His spatial relativity theory involves the String Theory, the Big Bang theory, quotes from Albert Einstein and something Boyd calls the "elemental particle." It is, he contends, the smallest possible piece of physical matter in the physical universe.

He claims that if he could break down space into these basic particles, they could be used for electricity.

Okie-dokey. How much energy would it take to break "space" down into the "elemental particle"? Or are we just blathering?

"This isn't like the String Theory; that's philosophy,"

Philosophy? I always thought it was more like a religion.

>Boyd has invented a type of three-player ping pong . . .

This is good, because
I didn't have enough things
to dream of doing

with both Anna and
Maria. Now I can add
this menage a pong . . .

Maybe we could get world leaders to play and the losers have to resign from the UN.

invented a type of three-player ping pong, he's come up with a special relativity theory and even made a remote control flying toy

But wait thats not all you also get these ginsu knives.

Inventor creates ping pong for three
by Karin Stanton
Pioneer Times Journal
His spatial relativity theory involves the String Theory, the Big Bang theory, quotes from Albert Einstein and something Boyd calls the "elemental particle." It is, he contends, the smallest possible piece of physical matter in the physical universe.

Now, he just needs to prove his theory.

"It‘s an equilateral tetrahedron and it‘s really all about shape," he said. "This isn‘t like the String Theory; that‘s philosophy," he said. "You cannot divide physical matter to infinity. You just cannot. Otherwise you don‘t have an assembly process."

Five elemental particles combine to form one electron, Boyd said.

Boyd is seeking investors to build a prototype spatial energy converter to test his theory, which he said could have energy, medical and military-industrial applications.

"This should be easy to disprove," he said, "But if we are correct, we‘ve revolutionized physics and the electric grid as we know it won‘t be needed anymore."
At the very least, good for a chuckle.

Ping Pong for three gives me a pang. In my eleventh dimension.
