Keely
"As far as my [Keely] researches have gone, I find that there is but one condition approaching reliability, and that is in computing the intermittent periodic disturbances along a nodal vibratory transmitter the nodes of gold, silver and platina a fixed number placed at such different distances along its line, as to take up and equalize (by a certain order of vibratory transmissions) the chord masses of the nodal interferences between the triple metals of which the nodes are composed, and also the acoustic introductory impulse of whatever chord is set. This will determine the rate of their accelerated molecular oscillation, so induced beyond their normal standard, and give us some definite figures in the computing of vibration, thousands of billions of times more than those of light.

"The earth's rotation is caused and continued by the action of the POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE SYMPATHETIC CELESTIAL STREAMS." He proved this by the action of the metal sphere mentioned elsewhere. "It's motion is governed to the utmost mathematical nicety, free from intermittent impulses, by the mobility of the earth's oceans and the oceans' "anastomosis". Herein is the elephant mentioned in the fable, on which the tortoise stands."

"The fixed neutral center of the earth, being the concentration of all the molecular neutral centers in its mass, is the unit of the Universe held in suspension through its own properties. We cannot say "This is what the elephant stands on" but we can say "This is the power by which the elephant is suspended."

"The earth's rotation excites and disturbs the equilibrium of the three sympathetic streams, of which the material manifestations are the three forms of electricity. The alternate light and darkness assists in preserving their activity through disturbance of equilibrium, with consequent "dissimilation" (radiation) and "assimilation" (absorption). The dark zone, following the light zone, holds the fluctuations of the polar power constant. This is the tortoise mentioned in the fable, upon which the world rests."
