[al_birkett]

I was first told about this by a friend when we were in the middle of a 'marijuana smoking session' which led to me not believing wot he was telling me .... but after searching on the net I found that this was true check it out for messed up go here (http://www.viewzone.com/philadelphia.html)

That site on The Philadelphia Experiment is a bunch of BS and would'nt put much credit in it.

[SideSwiped]

not very creditable, but the movie was pretty neat.

[SuperJude™]

Yeah, cause we have had time travel for such a long time eh?

The movie was fantastic, however to think that this is real you really nned to think that a UFO crashed in Rozwell New Mexico 50 or so years ago. You either BELIEVE as Fox Mulder did or you don't. I am normally an open minded person, however until I see some type of evidence other than print or Hollywood movies I would have ot say I am on the non-believing side of things at the moment.

Not to say it isn't interesting or does not deserve further scrutiny, however as I have always been one to look for truths or tangible evidence in some form or another, I would have ot say we need to more inforation as well as some type of evidence.

People can say and write whatever they wish, look at all of the fiction novels written in the last 100 years, you will always have someone who thinks it is real or based on facts, even though it was a total unfounded story pulled from an authors mind and was never even implied as real or truthful.

I do think the US and possible some of it's allies tried some tests, maybe even along the lines of what supposedly happened, however if you think this stuff is word for word truth, then I have some bad news, in my opinion any story, no matter what story changes each time it is told. And if I am telling the sotry you can bet it is going to have some cool things like invisibility and bodies being melded with ships and stuff, I mean way too cool to not come up with stuff like that.

By the way the US would definitely not be the winner in a who's done the wierdest tests or experiments category, there have been a lot of things done by a lot of countries that would overshadow anything the US may have tried (Germany(Hitler)/Russia(Stalin)/Italy(Musolini), etc.

Believe what you want to believe but don&#39;t stoop to name calling to do it. <_<

Ok then..... you believe what you want to believe and carry on ignoring the obvious evidence staring you right in the face , you think our goverments hav never tried experiments like this , thats just plain ignorant

[puremindmatters]

The supposed subject of the experiment, the destroyer escort USS Eldridge, was never in Philadelphia during its career with the U.S. Navy (its service logs are available on microfilm.)
The Eldridge supposedly was teleported from Philadelphia to Norfolk in the fall of 1943. Some have claimed that the Eldridge&#39;s re-materialization at Norfolk was witnessed by the SS Andrew Furuseth but records show that the Andrew Furuseth left Norfolk on August 16, 1943 and did not return to the U.S. until January 17, 1944. Also on record is a letter from the ship&#39;s captain stating that no unusual events took place while the Andrew Furuseth was at Norfolk.

It&#39;s a myth. You can search google for hundreds of other myths, and you will have about the same amount of results.

[al_birkett]

so we&#39;re lookin for quotes then.....

Quote 1

Although the story itself seems too bizarre to be true, far too many coincidences have occurred for it to not be based upon some small iota of truth. The technical data that has also been presented upon the subject hold far too much credence to be ignored.

Quote 2

The Navy has released the Eldridge&#39;s deck log and war diary and at no time was the Eldridge in Philadelphia. However, the records could have easily been changed.

you cant just dismiss things like this..... It&#39;s not as easy as that

[DataMore]

If you search google for moon hoax, you&#39;ll see a lot of sites with so called "evidence", stating that Man didn&#39;t actually set foot on the moon. ;)

:huh: Do you believe that one too? :huh:

[puremindmatters]

K, if someone recreates the experiment and lets an object disappear (and teleport) using "the technical data" presented so far, I will believe it.
They haven&#39;t done that yet. The "experiment" they prepared for the show shows nothing, and is based on an optical illusion which doesn&#39;t break up matter at the molecular or sub-molecular level, what allegedly had happened to that ship. That is indeed very scientific, it&#39;s a bit like switching out the light to explain a black hole - and that is probably what the producers of the show must have felt.

And if you ask someone sworn to secrecy if he could divulge something if you asked him, he will of course say no. It doesn&#39;t matter how you phrase the question, the answer will always be no. Wtf does that prove? If you ask a secret agent, who spent all his life in Europe, if he could tell you whether he has ever seen Area 51, if he had in fact seen it, he would of course say no. That doesn&#39;t prove that there is a possibility that he has seen it, or knows of its existence, it just proves that it is a stupid question.

That is why I find all these speculations and theories rather amusing, up to the point where they say they are actually proving something.
It as actually just as likely that a UFO has teleported the damn ship. And it would make just as much sense.

It wasn&#39;t &#39;panic.&#39; It was panic. People were terrified.
