========================== technology/deep.end #2021, from kaminski, 1060 chars, Sun Oct 28 17:51:08 1990 -------------------------- TITLE: San Francisco Tesla Society Newsletters I've just posted the March, April, and May 1990 transcriptions of the San Francisco Tesla Society Newsletter to /long.messages #144-146. They cover a wide variety of subjects, including Tesla concepts, neuro- stimulation, free energy, mass-energy-gravity relationships, Tesla from a New Age point of view, etc. I found them interesting and fairly intelligently written, even if the subject matter is somewhat unorthodox. I'd like to stress that I'm acting solely as a messenger transferring these files from a local BBS to BIX, and have no other connection to the people mentioned or the information therein, and no other interest save the free flow of information and the hope that we will continue to learn more about the universe. I'd also like to note that the April newsletter contains the number of Computer Continuum BBS in San Francisco, which carries an SFTS Forum, including Tesla updates, discussions, and the newsletter: 415-755-1524. (I haven't personally verified the number or BBS operation.) ========================== technology/long.messages #144, from kaminski, 10220 chars, Sun Oct 28 17:21:49 1990 -------------------------- TITLE: San Francisco Tesla Society Newsletter, March 1990 SAN FRANCISCO TESLA SOCIETY NEWSLETTER 700 Earl Street San Francisco, CA 94124 Volume I Number 3: March 1990 MARCH MINUTES About 20 of us met at the Earl Street warehouse on Sunday 11 March 1990 at 1 PM. The membership dues were discussed. For new members, the total annual dues are $30: $5 to San Francisco Tesla and $25 to International Tesla. For continuing members, the total annual dues are $25: $5 to Local and $20 to International. If you are interested in membership, please refer to "Membership Information." We convened at 1 pm and continued until almost 6 pm with people coming and going in between those times. (How time flies when you're having fun!) We had a Lakhovsky Multiple Wave Oscillator demonstration by Tom Helke and a video on Tesla weaponry by Tom Bearden. Lively discussions followed both presentations. Lakhovsky Multiple Wave Oscillator The meeting began with Tom Helke's sparkling demonstration of a turn- of-the-century electrotherapy device called a "Lakhovsky Multiple Wave Oscillator" (MWO). Tom has been interested in alternate healing techniques for years and the MWO is an outreach of that interest. To receive a "treatment," you sit between two flat antennas which produce an electromagnetic field of therapeutic energy. Last summer, he hacked together the device from spare parts which included beer and sarsaparilla bottle capacitors, aluminum foil and acryllic antennas, a car ignition coil, a hand-wound, oil-filled Tesla coil with a rotary spark gap. Everything was constructed from scratch and was based on a modern design originally devised by Bob Beck and later modified by Klark Kent. The MWO was conceptualized by George Lakhovsky who was a Russian-born engineer residing in Paris. He was interested in various forms of electrotherapy and believed that electromotive force (emf) broadcast at multiple frequencies would have a curative effect. Lakhovsky postulated that the energy field resonates with the "twisted filament" (which is like a "tiny oscillator") in the neuclei of living cells. Thus, the cell can act as a transmitter or receiver of radio- electric waves that are energizing and revitalizing. With Tesla's help, he constructed the MWO in the mid-1920s. It received U.S. patent #1,962,565 in 1931. Lakhovsky died in 1942. The patent expired in 1951 and is now in public domain. Since, MWOs' and similar devices have been used extensively in therapy clinics throughout Europe. Americans continue to "experiment" with MWOs' which have been documented to be of value in treating cancer, arthritis, and other illnesses. Four people sat for an electrotherapy experience. Three stated they felt a distinct energy field; one said he felt both calmed and energized; and another said he felt nothing. The MWO will be available for demonstration at April's meeting.The Multiple Wave Oscillator is another example of Tesla technology and it generated a high degree of interest at the meeting. Such presentations are ideal for our group because they satisfy the need for hands-on experience of the theories and inventions of Nikola Tesla.For more information on the Lakhovsky Multiple Wave Oscillator, please refer to the following: "The Lakhovsky Multiple Wave Oscillator Handbook," compiled by Tom Brown, Borderland Sciences Research, PO Box 429, Garberville, CA 95440-0429.

