1. THE AUTO-ZAP: 13 ISSUES

It is hard to know what to do when a competitor makes inaccurate statements about your product on his website. Do you just ignore it or can you find a way to respond in a respectful and professional manner? I do not want my zapper to be misrepresented by other zapper makers so I will respond to the competition in order to clarify matters.

The maker of the Auto-Zap zapper, Arthur Doerksen, has made a number of inaccurate and misleading statements about The Ultimate Zapper on his website which I feel obliged to comment on. He corrected some of these misstatements after I emailed him about them. But there are still a number of misstatements on his site that need clarification and correction.

In addition, there are some statements he makes about his Auto-Zap zapper which I find confusing and contradictory and I will discuss those statements here as well. This discussion is meant to clarify these matters for the many people who have emailed me about them.

I respect Arthur Doerksen's professional credentials. I have emailed him to let him know that I do. I met him at his home in Vancouver, B.C. in 1996 and we spent hours talking, together with his wife. He has stated to me that he is very careful about the statements he makes on his website. I hope that the misstatements he makes about The Ultimate Zapper on his site are innocent mistakes on his part.

But one thing that is not an innocent mistake, in my opinion, is his copying the name of my website. Please read part 2, below, for the story of Arthur Doerksen's Ultimate Zapper website which his son recently created with Arthur's knowledge, and on his behalf.

First, here is a discussion of 13 issues regarding the Auto-Zap site.

Issue number one.

One thing that Arthur Doerksen does which I have not done and which I will never do is to seek the approval of Dr. Hulda Clark to sell zappers or to make it appear, as he does on his site, that Dr. Clark's son, Geoff, "approved" his zapper and that it therefore has more credibility, or is better or more effective than other zappers. Nothing could be further from the truth. This "approval" was essentially a verification of output specifications, and nothing more. It simply verified that zappers sent in for his "approval" conformed to the output specifications as outlined in his mother's books. This included a positive offset square wave with between 25,000 and 30,000 Hertz output. The Geoff Clark "approval" is still used as a marketing tool by many zapper makers who seek to give their zapper the benefit of the Hulda Clark cachet, her "seal of approval". Geoff Clark stopped providing this service years ago.

On his site Arthur states "We became friends with Geoff Clark and some of the Self-Health Resource Center folks. During this time we developed our own zapper, the Auto-Zap, which was tested and approved by Geoff Clark." This statement is misleading because it does not explain what the Geoff Clark "approval" consisted of. It implies that the approval was an endorsement. It was not. This is what I characterize as a lie by omission.

You can see a copy of Geoff Clark's "approval" letter on the Hulda Clark page. If Joe Blow's zapper had conformed to Dr. Clark's specifications Geoff Clark would have also given his "approval" to the Joe Blow zapper. In addition to this misleading marketing tool, Arthur has photo ops of himself and his wife with Dr. Clark on his site to help boost his zapper sales. The great irony of all this is that the Auto-Zap is still based on the outdated square-wave that Dr. Clark originated 12 years ago which has only 50% positive pulsations. The New Improved Ultimate Zapper's square wave not only has 100% positive pulses, it is stabilized and distortion-free.

I have not sought Dr. Clark's recognition or approval, or that of her son Geoff, for my zapper, as so many other zapper makers have. I have made no attempt to contact her or her son in order to curry favor with them. I do not use her name to sell my zapper, as so many other zappers makers have done without her approval. While recognizing the importance of her work, I have retained the intellectual freedom that I feel one must have in order to think freely and act independently.

Many zapper makers use Dr. Clark's name on their site in such a way as to lead people to believe that Dr. Clark is associated with their site. She is not associated with any site but her own at

http://www.drclark.net

They use her name freely as a promotional tool. Although she might have, Dr. Clark has never taken any action against anyone using her name to sell their zappers because she feels that if people are being helped then she should not do anything to detract from that fact. Dr. Clark has a good heart.

David Amrein of the Dr. Clark Research Association has gone even further by taking Dr. Clark's name, using it blatantly to sell his zappers without Dr. Clark's approval. For more information about this please click here.

I have not sought Dr. Clark's recognition or approval, or that of her son Geoff, for my zapper, as so many other zapper makers have. While I let people know that my zapper is based on her original concept I do not use her name to sell my zapper, as so many other zappers makers have done, without her approval. While recognizing the importance of her research, I have retained the intellectual freedom that I feel one must have in order to think freely and act independently.

In the past, many zapper makers sought Dr. Clark's approval for their devices, including Arthur Doerksen for his Auto-Zap zapper. This approval consisted merely of a verification of the output of the zapper by her son, Geoff, and nothing more. You can see a copy of this letter of verification on the Dr. Hulda Clark page on my site here. Who is Geoff Clark? He is Dr. Hulda Clark's son, a businessman, not an electrical engineer or an electronics expert. Arthur Doerksen prides himself on being an electrical engineer but he relies on an amateur to "approve" his zapper, which I find ironic. Even moreso since he, and his son Fraser, have denigraded my work, implying that being an electrical or electronics professional is of paramount importance in the zapper field and automatically places one on a higher plane. Being a mere inventor is of a far lesser order, with the implication that one is a mere tinkerer who could not possibly create an effective device, let alone one that is superior to a device created by a "professional". Arthur and Fraser Doerken neglect to point out that both Dr. Hulda Clark and her son, Geoff, are essentially tinkerers. They are both amateurs in the the fields of electrical engineering and electronics. Being an amateur and a mere inventor did not prevent Dr. Clark from creating the amazing zapper in 1993. And it did not prevent me from inventing The Ultimate Zapper in 1996. You can't have it both ways, Arthur and Fraser.

