I received many anonymous telephone calls in strong and fervid support

of my proposals: (i) TIME HAS INERTIA and the rejection of the Principles of

Conservation of Energy and Constancy of the Speed of Light, (ii) PUTTING

VENUS IN AN ORBIT SIMILAR TO THE ORBIT OF THE EARTH, (iii) ALTERING THE

TILT OF THE EARTH to avert meteorological disasters and pernicious epidemics.

The callers feel that the current explanations of the nature of TIME

(various variations on the Space-Time Riemannian Manifold-themes) are total-

ly unconvincing and unsound. They feel that my proposals are sound, con-

vincing, cogent and realistic.

The anonymity of the callers is understandable. Association with

radically bold and dauntless ideas is very often treated as an act of

recusancy (recall that Copernicus, Galileo and many others were silenced

and subject to a great deal of hardship for their bold and intrepid ideas).

I do not expect from anyone any heroic action on my behalf, however,

I would like to encourage those who find my proposals to their liking

to express their feelings and rely on the openmindedness of the others.

Beware of the physics mafia. They are out to control society through the
control of the physical world. Already, they have prevented generations of
otherwise ambitious and adventurous souls from travelling faster than the
speed of light. Who knows where it will stop? By keeping the secrets
of the Inertia of Time, Biological Transmutations, Neutrino Souls, patented
Antigravity machines, the great Larson (peace be with him!), and the
fatal and obvious flaws that would destroy quantum mechanics and special
relativity, all to themselves, they are seeking to ruin humanity and
take total control of our lives.

I even know who they are. But if I told you, I would have to kill you.

Some of these ideas have a strong stench of the influence of Velikovski's.

Big brother *IS NOT* watching you (or your friends...)

Imagine that... Public-opinion polls to do science. Let me then go one step
further and propose media-directed science! (NOT!!!) :-)

I absolutely don't care how many people THINK whether you're right or wrong
(named or anonymous), or how the public FEELS about your "radically bold"
ideas. If you can back up your ideas, then and only then do you have sound,
CONVINCING, cogent and realistic proposals. That is why there are
specialized-field refereed periodicals. If you can convince the referees,
your proposals have a future; otherwise, your ideas fall in the category of
perpetual motion engines. Live with it.

I must have missed the cosmic engineering posts. What did THEY claim?
How did they propose to DO this? How would an NEW TILT affect
epidemics? Does SCI.MED knwo about this?

So, for that matter, did hundreds of cranks.

How can an idea be daunted?
