Norlan,
Thanks for the response. I am really interested in
the plumbob idea for basically two reasons. The first one
is that one possible interpretation of the strange results is
that we live on the inner part of a hollow planet like the
theory presented by Cyrus Teed in his book on cellular
cosmology. I don't believe this idea for a second and it
seems to me that if a person were to sit down and list all the
reasons why this would be impossible, you could probably
come up with a myriad of reasons that disprove this idea.
Because of the knowledge of such strange results, I have
been in search of ways to justify that we live in the world we
have always been taught, in other words, we live on the
exterior of the planet plus the fact that we live in a universe
containing a minimum of 50 billion galaxies spread out over
humanly inconceivable distances. I know we can conceptualize
X billion light years in a mathematical sense, but this covers a
distance that is truly not within our scope to envision.
The second reason why I am so interested in the plumbob
experiment still is that although several others have perhaps
thought it was improbable to do, I have a faint hope that I
could prove that the earth is indeed hollow by some sort
of attempt to solve for everything else and still be able to
state that all the forces we have accounted for within the
earth are insufficient to explain the actions of the plumbobs.
If I could do that then perhaps one could state that this
might prove that the earth is hollow without needing to go
on an expedition to do so.
I know it's probably a very slim hope but if I could
come up with a strong enough claim using the standard
establishment approach and showing that this was an
insufficient explanation for the plumbobs, then we could
bring that much more pressure to bear on those who
declare that a belief that the world is hollow to be absurd
are wrong.
Of course, an expedition would be great but gathering the
resources and everything necessary for one is a tall order
and may take some time to bring to pass.

Scott,
It seems like there could be so many more experiments done at the plumbob
site to help determine the answer to many of these questions. Does anyone
know if the site is still functional, or has it long since been filled in or
abandoned? Might be worth looking into. It must have taken quite an effort
and expense to create this particular setup, and perhaps someone felt it was
worth preserving. Who knows? It might be in good enough condition to
restore it to a functional state with modest expense, or at least a nice
scientific grant. Might be worth checking out. Scott, what was the reason
for your paper and where was it presented? It sounds like a well thought out
approach to that specific consideration.