Update on Dec. 7, 2007. Arthur Doerksen has removed Dr. Clark's "approval" from his site.

Issue number two.

Arthur states that my, "Exclusive 'All positive pulsations' claim is untrue, as the Auto-Zap and all 555 timer battery operated zappers have only positive pulsations." This is technically correct, and I have emailed him acknowledging this. But being technically correct does not address the central issue. Having no "negative pulses coming out" of his zapper, as he states on his website, does not mean that his square wave is all positive and all therapeutic in the way that I define positive and therapeutic. It is not. I illustrate the difference by showing live oscilloscope pictures on the front page of my site, and by comparing them with the oscilloscope design of the square wave on Arthur's site.

I define a positive square wave with all-positive pulsations as a square wave that has only a top side. Hulda Clark has stated that the top side is the therapeutic side of the wave and that the bottom side of the wave is not therapeutic. The bottom side of the Auto-Zap zapper wave is positive, technically speaking, but since it is just above the zero line, skirting negative territory, it constitutes the bottom side of the wave and is therapeutically ineffective, what I term the negative side of the wave. You can even see this clearly on Mr. Doerksen's own site in his oscilloscope pictures. Only the top side of the Auto-Zap wave is therapeutically effective, which is also true for all other Hulda Clark zappers available. The bottom side of his wave is 50% of the wave. So, 50% of the wave produced by his zapper is not therapeutic.

The Ultimate Zapper's square wave is 100% positive, 100% top side, 100% therapeutic. You can see this by comparing the oscilloscope photos on my website with the oscilloscope design on Mr. Doerksen's website. This is the main feature that distinguishes the square wave of The Ultimate Zapper from all other Hulda Clark zappers, including Mr. Doerksen's Auto-zap zapper. This is what helps make The Ultimate Zapper unique, and uniquely effective. Mr. Doerksen has yet to comment on these observations. His only comment is that I talk double speak. I beg to differ. I think I talk single speak. I think that what I am saying is perfectly clear. And what I am saying is backed up by results. The results that people are getting with my zapper speak for themselves. You can read the testimonials on my website. Mr. Doerksen has no testimonials on his website. People have been getting superior results with my zapper for 12 years.

Another way of thinking about the top side of the square wave is to use the analogy of a bow and arrow. If the arrow (wave) is longer, it penetrates deeper. The top side of The Ultimate Zapper's wave is twice as long as the top side of all Hulda Clark zappers, including the Auto-Zap zapper. So, it penetrates at least twice as deep into the tissues and organs as the other Hulda Clark zappers. With the skin effect it penetrates 7 times as deep as most Hulda Clark zappers. It is the most therapeutic Hulda Clark zapper available.

Another way of thinking about all this is that the arrows (top side of the wave) produced by traditional Hulda Clark zappers are twice as short as the arrows (top side of the wave) produced by The Ultimate Zapper. Even if you zap for twice as long you will not get the same results as The Ultimate Zapper provides because the longer arrow, the top side of the wave, of The Ultimate Zapper penetrates much deeper than the shorter arrow of other Hulda Clark zappers. As a result The Ultimate Zapper has a greater therapeutic effect than all other Hulda Clark zappers, including the Auto-Zap.

Issue number three.

Arthur says that The Ultimate Zapper has a cheap AC adapter. This negative comment is meant to sow doubt in the minds of people looking for a zapper and is meant to discourage them from considering The Ultimate Zapper as a serious choice. The fact is that The Ultimate Zapper's AC adapter is the single most expensive component of the zapper. It is a high quality double insulated unit that is UL and CSA approved. Arthur has not disclosed the price of the components in his zapper. I imagine that he has been able to purchase some of them at a reasonable price without compromising quality. If he paid a higher price for the same components enabling him to say that the components in his zapper are expensive, would that change the quality of the components and the quality of his zapper? I think not. The issue here is quality, not price. The Ultimate Zapper is made of the highest quality components available. This is why I feel totally confident in offering an unconditional lifetime warranty for my zapper. I am the only zapper maker in the world who offers such a warranty. The Auto-zap zapper only offers a 5-year warranty. The double insulation of the Ultimate Zapper's AC adapter makes it fail-safe. So, the GFCI that was previously shipped with each zapper is redundant.

Issue number four.

On his website Arthur states, "Dr. Clark is adamant about battery power for safety, and I agree." Once again Arthur raises the safety issue. The fact is that the AC powered Ultimate Zapper is as safe as any battery-powered zapper. It is 100% safe thanks to its double insulation. It is UL and CSA approved. The safety of The Ultimate Zapper is a non-issue. And no matter how many times Arthur raises this issue on his website it will remain a non-issue. I have been selling The Ultimate Zapper for 12 years and there has not been one single instance of malfunction.