TOM BEARDEN VIDEO In a two hour video, Colonel Tom Bearden spoke in great detail about Tesla weaponry developed by the Soviets. Apparently, with applications of "scalar wave interferometry," entire cities can be shielded from the most intense military attacks. A globe of energy can be made to cover a sizable geographic area so that planes, missiles, armies cannot enter, but are disintigrated by the wall of light upon contact. Soviet attack weaponry employs like principle in that scalar waves are pointed towards a specific area of the globe or to a photograph (!) of the area or object and instantaneous destruction takes place. Bearden cited the devastation of the Trident submarine as an example of the work of the Soviets and their Tesla weapons. He used color illustrations (no photographs) to help clarify the points he made, but the talk was very technical in nature and left many of us in the dark. Discussion that followed indicated that, if such things are possible, why hasn't Bearden given us physical evidence of such claims.Bearden goes into greater detail about his claims in his books on the subject. He seems most dedicated to disseminating knowledge of the more extreme applications of Tesla technology, but, then again, there's that query ... where's the proof? Tesla devised similar kinds of area protection shields and avowed such weaponry, but it was all in the planning stage and, as history proclaims, was not developed further. EDITORIAL At every one of our meetings, we have had attendees expressing skepticism toward some of the claims made by "Tesla Scientists." In future publications I am sure more controversial material will appear. It is ever the fate of people who deal with the cutting edge of science to shed or wade in a little blood. As a Tesla supporter I certainly expect it to happen to me. I share in some of the frustration of our members in not having anything to point to that proves Tesla codified a science that gives free energy, or deals in time travel, or that can shield people\cities from harm. These are, after all, pretty extravagant claims and it is easy to be intimidated by the embarrassment of being laughed at. The devices that prove Tesla technology exists, are simply not being mass produced nor are they being ballyhooed (against an obviously disinterested scientific community). The foremost reason I am actively involved in this group is to do anything I can to get these devices to the general public. A little known historical fact about the personal computer illustrates that a tiny handful of individuals released plans and kits to the general public just one step ahead of the military's (among others) attempts to shut them down. Obviously the release of working Tesla devices are far more portentous. Hold on to your hats. To show you what we are involved in as far as the perception of the general public is concerned, I ran across the following snippets in the Colliers Encyclopedia. This is history -- as it is currently being taught: "Physicists came to think of all space as occupied by a real substance with some very peculiar properties designed to transmit light waves but to avoid certain other consequences. This medium was called the ether, and following earlier philosophers such as Descartes, physicists gradually came to the conclusion that gravitational (as well as electric and magnetic) forces are transmitted as some sort of pressure in this fluid. Only as attempts to formulate a consistent theory of the ether met with no success did it begin to appear that though the ether answered the question of action at a distance, the answer could not be regarded as satisfactory. It remained for Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955) to put all the pieces together; to abolish the ether, as it were, and to postulate that standards of absolute space and time have no physical existence, since no conceivable experiment can reveal their existence in any way." The Encyclopedia Americana said much the same thing but was kinder in their summation with the following: "Although the classical concept of the ether is now considered obsolete, the concept of space in modern physics retains certain affinities with an ether: space is not conceived as something totally vacuous but as the seat of various energetic processes." Tesla, of course, knew that the "ether" existed and proved it many times over. Tesla scientists, since then, have delineated the mathematics behind the discoveries, but it will be up to organizations and businesses such as ours to "force" it out into the open. There is, by definition, only one Unified Field Theory. Einstein spoke often and loudly that relativity was not the Unified Field Theory. Yet science keeps forcing us into accepting it as such. Next issue we will promote some ideas of why current science has failed us, along with some Tesla alternatives. --Darrell Bross, President SF MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION We are a local chapter of International Tesla; thus, those who become members of SF Tesla are also guaranteed a spot in International Tesla.

