Oh, I didn't get what you guys were referring to until now. Sorry, my mind is
not quite fine tuned to look at things in that way yet. Thanks.

Members,
We have a poll open which asks about the possibility of gravity being caused
by an electrostatic charge. Mr. Cater feels that gravity is caused by a
charge: " Gravity effects are produced by a highly penetrating radiation in
the electromagnetic spectrum. The frequency range is located between the
lower portion of the infrared and the radar band.: ( Pages 14 - 15 of The
Awesome Life Force )
Mr. Cater gives an example from everyday life which exemplifies the
characterisitcs of gravity as a negative charge. The idea is that objects
which defy gravity, such as gyros and spinning tops, are imbued with a
negative charge and are actually being repulsed by the negative charge of
gravitational fields and " lifted up."

From pages 292 - 293 of The Awesome Life Force, by Joseph H. Cater:
" The Searl effect is deeply involved with the behavior of everything that
spins on an axis. Consider the spinning top or gyro. Conventional science
has never come up with anything even remotely resembling an explanation
concerning its behavior. Physicists try to create the iilusion that they
understand it and camouflage their ignorance with nebulous descriptions of
its action accompanied by meaningless equations. A precessing gyro actually
confutes the basic foundations of conventional physics. For example, as it
precesses, its center of mass extends well beyond its point of contact with
the surface. It should tip over according to all the rules of academic
physics. What force prevents it? Also the moment of inerta in-creases with
the RPM, a property which is utilized for stabilizers. Also, according to
the ' laws ' of orthodox physics, the moment of inertia is constant.
The explanation becomes almost self-evident in the light of the principles
already expounded upon. AT A CRITICAL RPM, THE OUTER RIM BECOMES HEAVILY
CHARGED NEGATIVELY, WHICLE THE PORTION CLOSER TO THE CENTER OF MASS BEGINS
TO TAK ON A POSITIVE CHARGE. THE RIM TENDS TO BE REPELLED UPWARDS BY THE
EARTH'S GRAVITY. The total effect is a counterclockwise motion about the
point of contact, which counterbalances the clockwise torque tending to tip
it over.
The greater tendency for a rotating body to maintain its plane of rotation,
which produces a stabilizing effect, is a result of the increase in the
moment of inertia. The outer portion is given a total negative charge which
is greater than that of its original positive when it was at rest. This
means that the mass comprising the outer portion has a greater overall
inertia than it had before. This portion of greatly increased inertia is
also further removed from the center of mass than the rest of the body which
accentuates the moment of inertia and also the portion closer to the center
of mass or rotation has a higher net positive charge than it had before.
This means that its inertial properties have also increased which also adds
to the moment of inertia.
