Let’s Work Together
Since the creation of this website two years ago, we have received many hundreds
of emails from individuals inspired by the explorations in these pages. Many of
those writing us have expressed their eagerness to participate in some way. Due
to limited managerial resources, we’ve been unable to respond to such offers at
the level we would prefer.
With this page, we hope to begin the process of expanding our cooperative work.
Some of the lines of cooperation will have to be developed quite carefully,
while others will grow organically through the enthusiasm and skills of
contributors. We will welcome thoughtful suggestions as we work to develop
protocols for collaboration and voluntary contributions.
Here are a few of the opportunities either underway or in development:
Thunderbolts Picture of the Day (TPOD)
This feature has been active for just over 2 years and has been the backbone of
our Internet presence. It is the primary reason that there are over 15,000
citations of Thunderbolts.info on the Internet. Most of the TPODs are a
collaborative effort, and there is room for broader collaboration in the future.
A simple note to us on a possible subject, backed by a simple set of facts
ascertained from credible sources, can be the beginning of a role for you in
this ongoing feature.
News and Views
This recently activated page should grow considerably in coming months. Readers
are invited to contribute opinions and submit stories from other sources. Also
we will be pleased to receive comments on recent Thunderbolts features (TPODs or
News and Views pages). As appropriate, comments will be published.
Scholarly and Scientific Liaison
As our Internet presence expands, so will the opportunity to reach independent
minded and accredited researchers. Readers who now have a good sense of the
“Electric Universe” hypothesis can be helpful in directing the attention of
others to the site. Your active liaison on our behalf will create new
possibilities greater than any of us could achieve on our own.
In your communications, please be sure that, unless you have developed specific
strategies with Thunderbolts management, you not identify yourself as a member
of the Thunderbolts group, but as a curious or interested observer. And please
forward to us any responses your communications generate.
Media Communications
The editors of scientific media will certainly pay more attention as our
influence spreads. Communications can also include the science editors of
regional newspapers, particularly those who may be looking for emerging
scientific controversies. More than once a reader’s simple note, directing an
editor or journalist to an “alternative explanation," has produced surprising
results.
Contact Us
Please let us know of your own interests. Give us your opinions or suggestions.
Productive long term relationships will require patience, but we need
collaborators who are eager to learn, to communicate with others, and to share
in world-altering discovery.
