Have you invented your own vocabulary to substitute for what is more
commonly known as Pixie Dust? Research that term first to confirm or
deny.

As an aside, what has this got to do with the focus (eg. antennas) of
this forum? Did the moderators kick you out of eHam?

Every thing!
They are static particles that rest on diamagnetic materials
used for antennas. These particular lunar particle coverings was
predicted more than a hundred years ago by the masters which
is before radio was even thought of . I would have thought
that the subject of antennas would fit right in here!

OK, now we have an English word to work with.

From http://en.wikipedia.org:

"Diamagnetism is a form of magnetism that is only exhibited by a substance
in the presence of an externally applied magnetic field."

"All materials show a diamagnetic response in an applied magnetic field;
however for materials which show some other form of magnetism (such as
ferromagnetism or paramagnetism), the diamagnetism is completely
overpowered. Substances which only, or mostly, display diamagnetic
behaviour are termed diamagnetic materials, or diamagnets. Materials
that are said to be diamagnetic are those which are usually considered
by non-physicists as "non magnetic", and include water, DNA, most organic
compounds such as petroleum and some plastics, and many metals such as
mercury, gold and bismuth."

So would Art's magic pixie dust particles rest on a ferromagnetic
antenna such as one constructed of a ferrous based alloy?

There is no such word in English as "diagmatic"
Suggest you do a Google search next time "before" you put your foot in

Google shows 24 hits for "diagmatic".

4 are non-English sites.

1 is from eHam.net in an article by Art.

It could well be a use of the word diagmatic since it is used
extensively
in quantum studies of chemicals and the human body. It may well be a
derivative
of the word diagmagnetic or it may well be a word that is gaining in
use.
Either way I would decline to call it a non word on what I know.
I would have thought the subject matter would have been more
important
than just name calling but I will ascede to your wishes and contain
myself
to the word
DIAGMAGNETIC and try to avoid latin derivitations

I'm sorry but I will have to let you go. I am like others
prone to spelling errors when using the internet and it is
certainly not my intent to offend others who want to
procrastinate about such things to the exclusion of
every thing else However you do have a history of name
calling and procrastination which is testing my civility
to its limits. I wish you well in your future endeavers
with the expectation that they do not involve me. For myself
I also will avoid involvement with you
Bye Bye

Do you have the slightest clue what "procrastinate" and "procrastination"
mean?

It doesn't appear so.

So would most, but your topic is Pixie Dust (look at the subject
line).

This is probably why eHam has revoked your privileges.

It is believed that in prehistoric times, an ice comet collided with the
earth with so much force*at a spot near the Yucatan Peninsula, that a
chunck was dislodged and hurled into orbit. This collected and compacted
becoming the earth`s moon. The moon should be expected to contain
minerals similar to those on earth. NASA`s missions to the moon
confirmed it wasn`t really green cheese but rather very similar to the
stuff on earth.

NASA`s business is finding and confirming scientific information. NASA
has landed on Mars and sent rovers over its surface in a search for
conditions permitting some sort of life.

On January 21, NASA and ESA (European Space Agency) landed a scientific
package on Titan, one of Saturn`s moons with some similarities to Earth.
It reports back that the atmosphere is 96.3% H2 (hydrogen). Titan is too
far to go for a clean-burning fuel.

The package landed on Titan was thought to need a radio repeater aboard
its orbiting mother-ship to relay data to earth. Crossed signals in this
arrangement did not immediately work. Fortunately, the Robert C. Byrd
radio telescope in Green Bank. W. VA was able to pick up the data
signals directly from the data package on the ground at Titan and there
was much relief on earth.

NASA has used spectrum analyzers on light from many bodies in the cosmos
to determine what atonic elements are associated with various bodies in
space. They now have a good idea of their compositions.

An atom is the smallest particle with unique characteristics. Subatomic
particles are similar regardless of their source.

And ?????.............

Yes We have read all that on the net but why are you repeating that?
Did you intend to make a specific point but accidently hit "send"?
I look forward to the point that you were preparing to make and to
what it was directed to

Not at all, Arthur. WELCOME BACK TO THE PIT OF HELL! where you seek
solace from your bruising. The acclaim to your theories at eHam is
about as amusing as they are here. ;-)

I particularly enjoyed Tom's response about clicking Ruby Slippers to
make something come true. I wouldn't wish the hall monitors to snub
your fulminations (although it appears several of your new-found
correspondents wouldn't mind) as I anxiously await your inundating Tom
with a gallon of spit.

Isn't amazing how these academic idylls of civil discourse (populated
by gentlemany of infinite wisdom) crumble into viper's nests when you
arrive? The term correlation comes to mind, but I don't know what
word it would be in your vocabulary so as to make the concept
meaningful to you.

For others who haven't read that comic strip, Arthur has proven
Einstein was wrong! Well, proven in the sense that Arthur proves
anything. Which is to say "he said so." After all, there is nothing
mentioned about anything specific from Einstein (special theory?
general theory? the photon theory? the cosmological constant?). That
is best left to our imagination as Arthur has dismissed it all with a
wave of the hand, whiting out Einstein's name on the Nobel prize to
pencil in Art.
