Dear All!
I finaly addressed justified concerns voiced recently
by several readers, that my Lifter Theory web-site
http://members.tripod.com/~sudy_zhenja/lifter_theory
is too difficult to navigate for non Ph.D.-s.

Such concerns obviously were a call to action
for me, as that is the one and only site where Ion
Drift theory of Lifter propulsion (which many have first
mistaken with antigravity) was first proposed and proved,
equations are derived, relationships explored and new designs
are proposed. While theory has been since mirrored at
lots of other sites, original documents still are most
updated and most cross-linked with new confirmations
and derived developments.

Considering education of beginners is just as important
as serving to seasoned Lifter-pros and physic-gurus, I completely redisigned
the web-site, clearly separating parts where basic explanation of
effect is given (extending them with pictures, diagrams
and links). All previous links are preserved, so don't worry
about updating your sites referencing my materials.

Lifter FAQ is now separated as special page, which makes it
easy to find.

There is no longer any need to collect all equations from
many separate articles. They are all now summarized in
on place called Lifter Toolbox, which also offers mathcad file for
Life Calculations for your particular configuration
(link to free MathCad viewer is given).

To make it short - visit the site and see it for yourself:

It isn't difficult to navigate, it's bull****.

1) No lifter works in vacuum.
2) No lifter can lift a sealed membrane/balloon in which it is
encased, even if the balloon is inflated to neutral boyancy with a mix
of lighter-than-air inert gas.
3) No propulsive modality of any kind is worth its weight in cow
**** if it scales as surface area. Payload scales as volume.

Your rage have clouded your eies. Points 1 and 2 is exactly what
my web-site is saying (but brings a well documented proof). I think
prefer to educate the amators with arguments and derivations based
on valid physics to just yelling at them. That has additional advantage of introducing
to some not highly educated, yet highly motivated Lifter enthusiasts parts
of physic which they might have never learn about otherwise.

Point 3) - where did you get that ionic propulsion scales as surface area?
It actually scales as volume, as force F=i*d/k, i is proportional to the emmiter
surface, d is distance between emmiter and collector, so F is proportional to volume...

Conventionaly Lifter-builders used single wire/collector, so the volume effect is not
obvious. But for any large design an array of parallel corona-wires would be used, which
would be in electrical sense close to a plate-emmiter. Collector can be a mesh perpendicular
to the collector-corona axis.
