Ah, I see now... two seperate wires? Err... trying to imagine how you'd
wind that...

Newsflash, Jerry: All vector magnetic fields result from scalars -- hence,
phase-cancellation of *ANY* kind will result in a scalar being produced.
The magntiude of the scalar stress depends upon the degree of
cancellation. One way to test this little theory would be to take two
caduceus coils, pointed at each other, and try varrying the way the wires
are wound around them (so that they cross at odd-angles instead of 180
degrees)... you should still see scalar effects.

And according to what I just said, this makes sense, then... but the
scalar stress created won't nearly be as great as with a caduceus coil.

Sounds more like somebody's playing with your head, Jerry. :) The universe
is holographic (this is my belief - at least for now). I say this only
because our three-dimensional reality has to result from some definite
process, and holography provides some kind of explanation of what
dimension *IS*. It's comfortable enough for me, anyway.

Sounds great - so when are you going to build one? :) I don't know about
you, but I don't have the time nor the money to undertake such a
project... please tell me you or *SOMEBODY* does.
