Chapter 9: <strong>The</strong> Thought Experiment<br />
hardened criminals, admitting only to that which can already be proved against them. Only when they have lost<br />
everything, the new top management initiates the about-turn and demands the most “brutal-as-possible” clarification<br />
in what has already become all too well-known. For the relativity catastrophe our research project has planned<br />
ahead for the future and has already collected and presented the “testimonies <strong>of</strong> the witnesses” in the documentation.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y have already “spilt the beans”.<br />
Findings 1 - 4 also apply to the relativity catastrophe. As to the relevance <strong>of</strong> the fifth finding, this cannot as yet<br />
be judged, because the uncovering <strong>of</strong> the relativity catastrophe in the public first has to take place. From<br />
experience, however, it is probable that the powers that be in the field <strong>of</strong> relativity, like the small children, will first<br />
have to be forced to relinquish their grand delusion, their loss <strong>of</strong> touch with reality and their absolute refusal to<br />
comply with the law.<br />

What does the poet want to tell us?<br />
One <strong>of</strong> the interesting comments on the typical national scandals can be seen in the mysterious remark made by<br />
the President <strong>of</strong> the Federal Office for Radiation Protection on Asse, i.e. from someone who knows what he is<br />
speaking about (which is seldom the case!): “If we cannot win back our credibility, we will never solve the problem<br />
in a democratic manner” (see above, p. 28; TS, 7.7.08). That’s where the language teacher starts to reflect: “What<br />
does the poet want to tell us?”<br />
When a final disposal site for our radioactive treasures cannot be agreed on by democratic and constitutional<br />
means because nobody wants this (“never”), then we will one day wake up in Germany to find that the German<br />
armed forces and the police have occupied all important public facilities, and an emergency committee will<br />
announce its decisions via all <strong>of</strong> the media. <strong>The</strong> nuclear waste begins to get the upper hand. It must be dumped in a<br />
final disposal site as deep as possible under the earth, and the population in the region <strong>of</strong> the final disposal site must<br />
be evacuated because, in the longer term, everything that is buried can come up again in the groundwater. <strong>The</strong> final<br />
disposal site must <strong>of</strong> course be set up at an appropriate distance from the decisive personalities in Hamburg,<br />
Frankfurt and Munich, which is why the decision has been made in favour <strong>of</strong> X-town, Y-mountain or Z-borough in<br />
the eastern states. In this area the population has already been driven <strong>of</strong>f by the breakdown <strong>of</strong> society, and the<br />
remaining population will be evacuated to the other federal states, initially in transit camps. Martial law has been<br />
imposed. All basic rights have been revoked until further notice, night-time curfews will prevent all activities <strong>of</strong> the<br />
population against the necessary nuclear transports and evacuations. <strong>The</strong> local commanders will announce everything<br />
else via notice posters and the media. Peaceful conduct is the first civic duty. <strong>The</strong> problem would be solved by nondemocratic<br />
means. <strong>The</strong> atomic state would be there.<br />
In contrast to the atomic state, the relativity state is long since reality. It too solves one problem, namely that <strong>of</strong><br />
concealing the obvious collapse <strong>of</strong> the special theory <strong>of</strong> relativity from the public, by non-democratic means via the<br />
abolition <strong>of</strong> scientific freedom. <strong>The</strong> criticism and its authors should vanish in a “final disposal site” for denial and<br />
defamation.<br />
<strong>The</strong> relativity state was proclaimed in 1922 in Leipzig, on Monday, 18th September, at the centenary <strong>of</strong> the<br />
scientists (Society <strong>of</strong> German Scientists and Doctors) in Leipzig. In the hall the “Chancellor <strong>of</strong> Physics” announced<br />
to those present that they were free researchers, whereas the abnormal critics <strong>of</strong> the theories <strong>of</strong> relativity expelled<br />
could now only hand out a leaflet as public protest, the “Leaflet <strong>of</strong> the 19" signatories, including Nobel-Prize<br />
winners (cf. Chapter 3, pp 270-275).<br />
<strong>The</strong> parallels between the structures, one <strong>of</strong> them only feared and the other already established, are astonishing.<br />
Comparisons always yield results.<br />
<strong>The</strong> latest development (August 2008) <strong>of</strong> the Asse scandal is beginning to become a bit grotesque. <strong>The</strong><br />
radioactive brine discovered stem most certainly from the drums previously dumped there, which is why new and<br />
more stable drums are to be developed, these to last for some 500 years (!) and - this is the climax - the waste is to<br />
be collected from the depth <strong>of</strong> the “final disposal site” only to be dumped again in another “final disposal site”.<br />
Should one perhaps conceive the term “final disposal site” anew, as a sort <strong>of</strong> challenge trophy, so that in the course<br />
<strong>of</strong> time all <strong>of</strong> the German tribes can sooner or later have the honour?<br />
