I never fit in. It didn’t bother me very much, but my heterodox way of looking at things made life more difficult than it should’ve been. There were times when I wished I could be a magnificent blockhead, marching in lockstep with my peers. Well, I’ve been purged forever of even the slightest wistfulness over…
Explosive force can be directed and used to defeat bombs
March 7, 2016
The videos coming out of Syria show new weapons. Through battle-damage assessment (BDA), I can determine what a munition is doing. Then I go looking for patents. First I found a patent for ordnance that combines fuel-air explosive (FAE) with a warhead that creates nonnuclear electromagnetic pulses (EMPs). Now I’ve located the patent for directing…

What a difference five days make. The fact that downtown Cologne, Germany, is now a “no-go area” for women made me decide that it’s time to explain what’s happening in Syria. My little blog won’t change a thing anyway, and we need to puncture this deranged balloon of protection we’ve put around Muslim criminals. I’m…
Experts and their opinions are becoming more and more unreliable
