The sure means of access to those rumored places in the spacemarks of conventional reality, is that path which follows the flow of all—absorptive interest; where one's abiding interest truly lies, where passion is unequivocally kindled and sustained against distraction there the shape of reality shifts and turns, its walls pass imper-— ceptibly away; and there, with scarcely a signal to mark the change one will find oneself amongst those already unassumedly at work, in library silence and an atmosphere accepting of what in the former context was an outrage to parochial reason, on matters that would make the mass—mind blanch but which in such surroundings come fully equipped with assembled milieus of self-evident function. So it is that there are salted all around, in every community in every nation of the globe, those for whom speculation has long passed into functional reality owing to...abiding interest, unprejudiced passion possessing instinct beyond all culturally—conditioned cues. Indeed there is an "alternative universe" as close to you as a next-door neighbor, in which particular employees of quite—familiar firms ply principles on a practical daily basis that are not officially "perceived" yet which, when calculated matter—of—factly into the adjustments of the Weber angle or applied to a solenoid induce expected twists inferring the presence of free energy, inferring gravitational suspen— sion.... There is a complete, operative universe—discovered to have been there all along—based on a close psychic network of interest where circulates quite liberally technical papers by Soviet physicists, tracts by respectable and officially "discredited" researchers, "lost" formulae and dramatic designs formally supposed to be locked out of reach in frozen patents, treatises by Reich and Rife, Tesla and T.T. Brown on topics from teleportation to eloptic healing, and myriads of working hands which pass them along—there are anonymous inventors and amateur electricians in little basements who, with but a bit of coil and some magnets have so mastered the basic principles of the officially verboten that they've managed to engineer right at home demonstrable versions of the Searle Disk, the Dean drive—and operative antigravity loops. A mathematician—friend of MT's, in the late '60s, had developed a loop of coils and magnets along the arcanely "approved" lines which demonstrated true weight—loss after correcting for extraneous conditions, on any object placed within its field. A rock installed inside it pulsed like a chickenheart, and dropped more than a gram. Our mathematician friend was injudicious enough at first to pass his hand into the operative field, and as a consequence sustained a type of "radiation burn" on fingers and arm which had the peculiar property of fading in and out, eventually going away for years at a time and then mysteriously reappearing. He suffered forms of memory loss from sustained exposure to its functioning field. In the early '70s the U.S. Navy paid him several thousand dollars just to keep it for a week and examine it; after that time it was politely returned by mediating agency, accompanied by a terse note of "explanation" as to why the registered weight loss was attributable to atmospheric matters and certain imprecisions in the 117 T-Bird_Vs_The_Flying_saucers.htm Making Light of Antigravity
