Back in 1987, after hosting the 1st International Keely Symposium,
we of Vangard Sciences were looking for some means of generating a
stable income for carrying out research into the many subjects which
were of interest to us.
Chuck Henderson was primarily into the work of Wilhelm Reich and
Orgone Energy. He had in mind many experiments regarding cloud
busting, Orgone accumulators and the use of orgone in free energy or
levitation modes.
Ron Barker was more into the effects of pyramid energy, UFO's and
the uses of crystals and psychic energy. This included equipment to
enhance ones abilities.
Jerry Decker was primarily into Keely with interests in biology for
healing and age reversal.
Ron had spoken with Bob Wallace, Director of the Gates Planetarium
in Denver regarding his lightning show ZAP!
He told me of the discussion and we made a deal with Bob to lease
his 2.3 MV coil and setup for the lightning show. We had it in mind
to seek corporate sponsorship for public demonstrations as well as
to do non-public experiments on our own.
We also planned to try for a spot at the Texas State Fair to be held
in October as we understood that up to $500,000 could be made for
the 3 week period of the fair. We hoped that anything we made from
this could be placed in trust to provide a continuing interest
payment without affecting the principal. This funding would be used
for our various research projects.
As it turned out, no corporations were interested although we
received many letters. We finally struck a deal with the owner of a
closed movie theater to give the show a try for one month.
After creating a special stage, running custom 220VAC power and
shielding the inside walls with chicken wire to provide Faraday
shielding, we began our shows. During that run, we only succeeded
in attracting one newspaper article and one entertainment mention.

Ron had spent hours visting radio, TV and newspaper offices as well
as many phone calls trying to elicit interest.
We had numerous engineers and technical types attend our one hour
shows, even with a special group from Texas Power and Light.
However much they loved the show, they felt it would be
irresponsible to sponsor a show that showed electricity streaming
from ones fingers. Never mind that the show was heavy into
explaining the safe use of electricity with all its dangers and the
Kids, don't try this at home warnings.
As to technical details and any phenomena that we noted, the coil
had a maximum output of 2.3 million volts. It used a rotating spark
gap which was fan quenched. It was tuned for 170 KHZ.
By adjusting the distance between the spark gaps we could increase
the output or decrease it as desired. For the general effects, we
used the full 2.3 MV and for the section where the Mr. ZAP character
allowed the electricity to run over his body, the power was reduced
to 900,000 Volts.
To get the best effects, the greatest power must be used so Ron,
Chuck and I each stood on the platform to determine how much we
could handle without pain. Chuck seemed to be most sensitive to the
energy and would cringe at about 650 to 700 KV.
Ron could take up to 800 KV while I had no problems running at 900
KV. Once, we cranked it up to 1 MV but I could only stand it for
about 10 seconds. It felt like you were vibrating, rather jerking,
but the worst was the emission of current from any pointed area.
This actually burned the skin and drilled small holes which were
black on inspection.
Of course, this burning occurred anytime the energy was allowed to
flow directly from the skin, however, the electrical potential
determined the degree of burn and thus the pain level.
The show used a narrator, Wayne Fowler who had memorized a script
relating the facts of Tesla's life and which was all sequenced to
the actions of the Mr. Zap character.
We included as much spectacle as possible, from roasting
marshmallows with lighting to be fed to the audience, to letting
them hold fluourescent tubes while the machine was energized.
Two interesting anomalous observations that occurred which might be
of interest :
1) I had about 3 warts on my hands, one on my right thumb, one
on my left index finger and another on my left wrist. Now
warts are caused by viruses which are known to be destroyed
by high levels of oxygen. These had been present for years.
After about two weeks of doing the ZAP program which involved
the emission of lightning from metal caps attached to the
fingers (ZAP3.GIF), I happened to be at work and was using a
screwdriver. Something did not feel the same and I looked
Page 2
down to see that ALL the warts were completely gone with not
scars or visible trace that they had ever been.
2) To watch the energy streaming off the skin is a fascinating
display, and during the show we would separate the fingers to
provide multiple paths and then join them together to form
rivers of plasma.
I would at times allow the energy to flow off my elbows and
one day while watching it flow from my right elbow with an
audience in attendance, I noticed these small yellow spheres
mixed in with the outflowing streams.
These yellow spheres were about 1/8 to 1/4 inch in diameter
and all were identical as to color, intensity and size. They
appeared to jump off the skin fully created. I was so
entranced that for about a minute I forgot about the audience
while viewing the spheres.
After the show, I discussed it with Ron and Chuck and we
decided it could be one of two things. Either it was ball
lightning or it was energized salt particles that glowed
yellow due to the sodium. I should explain here that we used
two bottles of water, one was highly saturated with salt, the
other was distilled. This was because energy when resisted,
generates heat, so we wanted the greatest energy transfer from
the electrical cable into our feet yet we did not wish to burn
up our hair.
For that reason, we sprayed the salt solution on our feet and
the metal plate yet sprayed the distilled water on our hair
and head to prevent burning.
We thought it possible that the spheres could be ionized
bubbles of salt, either generated from body salt or through
careless applicaton of the salt spray.
So the next day, I made sure that absolutely sure that no
extraneous salt spray had come in contact with anything but my
feet. When we lit up the machine, the bubbles appeared again.
One further point, these bubbles DID NOT APPEAR until the
power level reached or exceeded approximately 800 KV.
There is another file on KeelyNet which had a direct bearing on this
project, and that is the files HARDY1.ASC based on the image
HARDY1.GIF. We hoped that such a large Tesla coil would yield much
more spectacular results. However, we did not get the chance to
carry out this experiment while in the theater setting.