This article borrows heavily from a paper written by Tom Bearden titled, "The New Electromagnetics And The Secrets of Free Electrical Energy." However I have attempted to rephrase most of the physics Tom has described to some elemental "baby talk" conclusions. I will undoubtedly offend almost anyone with a technical background but I am going to try to bring an Andy Rooney simplicity into play. Most of what I learned about electricity supposed a "charged mass" or "electrons" leaping from atom to atom. After all, radio transmissions have limitations as to range. Yet no one has satisfactorily explained how radio transmissions can be transmitted through a vacuum! Yet most learned scientists fall back on the conundrum that there never is such a thing as a "perfect" vacuum. OK, Wise Guys, how come the radio signal is totally unaffected in any way by a $Bpartial $Bvacuum? Why doesn't a partial vacuum at least weaken the signal? Speaking of vacuums, recent experiments have proven that light travels considerably faster through a vacuum than through an atmosphere. Does this mean that the distances we have been assuming between stars are all wrong? On what other funny rules can we cast some doubt. How about the premise that, all things being equal, objects fall at the same rate? A one pound stone dropped from the Empire State Building will hit the pavement at the same time as a ten pound stone. Wrong! Two gyroscopes placed in identical boxes dropped at the same time from the aforementioned building, one spinning, one not, ... guess what? This is not just hypothetical, it has been done. Nikola Tesla "pumped" his coils to as high a voltage as was humanly possible and then observed what happened. A strange thing began to happen. The higher the voltage, the less that happened. In simple terms, he was approaching $Bpumping $Bthe ether. Think about it. Consider this: mass may be a $Bdisplacement $Bof an energy field instead of being required as a component. Maybe the earth "displaces" the ether and thereby causes the ether to "push" instead of the earth to "suck" it. Everybody admits that time is not truely measurable by modern methods. Indeed space-time as Einstein describes it, is warpable. Indeed. -3- Pure vacuum is pure charge flux. On the order of 200 million volts or higher. It almost amounts to a parlor trick to "bring it back down" to usuable levels. One thing might help our thinking here, stop thinking about plus and minus ... at these levels it is pure energy. Remember ... no mass.Next month I will explore some of the practical ways we can demonstrate and bring to the public, practical applications and means to utilize some of the "anomalies" I have just described. Hopefully we will be able to announce some programs that the San Francisco Tesla Society may be initiating to bring these things to the public. Darrell Bross, SFTS President All That Sparks ... is an open column to which anyone can submit a personal viewpoint of Tesla and/or Tesla Technology. Tesla was a pioneer who was recurrently challenged by his contemporaries. We whole-heartedly encourage a pioneering spirit. April Minutes We convened at 700 Earl Street, 8 April 1990, 1 PM. It was discussed that a sizable number of the attendees were interested in Tesla from the standpoint of developing "free energy" devices.George Perry, Eric Reiter, and Bob Frier demonstrated the GoodField One which is an electromagnetic field generator. It emits a wide spectrum of frequencies -- 1 Hz to 300 MHz. (The radio delivers one frequency.) The electromagnetic field tends to enact "order and orientation" in the human energy system which enhances "the antibodies chances of recognizing mutations and invading viruses."The driver circuitry for the GoodField One is contained in a small plastic box. Attached is a small spiral antenna which can -4- be placed anywhere on or near the body for effect. The uses of the GoodField One are varied and range from energy enhancement to alleviation of substance addictions. Also available from GoodFields Technology is the GoodField Two -- a low cost, tunable, electric pulse generator; also described as a "brain tuner." There is not an apparent relationship with Tesla technology here; however, for those of you who are avid students, it should be remembered that Nikola Tesla was the original inventor of the radio. Marconi received undue credit for it. The GoodField One was designed by Eric Reiter and the GoodField Two was developed by Bob Frier. Both devices can be purchased from GoodFields Technology, 161 Park Plaza, Suite 12, Daly City, CA, 94015. Or call (415) 755- 0469. The price of the GoodField One is in the $175-$200 range. The Lakhovsky Multiple Wave Oscillator was again demonstrated and will continue to be available at the meetings. Our meetings seem to draw out the colorful in us all. Jerry Tomlinson reaped a long-standing wish of getting his ear pierced! Mike Kan performed the service with an appropriate piercing device. May Meeting We will convene at 700 Earl Street, San Francisco, CA 94124 on 13 May 1990, Sunday, 1 PM. There will be a film about the life of Tesla, narrated by Orson Welles. Take the #19 Polk Street bus outbound. Get off at the last stop, Earl and Innes, before entering Hunters Point Naval Shipyards. Walk down the hill. We are in