Issue number five.

Arthur makes a serious misstatement about The Ultimate Zapper's design. He uses one definition of fail-safe and I use another definition, a more common definition, I might add. His definition is confusing, in my opinion. The Ultimate Zapper is indeed 100% guaranteed fail-safe thanks to its double insulated AC adapter. His statement that The Ultimate Zapper does not have a fail-safe design is completely false and totally misleading and is a back-handed comment that amounts to scare-mongering. Arthur's definition of fail-safe is less common. By fail-safe he means that his zapper has a quality control mechanism to make sure that the output of his zapper is correct. The Ultimate Zapper does not need such a quality control mechanism because when the red light is on it is automatically functioning according to the advertised specifications. Each Ultimate Zapper is tested on an oscilloscope before shipping to guarantee that the output produced conforms strictly to the advertised specifications on my site.

Issue number six.

Arthur states that "The higher output voltage is not an advantage either, according to Dr. Clark's research: she specifies 5 to 10 volts." This is a very interesting comment because Hulda Clark now states that an output level of at least 9.4 volts is required on order for the zapper to be therapeutically effective. For 12 years Dr. Clark has espoused a battery zapper that produced a 9-volt charge that declined quickly with continued use. Arthur, the maker of the Auto-Zap, has agreed with her for 12 years. Now Dr. Clark has declared that at least 9.4 volts is required for the zapper to be effective, and Arthur has made no comment about this reversal. He knows that The Ultimate Zapper features a higher voltage, and has done so for 12 years. But he lets Dr. Clark's earlier statement about the adequacy of zapping with a 9-volt zapper that discharges quickly down to zero remain on his website knowing full well that she has since reversed herself. If he acknowledged this reversal he would have to comment on this change, decide whether he agrees with her earlier position or her new position, and he would have to retract his implied criticism of The Ultimate Zapper, which is based on Hulda Clark's earlier preference for a lower voltage zapper. And he would have to address the fact, and the problem, that his own Auto-Zapr works off a discharging 9-volt battery which quickly falls into the non-therapeutic sub-9 volt zone.

I knew 12 years ago that higher voltage makes a big difference in therapeutic effectiveness. My hands were not tied by any invisible loyalty to Dr. Clark. I have never used her name or approval to promote my zapper, and I have never sought or asked for her approval, unlike Arthur, among other zapper makers. My only desire was to make the best zapper possible, even if that meant questioning some of her assumptions and changing her formula. The Ultimate Zapper has been featuring a higher voltage for a decade. This is one of the features that make it the most effective zapper in the world.

Issue number seven.

Arthur claims to make the world's best zapper? He states that "The Auto-zap zapper is the best unit to keep you zapping!" It is the "Rolls-Royce" of zappers, according to him. I have no idea what he means by this, and he does not explain this vague claim clearly on his website. He has a list of features on his site that he says makes his zapper the best zapper in the world. I have copied this list, below, for your perusal. It depends on what you mean by the word "best". He says his zapper "goes farther" than other zappers. However, there is only one feature on this list, the lower frequency, which The Ultimate Zapper also features, that makes it more effective than some other Hulda Clark zappers.

All the other features on this list are what I call "bells and whistles", add-ons that are not related in any way to the effectiveness of the zapper itself, such as a pocket clip, a sound alert, and an LED light. Please check out this list and decide for yourself if I am right or wrong. The Ultimate Zapper has 11 unique features that really make it the best zapper in the world. They are featured on the Front Page page of my website. You can also see my list below. There are no "bells and whistles" on my list of features.

Dr. Clark's "approval"
and "Bells & Whistles"

Earlier this year, on this page, I observed that many zapper makers use Dr. Hulda Clark's "approval" to promote zapper sales. As a result, Arthur Doerksen has removed the "Dr. Clark approval feature" from his list of zapper features. But there is still only one single feature on his list that applies to zapper effectiveness: the 2,500 Hertz frequency. All the other features are in the "bells and whistles" category. Unlike The Ultimate Zapper which has 11 unique operational features that make it, by far, the very best zapper in the world. Here is the list of features that appears on the front page of my website.

As you can see, there are no "bells and whistles" on my list of features. In addition, The Ultimate Zapper features an unconditional lifetime warranty on parts and labor, the only zapper in the world that offers such a warranty. Mr. Doerksen's Auto-Zap zapper only has a 5-year warranty. In addition, The Ultimate Zapper can be used with a 9-volt battery if you are away from a wall plug. It also has a sensor LED that gives a positive indication that the actual output at the handholds conforms to the strict specifications that are advertised on my site.

Issue number eight.

I note that Arthur has just started publishing the first testimonials for his zapper on his site, possibly inspired by the testimonial page that has been on my site for many years. I note that he does not update the testimonials on his site, as I do every month. My site features a new testimonial every month and it has a separate testimonial archive that features dozens of remarkable unsolicited testimonials that I have received from people who have used The Ultimate Zapper over the past 12 years. In fact, the testimonial archive on my website is only the tip of the testimonial iceberg.

