So What Is EU/PC? For too many years now cosmologists and astrophysicists have developed their models around a gravitycentric theory, as if electricity has no role in space. Nothing could be further from the truth. The electric universe/plasma cosmology theories do not seek to dismiss gravity , but to enhance our understanding of the universe by acknowledging the role that the far superior force of electricity plays not only here on Earth (as if by some unique miracle), but also throughout the cosmos. Nature doesn’t do things the hard way. Plasma cosmology is nothing new . Pioneers such as Kristian Birkeland, Irving Langmuir, Hannes Alfvén, Ralph Juergens, Halton Arp, Anthony Peratt and others have been investigating the electric alternative to gravitycentric models for a century now, and utilizing such tools as observation , laboratory replication and computer simulation to develop their theories. Meanwhile mainstream cosmologists have not only ignored but also denied the role of electricity in space, despite recent plasma laboratory experimentation which tends to support the electical theorists , and offered us an ever-increasing list of ad hoc patches for their theories which are continually confounded by even the most recent observations made since the ’space age’ began. The disastrous results have been the inception of the big bang, black holes, dark matter, dark energy and a host of other hypothetical entities which rightly belong in the field of science fiction, rather than science fact. Why Should I Care? Why should you care? Because, it’s your money, Ralph! Billions are spent chasing these invisible, fictional entities around the universe and inventing extra dimensions and fanciful notions which can never be tested, whilst the little which gets spent on furthering our understanding of plasma science does nothing but confirm the position of the electrical theorists . But that’s just my take on it, and to take my word for it would be as foolish as taking the word of the mainstream scientists that nothing really did go BANG (?!?!) to create the universe we observe today. Explore it for yourself. Have an open mind. I am sure that if you follow the evidence, you’ll come away with a completely different concept of the universe than the one you grew up with. And it can’t hurt to at least have a look at it, can it? It is my hope that you enter this site into the ’favourites’ section ofwith these companies, and are not to be seen as explicit endorsement for anyone else’s needs, but simply an acknowledgement of those I have had great service and products from. HostMonster.com Web Hosting "HostMonster has been providing hosting solutions to thousands of business and personal web sites since 1996. Our internet hosting package helps businesses and individuals get high-powered service at a fraction of the cost." HostMonster.com When I first set up this site, I used a host which whilst cheap, once things began to get busy for me, could not offer the service I required to keep the site running smoothly. I recently moved the site to HostMonster, and I know already that their service is great, as I moved the Thunderbolts site to the HostMonster servers some months ago, after running into difficulties with their old site hosts too. Since dealing with HostMonster for many months now, I have found their service to be outstanding. Their "help center" is not outsourced like many, and you can even contact them by phone 24/7 to get help when you’re at your wits end. And considering their great service, their deals are very competitively priced.

[ top ] OpenOffice.org Free Office Suite I use OpenOffice freeware for all of my often complicated word processing needs (though I write my HTML code in Notepad++). OpenOffice Writer has enabled me to make a large private collection of newsworthy events of interest to me, and I also keep track of pic credits and details using their program. With it I can open and create documents in all the leading formats, and create PDF files to share information easily via e-mail with those who may not have the expensive programs, as you can download Adobe Reader free if you don’t have it already.
