    Paul LaViolette and Pulsars as ETI Beacons -- a question

    I'm merely fishing to see if anyone has previous experience with LaViolette's theories -- I'd rather not devote the next week of my research to discovering the man is a crank.

    For anyone unfamiliar but curious, I'd recommend the following links:

    ^^a very readable intro to the theory

    http://www.etheric.com/LaVioletteBooks/Book-Talk.html

    ^^a summary of his most recent book

    Thanks in advance.

    The fact that he is charging for the book to explain his idea should raise all sorts of warning flags. If there was actually anything to this, he would have authored several papers explaining his idea in any of the more well known journals and probably be a lot more well known than he is.

    ^^Well, he did, I read over his white papers and they interested me quite a bit.

    You can, too:

    I've read his stuff. His work is interesting. He models etheric transactions as similar to chemical reactions. I think the Correas have done it correctly.

    As far as pulsars being ET beacons, I subscribe to the Electric Universe, and to me they are pulsed plasma phenomena.
    Probably similar to PAGD type discharge.
    No super dense matter that because it spins so fast it should fly apart but it doesn't.
