had to have been around for several years.
But even if it wasn't around for several years, you really ought to seek
medical attention.

I'm keeping my opinion out of this and tossing in something to think
about. Three years ago I accompanied my girlfriend to a family reunion.
Being a pilot, I was told I should go talk to one of her uncles, who had
worked on airplanes in "weird places" all his life. When I finally met
him, he told me:
He didn't work on airplanes per se. He worked on microchips. Back in the
'50s. It doesn't take a degree in computers to be suspicious,
but I wasn't about to call him a liar outright so I probed him a bit: "I
didn't know they microprocessors existed then."
He grinned and said "We had a lot of things that didn't exist. Have you
ever heard of the Blackbird?"
He told me that he was flown out of Las Vegas everyday in a
Superconstellation to "the ranch," where his job was to run
microtransistors through extremes of hot and cold until they failed.
He said "the ranch" was that place that everybody says they keep UFOs.
Then, he looked at them under a microscope to determine the weakness.
Engineers fixed it and his team repeated until the circuit was up to spec.
Anyway, I didn't bother with innuendo and said "So you worked on the
SR-71 at Area 51?"
He said he worked for Hughes at "The Ranch," nodding all the while. Then
he noted that he never actually had hands-on contact with the aircraft,
and that just about all the top secret technology he was was through the
lens of the microscope.
I said "I heard that people hang out outside the McCarran "Janet" parking
lot and write down your license plate, threatening to harrass you if you
didn't fess up."
He said if they did now, they didn't then and hardly anybody knew about it
anyway because the plant was brand new. Besides, he said... What some
loonie could threaten is nothing compared to what the US government would
threaten, and if they caught wind of such activities, he was sure the
Government would gladly solve the problem for you themselves.
Sorry, guys. I never asked The Question: "So WERE there aliens and UFOs?"
In any case, it's hearsay, but it's evidence for you to chew on if you
want to debate whether transistors could have come from Roswell.
Furthermore, in regard to whether the base is still in operation, a friend
of mine taught at a public middle school in Las Vegas up to this year.
Last year, driving some kids to an off-campus event, one of the students
said in the course of conversation that her dad flew out of the airport to
work everyday, "up north," and that he drove a "six-pack." That's all she
knew of what her dad did, except that he wasn't in the military and
sometimes he'd be gone for a couple of days.
Same friend's aunt works in an office within the NTS and said she had an
all points pass except for special areas and events (live-fire training
and stuff.) She doesn't fly in and says they quit running the bus
regularly when the nuclear test facilities closed. Instead, she issued a
fleet van.
One day she drove north through the test site and ran into a
roadblock, where two armed guards ordered her out of the van, took her ID
badge, told her she had no business being there and ordered to get back in
and turn around.
Later
-gatt
And then proceeds to argue for the existence of aliens.
But the question was about aliens using transistors in their version
of technology, no? How likely is that, anyway? Why would they need
transistors? Transistors exist to convert electromagnetic power levels
(transistor=transfer+resistor). Humans found that manipulating variable
EM power leads naturally to things like transistors/vacuum tubes/etc.
The usual means of generating and controlling EM forces is easily
constructed with the materials available raw in the Earth's biosphere;
copper, amber, silicon, etc. Knowledge of something functionally
equivalent to basic EM theory dictates the possible physical
configurations of circuit elements e.g.. coils, capacitors,
semiconductors, etc.
But beings manipulating G forces, at the very least, to propel their
craft, would probably build "gravistors" (tm), or maybe "chronistors"
(also tm), which we wouldn't necessarily recognize, design dictated by
the gravitational and temporal analogs of basic EM theory. What would
such things look like, anyhow? I think it's a safe bet we'd never
mistake them for transistors...
Any ideas?

Would Transistors Have Been in the Roswell Spaceship Wreckage ? (Yes)Would there have been transistors in the Roswell Spaceship wreckage? This is an
important question to be certain about. There is increasing evidence of the
importance of the Roswell situation. Physical wreckage from an extraterrestrial
spaceship would inevitably be studied. The simplest components of the superior
alien technology would be understood, copied and used in human technology.
Considering the cold-war hysteria that existed from the mid-1940s to the early
1970s, the greatest possible secrecy would likely be used where possible.So the following vital points need consideration.
1. Did one or two alien spaceships built and operated by nonhumans crash near
Roswell and Corona New Mexico in early July 1947?YES. The initial declaration by the Army Air Force of exactly that, has been multiply
confirmed by many witnesses, involving a wide variety of activities directly related to
transport and handling of aliens and alien materials. Other events corroborate this,
including the extraordinary secrecy and security used in the Roswell situation, far
beyond even the handling of nuclear weapons. Recent mass destruction of historical
documents of details such as telephone records of the Roswell air base (which should
not have been done) are just continuing verifications. Finally American Computer Co.
has claimed to now be in possession of about 20,000 pages of engineering notes
made of Roswell crash debris, and is verifying them and preparing releases for this year.