the sizable, brown warehouse. If driving, take 3rd Street southbound, turn left on Evans, follow that around into Innes, Earl Street intersects Innes. Call 641-9704 just before meeting time for details. -5- Digital Tesla Thanks to the efforts of Computer Continuum BBS, those with computer modems can link with the latest Tesla updates, discussions, as well as this newsletter. To reach Computer Continuum, call (415) 755-1524 and ask to be upgraded for access to the San Francisco Tesla Society Forum. It is a R/W sub- board. In this way, you can leave messages and e-mail. [Photo here of T. Henry Moray and his Radiant Energy device.] -6- The Sea of Energy T. Henry Moray's theories of "radiant" or "cosmic" energy paralleled those of Tesla in the earlier part of the twentieth century. His radiant energy device was able to produce 50 kilowatts of power over a 72 hour period with no connection to an outside source. In fact, it was demonstrated many miles from any known source of electricity. Moray realized that the energy with which he worked came to the earth from an outside source and was oscillating, rather than static, in nature. To implement his ideas, he needed to develop a good "valve-like detector." He discovered that a "soft, white stone" would suit these needs. Later versions became the diode and finally the transistor. His doctoral thesis at the University of Upsalla, Sweden, "advanced the idea that there was energy throughout space." Presently, this is referred to as "zero-point vacuum" energy. T. Henry Moray repeatedly tested and demonstrated his device to a host of established researchers. He could not patent it because the U.S. Patent Office required proof of an energy source. The radiant energy device was destroyed by a Russian who worked with Dr. Moray in his Salt Lake City lab. The components were extremely difficult to create and, since, a similar device has not been developed. The germanium semiconductor was developed directly from the ground-work of T. Henry Moray. Dr. Harvey Fletcher, once head of Bell Laboratories, got the original information on the transistor from Dr. Moray. Under Dr. Fletcher's direction, further development lead to the Nobel Prize for certain individuals at Bell Labs. John Moray, son of T. Henry Moray, continues the work of his father at Cosray in Salt Lake City. The book from which this material was derived, The Sea of Energy by T. Henry Moray, can be purchased from The Research Institute, 2505 South Fourth East, PO Box 151045, Salt Lake City, Utah, 84115. Cost: $10 plus s/h. Another book, Radiant Energy, by T. Henry Moray can be purchased from Borderland Sciences Research Foundation, Box 429, Garberville, CA 95440. Cost: $3.00 plus s/h, CA state tax.The following was conveyed to me with a copy of The Sea of Energy from John Moray: -7- Addendum The Sea of Energy The following is an affidavit made by Dr. Harvey Fletcher to support the Eyring Research Institute in a proposal made by them to NASA. This illustrates that Dr. Henry Eyring and Dr. Fletcher's opposition to Dr. Moray was strictly political. It also gives credence to our belief that Dr. James Fletcher, former head of NASA, knows that Radiant Energy is genuine and is only opposed to it in an effort to protect his father. This also would explain the stand their cousin Senator Wallace Bennett took against government support of Radiant Energy. (See pages 96, 97, and 99, The Sea of Energy.) Dr. Harvey Fletcher erred in one statement; he was invited to work on the project by Robert L. Judd, Dr. Moray's attorney, who happened to be Heber J. Grant's son- in-law, but not a representative, at that time, of the LDS church. I, Harvey Fletcher, being of sound mind, at the age of 94, on this 25th day of May, 1979, in the City of Provo, Utah, do make the following declaration of my own free will, to wit: According to my memory, in the year 1928, while I was employed by Bell Telephone Labs in New York, I was invited to Utah by officials of the Mormon Church with the approval of my employer to observe a demonstration of a device invented by T. Henry Moray of Salt Lake City, Utah. The device was contained in a small wooden box about 18" x 24" x 24" long, which I, personally, inspected and determined that it was connected to no prime mover but only to an antenna and a ground. The electrical load on the device consisted of 12 clear 75 Watt 110 Volt light bulbs and a 500 Watt electric flat iron, also 110 Volt. When the antenna and ground were connected, and certain adjustments made by the inventor, internal to the box, the loads were electrically operated. I was permitted to inspect the interior of the box and certain of the schematic drawings pertaining to the circuits involved in the device. I was not permitted to inspect a plug-in unit which was removed and held in the palm of the inventor's hand which he stated was the most proprietary part of the apparatus. I did not know how the device functioned and do not know -8- today, but I do know that it did function for the several hours of time that I observed it. I could discern no batteries, and could observe no other known methods of inducing electric power into the box or its loads. Signed this 25th day of May, 1979. Harvey Fletcher Subscribed and sworn to before me this 25th day of May, 1979. Cleo L.

