Pelosi defamed  Catt;

Catt, .... outside of academia and structured research ....

 

Whereas in fact

“Currently, three research projects funded by the British Government [in Middlesex University, Brunel University and RSRE Malvern] to develop his [Catt’s] computer inventions are in progress or about to start. He is consulting on these, and also is writing a textbook on digital design. http://www.ivorcatt.org/digital-hardware-design.htm”

 

“Ivor Catt was guest lecturer at the following universities; Bonn, Dublin, Edinburgh, Cambridge, Bristol, York, Newcastle, Imperial, Hertfordshire, UCL, University of Washington St. Louis.”

 

Pieraccini and Selleri defamed Catt;

 

In Section 1 they say:

 

“amateurs and bizarre men away from academia”

“Ivor Catt is probably one of these [2], an engineer and amateur scientist

‘Since 1982 [3], Catt has claimed to have found a fatal flaw in electromagnetism, which he named, with a sense of drama, “The Catt’s Anomaly”’

“Indeed, this is the aim of Catt: to crash the theory of electro magnetism [5, 6]. Actually, he has compared himself to Dingle rather than Einstein”

 

In Section 2 they say:

 

“Catt tried to develop his own electromagnetic theory”

“The academic word did not take Catt seriously much”

 

In Section 3 they say:

 

“Catt has claimed that no academic representative has ever replied in a satisfactory, written, public, manner to his raising this question. In his own book [4], he cites several personal communications”  

“However, Catt declares he is unsatisfied by the answers. He purports to develop a new electromagnetic theory”

“in our opinion, Catt probably misinterprets the concepts of charge and field

P&S rely on the reader not noticing the difference between public and personal

 

There are many other remarks directed at Catt throughout the article by the Italians.
