Gravitomagnetism?

The Faraday experiment. For gravity.

Imric's Tips for Living

Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.

Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.

Wait for replication

This experiment looks solid. But people have been playing with this idea for a decade and failing to get results replicated when another lab does the experiment.

*chuckle* Don't worry. I'm not investing in anything...

10e20?

Sounds like a small discrepancy - Tally Ho!

I like the fact that they ran it 250 times

and that the papers are available. We'll see what others make of it. I've actually forwarded the article to Ross; I'm really curious what he makes of it...

I thought about Ross as well.

But, I hope corroboration, if any, would come form a different experimental set up. It could be there's some other explanation for results that wasn't considered.

Comparison: PBS's recent "Ghost Particle" neutrino story

- expected 10 solar neutrinos; counted 3..
some decades later, the missing seven are accounted for
(and neutrinos are determined to have mass, therefore experience 'time'; ergo: change their state 'twixt sun and planet); all the guffaws re 'experimental eptness' of the original pair -- compensated by a Nobel. Love. It.

So then: all that angst re 3/10 -?-
should be Interesting with 10e20; sociologically at the Least.
