Chapter 9: The Thought Experiment
The Approach of the GOM Project in the Internet
More detailed data on the persons, home pages, blogs and Internet forums mentioned in this section can be
found in the subsequent lists and overviews, to which reference is hereby made.
On 13th December 2003, almost exactly two years after the commencement of the distribution of the
documentation to selected addressees, the research project also began to send the GOM documentation on CD-
ROM to three operators of Internet sites critical of physics and especially of the theories of relativity, with the
request for presentation of the documentation on their home pages.
On 17th December 2003 the project was already able to verify that, as the first to respond - and with
completely surprising speed - Mr. Ekkehard Friebe (Munich) had already presented the PDF files of the documentation
(Text Version 1.1) sent to him on CD-ROM by us on his home page, offered for free download. At the same time he
personally presented the documentation to forums for discussion:
on 9th February 2004 in the INTERDIS forum (p. 180)
on 6th October 2004 in the IZF forum (p. 181)
With this fast and positive reaction to an anonymous offer Mr. Friebe gave our project a strong stimulus. He was
also the first to realize that our project with the documentation provided a groundwork only, which would have to
be built on with the investment of further efforts directed at informing the public. Mr. Friebe has extended his home
page to a portal in which he offers his own work and the work of others for download, and in which he documents
and further develops his partnership with the GOM project.

In November 2005, moreover, Mr. Friebe also opened a forum of his own (see below).
On 23rd January 2004 Ms. Gertrude Walton (Winchester, UK) initially offered the entire documentation
(Text Version 1.1) on her home page “Sapere aude” for download, later offering individual chapters.

On 21st June 2004 Prof. Umberto Bartocci (Perugia) also presented the documentation (Text Version 1.1),
along with our English-language covering letter, under the then address:

(pp 192-194, with newer addresses)
We have expressed our thanks to these three home-page operators and have ensured them that we will also keep
them informed as to our future publications. They have also subsequently offered the new Text Version 1.2 and, of
course, the introduction in the English language (2006), but also several of the German-language publications. This
marked the start of an active cooperation that has continued up to the present day. Mr. Friebe, together with Ms.
Jocelyne Lopez, has even intensified his energetic support for our project, resulting in the declaration of their
partnership.
On 28th June 2005 Ms. Jocelyne Lopez (Hamburg) presented on her home page:
“Erzählungen mit Jocelyne Lopez / Märchenhaftes”
ein Thema aus der interdisziplinären INTERDIS-AKADEMIE:
“Wer ist G. O. Mueller?”
[“Stories with Jocelyne Lopez / Fairytales” a topic taken from the interdisciplinary INTERDIS
ACADEMY: “Who is G. O. Mueller?”]
with extracts from the GOM documentation and the project’s 2nd progress report. Since then she has
continuously reported on the development of the GOM project, with permanent links to Mr. Friebe’s home page
