Re: FTL, antigravity, etc.

["Hans G. Ammitzboll" <physics@MINDLESS.COM>]

Here's another interesting one.  This guy's page is actually full
of equations which supposedly support his claim of anti-gravity. 
(Follow some of his links at the bottom for his experimental results). 
This one belongs in the "I'll build one when I get the right tools" bin.

        It would be interesting to read the file history, if anybody wants
to pay for it.  You can order at the given URL.

Adam was by constitution and proclivity a scientist; I was the same, and
we loved to call ourselves by that great name...Our first memorable
scientific discovery was the law that water and like fluids run downhill,
not up.
