It’s come to the point where when a scientist/inventor is called (or calls himself) a ‘heretic/maverick/crank/etc’ franklyn then naturally assumes that person must be ‘right’ or ‘onto something’.

But of course it ain’t necessarily so at all. Some ‘inventors’ do come up with crackpot ideas that demonstrably don’t work. And all invention/discovery benefits from scepticism/scrutiny, lest we just blindly accept any wild claim.

The videos perceived by franklyn as attempts to explain Eric Laithwaite’s claimed discovery are nothing of the sort: that rotating masses show counter-intuitive behaviour (that doesn’t ‘break’ any laws of physics) is well known to anyone who has played around with a toy gyroscope. An ‘antigravity device’ this does not constitute, of course.

Paranoid and conspiratorial minds like franklyn probably see great significance in the simple fact that nearly 20 years after Eric’s demise his ‘discovery’ still hasn’t made it into any significant propulsion system yet but the simpler explanation that it simply doesn’t work should not be dismissed out of hand.

York Dobyn’s interesting presentation does in my view also not support that Eric was onto something.
