What Happened???

[Radiant_Science]

I'm just wondering if anyone knows the status of researcher Jean-Louis Naudin??
He was always up to date with his website...but, the last posts he has made was on Jul, 31, 2008...a mere 5 days after his Stanley Meyer replication was posted (a new version was in the works too).
I'm kinda worried

What's New

[lighty]

I know I'm late replying to this question but here it goes.


First of all JLN project employed several people. You didn't really think one guy can make all the stuff, test it, make all 3D graphics and post on mailing lists all day long, every day of the year?

At the beginning of this year I spoke with the guy who got most of JLN measurement equipment during the last quarter of 2008. What he told me is that JLN have had Danish (or was it Norwegian, I don't remember now) investor who got pissed because he found out some measurements by JLN were faked and distorted on purpose. There were also some financial troubles and accusations. At that point Danish investor withdrew his funding and took away his equipment. Most of it ended at that guy's place who is not even close to France and who is doing behind the scene testing and development of some inventions and technologies for that same investor (AFAIK it's a group of investors but I never made any direct contact with them).

That's the information I have but IMO it was long time coming. During years I checked some of JLN claims and some times the stuff he promoted didn't work like he presented it (like MEG for example and Bearden had to put a stop to the JLN rumours) and some stuff I and others checked and find they were working were shunned as ineffective by JLN. I'm not sure why he did it like that and I don't really care. The fact is that most of his equipment were taken away by his (former) investor. He had nice looking experiments and nice looking graphics on his website and they looked very convincing. Too bad some of them were bogus.

JLN was the only guy I know of besides Bearden who claims to have actually gotten the MEG to work. I have had serious doubts about him since then.
The more experiments I do, the more I get to know what works and what doesn't. For months I did a lot of building and experiments trying to make the MEG work. Nothing I tried worked even slightly. It finally dawned on me, after trying everything I could think of, that the MEG DOES NOT WORK as described. Switched magnetic flux from a permanent magnet will induce ZERO electrical current into a coil. It's like running DC through a transformer and expecting induction to take place. Faraday was wrong about the change in flux being the causative effect in induction, and the MEG proves it.
Of course, Bearden never comes out and admits this, or even mentions it in his explanation, which makes me highly suspicious of Bearden too. His whole shtick is BS in my opinion. I seriously suspect Bearden of being at least disingenuous, and more probably purposefully misleading. I don't believe a word he says anymore.
I've come to the conclusion that anyone who has been in this field for years and years, and only has theory to show for it, should be ignored. I only pay attention to people who are sincerely experimenting or building stuff that actually works (like you guys here are). Theories without experimental results to back them up are just so much hot air. I'm real tired of all the chaff.

JLN and his claims that MEG work as advertised in patent were so preposterous that finally Bearden had to admit that it couldn't work that way because he omitted key info in patent (which is to be expected). In Bearden's defense I have to say that he said on several occasions that MEG doesn't work exactly like described in the patent. He also admitted that he and people around him have had trouble getting it going and tune it even when they are fully committed for months at a time. At least that's what he said.

In any case that was also one of the JLN bull*s*h*i*t stories that alienated him from investors.

Hammered the nail on the head - full force!

H E A R - H E A R !! I proclaim myself not alone anymore.

Big talks, big maths; no experiment is just ZERO.

Our coin

It's fine to have a theory; if you don't have one, you haven't been paying attention.

It's fine to experiment; if you don't, your words are like empty shells.

Few of us bring it all together, and develop theory which can be tested. When we manage that, one leads to the other... Left, right, left, right; walk forward, or two steps forward one step back and to the side... This is the dance that brings in and orchestrates the progress.

Hopping up and down (on either leg) is for children and clowns.

Experiment is our coin.
