Based upon my reading of Vassilatos' 'Vril Compendium'(s) and related works, in order to be complete, a Vril Theory must account for each of the following phenomena in a comprehensible and testable manner. I will continue to post the relevant experiements, video, source material, etc. I may supplement the list, but will keep this numbering:
VT1: Classical Electrodynamics (e.g. conduction, induction, capacitance, resistance, AC/DC power transmission, etc.)
VT2: All the stuff left out of Classical Electrodynamic theory but clearly in the canon (e.g. Faraday's homoplanar generator)
VT3: One-wire transmission of power, in the absense of measurable electic or magnetic fields (e.g. Tesla's magnifying transmitter, Dollard's analog computer)
VT4: Radiant Energy phenomena (Moray, Tesla) including the evolution, transmission, and reception of (net) electrically and magnetically neutral species, and conversion to conventional EM (e.g. with laminated aerial metal plates)
VT5: Creation and absorbtion of photons (e.g. Reichenbach's OD experiements, Vassilatos' description of 'Black Radiance' around grounded iron)
VT6: Disruptive Discharge phenomena (Tesla's quenched spark gap, Gray and Lindemann's "Cold Electricity")
VT7: Evolution/dissipation of matter (e.g. Reich's "Cosmic Superimposition)
VT8: Wireless transmission of power (e.g. Tesla's magnifying transmitter, Meyl's solid state Tesla transmitter)
VT9: Torque effect in high voltage lines
VT10: Neural impulse transmission of photon energy
VT11: Nerve induction between parties over 1 wire
VT12: Transmission of images directly to mind (e.g. Eidetics)
VT13: Projection/absorbtion of vril/orgone/dor to cause atmospheric effects (e.g. Reich's cloudbuster, Trevor James Constable's etheric weather engineering)
VT14: Golden ration electric charge/discharge effects
VT15: Other ORAC effects (e.g. temperature differential effect, relationship to static discharge)
VT16: One wire and wireless longitudial magneto dielectric transmission in excess of C (Dollard, Tesla, Meyl)
VT17: Evolution of classical quanta

In addition, a complete Vril Theory should attempt to address these appendix phenomena:
VTA1: Bilocation, or at least the sense of 'being there'
VTA2: Transmission of regenerative energy along nervous system and between individuals
VTA3: Seeing through walls (gothic cathedrals) or grounded plates
VTA4: Biological detectors
VTA5: Radionics phenomena (influence at a distance, taking pictures of past/current/future forms)
VTA6: Ganzfeld phenoma and related image transmission phenoma (e.g. remote viewing)

I went ahead and started a facebook group called "Lost Science - Gerry Vassilatos" and have been posting imagery and links there.

I have recently finished re-reading Wilhelm Riech's _God, Ether, Devil & Cosmic Superimposition_. From a natural science standpoint, chapter 6 (Ether) of _God, Ether, Devil_ and the entirety of _Cosmic Superimposition_ are both worth reading. I am also digging through the ponderous _Character Analysis_ - including all sorts of Freudian dreams. Using Bing.com, I found this site (http://www.aquapulser.com/plasma/index.html) which claims to use some sort of custom high voltage technology related to Tesla's "distruptive discharge" and the Stanley Meyer water torch and is capable of generating Plasma balls in a standard automotive spark plug (spark cap). There are videos and they are awesome. I've been thinking about the multiple definitions of Ether (inert medium, electrically/magnetically neutral formative force, quasi-living substance beneath all matter) and the various manifestations of the term Plasma (as in living substance in a living body, quasi living substance in high vacuum tubes and space, and ecto-plasma or quasi living substance in the environment). Also, the phenomena of the various frequencies of DNA remaining for days after the DNA has been removed from a high vacuum. Also, the phenomena of an unfertilized chicken egg giving the same galvanic frequency response as the heartbeat of an actually forming chicken. Also, the concept from _Cosmic Superimposition_ of material form folllowing 'dual orgone superimposition' forms into wellknown organ shapes. Also, the concept that cells, plants, 'bions' seem to show intent in the absense of things like a nervous system. And of course, Reichenbach and Reich's observations of emanations (blue spiralling, cold flames, etc) in local space related to iron enclosures in contact with the ground. I sense that there is some unity to these phenomena.

Is plasma everywhere present? If so, are these observations then just a function of the local density? What is the relationship between iron grounding and plasma? What are the various species of plasma and do they interact in the manner of cosmic orgone energy as described by Reich? What is the relationship between plasma and dielectric fields? Reich seems to have been unaware of Crookes or Reichenbach or of (nascient) plasma science in his time. Are the white ray and black ray (Vril Compendium 1) the cosmic neutrino flux (solar) and earth-reservoired vril/plasma, respectively?

I am starting to get more consistent reactions when touching grounded iron rods now. Last week outside of the office, the facilities people had tapped an iron rod into the ground with a little ring on top - part of a gate I think - and I touched it for just a moment. It's a bit hard to describe the sensation, but 'thrilling current' comes pretty close. Almost as if the pulse in my hand were to be filling a space 1.5 times the size of my 'meat' hand. In any case, I am intrigued as this is a sensation that I would have had no basis for predicting outside of Vassilatos' accounts.

