Extract:
“Please find everything else, dear Sir/Madam, enclosed. Because of your self-description as a “magazine for
persons non-denominational, atheists, freethinkers, humanists, sceptics, and unbelievers of all sorts”, that heralds
reason, tolerance, emancipation and human rights and fights against despotic rule, clerical politics, nationalism and
the persecution of minorities and, according to the judgement of the “Junge Welt“ [Young World] (14.10.04)
exercises the “most reliable criticism of esoterics and clerical affectations”, we assume that the problems of the
suppression of scientific freedom in the field of theoretical physics uncovered by our documentation might be a
topic for your Magazine, particularly in view of the generally acclaimed fundamental importance of the theory for
our view of the world and as a supposed showpiece of our all-round education. Alone the long-lasting and
supposedly unnoticed violation of the basic right of scientific freedom should be enough to interest you. [...]
Since, surprisingly, almost all of the mentioned aspects of your work are directly relevant for our project, we
also assume that you will not become typically stiff with horror when you hear criticism of the holiest theory of
physics. We send you our work results with the request that you check the documents and, in the event of a positive
result of this examination, that you address the topic of the existence of a suppressed tradition of criticism in your
magazine and try to stimulate free public discussion. Since the “Junge Welt” singles out your magazine in particular
for its “criticism of esoterics and clerical affectations”, which is something that one rarely finds expressed in our
press landscape, the clearly esoteric conclusions from the special theory of relativity could attract your special
interest. For purposes of your journalistic work we grant you imprint rights at your discretion until December
2005.”

Extract:
“Please find everything else, dear Sir/Madam, enclosed. From your publishing house’s Internet site we see that
you stand up for moral courage, mental courage, open and widespread freedom of expression, tolerant dispute of
arguments, practiced liberalism and tolerance, and that the publishing-house program takes a keenly opinionated
and quarrelsome orientation. All these congenial principles belong to the preconditions desired by us as a
framework for discussion of the work results of our research project. Liberalism and freedom of expression and its
complete absence are also the main topics of our work, which is why we assume that the longstanding and
supposedly unnoticed suppression of scientific freedom in the field of theoretical physics might interested you.
Who organized the suppression? Whose interests does it serve? Which political and social authorities have failed
completely?
For this reason we are sending you the documents today with the request that you check whether the problems
uncovered by our documentation on suppression of this freedom in the field of theoretical physics might not be a
topic for your magazine, particularly in view of the generally acclaimed fundamental importance of the theory for
our view of the world and as a supposed showpiece of our all-round education.”
