Wrong:!!!....
but others have not taken me serious :=)

Speaking for myself Anecdotally, I begin my study of physics seriously in 
grade
school form the writings of physicists who thought physics should be taught 
at the
grade school level. By high school I had designed both atomic bombs and atomic
rockets. Applied physics I learned in two years of government electronic 
schools.
 
By the time I actually got around to taking a university basic physics course
in (1977)learning how to measure marbles), I was so bored I drew an atomic 
bomb
on a shrinky dink (clear plastic that shrinks on heating) placed it pointed 
to the bibliography reference in "Lawrence and Oppenheimer" index listing on 
"How to Build An Atomic Bomb" and handed it in to the physics department for 
extra credit.

When the chrome foil wrap and silver thread fuse was removed from the bomb 
shaped shrinky dink the device "blew up" in size on a overhead projector for 
classroom display (show and tell).
 
They did not take me serious as the had the preconcieced notion that it was 
not possible as they thought it would take teams of best scientist and 
millions of dollars to do what I had done.
 
I then walked from the university without withdrawing so flunked out. 
 
Several years later I placed my work against the work of other student 
publications in the Chicago Tribune and Progressive Magazine and learned mine
was complete as they were missing parts and theory constructing duds. 
 
I then called they FBI and told them I designed an atomic bomb and to come out
and pick up my report. They had no problem taking me seriously' but, that is 
another story----.
 
My point is that if you have not learned physics before entering junior high 
you just do not have a chance of catching up.
 
Even the graduate level course work in physics I took was taught at the 
elementary level with not even elementary theoretical analysis or the 
definitive proofs required or understanding beyond rote memorization. As a 
result most physics Ph.Ds I converse with  cannot even analyze new theories 
against those they were taught.
 
Study of physics at a university even to graduate level (I have graduate 
level credits) would appear to be a waste of time until peconceived notions 
are discarded. 

Kelly, I do not play games. 
I recommend physics be learned behind the barn from forbidden knowledge books.

Misinformation, He explained the letter to Roosevelt he signed as concocted 
by Enrico Fermi to obtain funding to build Einstein's invention. The pretense 
was that the device was not invented as funding was available for research 
and not development so the wording omitted the fact it was invented to obtain 
funding easily available to discover something while ignoring what has 
already been discovered.

This scientific method (unethical but needed method) of getting grants worked 
and first used by Roger Bacon in the 12th or 13th century on the King to get 
funds to transmute base metals to gold. ..Of general interest -- reading the 
French text of Roger Bacon, he coined the words fusion and fission 
respectively to describe the process of making gold from lighter or heavier 
elements--Believe it or not but check your library for Bacon's published 
works for verification. I recall that reference was in his work measuring the 
velocity of light.

I have no reason to believe Einstein built the device he invented. The actual 
builders of the Manhattan device wrote their names and placed them in a time 
capsule not to be uncovered for 100 years in the year 2045. I suspect Fermi 
was on the list. No proof accessible as the location of the time capsule is 
probably lost. Reference to the capsule can be found in the library of 
Congress publication entitled "Lawrence and Oppenheimer". Knowledge of it had 
leaked in a letter written by one of the builders sent to his mother's sister 
and published.

Your syntex (time case)error, The web page author quoted Einstein's 1955 
statements.

Wrong the only infinite amount requirement is when you attempt to go from 
zero to light speed instanteously (very short period of time). As this is 
what particle accelerators do, they are under the limit so that laws momentum 
are conserved as proven. Chemical rockets have prior velocity limitations 
(mass and height), so the equation is not applicable there. Atomic rockets 
that do no use high specific impulse or instantaneous acceleration have no 
limit on velocity. The divide by zero consequence of a relativistic observer 
equation is defined to be the point where the observer ceases to be able to 
observe due to the velocity of the observer light limit and says nothing 
about a masses limiting velocity.

I just went into the subject and trained much deeper than you. What I cannot 
find credible is that you bought the misinformation about nucleus of protons 
and chain reactions and critical mass junk the government fed you. I only 
know what I know from insider knowledge from my early years, so as a 
humanitarian can understand you being misled. What I cannot understand is you 
being mislead for so long a time to where even my reason and logic cannot 
remove your preconceived notions that fail with the minimum of scientific 
examination and common sense.

You need to place US government press release credibility (regarding atomic 
physics -or the meaning of sexual relations) with the tooth fairy, and Santa 
Claus :+)

Tom
