<div dir="ltr"><div>Dear Folks,<b><br></b><br></div><div>The 1st responses (below) indicate the enormity of the task we have before us.<b> </b>They also indicate why individually we can make little impact on the subject. We will have to severely limit ourselves. However, in the process we will have to identify, make, and agree on basic assumptions.<b> </b>This will be almost the same as having a workshop on each of the topics. <br><br></div><div>We will not be able to start at the beginning. However, we can start with the photons and their nature, the topic of this conference series. Much has been discussed and learned over the last decade. Let us try to consolidate that into a foundation. A lot more is known about the electron, but there are still many missing pieces. We are trying to build a bridge between the two structures. Nevertheless, it may be the 'knowns' that will cause us more trouble than the unknowns.<b><br><br></b></div><div>In building up an outline of the topic possibilities, before we downsize to a manageable few, let us try to expand the subtopics and see where they overlap, and perhaps lead us to fuse some of them.<b><br></b></div><div><b><br></b></div><div>Andrew<br></div><div><b><br>The starting list for Conference workshop on </b><br><span class="im"><span style="font-size:15px"><font size="4">“Are electrons oscillating photons or oscillations of the vacuum itself?” </font><br></span></span></div><div><b><br>From Chip Akins:</b><br><p><span style="color:black">1.</span><span style="font-size:7pt;color:black"> </span><span style="color:black">The nature of time</span></p><p><span style="color:black">2.</span><span style="font-size:7pt;color:black"> </span><span style="color:black">The nature of space</span></p><p><span style="color:black">3.</span><span style="font-size:7pt;color:black"> </span><span style="color:black">The properties and structure for photons.</span></p><p><span style="color:black">4.</span><span style="font-size:7pt;color:black"> </span><span style="color:black">The speed of light</span></p><p><span style="color:black">5.</span><span style="font-size:7pt;color:black"> </span><span style="color:black">The properties and structure of an electron.</span></p><p><span style="color:black">6.</span><span style="font-size:7pt;color:black"> </span><span style="color:black">Confinement of a photon to create an electron</span></p><p><span style="color:black">7.</span><span style="font-size:7pt;color:black"> </span><span style="color:black">Particle Spin</span></p><p><span style="color:black">8.</span><span style="font-size:7pt;color:black"> </span><span style="color:black">Entanglement, Pilot waves, hidden variable theory with non-commuting variables,</span></p><span style="color:black">9.</span><span style="font-size:7pt;color:black"> </span><span style="color:black">Pair production, electrons from photons, annihilation, photons from electrons.<br><br></span></div><span style="color:black"><b>From David Mathes:</b><br></span><br><div dir="ltr">1.