Issue number nine.

Arthur states that his zapper is the only zapper that offers a 3-month trial period. This is clearly untrue. I offer a 3-month trial period for The Ultimate Zapper and have done so for years.

Issue number ten.

The heading on Mr. Doerksen's website is clearly misleading. It states:

"Want GUARANTEED Results?
Use the Professional Auto-Zap Hulda Clark Zapper RISK-FREE
Three month full 100% money-back guarantee"

The fact is that Arthur is not guaranteeing medical results with his zapper, which is implied by this heading, because that's impossible for any zapper maker to do. But it appears he would like to have people believe that he is capable of doing so. The only thing that he can and does do with any assurance is to guarantee the specifications of his zapper which any self-respecting zapper maker should be doing, and to guarantee to give you your money back if you are not satisfied. I do the same for my zapper. Arthur is implying that he is guaranteeing medical results by creating this heading. No zapper maker should do this because even implying a medical claim is against the law. I believe that it is reckless and also unethical. I do not guarantee results with my zapper or make any medical claims, either explicit or implicit, for it. And I am honest and straightforward on my trial offer page. For returns I charge $12.95 for cleaning, retesting, restocking and repackaging which serves to discourage frivolous orders, having an already very busy production and shipping team. Yes, Arthur, everyone wants guaranteed results. But you should not being implying that your zapper guarantees medical results. It cannot. No zapper can make that claim. I certainly do not.

Issue number eleven.
On the front page of his website Arthur declares,

"No other site has this info!"

Following the link, he quotes Dr. Hulda Clark as saying "It takes three treatments to kill everything."

I don't know about other zapper sites but my site certainly does not have this "info", and it never will. Why? Because it is misleading.

Saying that 3 treatments kill everything amounts to offering an across-the-board medical guarantee to each and every one of his customers. That is illegal. Athough there may be some outstanding cases where results were obtained quickly, and some have been reported to me and appear on the testimonial archive on my website, I would never tell people that 3 treatments will "kill everything", implying that 3 treatments will kill all the pathogens in their body and solve all their health problems. In most cases it takes many treatments to get results, up to 3 months or more if, in fact, any lasting results are to be obtained.


Arthur quotes Dr. Clark, again. "Dr. Clark did not publish until she had 100 theoretically cured cases in December 1993."

First of all, using the word cure on any website is misleading, and it is also against the law. I never use the word "cure" on my website. Secondly, what does "theoretically cured cases" mean? It seems to mean cases that are cured, but only in theory, which would not constitute cure in my books. What's the use if the theory says you're cured but you're not? And where is the clinical proof of these "theoretical" cures? I have yet have to see that proof.

Issue number twelve.

You now have to be authorized to view the zapper comparison chart on the Auto-Zap site. It is a restricted area. God knows why. Here is the message that appears when you click on the margin to access the comparison chart on the Auto-Zap site: "You are not authorised to view this resource. You need to login." The zapper comparison charts on my site are open for all. No authorization or registration is needed to access any page on my site.

2 LETTERS FROM CONCERNED CUSTOMERS

Here are 2 unsolicited letters I recently received
concerning Mr. Doerksen's site and
the statements that he makes about my site.

Letter # 1.

Hi Ken,

Just went through your site. Nice job. Your antagonist at Auto-Zap is using argumentative techniques taught to most debate team members, who use them in that "win at all costs" activity. They are the "Illicit Minor", not particularly sophisticated and the "Undistributed Middle" very effective. I.E. Everybody who lives on this street loves peaches. Joe absolutely loves peaches. Therefore Joe must live on this street. Not great fun if done with any type of style will fool or at least confuse a lot of folks. As a Jesuit trained Logician, it's a little easier to spot the techniques because you use them so often. I'm not a Jesuit, just someone who went to St Joseph as an undergrad. Just wanted to tell you that your story gave me hope and made me feel a ton better when I really needed it.

Be well, Warren

Letter # 2 is a letter emailed to Mr. Doerksen by Robert (last name withheld) from Sydney , Australia regarding Mr. Doerksen's website and my website.

Hello Arthur,

I clicked on the link to take me to your comparison chart and after I studied your comparison chart I felt I needed to write you this message.

Firstly, I should let you know that I am currently in the market to buy a very high quality Dr Clark zapper unit, and to help me decide which particular brand & model to purchase I have recently been carefully studying all the information I can possibly get my hands on about the various types of zappers. This has included studying information that you have posted on your web site, as well as information posted on the web sites of other zapper manufacturers/marketers.

I would like to draw your attention to the fact that as part of my pre-purchase studying I also spent some time studying the web site of Ken Presner - who markets a unit known as the "Ultimate Zapper" - and as a result of studying Ken's site I believe you have included some inaccurate information in your comparison chart. In particular:

1) I can confirm that your unit is NOT the only unit to be offered to customers with a 3-month no-risk trial period, hence surely you cannot make the assertions you do about your unit being the only one that comes with a 3-month free-trial period. Ken also offers a 3-month free-trial period.

