There is no proof that SWET has been a lie since day 1.
On the contrary, I think there is now more proof that this thing is real. It is not all talk and unsubstantiated press releases. We have now seen work on a real tower demo. It may not be the exact dimensions, but the demo tower was meant to demonstrate the science and the computer models, which it apparently has done.
There is no updraft as some argued using scientific arguments. If SWET was right on the downdraft science, why would I think they are lying now?