Part II 6 May Minutes 8 June Meeting 9 Advanced Study Groups 9 Teslanauts 9 Electromagnetics 10 -4- All That Sparks ... Part I O.K., Darrell and Tom, I shall lend my thoughts to this effort, for we are not all scientists here. I am drawn to the "Tesla Vortex" (invisible, yet shocking when experienced) from the intuitive aspect of body/mind. Will you spend a few minutes and explore some not-nuts-or-bolts ideas with me? Let's start blending right and left brain perceptions of the Tesla phenomena. I found myself making an unsubtle feminist comment (an insult, really) while expressing my bewilderment over Tesla coil-builders' fascination for their craft. With all the exciting potential of so-called "Tesla Technology" (radiant energy source devices, subtle electromagnetic healing concepts, a whole new paradigm of our geo-electric and bio-electric reality, etc., etc...), why the continued fuss over Tesla coils? "Tom," I asked, "What's with all these guys sitting around comparing whose lightning is longer?" Tom, in a most un-macho way, quietly responded that it had to do with "experiencing the power." It took some time for his comment to sink in, so softly was it delivered. And then it hit me ... My first experience with the million-volt Tesla coil was at the 1984 Tesla Symposium in Colorado Springs. [Photo of Nikola Tesla] -5- All That Sparks ... Part I (cont.) To witness the machine-made lightning directly is to have an archetypally transpersonal experience. The coil is indeed a mechanical representation of the snake of the kundalini, the coiled serpent rising from the root chakra, vessel of the pranic charge of life itself. With the flick of a switch and a jolting thunderclap, radiant violet lightning lashes forth from the crown of the momentarily living machine. The experience induced awe in the eye of this beholder ... for the violet lightning that danced on the coiled serpent's head was that very same violet color discussed by Alice Bailey, S.J.G. Ouseley, Jack Schwartz, and myriad other metaphysical healing-oriented authors. My whole body resonated with that lightning. I was in the presence of the actual Violet Ray. I was witnessing that "highest light vibration," perceiving something far beyond myself, yet to which I was connected ... I was trembling for days afterward, every time I recalled the visual image. Are you still with me? The power of seeing the coil go off with my own eyes summoned forth my own electric self. The coil and lightning presented an image of my electrical self-consciousness to my psyche, through the eye of my body/mind. If witnessing the lightning off the coil did all that, what would bathing in it do? Tesla did it all the time ... It makes sense that Tesla didn't care to shake hands with anyone. He used to hang out in his laboratory, by his own account, and let the energy surge through him, radiating lightning from his fingertips. He wrote quite highly of the experience, trying to convince the public of the safety of his type of electricity (to wit, AC). Yet there was something else happening, as anyone who has worked with chakras and meridians could tell you: he was clearing and cleansing and charging and repeatedly balancing his own bio-energetic body. No wonder that he did not care to receive anyone else's toxic etheric discharge (transmitted by the act of shaking hands). No wonder he retained an agile body and alert mind ... Oh, so they say he was crazy toward the end of his life? ... Well, should we go back to his later work and re-evaluate it? Was he crazy, or just a clear and present super-thinker far ahead of his time? Looking at the descriptions of the man as I do, living in California in 1990, I see an eccentrically self-actualized, highly self-expressive New Age man, who was also tragically unsuccessful as an entrepreneur. He was understandably angry in his later years. He engendered controversy by his very openness, in a life-long attempt to keep his ideas in the public eye and mind. Could he have been a man whose body/mind was free and clear of energy blockages? I believe he not only survived a childhood kundalini crisis (read MY INVENTIONS, -6- All That Sparks ... Part I (cont.) Ed. Ben Johnston, 1982), but kept clearing his energetic self until very late in his life when his laboratory and all his resources had gone. Had he blown all his fuses, or were they working better than we will ever know??? I see a man whose life and work deserves further reflection and research. And I thank you, all you Tesla coil builders, for counting your coils carefully, and observing the length of your lightning. Keep it up! - Caroleigh Eversoul Tomlinson All That Sparks ... Part II This is the