Wow, you really think the mods are going to care that you got “insulted” because you’re posting junk science from a non-credentialed, non-expert and people called you out on it? Get a grip!

Anyway, let’s review those “credentials”:

“I trained at the Governments Microwave Warfare establishment in 60’s.” - No government agency by this name appears to exist in any verifiable form. The only references to anything by that name come from Trower himself.

“In the 70’s I helped de-brief spies trained in microwave warfare.” - No real citation offered for this, so there is no way to verify it.

“My first degree is in Physics” - Seems to be telling the truth about this, but doesn’t specify the institution so not really verifiable.

“My second degree is a research degree.” - Research degree in what exactly, and from where? Trower doesn’t say, so there is no way to verify.

“I have a teaching diploma in human physiology.” - Again, no insitution specified, so not really verifiable. As he is a high school level teacher, I think we’d have to assume that this was a diploma to qualify him to teach high school-level physiology, which doesn’t qualify one as any kind of expert on biology, physiology or medicine.

“I teach advanced physics and mathematics at South Dartmoor College.” - “South Dartmoor College” is not a university, but a middle school/high school. So he is not teaching “advanced physics”, because they do not teach “advanced physics” in high schools or middle schools. I think we can safely say he is being purposefully deceptive here.

“Author of the Tetra Report for the Police Federation.” - The “Police Federation” is not a scientific journal, so this isn’t really a credential worth mentioning, but I guess it’s all he has got. Surely if he had ever authored a peer-reviewed paper, he would mention that instead, no?

If you think that people around here are going to be impressed by that list of “qualifications”, I think you are going to be sorely disappointed.

“Some posters at FR are not just posters, they work for an agenda ... an agenda converse to Freerepublic.”

Are you talking about yourself here? Posting junk science and attacking people who question it (and calling in the mods to try to suppress such questions) might make this site look pretty bad.

For anyone who is brave enough to step past the arrogant, self-aggrandizing negative naybobbery, here is part one of a two part presentation Barrie Trower gave at an international conference in 2012: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xgJmeQaQmc
