[edit] Electric sky

Electric sky (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

This is a book published in November 2006 by a press that doesn't even show up on a Google search. There is no sign that it has achieved notability. However, there are signs that this article is an attempt to give Don Scott and those who share his views on physics a soapbox, namely, the self-references to Wikipedia and how Wikipedia's existing article on plasma cosmology is "disputed for its neutrality". The article contains no NPOV content about the book, only lengthy direct quotations from its author on why he is right and orthodox cosmology is wrong. In short, this is a POV fork.
