Bschimer; The site is a promotion for a book. I am a supporter of the "Aether" concepts but the brief description at this site indicates the author may be going down the wrong path. I think I would check it out at the library before buying it.
Before you get too far into this topic I offer this passage taken from a lecture given by Einstein in 1920. This will allow you to set those people straight who state that Einstein said the ether did not exist. Ether and the Theory of Relativity - Albert Einstein/ May 5th, 1920 The special theory of relativity forbids us to assume the ether to consist of particles observable through time, but the hypothesis of ether in itself is not in conflict with the special theory of relativity. Only we must be on our guard against ascribing a state of motion to the ether.
This is the link to the entire presentation. http://www.tu-harburg.de/rzt/rzt/it/Ether.html
