things aren't always 'what they seem' though....and there is obviously a campaign on the go
to discredit The Keshe Foundation.
We could look at your links two ways.....the first...that they are legit and filled with honest people.
The second that they are filled with dishonest people who are trying to discredit Keshe because he
poses a threat. Financially and politically.
The ATS link isn't too bad....the others are just your usual evangelical-sceptic cum paid disinformation-agent trash, IMO
Hiya again bee. I think that you may be misinterpreting my intention.
When someone makes extraordinary claims my rule of thumb is to apply a higher standard of scrutiny. The first part of that scrutiny involves looking for already revealed points of concern, inconsistencies, factual errors, and any other red flags. That was where those links came from. I took another look through those links this morning to see if there was anything of real substance and honestly there really wasn't much; just a bunch of naysayers for the most part.
I really want to give him the benefit of the doubt, but initially it looked a heck of a lot like he was out to scam people; and for significant amounts of money. Surely that is something that would be of concern, right? It has nothing to do with illegitimately discrediting The Keshe Foundation and everything to do with identifying whether it is all just a big scam.
So I watched his videos on
youtube, looked over his website(s), read
one of his papers, watched a 45 minute long google video (
here), and looked into a few more references that I could find (
example).
The end result so far... I'm not quite sure what to make of his claims at this point. Most of it seems far fetched, but I suppose that would be expected if he truly has made a
new discovery of some kind. The biggest concern I still have is his apparent lack of follow-through and actual demonstration of the technologies.
He talks it up really well, has some interesting videos that sound compelling to a layman, some papers that look compelling to a layman, promises groundbreaking achievements and benefits, seems like an honest guy when you watch him speak or listen to him, but never seems to actually deliver. Perhaps I'm not trusting enough, but this set of characteristics is part and parcel for hucksters and scammers.
I want to believe. I really do. Actually, you have no idea how much I want him to be legit but I seriously do. The problem I have with that though... is that he hasn't delivered as promised.

re underlined...
they will prove it when they get the chance, I suppose...without hindrance....
Perhaps the Keshe Foundation will manage to push through the barriers set up
by the status quo...to protect the status quo.

Well, I look forward to such proof if it is forthcoming. By all means if he can deliver everything he claims to be able to deliver with this technology and new information it would be of great benefit to the world and all of humanity. Even if it turns out that he is only creating graphene cheaply and easily (as is indicated
here and on his website) with these experiments it would prove of benefit. Some links about graphene:

Graphene has unusual properties, which makes it the material of choice for a number of emerging pieces of technology. Thanks to its honeycombed structure, it has astounding stability and is so far the most rigid material on earth. Its also conductive and almost transparent.
So far the biggest obstacles to using graphene (and its sibling materials like the carbon nanotubes, which is basically a sheet of graphene folded into a tube) are their astounding cost, as well as the lack of technology to produce wafers with a big area. The largest wafer yet created is 75cm across.
Graphene has found mention in several threads here as well.

And many other threads which you are well aware of it would seem...

it's his laboratory...he can invite who he wants to it.
Fair enough I suppose.

aaaahhhhh the *sigh* game.....
deaf ears....I could say the same about you
you have a good weekend too.....

*sigh*
I'm still concerned about his no-show as a speaker for the
Space, Propulsion & Energy Sciences International Forum (SPESIF- 2010) at Johns Hopkins - Applied Physics Laboratory (Feb. 23-25, 2010).
And on his
(old?) website he still has a section devoted to a planned series of events called
Bright lights in the sky.

Unless I'm mistaken... these never took place. Do you happen to know if they did bee?
He also has plans for moon missions outlined there. Nice little
pdf.
Book Now! it suggests... and you can fly to the moon in his space ship which he has named Mojhans.
I sure hope he has some more technical plans for that ship than this.
At the very least he has piqued my curiosity. I'll continue looking into this.
Cheers.
