A while back I was teasing Morein about getting some measurements wrong with
respect to a telescope. Actually the Hubble telescope. He denied that he
ever had done so or that he had ever had such a conversation on another
newsgroup. It was part of one his bull**** rants where he was claiming that
there is some meaning in the fact that sighted listening produces results
that are at variance with blind listening. Naturally, he was ripped to
shreds by the actual experts on rec.audio.pro.

You may discover more of what a boob he is by going he

http://groups.google.com/group/rec.audio.tech/browse_thread/thread/a09446e71cb1c654/ce02f0bf81e971cd?lnk=st&q=robert+morein+(telescope )+group:rec.audio.tech&rnum=1&hl=en#ce02f0bf81e971 cd

Note that he tries to tell Dick Pierce that Mr. Pierce is wrong.
BOB said:
"Dick, I didn't realize you're a member of the bull**** club as well.
The telescope mirror is 40 inches in diameter, and the Focault knife-edge
test would have easily detected the abberration in the assembled system."


Dick Said:
"Kind readers, witness Mr. Morein describing ME as a member of the
"bull**** club," when he a) quotes the mirror size quite incorrectly
(it's a 2.4 meter Ritchey-Chretien all-mirror system, that's 94 inches)
AND while he might be have passing familiarity with the term Focault
test, he is clearly unfamiliar with the fact that Focault knife-edge
testing was NOT used for figure verification"

If Morein can think that 40" is the same as 2.4 meters, then why
can't 4 microns be the same as 50 microns? That's the GOOD science
that Morein practices.


Of course, Moreain can't even describe the simplest of physical optics
correctly, for example:


[a] 100 watt lightbulb in a tin can, with a pinhole
creating an approximation of a parallel beam


A pinhole CANNOT, under ANY circumstances, create ANY approximation
of a parallel beam unless it is placed approximately an infinite
distance away. This sort of completely fundamental error doesn't
do a lot to lend any crdibility of his shrill cries about someone
else's "bad" science.


His "science" has 40 inches equaling 95 inches (2.4 meters), 4
microns equaling 50 microns, and pinhole light sources emitting
parallel rays. "

Mikey, I had the diameter of the telescope wrong.

However, Mr. Allison is incorrect about the use of the pinhole light source.
He states, "A pinhole CANNOT, under ANY circumstances, create ANY
approximation of a parallel beam unless it is placed approximately an
infinite distance away."

However, the Focault knife-edge test has been used as a method of examining
the figure of a mirror for hundreds of years. If the mirror is perfect, a
pinhole source placed at the focus of the mirror will cause a reflection in
the form of a parallel beam.

http://www.answers.com/topic/amateur-telescope-making

When I was a member of the Franklin Institute telescope builders' group, we
had a pinhole lightsource located approximately 60 feet from the mirror
mount of the optical bench. This enabled us to check the focal length of a
mirror with an approximation of a parallel beam. However, in order to check
the figure of a mirror, the pinhole source must be placed at the focal
point.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Doctoral student takes intellectual property case to Supreme Court
By L. STUART DITZEN
Philadelphia Inquirer

PHILADELPHIA -Even the professors who dismissed him from a doctoral program
at Drexel University agreed that Robert Morein was uncommonly smart.

They apparently didn't realize that he was uncommonly stubborn too - so much
so that he would mount a court fight all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court
to challenge his dismissal.

The Supremes have already rejected this appeal, btw.

"It's a personality trait I have - I'm a tenacious guy," said Morein, a
pleasantly eccentric man regarded by friends as an inventive genius. "And we
do come to a larger issue here."

An "inventive genius" that has never invented anything. And hardly
"pleasantly" eccentric.

A five-year legal battle between this unusual ex-student and one of
Philadelphia's premier educational institutions has gone largely unnoticed
by the media and the public.

Because no one gives a **** about a 50 year old loser.

But it has been the subject of much attention in academia.

