New experiments set to detect gravitational waves!
"The idea is to deploy ultra-sensitive interferometers at various
points around the globe. They are very large L shaped devices and work by measuring the time it takes for a photon delivered from a laser to move from one end of the device to the other. If a gravitational wave strikes, it should cause the length of the device to change, increasing or decreasing the time it takes for a photon to traverse the distance." http://phys.org/news/2013-05-gravitational.html Double-A |

Same thing has been going on for years at LIGO http://www.ligo.caltech.edu/ Multi-Millions of dollars later,...nothing, other than a lot of personally rich scientists. |

At least they're not living on the street like yourself, and perhaps by accident they'll confirm aether or make better Jello. |

Our tax dollars will pay for the research, and when they use it to make better Jello,..... ......Monstanto, Nestle, and Bill Cosby, will patent it, and charge us a fortune to buy it |
