So where is the physical experiment backing this statement up?

Do it yourself you lazy bastard.

We know a system of two magnets will not behave differently than a system of two rocks when falling. We do not need convincing, and are not obligated to prove this to you in the method you request. Would you be skeptical if I told you that setting a elmo on fire would heat him up? There is no physical experiment, but we have lots of experience with fire and know what to predict. Science has predictive capabilities that will tell us the outcome. If that isn't good enough for you, drop a pair of magnets yourself.

I saw the flame experiment a while back, but the explanation adds a lot to it. I didn't think about it til this time around, but the flames are almost like little miniature suns. Very cool stuff :D

The burden of proof is on YOU, the lunatic making the outlandish claim. It is not MY job to prove basic physics to you.

Actually it is really Boyd Bushman's claim, as he did or claims to have done the experiment at Lockheed. I asked if you could refute it by an explanation. Calling me a lunatic doesn't really do much.

Your statement is that galileo dropped two stones falling at the rate of gravity proves two magnets would act exactly the same? Does earths magnetic field affect a stone exactly the same as a magnet? How about two nuclear powered solenoids in repulsion?

I agree it's not your job to prove it to me, I was just asking. :undecided:

Bushman seems a crackpot old fool that still craves attention in his retirement

The man who developed the stinger missile system. A man with 26 U.S. patents. A senior research engineer and scientist for Lockheed Martin, senior research engineer for Texas Instruments. Sorry but this doesn't make much sense to me given his credentials.

Boyd B Bushman - Inventor Patent Directory, Page 1

I've already tried explaining high school physics to you. There's no way I'm going to waste my time researching the subject then writing an explanation that you'll dismiss because it isn't pseudoscience.

You are open-minded to lunacy and closed-minded to hard science and the scientific method.

I don't see why you feel the need to spew insults and degrading comments.. I am not close-minded to hard science, but at the same time, science is not a religion to me, and isn't always correct and can't always explain everything, as history has shown more than once. I do agree objects fall at a rate of 9.8 meters per second^2, but does that mean there is no exception to the rule?

Also I really would like to hear your explanation of how gravity works on a quantum level. This is not an attack, you seem to be an informed individual so that is why I ask.

You are a lost cause. For the sake of my sanity, I'm done here.

Again I didn't intend to piss you off, I am just a person with questions. I found the video interesting, and relayed the experiment from a seemingly credible guy who worked for some of the largest defense contractors in the world. Perhaps it is all bs, but you could explain why in a civilized manner, I'm not saying you are obligated to do so. Again I apologize if I offended you, which was not my intention. I am very much interested in gravity, and even more interested in the manipulation of gravity.


Do it yourself you lazy bastard.
How did you come to the conclusion that I am lazy? Because I asked for an scientific explanation why magnets would act the same as any other material object in earths environment? I do lots of experiments with wireless energy, build all my own setups, as I have been building things my whole life. I have even built Bushman's sound levitation device.

We know a system of two magnets will not behave differently than a system of two rocks when falling. We do not need convincing, and are not obligated to prove this to you in the method you request.
I agree you are not obligated to prove it to me, and I never said you were..

There is no physical experiment, but we have lots of experience with fire and know what to predict. Science has predictive capabilities that will tell us the outcome.

And I agree that science has wonderful predictive capabilities, but are those predictions 100% correct 100% of the time?

If that isn't good enough for you, drop a pair of magnets yourself.
Good one.
