Most op-eds have links back to original sources, not hard to find. Either way, that's not the point - you're essentially strawmanning. The concept behind this machine isn't psuedo-scientific.

Again, had you read the article......you wouldn't be asking me this question.





I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies.

No. It's a reasonable request. Read the article.

I'm not going to do your work for you in each and every one of my responses to you. I think once is enough.

I quoted from the article, how does that mean I didn't read it. If you mean read the paper Rhythm pointed to, I asked him which one is applicable and all I got was some bullshit snarky remark from him.

We are not your search engine, nor are we your eyes or brain. Go to the page, and use your brain to determine which paper is talking about this particular machine.

...and while you're at it, drop the fucking attitude.

Yup.

You know what, had you taken a different approach, and perhaps asked for a link to something more substantive, you might just have got what you wanted.
