Davis,
Just in relation to the lifters, when I constructed my first "unsuccessfull" lifter (found it was too heavy) and subsequent successfull (and much lighter) lifter there was a noticeable "breeze" eminating from the underside of the lifter during operation, wether this is an "ION WIND" or not I would'nt know but it was definately there, I did several experiments with simple things like tissue paper to test air flow etc. and there was definately a "WIND" of some sort which blew the tissue paper in all directions!! If you suspend the lifter from one of it's sides then the whole unit would move in the opposite direction of "thrust" in ever increasing circles. Just some useless info for your consumption.

: Here is what is required for this experiment (Thanks Brett, 25,000KV should be fine!) Firstly construct an asymetric capacitor frame like this:
: cathode
: ------------------
: --------|---------
: I \|/arrow = flow of ZPF
: I
: 15cm I DD balance CC
: seperation I DD-------------O--------------CC between I DD CC
: terminals- I Di-electric Counterweight
: I
: anode ++++++++++++++++++
: ////////////////////////////////////////////
: Insulating surface
: For the best effects, I suggest using a small anode (loop of copper wire) and a large cathode (aluminium foil)like on a lifter. Seperate the two terminals by about 15 cms (enough to fit a crude balance between them) for the crude balance just take two di-electric masses of equal weight, (two rubbers or something else that doesn't conduct electricity-try to keep the weight down, about 10 gramms, no more) conect them by a pencil or something and balance them on an edge, it shouldn't be too diffuicult. Place one mass of the balance in between the terminals as shown on the diagram. If the zero point field is being accelerated between terminals then it would cause the balance to tilt towards the anode. (that is if the effect is not due to some ion wind/migration related phenomena) Any way, if it is possible for you to do this, would you post the results on the discussion board (I am sure that Scott would be most interested) Many thanks.