INFORMATION CAN NOT BE VERIFIED. A CLOSER LOOK AT ROSWELL WILL SHOW THAT

YOU REFER TO THE US PATENT OFFICE, NOT ANY OF EUROPES. THERE YOU WILL FIND VERY EARLY INDICATION OF THIS TYPE OF TECHNOLOGY COMING OUT OF EUROPE.
Upon realizing the FACT of the Roswell and Corona Extraterrestrial spaceship downings,
the answers to the other relevant questions become certain beyond a reasonable doubt,
indicating that the transistor (and who knows how much more) has been discovered within
alien spaceship components, this situation kept secret, and used to enormously enrich
those who were permitted to share the secrets. When "Roswell" is accepted as fact,
the rest becomes logically INEVITABLE.The weblink:
http://www.american-computer.com/roswell.htmcontains a description of the continuing investigation of this, including discovery of
electronic components new to human technology, yet explained in 50 year old
engineering notes.
----------------------------------------------------------Some individuals have commented that the transistor had already been invented and
existed at the time of the Roswell spaceship crashes. Such a claim is NONSENSE,
as can be easily proved.
First, such a claim is LEGALLY IMPOSSIBLE. Inventions cannot be repatented. Once
the patent expires, it can never be patented again. And AT&T-Bell Labs would have had
their patent application denied (It was challenged, on the topic of inadequate research).
Second, such a claim is a virtual HUMAN IMPOSSIBILITY. Humans operate with various
predictable intentions. A major human intention is GREED. This effects all humans
to some extent, but for some it is overpowering. If transistors had been invented but
not patented by the inventor, someone else would have done so.

I don't know which is worse. The constant re-posting of the
Roswell-transistor thing or the screaming of the Spook-debunkers!
So just listen to me. You are getting very sleepy. There never was a
Roswell UFO crash or more exactly there never were any recovered disks
that collided and crashed. They were all weather balloons. The
newspapers would never lie to you. The government has no reason to lie
about this. They were perfectly willing to admit that the alien ships
had free run of our air space and if there was any captured advanced
technology we'd have been perfectly willing to share it with the Soviet
Union or any other enemies. Bill Clinton never had sex with Monica Lewinsky.
It's all a Republican plot. When you wake up you will believe everything
I've told you. It's true because I say it is! 3, 2, 1.

I notice that you don't address his point about the number
of reported crash sites.
He is wrong about the number, however, there are more than 3
reported. None of them have any decent evidence for them.
Do you believe in the crash site on the Foster Ranch not far
from the debris field?
Opps!
Everyone has dropped that one.
Do you believe in Stanton Friedman's Plains crash site?
Opps!
It turns out that Gerald Anderson got caught hoaxing the
documents and that isn't considered a real site now.
Do you believe in Randle's second crash site (the one he
adopted after abandoning the Foster Ranch crash site?
Opps!
His key witness, Jim Ragsdale, less than two years later
swore an affidavit denying that it took place at that site.
His other key witness, Frank Kaufmann (he of the many names
in Randle's books), changed his story from the first Randle
book to the second Randle book and has been caught in other
lies. (See http://www.roswell.org to see just a few of
them)
One of the members of the family that owns that crash site
have sworn an affidavit that, contrary to what Randle
claims, it was inaccessible to wheeled vehicles until they
put the road in in the 1960s.
Do you like Jim Ragsdale's second crash site?
Stanton Friedman has come out in favor of that site.
But that was only because Randle made a fool out of him
about Gerald Anderson and this was Friedman's revenge.
There ain't no evidence for that site either but Forbes
magazine fould lots of evidence against it.
Now, where did this saucer crash?
>They were all weather balloons. The
>newspapers would never lie to you.
Let's see, the newspapers called it a flying saucer but they
also called it an instrument.
> The government has no reason to lie
>about this.
All the classified documents found so far indicate that the
gov't wasn't lying.

It is *such* a bitch when you're confronted with actual facts, isn't it?
I'm still waiting for the Roswell fans to explain how the FET was patented in
1930 when the saucer didn't crash for another 17 years ;-)
Notice that American Computer Company has become silent? Undoubtedly
the govt got to them. Further pr
why is that?

It was a time machine, obviously.

I'm still waiting to hear which of the many crash sites is
the "real" crash site!
I understand that Schmitt has found another one from July
1947.
Those damn things keep falling out of the sky like clay
pigeons.

So how come they didn't have transistors in the pyramids? Hah!
Well...one possible answer could lie in the fact that alien craft have
presumably been coming here for much longer than the past 51 years.
Cigar shaped craft were reported in the 1800's, some allege that
Michelangelo painted flying craft in the Cistine Chapel work he was
commissioned to paint. If extraterrestrial craft have been coming here
for centuries, simple rational thought would account for what you are
asking. It would mean that some "developments" may have originated from
earlier crashed craft. Though the likelihood, as you move backward in
history is that such devices would have, if understood, been exploited
by individuals rather than governments.
In 1947 the aliens were using defective Floral Tape in their
FTL drives. Estimated failure was almost 87%.

Harry
