Slack is private for public communities – one would just have to register.
Here is how I would do it:

Using the Slack is probably the solution here.

Hey Breakable, any progress on this? Otherwise, I don’t think it is bad to use geo-ip to send out an email to everyone so they have the option of subscribing to [their area]-mailing-list.

Also, I’m looking into using this data to create easy to use models of very well known cosmology features:
http://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/science/Voyager_Science_Data.html

I wonder how many others have done so.

You know what would really help plasma cosmology? If every time some new information came out like this, some plasma physicist talked about how it fits into their model – just like big bangers do… It isn’t good science or bad science – it is being social. It’s how ideas spread.

So I posted this about a week ago… If there’s a mountain of evidence anywhere for this stuff, then I think is should be demonstrable via this forum, right?

[opensource]

I would mostly like to make sure that everyone who visits this site who live in/near [the meetup of interest] hears about that meetup. I don’t think Facebook is a cost effective way of getting the right people word that this is happening. However, focusfusion.org is (probably the best), along with its sister sites like the plasma physics wiki.

[opensource]

So if I create a meetup in SF through meetup.com – how will you help promote it?

[opensource]

Eric, it seems you’ve been keeping up with various news since you released your book way back when… Would you considered writing an update addressing a long list of new observations we’ve made since? I liked your 2007 Year End update you posted on your personal website – something of at least that length would be a good read for myself and I’m sure many others.

Thanks!

I sat in there for a few months and it was too dead. I think we need some bi-monthly meet-ups per region.

Breakable, maybe you could help setup a part of the website where those interested could join a regional group (I thought about searching by profile, but most people haven’t filled out where they live). For example, if we could have a “researchers in [San Francisco]” view, I would volunteer to lead it and organize a bi-monthly meet-up in San Francisco. This would link to meetup.com, but would be promoted through focusfusion.org. The lack of communication (mostly due to the specialization of this subject and how common it is in academia) really stifles iterating on progress (startups are a great example if you’ve ever worked for one, if you haven’t checkout LEAN, agile, scrum, etc).

I think this should be promoted on the front page of this web site for a while.
Hopefully those with more status here will chime in…

.1% variance? Wow sounds like something one shouldn’t focus on to make important conclusions. There is a need for clarity here – people love making topics more complicated than they really are. For example, should we be able to:
1) calculate the surface area of the sun
2) take the most conservative estimate of currents we’ve measured near the sun
3) extrapolate an estimate that everyone is happy with showing how much electricity the sun could actually be receiving…?

These closely related theories – or hypotheses – could probably benefit by some good naming schemes so novices can distinguish them. Distinctness is part of marketing – and growing a scientific paradigm probably does require some marketing!

[opensource]

So much confusion generated in that thread! Shouldn’t it be reasonably easy to tell from our neutrino data whether or not their production on the sun correlate with sunspot cycles?!

[opensource]

Since plasma cosmology is often lumped in with electric universe theoretics by critics, then I think it would be beneficial for plasma cosmologists to write an official account of how they see plasma cosmology dictating the functionality of the sun and “electricity in the universe.”

Chat has been up for a while – just us geeks in there… No bonafide plasma physicists yet!

[opensource]

Hey guys, come check out my IRC channel. I think it is a good place to start getting people together for an always-on chat session!

You need an IRC client in order to do this – Pidgin (pidgin.im) can suffice if you don’t already have one.
Once you connect to Freenode (irc.freenode.net), then you must join my channel, which is literally: ##dpf
In order to do this you may, for example, type: /join ##dpf

I’ll try to always be in there!