third, and final, article in a series that attempts to reduce the revolutionary Tesla technology down to layman terms (at least as far as this writer is able). The first, and perhaps most startling, technological breakthrough is a three part energy invention that was Tesla's ultimate downfall - the wireless transmission of power. Before that, was the transmission of power over a single line. And the ultimate application, of course, is the extraction of "free" energy directly from the etheric "sea of energy". Eric Dollard, in 1986 replicated the single wire transmission of energy so we know that the Tesla apparatus is duplicatable. Other than the savings in copper wire and line losses I cannot see this as having a terrific impact other than a rather starrtling and undeniable demonstration that we can now throw out all concepts of plus and minus. It does, however, lead to the next, more startling, development. Project Tesla, conducted during 1987 and 1988, was an attempt to duplicate Tesla's work in "pumping" the Schumann Cavity with Extremely Low Frequency waves at a point in Colorado and extracting that energy from a location near Los Angeles. This would have had a tremendous effect in enabling energy poor countries to achieve manufacturing parity with any other country. Cheap labor and limitless electrical power would have changed the economies of practically everything we do. Unfortunately some shortcuts were attempted with Project Tesla resulting in a critical part breaking down and the project had to be discontinued. The good part about this experiment was that every- one wound up agreeing that you don't use shortcuts when it comes to the masters (Tesla) design. And they got far enough into the project to gain even more confidence that the project is feasible (not to mention the big bucks somebody had invested in it in the first place). -7- All That Sparks ... Part II (cont.) The third phase of power generation/transmission has to do with "free energy" devices. I believe that this single development will not only set us free from having to pay for power but is the key that will unlock the door to truly earth shaking breakthroughs in many other areas. We already have small bench-top generators that create energy out of thin air. Cold fusion also works and is being duplicated all over the world. The first thing that unlimited power leads to is the transmutation of base materials into any composition of metals that you can dream up. From the ancient alchemists attempt to create gold to the modern dream of a totally impervious yet malleable metal. The problem associated with free energy technology is that you would put out of business all of the power companies on the face of the globe. This suggestion was Tesla's downfall. You would also instantly bankrupt, not only the nuclear power generating business but the oil companies as well since cars would be immediately converted to a free energy motor. Another development that free energy leads to is free communication. If energy can be "beamed", or received anywhere on the face of the earth with no power loss, then a communication can be transmitted in a similar fashion. This has a twofold implication. Not only would communications companies have their control sharply curtailed but the capability would be there for people to listen in to any location they chose. No more secrets. We are just beginning to theorize about the physics implications and discuss some of the possibilities. Tom Bearden deals in a more detailed exploration of such possibilities in his several books and one startling prediction is that faster than speed of light movement and anti-gravity devices are reason- ably within reach once Tesla technology is acknowledged. This would mean instantaneous shipment of any sized object to any other spot on the globe or to nearby planets with no apparent energy expenditure. There goes the transportation industry (trains, trucks, ships - everything). I have seen papers written within this organization that claim time travel is impossible, given what we surmise about Tesla technology. Other people (myself included) disagree. I find this subject difficult to grasp from an implicational standpoint. I believe that we have "natural" teleportation occurring in the universe and there may be enough evidence to suggest "natural" time travel. While the reader may think I am getting fairly far afield with my specu- lations, I hope to address that with this final point. -8- All That Sparks ... Part II (cont.) There is only one Unified Field Theorey (by definition). If the theorey is re- discovered and all physical secrets of the universe are unlocked, then anything is