Refutes most of your points, stating stabilization is the most difficult part of the process (Page 29, Table 10)
It's also worth noting that DARPA were only measuring in the range of seconds. If the delayed trigger states outlined in fig. 9 and the decay constants outlined on page 39 (equal to 0.1724/sec) then there's a fairly decent chance they didn't detect anything.
The DARPA article published also implies they used a more powerful device expecting a more powerful return. I'm not entirely clear on everything in this paper but the decay pulse seems to have a lot to do with the initial charge presented and further pulses to stabilize the decay process.
It's also worth noting NATO ARW began THEIR research in 1995 and reported positive results but refused to publish their material in 1997 (
two years before Collins). Imaginary Weapons by Sharon Weinberger also has a quote from Chantal, Briancon indicating that Collins' stole data whereas DARPA's Texas team has come out in saying that the data doesn't match theirs, then there's the goddamn drama between Weinberger and Collins (
http://www.defensetech.org/archives/2006_06.html) which seems to further bury any chance this has of being true.
One of NATO's core values include the nuclear disarmament of nations and publishing these findings would have been counter-productive to their cause.
NATO follow a similar structure to DARPA in terms of their research so it's quite plausible this isn't the first project they've scuttled (DARPA's famous parallel being John Hutchinson and the rather scary parallels with Project Philadelphia's presented axioms of the antigravity and energy ideas in the pursuit of stealth via the use of high frequency electrical devices)
The best way to scare people off a trail is to introduce a Hutchinson type character which is exactly what they've done.
This is one hell of a lot of drama for something that has been disproven.
Now it's just slander and mockery which is unscientific. Noone will want to get involved because it could jeopardize their own credibility.
Don't you find that a bit fishy?

Anyway, to hell with conspiracy stories. I'll just remind you that the public have always been lied to and that science is always changing. You dismiss QNC, you dismiss the notion of electromagnetic impulses messing with the fabric of spacetime and therefor the notion of gravitational manipulation (superfluid ferrofluid centrifuges using angular momentum to distort spacetime, something NASA took one shot at, grumbled at the very positive results with their tiny poorly engineered example then packed the whole thing in because Government 'said so').
You open a huge can of worms bringing this up:
Aether = BS? I could go on, but I really don't want to. I'm not interested in drama. At the very least we created coherent rules based on the laws of nature and physics.
If you
really want to freak out, look up Gödel's work with incompleteness and Chatin's work with in-computability and Goldbach's Conjecture.
Mathamatics, the language of physics, is a very very strange thing.
Then of course there's the chance I've just discredited myself in your eyes, which may have been the whole purpose of this thread but to be honest, I don't really care.
