Dear Samuel,
You are correct in
recognizing the importance of the bolded words. That is an area in
which Bedini and I are working very hard, just now. It refers to (no
good name for it) something like Wheeler's pre-geometry, with respect to
energy one might say "pre-energy", only it's a sort of
pre-electromagnetics. It is similar to the vacuum, in that normally one
would think it's just a huge zero, so it would appear more like
"electrical ground" or "pure electrical ground reference", so to speak.
So one is dealing with, "How do I extract and use gobs of energy freely,
from electrical ground?"
Yet in any grounded
circuit, there is just as much current running through the ground as
there is through the potentialized side of the circuit. But the ground
current is said to have no "power" because it (for a perfect ground) has
no voltage (no potential), and in EE one needs both voltage and amperage
(and little phase lag between them!) to have "power". Actually that
should long ago have given a clue: In theory, if one has the current
lagging the voltage by 90 degrees, one has zero power or what is called
"apparent power". Usually that will not run anything --- but if you run
it through a proper delay feature, you can get the current and voltage
to get back in phase with each other, and voila! Now it's "real
power". The power company actually pays some things because they do
something similar and "correct the power factor".
Look at it this way.
One can get all the energy you wish, at minuscule cost, by having an
enormous voltage with very little current at all. And one can get all
the current you wish, at minuscule cost, by having an enormous current
with very little voltage. If one can find a way to combine those two
entities, so that one accepts the voltage from one and the current from
the other, and then tricks them to getting together, one would have
enormous power suddenly appear at very little input cost.
And there is a great
clue: If one gets the vast voltage for free, and if one "pins" or hold
the vast amount of charge so it can't flow as current at least for a bit
of time, then --- during that "charge pinned" time --- one can freely
flow that voltage across that charge and potentialize it "for free". In
short, one can indeed combine the big voltage and the big charge for
free, if one freezes that charge so it can't move as current during the
potentialization process. The voltage will graciously do it for you!
Then if one switches
away the original source of the high potential, once the vast charge has
been potentialized in pinned condition, and suddenly frees the
now-potentialized charges in a separate complete circuit where the
current is constrained to flowing only in one circulation direction, one
can now discharge the already-combined extreme voltage and extreme
current as extreme power to power the load until all that collected
extreme power has been dissipated. Then one can just repeat the process
cyclically, to continue powering a huge load for peanuts.
My colleagues and I
filed a preliminary patent on that process some years ago, but later had
to abandon it. The process we were using required a very special alloy
which in turn required some very expensive metallurgical work which we
were never able to afford. But the PROCESS is impeccable and it will
hold up rigorously. It is definitely a doable that someone ought to
develop.
But back to Kron's
open path and the "zero reference ground" potential. With respect to
any other reference potential one may freely choose, that "zero ground"
suddenly now is a real potential (real voltage), and so --- with respect
to this second reference or "second ground" ---- the first ground now
suddenly can be used to do work and power things. In other words, I can
take one "reference zero ground" and another different "reference zero
ground" at different reference potential, and power circuits between the
two! And if I'm clever and take the difference in potential off as pure
potential and store it on some pinned or fixed charges so no current
flows, I can have all the energy collected on those pinned charges that
I wish, and absolutely for free. Then if I switch that SECONDARY
collector into a separate circuit and allow it to discharge normally, it
will power the circuit. Then I can switch the collector back to the
source of potential, grab some more free potential without power, and do
it all over again and a gain. That of course is the essence of Bedini's
battery switching process which he discovered long ago, and which he has
been using successfully to achieve a variety of COP>1.0 systems for many
years. It works.
Further, if one
recognizes the asymmetry of opposite charges (which also means potential
differences), then the mere fact that the difference exists between
those charges or their locations, is ITSELF also extracting EM energy
from the vacuum and outputting it as a real energy flow in space. Kron
called this his "open path", and it took him many years to discover it.
He was never allowed to reveal the secret of his "open path", but did
leave certain hints in his rigorous papers published in leading
journals.