Drexel says it dismissed Morein in 1995 because he failed, after eight
years, to complete a thesis required for a doctorate in electrical and
computer engineering.

Not to mention the 12 years it took him to get thru high school!
BWAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!


Morein, 50, of Dresher, Pa., contends that he was dismissed only after his
thesis adviser "appropriated" an innovative idea Morein had developed in a
rarefied area of thought called "estimation theory" and arranged to have it
patented.

A contention rejected by three courts. From a 50 YEAR OLD that has
done NOTHING PRODUCTIVE with his life.


In February 2000, Philadelphia Common Pleas Court Judge Esther R. Sylvester
ruled that Morein's adviser indeed had taken his idea.

An idea that was worth nothing, because it didn't work. Just like
Robert Morein, who has never worked a day in his life.


Sylvester held that Morein had been unjustly dismissed and she ordered
Drexel to reinstate him or refund his tuition.

Funnily enough, Drexel AGREED to reinstate Morein, who rejected the
offer because he knew he was and IS a failed loser. Spending daddy's
money to cover up his lack of productivity.

That brought roars of protest from the lions of academia. There is a long
tradition in America of noninterference by the courts in academic decisions.

Backed by every major university in Pennsylvania and organizations
representing thousands of others around the country, Drexel appealed to the
state Superior Court.

The appellate court, by a 2-1 vote, reversed Sylvester in June 2001 and
restored the status quo. Morein was, once again, out at Drexel. And the
time-honored axiom that courts ought to keep their noses out of academic
affairs was reasserted.

The state Supreme Court declined to review the case and, in an ordinary
litigation, that would have been the end of it.

But Morein, in a quixotic gesture that goes steeply against the odds, has
asked the highest court in the land to give him a hearing.

Daddy throws more money down the crapper.

His attorney, Faye Riva Cohen, said the Supreme Court appeal is important
even if it fails because it raises the issue of whether a university has a
right to lay claim to a student's ideas - or intellectual property - without
compensation.

"Any time you are in a Ph.D. program, you are a serf, you are a slave," said
Cohen. Morein "is concerned not only for himself. He feels that what
happened to him is pretty common."

It's called HIGHER EDUCATION, honey. The students aren't in charge,
the UNIVERSITY and PROFESSORS are.


Drexel's attorney, Neil J. Hamburg, called Morein's appeal - and his claim
that his idea was stolen - "preposterous."

"I will eat my shoe if the Supreme Court hears this case," declared Hamburg.
"We're not even going to file a response. He is a brilliant guy, but his
intelligence should be used for the advancement of society rather than
pursuing self-destructive litigation."

No **** sherlock.

The litigation began in 1997, when Morein sued Drexel claiming that a
committee of professors had dumped him after he accused his faculty adviser,
Paul Kalata, of appropriating his idea.

His concept was considered to have potential value for businesses in
minutely measuring the internal functions of machines, industrial processes
and electronic systems.

The field of "estimation theory" is one in which scientists attempt to
calculate what they cannot plainly observe, such as the inside workings of a
nuclear plant or a computer.

My estimation theory? There is NO brain at work inside the head of
Robert Morein, only sawdust.


Prior to Morein's dismissal, Drexel looked into his complaint against Kalata
and concluded that the associate professor had done nothing wrong. Kalata,
through a university lawyer, declined to comment.

At a nonjury trial before Sylvester in 1999, Morein testified that Kalata in
1990 had posed a technical problem for him to study for his thesis. It
related to estimation theory.

Kalata, who did not appear at the trial, said in a 1998 deposition that a
Cherry Hill company for which he was a paid consultant, K-Tron
International, had asked him to develop an alternate estimation method for
it. The company manufactures bulk material feeders and conveyors used in
industrial processes.

Morein testified that, after much study, he experienced "a flash of
inspiration" and came up with a novel mathematical concept to address the
problem Kalata had presented.

Without his knowledge, Morein said, Kalata shared the idea with K-Tron.

