I believe you are correct that Sparky did not understand his device and
therefore could not generate a patient, mass produce the device, or tell
anyone how to build one that would work. Incidentually, how does one
'stumble' into building something so complex and not understand what
they are doing? Did he have a dream or UFO abduction where someone
gave him this design? (-:

Do we know what his setup was in order for others to try to duplicate what
he has done? If he did get it to work, at one time, seems if 100 units
were built and each tested throughly by individuals, there might be a 1/100
chance (1%) that someone will find out how to make it work.... that is if
the 100 people believe that this all is NOT a lie...

Well, can you, or does Keelynet contain, a writeup of Dons', Mikes', yours,
or Sweets' experimental design and testing? I think we all know that
Sweets device did/does exist, Bearden test results, video film
and characteristics of the unit - is al proof that he did have something
working. I do remember Sweet stating the it defies physical laws and
that the transformer/coil does not act like the classical coil. Guess we
need to generate some new physics unless it all can be explained
by QM.