Another way to look at
it is this: take any reference potential (such as a simple charge)
anywhere in the universe. Take another one, somewhere else in the
universe, which is at a different potential (with respect to the ambient
vacuum potential, which is extraordinarily energetic). Those two
charges (that difference in potential) form a dipolarity, even across
great separation distance, with a situation where there is opposite or
different charge at "each side" or "each end". Thus the proven broken
symmetry of opposite charges applies. In turn, this means that this
crazy extended dipolarity is receiving some virtual energy from the
vacuum, transducing it into real observable EM energy, and then
continuously pouring out that real EM energy.
Any charge in the
universe interacts in just such "open path" fashion with any other
differing charge in the universe, to produce a free flow of energy in
space. The number of such dipolarities and open paths is beyond all
counting. So contrary to how we are taught, all "empty space" is filled
with a mind-boggling number (essentially infinite) energy currents in
all directions, from untold numbers of dipolarities. Yet it all usually
appears to be "zero" to anything of any particular size, where the
fluctuations zero out on the average. But at a smaller level, things are
going berserk. It's comparable to sitting a cork in a glass of still
water, and my! The cork sits there seemingly absolutely still. Now put
in some colloidal particles and examine them under the microscope, and
they are moving with fierce banging and velocity and accelerations like
mad, showing that the molecules of the "still" water are actually in
very violent motion, and they are buffeting the colloidal particles
fiercely. That of course is just Brownian motion. But if one goes
sufficiently small enough, and could look in there, the motion and
energy would have become absolutely mindboggling -- so fierce that even
mass itself would be ethereally thin by comparison.
The trick now is to
learn how to intercept the "open path" or "ground" electricity and
energy flows and direct them in such a way that one gets it to perform
useful work. For that, one has to make a fundamental change to
thermodynamics, which does not encompass the "open path" effect. I'm
laboring on that part of it now, and have been for several months, and I
believe I finally have broken the key. Anyway, we will know for certain
fairly soon.
So what you are
groping toward is, I think, Gabriel's Kron's "open path" in its greater
sense. And yes, if one can learn its phenomenology and characteristics
and understand it, one can power the world cheaply, cleanly, and with
ridiculous ease.
Of course, there are
some very powerful and very wealthy folks behind most of the
interlocking energy-related corporations and large financial structures,
etc., who reap huge windfalls from the present systems of electrical
powering, oil, and other energy aspects. (They do the same with
pharmaceuticals). It's not a monolith at all, but a loose collection of
cartels that Winston Churchill called the "High Cabal". Certain of
those powerful folks already know about the "open path" (their fathers
or uncles were probably the ones who suppressed Kron's open path), and
who are determined to suppress any open working knowledge of it.
Stubblefield called this kind of energy "earth electricity", and
developed what he called "earth batteries", etc. to succeed in using it
before he died early in the 1900s. He produced heat, light, and power
--- right out of the ground itself by very simple-looking (but highly
complicated in operational mechanism) means --- so he had it all. As a
result, when he died in poverty, everything under his little cabin was
dug out by some mysterious folks from outside that entire place, and the
plates etc. he had installed in the surrounding hills, etc. were all dug
up and removed, as was all the equipment from his cabin. As an example,
he caused the hills themselves to emit light, and his little cabin was
toasty warm from two special plates wired to other special plates
inserted in the ground.
I believe (and hope)
that Bedini and I will be able to crack this area and understand it,
because of John's experimental ability on the bench and his
understanding of some of the fundamental phenomenology already. If we
break it, we are going to reveal it openly, by just putting it out there
on the Internet for all to see. John will file a patent so he will have
some intellectual property rights to pay expenses, but by hanging it out
there it will guarantee that the genie can never again be put back in
the bottle.
It is high time that
we quit the present ever-increasing giant pollution of the biosphere
just to get energy and power. John is already well into the problem
experimentally. I'm struggling with the explanation (even a sufficiently
good "ad hoc" one will do) and I do believe we shall be able to explore
it and explain it sufficiently for it to be duplicated and made into a
technology.
This is an area we
really don't want a lot of questions etc. on. Once we get the work
done, we'll hang the results out there for all the world to see.
So yes, your intuition
was right on. It is a very deep, very complicated subject, and very
challenging. So it's going to take some time. With a bit of luck we
hope to have the gist of it in about a year.
Best wishes,
Tom Bearden
