I mentioned the book back 3 or 4 months ago, and had purchased McCarthy's
fictional works at the same time, like Bloom, and Wellstone. So it did surface,
so to speak. Why was it not picked up before? My guess is that the social
dynamics of this list, this group. Cliquety Clack! I am not sure his wellstone
matter is all that workable from a materials science point of view. We shall see.

<<Interesting that it's taken two months or more for a reference to this
incredibly cool and spikish idea to surface on this list. (I'd read and
reviewed his novel THE COLLAPSIUM in which wellstone was introduced as an
sf gadget, but had no idea he was putting it forward seriously, let alone
that he'd *patented* it.)
Might be worth noting that Wil is also an enthusiast for Haisch, Rueda and
Puthoff's zero point field mechanics.