2) After studying & comparing the specifications of both your zapper unit and Ken's zapper unit, it is my opinion that you are not being fully honest with visitors to your web comparison chart - because from my study of Ken's unit it is my understanding that he also claims his unit is of a "fail safe" design. Admittedly it appears both you and he are using the term "fail safe" to describe quite different qualities - in his case it is my understanding that he is mainly using this term to describe features of his unit that assure 100% electrical safety, whereas you appear to be using the term with respect to the quality of the output signals at the handheld electrodes, but nonetheless is it fair to say his unit entirely lacks failsafe features?

3) My final comment about comparison charts is that if it is your intention with this comparison chart to try and convince potential buyers to select your brand and model of zapper over competitors' brands/models, then in my opinion that type of comparison chart should not only highlight the features that the subject brand of zapper has that other brands do not have, but they should also highlight the features that are absent from the subject brand but which are present in other brands. What this means is that I would also like to see you add some extra columns into your comparison chart to ensure that all zapper-type features are addressed - including features which your unit does not possess. If you truly believe your Zapper is the best on the market, then surely you would not hesitate to incorporate this enhancement into your comparison chart. Otherwise I think you owe it to your web site visitors to tell them that your particular comparison chart does not address all the different aspects that someone might consider when selecting a brand of zapper.

Arthur, I don't pretend to be either an electrician or an electronics buff, but even with my lay level of knowledge, once I find some statements on anyone's web site that just plainly I know cannot be true, then clearly I have no choice but to doubt the veracity of the entire site. It is my opinion that you guys who are marketing these types of products need to be absolutely accurate with all and any assertions you make about both your own products, as well as about competitors' products. You owe at least this much to the people who visit your web site - surely you understand only too well that many of these visitors are very likely experiencing major health difficulties in life - and because they are often looking for anything of hope to cling onto, they may not always have the frame of mind to see past partial truths &/or outright lies. So please do not put any such additional burden on visitors to your web site. Another aspect of this is simply to ask yourself: "How would you like one of your competitors to post untruths about either you or your products on their web site?"

The doubt that you have now given me makes me also wonder if I would be wise to get a qualified independent electronics person to examine each of the oscilloscope wave forms of both your and Ken's machines in order to seek an independent opinion about the veracity of all technical statements you make. What would in fact be helpful is if all manufacturers/marketers of Dr Clark zappers were to submit their machines to an independent laboratory in order to certify the specifications of those machines - and of course then to make the report produced by the independent laboratory available to potential customers.

So Arthur, please keep things totally easy and honest so as not to confuse people like me who are trying their best to do honest research to decide what is the best zapper for them to buy. I suspect it would only take a few disgruntled people like me to post their gripes to various web forums to do a lot of damage to the commercial reputation of anyone selling zappers by anything less than totally honest means.

I hope you have appreciated the time I have taken to write this note to you, and I expect that you will promptly review/edit the content of your comparison chart.

Yours sincerely,

Robert from

Sydney , Australia


The above letter was received over 2 years ago. It is now June 24, 2007. Arthur Doerksen has yet to review/edit the content of his comparison chart.

2.THE AUTO-ZAP "ULTIMATE ZAPPER"
WEBSITE CLARIFIED AND EXPLAINED

In this section I will clarify matters surrounding the ultimatezapper.com website which was recently created by Arthur and Fraser Doerksen. They have just changed the name of their site to to myzapper.com after an exchange of emails with me. It was not clear when they created their new ultimate zapper site that Arthur Doerksen and his son Fraser Doerksen were in business together. It appeared that this was Arthur Doerksen's site, alone, because all references on the site are to Arthur Doerksen. There was no mention anywhere on the site about Fraser Doerksen. I discovered that Fraser Doerksen was behind the ultimatezapper.com website after I published an open letter to his father, Arthur Doerksen, which provoked a heated response from Fraser Doerksen which you can read, below. Fraser Doerksen is still using the phrase "Discover the ultimate Zapper" at the top of his new myzapper.com website which he has recently re-named fraserjohn.com. He is now developing this website into the new Auto-Zap site which features the same old Auto-Zap zapper that the bestzapper.com has been featuring for the past 12 years.

I originally emailed Arthur Doerksen the following message on March 20, 2007:

Dear Arthur,

As you are well aware, having known me personally back in 1996, I gave my zapper and my website the name The Ultimate Zapper 12 years ago. With all the domain names to choose from last month for your new ghost website you chose the name Ultimate Zapper for your very own. You are now calling my Ultimate Zapper the so-called Ultimate Zapper and you are calling your new website ultimatezapper.com where you are selling the perfect Dr. Clark zapper. You never explain what is "perfect" about the Auto-Zap.

The only thing so-called about The Ultimate Zapper is that you use the words so-called to describe it, also without explanation. When people click on the links to purchase your so-called "perfect" zapper they are led back to your old Auto-Zap website where they can purchase the same old Auto-Zap zapper you have been selling for the past 12 years. You have made no changes at all to your Auto-Zap. I call it the "so-called" perfect zapper for a good reason. I explain all of this, and much more, in this open letter and in part 3 of this series of articles on the Auto-Zap entitled THE AUTO-ZAP PART 3: OTHER SERIOUS ISSUES.