possible (and hopefully the counter control is equally possible). I have tried to explore only those possibilities that are directly linkable to theoretical Tesla technology. I seriously invite additional dialogue (or disputation) on these subjects. - Darrell Bross, SFTS President All That Sparks ... Is an open column to which anyone can submit a personal viewpoint of Tesla and/or Tesla Technology. Tesla was a pioneer who was recurrently challenged by his contemporaries. We wholeheartedly encourage a pioneering spirit. May Minutes The May 13th meeting was held at the chapter's laboratory in San Francisco. Edwin El-Kareh brought a copy of the Yugoslavian production of Nikola Tesla's life story. This two hour film is a fairly faithful rendition of the history of Tesla from the time of his entry to this country at New York until his death. Flashbacks were used to illustrate how childhood influenced Tesla's genius. While the production values and direction were somewhat hokey, many original Tesla devices were used and location shots of original backgrounds figured prominantly in the film. Edwin brought two other shorts stressing the fact that efforts by individuals can make a tremendous difference in any time or circumstance. A brief explanation of Associated Partners West was offered by Darrell Bross. APW is a reliable firm dealing in ozone/oxygenation products as health supplements. A catalog and explanation of their product line can be had by writing to APW. A preliminary announcement was made indicating that the core group of our chapter was busy working on concrete plans to provide -9- May Minutes (cont.) extensive support to individuals working in the fields of Tesla Technology. The feeling has been expressed that only a minority of people exploring this technology have all the requisite entrepreneurial skills to bring devices out to the marketplace or to the awareness of the public. We are "not just another user group." - Richard Easton June Meeting Our next meeting will be 10 June 1990, 1 PM, at 700 Earl Street, San Francisco, CA 94124. Take #19 Muni Bus outbound. Get off at the last stop before entering Hunters Point Naval Shipyards. Earl Street is one block long. We will be in the large brown warehouse at the bottom of the hill. If driving, take 3rd Street heading south. Turn left on Evans which winds around into Innes. Earl Street intersects Innes. Park at the bottom of the hill. Call 641- 9704 for details just before the meeting. Advanced Technology Study Groups Two Study Groups will be offered through SFTS if enough interest is generated: Tesla Coil Builders Study Group: (if you want to build tesla coils and other related devices) Contact Darrell Bross at (415) 641-9704.

Mr. Beck has had an outstanding career with over 45 years of government and academic experience in the instrumentation of altered states, development of medical electrostimulators, and the investigation of Tesla electromagnetics. he is the inventor of the BT-5 brain device that you see advertised in today's mainstream new thought magazines; i.e., Magical Blend, New Age Journal, etc. The main theme of Mr. Beck's talk was the medical applications of his neuro- stimulator and the fierce resistance to such devices by the national bureaucracy. While being careful not to make claims that his device actually "cures" people, Mr. beck outlined many cases of users of the BT-5 having wonderful "spontaneous remissions" from such ailments as alcohol and narcotics addiction. The audience was taken via slide show through the history of medical electro- stimulation vs. the monolithic pharmaceutical companies. There are records of patents being obtained for neurostimulating devices as far back as the 1830's. There are also graphic illustrations of packages of heroin being marketed by Bayer alongside their aspirin formulae. It's clear that pioneers such as Bob Beck have formidable foes. There were so many notable people in the audience that Mr. Beck decided to form a panel for q. and a. The panel was comprised of Michael Hutchinson, author of Megabrain; Burl Payne, author of Body Magnetic, and Eric Reiter of GoodFields Technology. Lively discussion followed. Mr. Beck also gave glowing praises to another person in the audience, SFTS Vice President Shelley Thompson, who literally saved Mr. Beck's life a few years ago. Way to go, Shelley! All in all, it was a memorable night. The Teslanauts who stuck together when the meeting broke up all ran off to the Copper Penny for pie, hot chocolate, and noisy conversation. Editor's Note: Robert C. Beck, B. E., D. Sc., designed a modern prototype of the Lakhovsky Multiple Wave Oscillator we now use in our SFTS laboratory.
