I was aware of the individual you quote, but I did not realize just how developed that his company had developed this. Wow!

This is already a real product. No surprise, it was developed with the military involved, but there currently exists a fabric that hides objects immediately behind it from the EM spectrum - including IR. See (http://www.hyperstealth.com/Quantum-Stea...)

That's quite a story. You should probably contact Jay Sekulow. He is the lawyer seeking damages against the government for Tea Party persecutions. In general, I am not a big fan of lawyers other than patent lawyers, but any way that we can drain the federal leviathan's cash is Ragnar-like retribution. To my knowledge, the only Tea Party persecution in my county came from the Republican Party of Florida. The then-president of the RPOF is now in jail and his boss, then Governor Charlie Crist, is now running for governor as a Democrat. That persecution was primarily defamatory, but our county's duly elected representative to the RPOF was kicked out for calling A = A on Jim Greer, the now jailed, then president of the RPOF. Greer saw to it that several Tea Party incumbents at the county and state rep level were primaried and funded by RPOF money. That was the end of my ever donating to the Republican Party. They view people like us as the enemy.

You won't miss it. We will undoubtedly ask for a consult on proper places for nearby fishing, bassboat.

Interesting. This is far more pervasive than I knew.

Many of the new technologies are not being created in research labs. But in normal peoples homes or basements and garages. The following is a list You Tube video sites where hobbies are will be the new tech: Overunity.com,- energy devices of all sorts,
Lasersaber- Atmospheric energy devices, Crystal Batteries, Pulse Motors, Magnetic Motors & Capacitor driven machines,
The Art of Weapons- 14 yr. old Aussie boy Plastic Slingshots from molten plastics, Crude aluminum smelter, Sand casting molds, Annealing old files to make knives.
Adafruit Industries- Raspberry Pi DIY micro computer & plug modules,
Coil Guns- DIY electromagnetic rail guns,
Gauss Guns- electromagnetic rail guns; this is where are next John Galts are.
All this material is available from Ebay and other websites.
Electrostatics will provide not only power but also a Cloaking Field. From Adafruit out of New York you can purchase components to build an almost palm size computer for under a hundred dollars. Build your own batteries composed of molten crystal salts, copper pipe and magnesium rod.
there are steel products like Rearden Metal already on the market. Soon 3D Printers will be able to use spools of same said metal wire to create useful products. I plan to build some crystal batteries in a few months using a different organic mineral salts. Will definitely build the Strawberry Pi computer once I familiarize myself with the manual I downloaded from the internet.
Please go to Youtube and watch these videos they'll blow your mind.

Thanks, Owlsrayne. My group can already print tin metal for DIY 3D-printed circuit boards. Working with higher melting point metals is a research project I recently started. I just bought a laser for the laser sintering aspect of that, but it's not here yet from Hong Kong.

Most people aren't aware of them, but those in rural areas have to live under the constant assault of that agenda in a story all too real. The preservationists have imaged and mapped every square foot of rural America with satellite and airplane photography in addition to on the ground trespass, are tracking development and land use on private land, and have for decades been compiling hit lists for areas they want the government to take over in the name of one excuse or another, which is just about all of it. The idea that anyone can move off into a remote natural area to be safe from government is a myth. For most of it, it only brings more attention to you for being an 'evil developer threat' in a 'pristine' area. The Nature Conservancy is doing the same thing internationally for international Biosphere reserves, etc. Only they know if they are now tracking all of it worldwide to the degree of scope and intensity it is happening here.

let me know when it happens in case I miss it.

We would be flush with engineers of every stripe. I've got degrees in mechanical and electrical engineering and picked up a civil engineering degree in the early 90's from UTEP as I was building a contracting firm. The federal guys liked to see a degree so I gave them one.

I'm not factually certain, but I do suspect a relationship. 2008 and on was the first time I was political vocal. 2010 began a period where I was extremely vocal with my opposition to BO online. The only things that were questioned were my donations to my church and our Tea Party group. It really was not excessive, just proof of the donations. The problems were all from "higher up" where my income was questioned and they were certain I was hiding income (I wasn't) they felt that I could not do what I did - they were wrong. Then there was a typo in their office that multiplied my income 10 times and demanded immediate payment of $100,000 that would be refunded if it was proved I didn't actually owe it.