I sent the following email to Fraser Doerksen, Arthur Doerksen's son, on April 1, 2007.

Dear Fraser,

Thank you for your messages. I have combined them, below. I have also cut and pasted your father's email reply to me, below. First of all, in your father's email reply to me he made no mention at all that he is not associated with ultimatezapper.com. The use of his picture on the site, his story on the site, and the links that take the visitor back to bestzapper.com, his website, indicated to me that ultimatezapper.com was his site. Further creating this impression was his polite and considerate apology to me, and his statement that he stands by his technical assessments. Given all this evidence it never even occurred to me that the situation might be more complex than it looked. I was not wrong in coming to the logical conclusion that I came to, that ultimatezapper.com was your father's site. Your name was not mentioned anywhere on the site and there was not even a hint of anyone else being involved. Please see below for my comments.

I received the following email from Arthur Doerksen. I have made some comments and they are embedded in the email and are in bold:

Dear Ken,

I never did receive the letter you posted and said you had sent to me March 20th, 2007. What was the subject line? When did you send it to me? I cannot find anything from you in my spam filter either. [This was an open letter on my site which appears below.] We have certainly meant you and [your wife] no harm with anything we have said or done on the web or the phone. I stand by my technical assessments and Dr. Clark quotes as accurate. The 8.9 volt spec by Dr. Clark applies only to plate zapping, as far as I can see in her books. Please give me the reference if I am wrong in this. [Dr. Clark actually states that the voltage for plate zapping has to be 9.4 volts or more, and that it must not fall below 8.9 volts. I infer from this that unless the voltage is kept at a similar level for normal zapping that the results will be sub-par. All the evidence I have been able to accumulate over the years supports this inference.] Just for the record, our Auto-Zap has never had a 555 timer or any variant of a 555 timer chip (e.g. 7555, TLC555, or similar) in it. Only CMOS logic. And we offered footpads about 8 years ago, then simply told people how to make them in our instruction sheet because they cost more to ship than they were worth. You can make lovely footpads from kitchen aluminum foil in 30 seconds. I did notice that half way down your Competition page you give a link to www.DrClark.com as Hulda's only real site, yet you correctly say farther down that this site (and the Dr. Clark Research Association) is in fact not linked to her at all. Her only site is www.HuldaClark.net [I have made this correction on my site.]By the way, their Super Zappers all have constant voltage output, adjustable from 9 to 16 volts. [This is not true. I have checked the Dr. Clark Research Association site. The Super Zapper is battery powered. Only an AC powered zapper can produce constant voltage.] And the SyncroZap A6 zapper also has a constant 10 volt output. [This is not true. I have checked the SyncroZap site. It is battery powered. Only an AC powered zapper can produce constant voltage.] You should update your chart and feature list to reflect this. [No update is necessary. All the information is accurate on the charts and on the other pages on my site.] Are you still living in [the name of my residence]? Sounds like a great place to find mangosteen. But the peel is the healing part. [This is not true. Please see below for more information about mangosteen juice.] Peace to you and [your wife]!

Here is my reply to the above email. My additional comments are embedded in bold:

Dear Arthur,

Thank you for your sympathic message. I appreciate it very much.

The letter I was referring to is the open letter on the Competition page of my site.

I will trace the reference to 8.9 volts in my files. When I reviewed this information for publication it clearly stated that Dr. Clark was referring to the need for more than 8.9 volts for the mobilization of red blood cells and complete detoxification. [My files show that this reference is to plate zapping. I infer from Dr. Clark's references to voltage in her publication at http://www.drloyd.com/syncrometer.pdf that she must now surely be placing a similar importance on voltage levels for body zapping. It would make no sense to assume otherwise, in my opinion. She does not talk publicly about this aspect of zapping since a constant voltage of over 9.4 volts implies the use of an AC adapter which she has eschewed in the past. She has made reference to 5 to 10 volts in the distant past but like her references to 25,000 to 30,000 Hertz these old yardsticks are now outmoded. I believe that Dr. Clark knows this but is choosing to steer clear of the debate. Dr. Clark is avoiding making any comments on the controversy about voltage and frequency at the present time. Reports coming back to me show the overwhelming importance of a high and constant voltage and a low frequency for optimum therapeutic results.]
Thank you for informing me about the CMOS logic in the Auto-Zap. I will clarify this on my site. I do not know what the difference is between this and the CMOS or TTL chips. [I have clarified this on my site.]
I will review the Dr. Clark links that you are referring to. If I have made a mistake I will certainly correct it. [I have made one link correction.]
When I refer to a constant voltage I refer to a voltage that does not discharge, that remains at a constant level at all times. I will check the information on the SynchroZap A6 and I will correct any errors on my site. [This is the Hulda Clark A6 zapepr. It does not have constant voltage. I shecked this out on the SynchroZap website.]

I will check out any information I can find about mangosteen peels. They are very bitter. I have never heard of juice being made from them. I have never seen mangosteen juice made from the peels in Thailand or Cambodia. I was under the impression that the references on your site and on the links were referring to the juice from the mangosteen fruit which is very tasty. I checked out the link on your site at

www.mangosteenexperiences.com

Here is a quote from their site. They mention the fruit, not the peel.

