I've seen GRAVITY pushing the surfer faster than the wave crest; are
you suggesting gravity drives the waves in your particle accellerator?
I have NEVER seen a surfboard catch up to the wave in front!
The wave fronts travelling around in your machine; are they designed
to capture particles thrown out through the wall sideways (or nearly
so)???? Cos that is where the 'hangten' surfie is headed!
