I hear what you are saying, as they say, but we are not talking about the work of one individual here. Rather, we are looking at a broad sweep of ideas that enjoy growing interest, and many of them would seem to have a reasonable basis in sound [plasma] physics.

The trouble is, it is one thing to acknowledge the work of pioneers like Alfven, Langmuir, and Birkeland, and quite another to recognise the potential cosmological implications, especially when so many these are lacking in OOM.

There is obviously so much more to find out about what is going on out there, and the electrodynamic ideas may have some merit. I think that so many observations are down to interpretation, and herein lies the main problem, I think.

Dr Charles Bruce looked to the heavens and recognised phenomena that screamed EM. He was an astronomer and an expert in high voltage engineering. The 'mainstream', on the other hand, see gravitational stuff happening.

Do we really believe what we see ... or see what we believe?
