How did Gerry Vassilatos know ?

[qvision]

Hi.

I've been re-reading The Secrets of Cold War Technology, by Gerry Vassilatos.

My main interest is his fairly detailed discourse on Tesla's process of discovery of radiant energy.

Where did the author get this detail, does anyone know ?

I have many books about Tesla, i have all the patents, the lectures, but nowhere do i see the kind of detail that Vassilato comes up with.

Does anyone know what his sources were ?

I would ask Borderland for a contact e-mail address but i can't send a message to them, either via their website or their facebook page.


Regards,

Gary.

Ive wondered the same thing myself, seems that the book is the only source of info....cant find any other references....which makes me think hmmm

[Shamus]

Do people actually read anymore?

Hmm, why, there's an extensive bibliography in that book that covers pages 308 to 321 with the works of Mr. Tesla taking up most of page 319.

Hmm indeed. I guess Mr. Vassilatos pulled all of that out of his a$$. Didn't do any research whatsoever.

i have wondered the same thing. His references point to books at borderlands...so where did they get this information from

[Farmhand]

This Book. It has the principals needed for pretty much anything.

No more spam from me, I promise. Unless someone is interested that is. Of course! I love this stuff. Very interesting indeed.

I wonder the same thing. What Vassilatos mentioned is not mentioned everywhere else. Young Tesla with gifted sight for instance...

Hi sucahyo, if gifted sight is the same as seeing non-physical things then I have heard that from several papers.

But yeah I also always wondered about his sources....
I really don't fancy the art of belief without a good reason, and Vasilatos made a great deal of assumptions in the tesla chapter (I haven't read the whole chapter through tough).

Would maybe Dr. Peter Lindemann know. He seems to know a lot about the book, and didn't he used to be with Borderlands. Just guessing.

Well, Shamus. When it comes to what his private (unpublished) experimental method was, and his thoughts and feelings as he discovered radiant energy, that certainly isn't contained in any of the bibliographic sources or even the Colorado Springs notes, so it does make one wonder.

I'm not having a go at Mr Vassilatos, merely wondering whether he has done some 'embroidering' for the purpose of a lively discourse.

There are certain 'bench' details which appear in neither the lectures nor the patents of Tesla, i was hoping Mr Vassilatos had some other source which perhaps we could all be made privy to.

Maybe he had access to Tesla's Serbian writings that were not translated or
something. There probably is still a lot of hidden information about Tesla. They
sure did a good job of keeping information surrounding him obscured for so many years. It has only been recently, that a lot of this information is now available.

That's an idea FRC

The museum over there still say they have stacks of papers and prototypes not showcased as yet ...

There is an article on the Borderlands website written by George Trinkaus called The Tesla Mistique, which debunks popular myths regarding Tesla:

The Tesla Mystique | Journal of Borderland Research

In it it mentions where Vassilatos obtained his information on Tesla:

Vassilatos mined Tesla’s notes in archives found in the annex of the New York Central Library.

Had Vassilatos made a more detailed bibliography for each chapter then I don't think we would be having this discussion. However, there are some things he wrote on Tesla that raise an eyebrow, such as Tesla using a flying machine at Colorado Springs.

Vassilatos also wrote an 11 volume work called "Vril Compendium" and some of the information relating to what Vassilatos discussed in Lost Sciences and Secrets of Cold War Technology can be found in those volumes.

Ahhh, nice one Phi or Phil.

Thanks for that

It is not "How did Gerry Vassilatos know ?", it is "What kind of drug was Gerry on?".

Also, Tesla wished to determine the effect of gradually decreased impulse durations required greatest skill and precaution. Tesla knew that he would be exposing himself to mortal danger. Controlling the rapidity of current blowout in the magnetic DC arc, Tesla released a new spectrum of light-like energies throughout his large gallery space. These energetic species were like no other which the world has since seen. Tesla found that impulse duration alone defined the effect of each succinct spectrum. These effects were completely distinctive, endowed with strange additional qualities never purely experienced in Nature. Moreover, Tesla observed distinct color changes in the discharge space when each impulse range had been reached or crossed. Never before seen discharge colorations did not remain a mystery for long. Trains of impulses, each exceeding 0.1 millisecond duration, produced pain and mechanical pressures. In this radiant field, objects visibly vibrated and even moved as the force field drove them along. Thin wires, exposed to sudden bursts of the radiant field, exploded into vapor. Pain and physical movements ceased when impulses of 100 microseconds or less were produced. These latter features suggested weapon systems of frightful potentials.

With impulses of 1.0 microsecond duration, strong physiological heat was sensed. Further decreases in impulse brought spontaneous illuminations capable of filling rooms and vacuum globes with white light At these impulse frequencies, Tesla was able to stimulate the appearance of effects which are normally admixed among the electromagnetic energies inherent in sunlight. Shorter impulses produced cool room penetrating breezes, with an accompanying uplift in mood and awareness.

Not only he writes as if he was looking over Tesla's shoulder and reading his mind, there is no record of these experiments other than these produced by Gerry.
What went on in Gerry's mind when he wrote this 0.1 ms, 100 us 1 us fables.
I don't believe there are any 'notes to be mined in archives of the annex of the NY Central Library' that aren't all over the i-net already.
Tesla flying around Colorado Springs???
Yeah right!

Gerry laid the foundation on which others have built their fantasies and so the strangest theories were brought forth.
I came across Gerry's fantasies while reading 'what others wrote about Tesla' and it strengthened my believe that if you want to know about Tesla, READ TESLA and do not pay any attention to what others say.
(I wanted to open a thread but found that this one is already there. Doesn't hurt to bring it up again.)

Maybe it's not all fiction ? "On the Dissipation of the Electrical Energy of the Hertz Resonator"
