- FTL drives? Time travel? I believe them not impossible. So why not build
- the damned things and see if they work?

- If it's a question of money, then how much? If an organization HAD the
- funds,
- who do you hire?
-
- Or am I missing something? (Please don't harp about research costs- I know
- all about it- and I still wanna know How Much and Who).

- As you note it takes money. The credibility barrier and a depressed economy
- inhibit investment although Clinton's R&D investment tax credits if
- implemented may change that. The only money in this area is Church's
- funding of Puthoff's zero-point energy research at Zeus - which is good.
- I need about $1,000,000/year for 10 years to fund a small group of
- theorists to keep abreast of the work of Kip Thorne, David Deuthsch, Yakir
- Aharonov,Igor Novikov and other visionaries (Roger Penrose) working on
- real time-travel physics - as well as to explore my new "minimally non
- unitary QM" and Steve Weinberg's new non-unitary QM which does permit
- FTL connection communication etc. We would also need a reserve endowment
- of $50,000,000 in case experiments were deemed necessary in that period.
- We would also develop educational multi-media and VR software teaching
- relativity, quantum mechanics etc. to kids who would be the future
- star ship cadets to make Star Trek Real and to fullfill our destiny of
- Space Migration, Intelligence Increase and Life Extension.
