  Dean drive - Education - Information - Educational Resources - Encyclopedia - Music
The Dean drive obtained a good deal of publicity in the 1960s via the columns of John W. Campbell in Astounding Science Fiction magazine.
Dean, who was trying to find potential buyers for his technology, was secretive about the details of how it was supposed to work, but it was known to contain assymmetrical rotating weights and to generate a great deal of vibration.
Campbell and Dean claimed that Newton's laws of motion were only an approximation, and that Dean had discovered a fourth law of motion, a nonlinear correction to one of Newton's laws, which, if correct, would have made the Dean drive feasible.

 Dean drive - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
The Dean drive or Dean device was invented by Norman L. Dean, who called it a "reactionless drive" — a mechanical device that could use energy to produce linear acceleration without the use of any reaction mass.
Such a device is held to be impossible under the current standard scientific models, as it violates Newtonian physics.
As of 1999, Dean's son, Robert, was still appearing at anti-gravity conferences and giving presentations about his father's device.

DEAN: And that`s what`s lacking on the Republican side, that, plus the culture of corruption that they`ve brought to the statehouses and to Washington, D.C. is going to win us the election in 2006, I think.

 Dean chosen to lead US Democratic Party - World - www.smh.com.au
Dean promised to plunge immediately into the effort to broaden the party's appeal in all 50 states and lead Democrats back from a bruising election in November, when they lost the White House and more seats in both houses of Congress.
Some Democrats have questioned whether Dean, an early and fierce critic of President George W Bush and the Iraq war whose blunt talk often sparked controversy on the campaign trail, was the right choice to lead a Democratic resurgence in conservative Southern and mountain states.
But Dean countered those concerns in recent months by wooing party leaders with promises to focus on state operations, energise the grass roots and build an army of small donors similar to the one that supported his presidential bid.

 Chapter 9:  Sublight (Maneuver) Drives
The Dean Drive manages to change the momentum of the object it accelerates without changing the momentum of any other component of the solar system (or the galaxy, or the universe), and thus alters the total momentum in the system, hence violating the law of conservation of momentum.
Maneuver drives in previous editions of Traveller were explained as related to the same body of theoretical physics which allowed artificial gravity and damper fields, which is to say manipulation of gravitational force and the strong nuclear force.
The Dædalus drive was first proposed by the British Interplanetary Society in the mid-1970s, and in its simplest terms consists of a fuel tank and ignition chamber.

 Jodi Dean: Celebrity's Drive
Drive, however, “stands for the paradoxical possibility that the subject, forever prevented from achieving his Goal.
Insofar as the pseudo-ads invoke the likelihood of an image of us circulating in front of the “free world,” they suggest a celebrity subjectivity: only some sort of celebrity would presume her own “known-ness.” In whatever it is that she is known for, the celebrity makes herself seen, accessible, available, to others.
This is the creepy part of drive, of the reversal involved in making oneself seen: once we offer ourselves up, once we are displayed on the screens of technoculture, we are as trivial as everything else.

Dean may take support from Gephardt even as he loses it to Kerry and Edwards.
At the end of the day, Dean and Gephardt are both calculating that their strong machines will be able to flood the caucuses, which almost never reflect primary voting patterns, though they certainly influence them.

 Byron York on Howard Dean & Iowa Caucuses on National Review Online
Dean's speech, delivered at his headquarters in Des Moines, stunned even some observers used to his displays of anger on the campaign trail.
Although Dean appeared oddly exuberant after what was an extraordinarily disappointing finish, that might easily be attributed to a politician's desire to put a publicly positive face on bad news.
Dean explained that he is "not a big fan of most anti-anxiety drugs." He said he occasionally takes "stuff for sleep," but "anti-anxiety drugs and sleep drugs were essentially the same thing when I was practicing.

As a young liberal Dean devotee and campaign worker for his primary run, I was ecstatic at the news of his arrival on campus and especially excited to have the chance to spend some time with a person that I have been waxing poetically about for months but never actually met firsthand.
After encountering my fair share of adventure during my drive to Kerry’s New Hampshire primary party last winter, I was eager for more excitement, as well as the chance to soak up the aura of Howard Dean (the man, the myth, the legend) and listen to his plans for changing the world.
Dean invited me in, and I was treated with the utmost hospitality by his wife Judith, who handed me a fudgsicle and asked me to sit down at the kitchen table and talk.

I'm not going to go as far as suggesting that Dean's campaign encourage other candidates' efforts (because that would be self defeating for their own campaign) but they shouldn't be alienating other candidate's supporters.
If Dean wins the primary, it would be to his advantage if the other campaigns have a strong internet community and network that Dean can tap into, propelling him through the general election.