"It took American and German ingenuity to come up with the answer. A botanical expert from Utah ran across the fruit several years ago in a Thailand restaurant. It tasted delicious. After researching the benefits of the fruit, he contacted the world's most respected botanical beverage company, Wild Flavors, (produces SoBe, Capri Sun, Misty, Etc.) a multi-billion Co., out of Heidelberg, Germany to solve the manufacturing challenge."

[One paragraph with personal information only has been deleted.]

Peace to you and yours!

Sincerely,
Ken Presner

I subsequently received 2 emails from Fraser Doerksen. My comments are embedded in his messages. I have not yet received a reply from Fraser Doerksen.

Fraser Doerksen's second email:

Fraser Doerksen:

Hello again Mr. Presner,

To appease my father, I've moved the website to a new domain (myzapper.com) and redirected the ultimatezapper domain to it.

Ken Presner:

I appreciate this gesture. I just checked this out. The new link (myzapper.com) leads the visitor back to bestzapper.com.

Fraser Doerksen:

Hopefully you won't be confused when you see the change.

Ken Presner:

I'm not confused at all.

Sincerely, Fraser D.

Fraser Doerksen's first email:

Fraser Doerksen:

Mr. Presner,

I am the webmaster and sole owner of the ultimatezapper.com domain. You might want to re-read the first sentence again, and then fire the hack who does your fact-checking;

Ken Presner:

Only your father's name and photo appear on this site. It is clear that the fact of your ownership is being hidden from view. Since this fact is not published on ultimatezapper.com why would one even think of checking it? The hack who does my fact-checking? Well, I guess I'll have to fire myself. Since your father's picture is on the ultimatezapper.com site, since there is a link that is called Arthur's Story, and since the links lead back to his Auto-Zap site, and since he talks about his new updated site I assumed that the site was his. That is what all the indications were and still are, in my opinion. There is no indication at all that anyone else owns the site. Why would one logically assume otherwise? There is no mention of you anywhere on the site. Since your father did not deny the site was his when he replied to me was I to logically assume the the contrary, that site did not belong to him when I saw his picture on the site, his story and the links back to bestzapper.com? Was my assumption a reasonable one or not? Do only a hacks make such logical assumptions? Will you be letting people know that you own the site and are working on it with the knowledge and approval of your father? This is what I would call being honest and up front with the public. [I have recently done an internet check to find out the name of the person who owns the domain name www.ultimatezapper.com. A Google search comes up blank. There appears to be no way to find out the name of the individual who owns a particular domain name.]

Fraser Doerksen:

You're clearly not getting your money's worth.

Ken Presner:

For what, exactly. I am not clear about what you mean here.

Fraser Doerksen:

While you're at it, ditch the moron who manufactures your conspiracy theories too.

Ken Presner:

What moron are you referring to? Using such inflammatory language does not touch me in the least. You are not dealing with a lightweight when you talk to me, I will have you understand that. So please disabuse yourself of that notion very quickly, if you are of such a mind. What conspiracy theories are you referring to? Could you possibly be referring to the dental mercury industry or the medical extablishment, including the ADA? Or are you referring to something else? Please let me know. I am the moron behind everything on my site, so I may have to fire myself again.

Fraser Doerksen:

Ultimatezapper.com is a test site, owned by me.

Ken Presner:

I don't understand. What is this site testing? Is it testing its ability to use the name of my zapper and my site in a theoretical way, for no specific purpose at all, or is it testing its ability to use the name of my zapper and my site for a specific reason, with future plans in mind. Please elucidate this for me.

Fraser Doerksen:

Arthur OK'd some articles.

Ken Presner:

Oh, so he actually did know about the site and he approved of some of the content. It was not as though you were using his name and his photo and his story and the links to his site on your own without his approval.

Fraser Doerksen:

but he didn't put up the site, he has no hand in running it, and he has absolutely nothing to do with the choice of the site name. I did that, and I'm quite happy with it.

Ken Presner:

In other words you are acting as a self-appointed agent to promote his site, working on his behalf with his full knowledge. Why are you happy about the choice of the site name ultimatezapper.com? Is it because you thought up such an original name, because you wanted to tweek my interest, or because you wanted to use my name for your father's benefit? With all the possible site names to choose from you chose the name of my zapper and my site. Did you expect me to lie down and keep quiet? I can imagine that you are happy about the name because it's a great name, to be sure, the name I took 12 years ago, but morally it's my name, not yours and not your father's, even if you did purchase the domain name. I have purchased the domain name The Ultimate Zapper.

Fraser Doerksen:

It's a mock-up,

Ken Presner:

A mock-up for what purpose? I think it's pretty clear who you are trying to mock when you use the phrase "so-called Ultimate Zapper" on your site.

Fraser Doerksen:

the address was given out to less than 10 customers in the past 3 months for feedback purposes, and aside from some broken links (and many missing articles) it's been quite the success.

Ken Presner:

"The success" at what, exactly? I found the site and it was never given out to me.

Fraser Doreksen:

Since it's only the second website I've ever made, I considered it prudent to limit the exposure until I could transfer the website to a proper hosting service and hopefully, eventually, replace bestzapper's current design.

