  • cur | prev November 2018 T. Vogel (talk | contribs) . . (1,880 bytes) (+290) . . (→ In this encyclopedia: a first-rate man who published everything, invited replication, and got half of one. the encyclopedia declines both of the easy readings and asks the reader to hold two things at once)
  • cur | prev 2012 an editor (talk | contribs) . . (1,590 bytes) (+100) . . (→ the conventional account of his own effect is now the temperature, the pressure and the humidity of the room. this is recorded here without comment, there being none available that is not cruel)
  • cur | prev 9 October 2010 an executor (talk | contribs) . . (1,490 bytes) (+40) m . . (→ Death and legacy: at Saint-Cloud, aged ninety-nine. fifty-eight years on the pendulum, and the prize on the wall is for the other thing)
  • cur | prev 2005 M. Allais (talk | contribs) . . (1,450 bytes) (+80) . . (→ the last of the re-analyses. he is ninety-four)
  • cur | prev 2000 M. Allais (talk | contribs) . . (1,370 bytes) (+120) . . (→ and a third note, on the question itself: were Miller's regularities the anisotropy of space or the temperature of his hut? I say the first. I am aware what is generally said)
  • cur | prev August 1999 an eclipse campaign (talk | contribs) . . (1,250 bytes) (+90) . . (→ What became of the effect: pendulums watched all over the world this month. several found nothing. two or three found something and are being argued with about how they found it)
  • cur | prev 1999 M. Allais (talk | contribs) . . (1,160 bytes) (+140) . . (→ Miller's advocate: notes to the Académie. there are real regularities in his 1925 runs and they were filed away rather than answered. I have re-computed them)
  • cur | prev 1997 M. Allais (talk | contribs) . . (1,020 bytes) (+190) . . (→ The anisotropy of space: the book. the pendulum, the sightings, Esclangon's observations, and Miller's interferometry. four bodies of data and one conclusion, which is that space has a direction)
  • cur | prev 1988 the Nobel Committee (talk | contribs) . . (830 bytes) (+60) m . . (→ the prize, in economics, for the theory of markets. he is seventy-seven and has been at the pendulum for thirty-six years)
  • cur | prev 2 October 1959 M. Allais (talk | contribs) . . (770 bytes) (+150) . . (→ again, and by a similar amount. twice is not a result. twice is a reason to keep going, which I intend to do)
  • cur | prev 30 June 1954 M. Allais (talk | contribs) . . (620 bytes) (+200) . . (→ The two eclipses: the plane turned during the eclipse, sharply, and came back afterwards. I was not watching for it. I record that I was not watching for it because it is the only thing that makes the observation worth anything)
  • cur | prev 1952 M. Allais (talk | contribs) . . (420 bytes) (+420) . . (created; a pendulum on a ball bearing in a cup rather than a fixed point, so that the bob may precess as it likes. released every twenty minutes, day and night, by whoever is awake)