This all happened as I was rereading how Reardon received notice of his accounts being frozen and sudden taxes being owed - on money that was not his.

In the end they admitted that I truly did not owe money, that my tax payments actually exceeded the amount I owed, but no refund would be made - that one made me laugh. If I'd owed them $10 they would have hounded me to the grave.

I forgot to add that the whole ordeal took over a year to finally clear up. I can't express just how miserable we were during this period. It took the joy out of our lives.

Nice to meet you, ShruginArgentina.

No problem, JB. I "shrugged" when I decided to open a retail leather shop during my sophomore year in college (and not pursue a career in law and politics).

I you click on my user name and see the topics I have submitted you will know more about me simply by reading the titles.

You can also "see" where my "head was at" (aka mindset) six months before I shrugged by reading what I wrote in this post:

http://www.galtsgulchonline.com/posts/6a...

Check out the new post on "Buying a private island" and find the link to the idea of a "New Utopia". Building on an underwater Caribbean ridge is somewhat appealing. Also interesting is Robbie's post recently called "Atlantis found?"

Reading that must have been very interesting indeed.

Thanks for sharing, stargeezer. In that case, I won't have to get any kilns on my way out of here. I can help with the gas part of the gas kilns. Many of us have our stories of how we have shrugged. Yours is one of the more interesting I have heard. Do you have reason to believe the direct intervention by the IRS to be politically motivated?

I was aware of each of those laws and policies, but the interweaving of fact and Midas Mulligan and the exact land plot number was a story well told.

I'm pretty certain that the concept of private or hidden went out the window when the geosynchronous satellite system appeared overhead.

I remember several calls by Libertarians to take over New Hampshire or Delaware by moving there en mass and taking over the political system. I also recall some suggestions for the same in small Central American countries. None has ever come to pass.

I have sometimes imagined Galt's Gulch would come in the form of an island a la Thomas Perry's novel "Island". An interesting read, a guy scuttles a couple of old ships on a sandbar that's only above water at low tide out in an unclaimed area in the Caribbean. Voila, he created his own country, or a potential Galt's Gulch.

Sorry for the confusion, ShruginArgentina. Shrugging at such a young age is particularly impressive.

Note of explanation: My last name is the same as one of the cities in the radius of project X and my hometown is also one of the cities.

If I am an heiress to anything I've had a sex change operation without my knowledge and definitely against my will. ;-).

I actually "shrugged" when I was 19 and I decided to "Go Galt" in Argentina in 2010, after moving to Buenos Aires in 2006.

The decision to move to Argentina in 2006 was not predicated on anything that was happening in the USA at that time. The decision to "Go Galt" in Argentina was based entirely on what has happened in the USA since 2008.

The most important "material" here is fertile earth.

I can't take credit for it. It's not fiction. All of it is based on existing laws and government policy. You couldn't dream these things up on your own. If Ayn Rand had included it in Atlas Shrugged it would have been considered too unbelievable for fiction. A lot of people today still don't know it is happening.

I have a couple Skutt Kilns and a 40cf downdraft gas kiln. Other goodies I'll be bringing can be seen at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oP4qRIe4... and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yu437UU9... the gas kiln pics are not online anymore. I'll have to get them up sometime.

This was my studio when the IRS began hassling me and I decided it was time to shrug and went on strike. I locked the door and moved the equipment home and now I only make pieces for me and as gifts to special friends. I went from producing 15,000 pieces a year to now making a few hundred.

Not to long ago I made a 68 piece set of dishes and servers for a friend in Reno NV. It was carried to them by their parents (my next door neighbor). The entire order if I was selling it would have been around $3000, but I made it for them for the cost of production - and the IRS got $0.00.

I will not work at any productive job that will result in ANY tax dollars going to support a government that's become oppressive to the people. Under BO, this is as close to living under 10-289 as I ever thought we would be.

I'm on strike.

Are you perhaps an heiress to a copper fortune? If so, we should talk. I am a materials scientist, although copper is definitely not specialty.

Imagine my surprise when, as a seventeen year old high school senior reading Atlas Shrugged for the first time, I discovered that my last name as well as the name of my hometown and state appear in the same sentence of the novel :-).
