Dr. Douglas A. White writes: Enclosed is an article about phase-waves and their growing impact on our civilization. We may need to develop a whole special field of physics to deal with the possibilities of phase-wave media and their interface with matter-wave technologies. But we are definitely moving into a "faster-than-light" mode of existence, though it is not quite what the either the sci-fi or the establishment people imagined.
An extract: "...The 20th century soon turned into a progressive meltdown of the old way of experiencing the world. We could no longer treat the world as a bunch of matter bumping and banging around. The old matter philosophy was anchored in a physical body, and support for that view was conveniently provided by battles and struggles, lots of hard work, physical oppression, and so on. Heavy resistance was the game. Power meant you had lots of weapons and could "force" things to be the way you wanted them to be. The gigantic world wars of the 20th century were the death throes of the matter-dominated view of the world. Quite a lot of that is still around, but things are changing fast.
In his special theory of relativity Einstein declared a major challenge to the scientific world. He claimed that the speed of light is a constant: (c) = 3x10^8 m/s. No matter-wave packet can go faster than (c). Then he showed that matter was essentially the same as energy by the relation E = Mo c^2, where Mo is the rest mass of a particle. This causes a rather depressing situation. We find ourselves trapped here on a tiny planet looking out with our telescopes at a huge universe. However, we are imprisoned in our little bodies made of matter and subject to a speed limit that keeps us here with a bunch of loose cannons who want to use E = Mo c^2 to blow us all up. There's also another group of hedonists who want to use up all the global resources as fast as they can and foul the environment irrecoverably while they are at it in a kind of race to extinction. How many species can we thoughtlessly wipe out without wiping ourselves out too as a side effect? The nearest star system with a habitable backup planet is way out of our range. And it may be occupied already by creatures that would rather not be inundated with refugees. Furthermore, the speed limit declared by Einstein has been confirmed by many precise experiments from Michelson-Morley on down to today, so we really have to believe it, -- right?..."
