Well, Mr Jxxx has asked me about rockslams and from my
experience building emeters at Delta Meter in LA while on
Mission from the Sea organization.
The Rockslam as described by Hubbard, could, (as I told Pxxxxxx some
time ago) be created, by an intermittent in line with the cans.
I suggested that with slight pressure on the plug, it wouls be
possible to create a 'rockslam'. I based this on my understanding of
electronics.
Well the mighty Jxxx put me on the spot today, and said,
OK, make it rockslam...
And It did.
I suggest that the Phatman, having failed physics and gotten a D
incalculus, was not gifted with certain abilities availble to
others. I suggest that the rockslam as described by hubbard
was just a corroded emeter plug.
So much for all those evil purps....