K-Tron then applied for a patent, listing Kalata and Morein as co-inventors.

Morein said he agreed "under duress" to the arrangement, but felt "locked
into a highly disadvantageous situation." As a result, he testified, he
became alienated from Kalata.

As events unfolded, Kalata signed over his interest in the patent to K-Tron.
The company never capitalized on the technology and eventually allowed the
patent to lapse. No one made any money from it.

Because it was bogus. Even Kalata was mortified that he was a victim
of this SCAMSTER, Robert Morein.

In 1991, Morein went to the head of Drexel's electrical engineering
department, accused Kalata of appropriating his intellectual property, and
asked for a new faculty adviser.

The staff at Drexel laughed wildly at the ignorance of Robert Morein.

He didn't get one. Instead, a committee of four professors, including
Kalata, was formed to oversee Morein's thesis work.

Four years later, the committee dismissed him, saying he had failed to
complete his thesis.

So Morein ****s up his first couple years, gets new faculty advisers
(a TEAM), and then ****s up again! Brilliant!


Morein claimed that the committee intentionally had undermined him.

Morein makes LOTS of claims that are nonsense. One look thru the
usenet proves it.


Judge Sylvester agreed. In her ruling, Sylvester wrote: "It is this court's
opinion that the defendants were motivated by bad faith and ill will."

So much for political machine judges.

The U.S. Supreme Court receives 7,000 appeals a year and agrees to hear only
about 100 of them.

Hamburg, Drexel's attorney, is betting the high court will reject Morein's
appeal out of hand because its focal point - concerning a student's right to
intellectual property - was not central to the litigation in the
Pennsylvania courts.

Morein said he understands it's a long shot, but he feels he must pursue it.

Failure. Look it up in Websters. You'll see a picture of Robert
Morein. The poster boy for SCAMMING LOSERS.

"I had to seek closure," he said.

Without a doctorate, he said, he has been unable to pursue a career he had
hoped would lead him into research on artificial intelligence.

Who better to tell us about "artificial intelligence".
BWAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!


As it is, Morein lives at home with his father and makes a modest income
from stock investments. He has written a film script that he is trying to
make into a movie. And in the basement of his father's home he is working on
an invention, an industrial pump so powerful it could cut steel with a
bulletlike stream of water.


FAILED STUDENT
FAILED MOVIE MAKER
FAILED SCREENWRITER
FAILED INVESTOR
FAILED DRIVER
FAILED SON
FAILED PARENTS
FAILED INVENTOR
FAILED PLAINTIFF
FAILED HOMOSEXUAL
FAILED HUMAN
FAILED
FAILED

But none of it is what he had imagined for himself.

"I don't really have a replacement career," Morein said. "It's a very
gnawing thing."

A while back I was teasing Morein about getting some measurements wrong
with
respect to a telescope. Actually the Hubble telescope.

Mikey, I had the diameter of the telescope wrong.

However, Mr. Allison is incorrect about the use of the pinhole light
source.
He states, "A pinhole CANNOT, under ANY circumstances, create ANY
approximation of a parallel beam unless it is placed approximately an
infinite distance away."

However, the Focault knife-edge test has been used as a method of
examining
the figure of a mirror for hundreds of years. If the mirror is perfect, a
pinhole source placed at the focus of the mirror will cause a reflection
in
the form of a parallel beam.

Except your own reference doesnt show the pin hole light source
as anything close to parallel. Perhaps with the addition of the proper
mirror a pin hole light source can be converted to parallel, but
your reference doesn't even show that.

Bob, I'm starting to worry about you. Are you under anyones care?

Don't you realise that the pursuit of hi-fi is a life or
death struggle with ideologies and personal reputations at
stake?

This is Earth shattering serious stuff here not just mere
politics like Fascism vs. Capitalism or anything silly like
that. It is not as if starving people are dieing all over
the World or anything as trivial.

Bitrates, SS, Valves, HT etc, etc you know important stuff.