I just finished a 2003 reprinting of Peter Thompkins _The Secret Life of Plants_. Clearly much of the research work at Borderlands in general and in Gerry Vassilatos' books in particular intersects heavily with this work. Amoung other things, Thompkins gives treatment to the electronic+plant sensors of L. George Lawrence, touches on Wilhelm Reich and Rudolf Steiner, and has one of the better chapters on Radionics I've read so far including an overview of Abrams, Drown, Hieronymous, and De La Warr. Since the book is more of a survey of the field than anything else, the bibliography is the most interesting part. If anything, I'm disapponted the book hasn't been updated since 1973. There is plenty more in this book concerning electric-like/magnetic-like/plasma-like species of light/energy with profound interactions with biological systems, but again with no solid theoretical underpinnings - only phenomenology.

I have recently finished _Secrets of Antigravity Propulsion_ by Paul Laviolette. Here he chronicles the work of Thomas Townsend Brown and further developments along that line of research within the US aerospace industry. He puts forth plenty of experimental results, many of which were new to me, and a theoretical explanation using 'Subquantum Mechanics'. He quotes heavily from Vassilatos concerning Telsa's work with highly non-linear 'disruptive discharge' experiments and claims that the combination of high-K dielectrics, non-linear pulses, and non-linear electrical field shapes are all prerequisites for successful results. While I certainly think this work is interested, I'll leave the megavolt experiments to others. Interestingly, he also brings up Faraday's Homoplanar generator which plays an important theoretical role in Meyl's work.

Also, I just finished up _New Worlds Beyond the Atom_ by Langston Day and George De La Warr. Following the line of Ruth Drown's work, De La Warr devised a set of radionic instruments which were capable of making diagnosis, treatment, and photographs of internal organs (and thought-forms) through a combination of radionic tuning (below), operator mental focusing, a static magnetic field (described as a double vortex lying along a particular orientation), and some sort of specimen linked to the subject (blood sample, photograph, etc.). In spite of the complete absense of a workable theory, the photographs are enough to give one serious pause. There is a real phenomena here worthy of further emperical exploration. The various radionic tuners I have come across so far appear to be simply a set of 10+ adjustable capacitors or resistors (rheostats) with one end of each connected to a common metal plate. Although these instruments contain electrical components, their operation is clearly non-electrical in nature. I have another high level overview on radionics coming in a few days, and hopefully that will have some more schematics to look over.

I have begun considering the notion of treating 'current' as as a 'magnetic current vortex' (MCV) embedded within a metal body and 'potential' as a balanced 'dielectric potential vortex' in the space around a metal body and reinterpreting the body of electric/magnetic/etc. phenomena in this context. More on that as the theory progresses.

In other news, I found this patent 'Electic Compass' by Pedro Fodor, US Patent 6,230,415 B1(http://www.google.com/patents?id=DJUHAAAAEBAJ&pg=PA1&lpg=PA1&dq=United+States+Patent+6230415&source=bl&ots=Uy03iEiuDW&sig=nMR4seK5WhQ20rJF6wDjBNStw5A&hl=en&ei=JecdSvrkD-DcmQeevaC6Bg&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=6#PPA1,M1). Note the similarities between this patent and Gerry Vassilatos' description of a human compass as a diamond shaped piece of aluminum foil on a pin. Next question, how do I buy one of these things?

A couple more thoughts:

1) Meaning of the orgone icon (left):

Think of the neutrino flux as primary and capable of generating the matter/anti-matter electron/positron pair. I would say the icon is a pretty good rune for describing this function.

2) Accelerated radioactivity decay through neutrino bombardment:

a. Le Bon and Tesla both believed that radioactive emissions (alpha, beta, gamma rays) are the result of bombardment of the so-called radioactive substance (uranium for instance) by 'cosmic rays' as a function of the extreme density of substances like uranium. Le Bon, and Vassilatos, were both able to detect radioactive emissions from 'normal' metals like aluminum under concentrated sunlight. Further, Le Bon was able to demonstrate that under such bombardment, the half-life of his radioactive samples was definitely not a constant.

b. I recall an experiment described by Bill Beaty at the Keelynet Convergence back in 2001 in which he described abbreviating the half-life of radioactive substances through the use of an arc welder. Think of the arc weld as a (non-quenched) disruptive discharge, capable of interacting with the neutrino flux at sufficient voltage (I have seen 511-512kV from multiple sources).

c. Consider Wilhelm Reich's Oranur experiment in which he placed a small amout of radioactive substance in an orgone accumulator. As a result, everyone in the facility became very sick - as if being assaulted by radioactive emissions at a prodigious rate - and the site had to be abandoned for some weeks-months. When they returned, the formerly radioactive sample was completely emission free.

3) Speculated capacity of concentrated neutrino flux to also absorb light:

a. If a set of neutrinos could find expression alternately as electron(s) and positron(s) thus co-anihilating as a photon emission, is it not reasonable to suppose also that a photon could be captured by the neutrino flux, pulled apart into an electron and positron, and reconfigured into a neutrino again. At a later date, I will have to work through the math (quanta reactions, energetic emissions, etc.).

b. If this were the case, then Gerry Vassilatos' description of the vril as an organically growing (like a grape vine) radiant blackness remains compatable with the vril as neutrino flux thesis.

c. I have read (and need citation) a number of experiments with differential orgone accumulators (e.g. take a cardboard tube and wrap it with alternating layers of foil and wax paper with progressively more layers at one end than the other --> accumulation of blackness in space over time),

d. I met a man a few years ago at a Dan Winter workshop who reported actually seeing black vortices around himself.

e. There is much discussion in the T.T. Brown chapter of _Lost Science_ concerning arc welds and the generation of black 'spaces' that are capable of de-inertialising and absorbing matter. I'm still looking for a first-hand source on that one.
