Chapter 9: The Thought Experiment
(1) A deceitful idea that exceeds the imagination of the public at large and therefore strikes everyone as being
impossible.
(2) One or more supplementary swindles, as a cover-up for the first swindle.
(3) Release of the protagonists from an obstructive sense of right and wrong and from a feeling of responsibility.
(4) A milieu of accomplices who are informed and can nevertheless keep their mouths shut for a longer period.
(5) Supervisory authorities that - contrary to their orders - can secure the swindle by means of non-control.
(6) A bringing-into-line of the press is normally not at all necessary, though it would naturally be a real triumph
for a scandal business. It is in this that the uniqueness and the outstanding long-term success of the relativity
catastrophe lies. It is usually enough that the forces deciding on the “taboos” and the “freedom of their press” are
persuaded of the tremendous benefits of the scandal business. Indeed, this “conviction” of the benefits of the
scandal business can even survive the uncovering of the scandal itself, as the interesting appraisal of Martin Walser
on the Siemens bribery money shows.
(7) The informing of the public about a scandal takes place due to processes and constellations that are
unforeseeable and cannot be planned.
(8) If the public has been informed, the decision to reappraise depends essentially on whether the public at large
- i.e. every citizen - immediately understands the uncovered swindle. In the scandals to which a comparison has
been drawn this was indeed the case. As for the relativity catastrophe, here there would appear to be a certain
advantage for the cheaters, due to the strangeness of the topic and to the subject of “theoretical physics”, which in
any case attempts to guard itself, by means of priestly affectations and claims of absolute authority, against any
form of external social control.

Single Letters, Identically Worded Letters,
“Open Letters” and Enquiries
The following postal dispatch list needs little explanation. The circle of addressees has already been identified
(see above, p. 4). All we want to do here is to present it again with its own self-characterization, whose slightly
sarcastic impression was not invented by us:
Representatives of the people obligated only to their conscience
Party committees in the parliament committed only to the party interests
Federal and state government authorities founded on the German Constitution
Autonomous academies of sciences
Ethical “lighthouses” of journalism
Investigative investigators of journalism
Scientific geniuses
The most intelligent, upright and creative intellectuals
Decisive personalities in public life
Since 2006 our partners Friebe and Lopez have passed on our dispatches to the addressees by subsequent
enquiries per e-mail or by yellow post and have thereby achieved the successes described, so important for our
cause. Our partners have thereby integrated themselves in that research project and in that thought experiment. For
this reason these activities of our partners must also be included in the project’s sending list.
The physics dissidents in the widest sense of the term form a group of their own with publications or
contributions in the Internet. We have notified some of them about our project and invited them to participate in the
discussion on the catastrophe of the century of criticism of the theory in theoretical physics. This relatively small
group does not, however, belong to the addressees of our thought experiment, since with their critical comments
they belong to the victims of the relativity catastrophe and no longer need any clarification.
The libraries form a group of their own with specific criteria for their reactions to the gift dispatches.
