[NewCandle] [Bulk] Re: EMDrive

[Colin Quinney]

Hi Keith,

I missed your NewCandle Email. I haven't yet figured out how to direct and 
they have been going to my bulk basket, so I'm a couple of days behind.

Short answer- no, but I should have requested the papers and now I'm kicking 
myself. I didn't expect to see the emdrive as main theme on New Scientist, 
nor specifically this week -one day after I brought up the subject. That was 
quite a coincidence. (although Nick might disagree with that assessment :)

I have however posted to Vo the address to request the experimental and 
theory papers. TheEmdrive at aol.com