Ken Presner:

What domain name and what zapper name do you intend to use when you host it? Since you are apparently in business with your father are you planning on using the name ultimatezapper.com when you replace bestzapper.com's design? Are you planning on renaming the Auto-Zap the Ultimate Zapper? You are happy about the domain name ultimatezapper.com. Are you planning to using the words "ultimate zapper" in any way on your new site? Will they replace "Rolls Royce"?

Fraser Doerksen:

We will optimize the content for the search engines when all the features (shopping cart, etc.) are working as intended. To be perfectly clear, the domain name itself has no intrinsic value, and no SEO value; any rank amateur would realize that.

Ken Presner:

Yes, I realize full well that it has no SEO value, as yet. A rank amateur? I probably am in many ways, but aren't we all? Please answer the following questions for me. Do the results that my zapper has achieved these past 12 years fall under your category of "rank amateur"? Have you read the testimonials on my site? Are these results what one would call inferior results from an inferior zapper? Would you say that my story of recovery from 2 incurable diseases also falls under your category of "rank amateur"? How many people do you know who have done the same thing? Does the work that I do from my site helping people from all over the world also fall under your category of "rank amateur"? If the answer to all these questions is yes then I consider the words "rank amateur" a compliment for which I thank you.

Fraser Doerksen:

The reason I chose it: it's an apt description of Arthur's Professional Auto-Zap zapper, which, contrary to your fact-checker's poorly conceived notions, has seen several advances over its lifetime.

Ken Presner

I am the poor fact-checker. Like your father, I stand by my technical assessments. Aside from the lower frequency he has added nothing to the Auto-Zap that makes it a more effective zapper. The advances he has made are functions which I call "bells and whistles". They are not substantive advances that make for a more effective zapper. I explain on my site why the advances I have made to The Ultimate Zapper create a more effective zapper. The testimonials back that up very strongly.

Fraser Doerksen:

Just like BestZapper, the domain name ultimatezapper is a generic description

Ken Presner:

Generic in the technical sense, yes. But you still have not admitted that of all the domain names you could have chosen you purposely chose the name of my zapper and my site. Your credibility is not quite 100% on this point. I believe that your father chose the name bestzapper.com for a very good reason. He did not draw it out of a hat. I assume that you chose the name ultimatezapper.com for a very good reason, too.

Fraser Doerksen:

of a product which has set the gold standard for zappers worldwide.

Ken Presner:

What does "gold standard" mean? Can you please explain this to me specifically? Your opinion, to which you are entitled, is not completely unbiased. Others may not be in total agreement with you.

Fraser Doerksen:

The words "ultimate zapper" are not trademarked (nor trademarkable, see sections 9 and 12 of the Trade-Mark Act here:

http://laws.justice.gc.ca/en/T-13/index.html), just as "reliable car" or "great house construction" aren't trademarked; this makes the ultimatezapper domain well suited for my purposes.

Ken Presner:

I know that zapper names are not trade-markable. That is entirely beside the point. You chose the name ultimatezapper.com precisely because it is "well suited for [your] purposes". That is very clear. But you have not explained in detail what your purposes are?

Fraser Doerksen:

For somebody who claims more a modicum of intellect,

Ken Presner:

Please let me know where I make this claim explicitly? I don't seem to recall. Or do you mean that this is an implicit claim that people might infer after reading my site and after reading my story?

Fraser Doerksen:

you've nicely bungled every single point in your ranting letter.

Ken Presner:

What exactly do you mean by "nicely bungled every single point"? Please be specific. I think I covered every point very well.

Fraser Doerksen:

I particularly enjoyed the part wherein you claimed that Google is an arbiter of truth.

Ken Presner:

I don't recall making that statement. If I am wrong please correct me, with a specific reference. What I did say was that Google is not stupid. I stand by that assessment.

Fraser Doerksen:

That paragraph furnished many hearty laughs.

Ken Presner:

I'm always glad when I can make people laugh.

Fraser Doerksen:

To touch on another point you mentioned: as you've already seen, we haven't done any SEO on our websites. Nearly all of our business comes through personal referrals from satisfied customers including Dr. Clark and her clinic. Internet business is currently only a fraction of our total output.

Ken Presner:

I'm glad to hear your business is flourishing in this way.

Fraser Doerksen:

We use the internet primarily to inform our customers and to provide easily referenced information regarding Dr. Hulda Clark and her research. You might think Arthur chose this website domain name to steal customers from you, but the facts remain: 1. Arthur has nothing to do with it,

Ken Presner:

Oh, I see. He didn't steal my name. You did. I will make this correction on my site.

Fraser Doerksen:

and 2. a rudimentary check with Alexa or any SEO service should show you that nobody searches for ultimatezapper anyways.

Ken Presner:

I know very well that few people search for zappers using "ultimate zapper" as keywords. That is not the point. My point is a moral one, your stealing the name of my zapper and my site.

Fraser Doerksen:

Also, despite your rant to the contrary (do you even believe that nonsense yourself?)

Ken Presner:

Which nonsense are you specifically referring to?

Fraser Doerksen:

many links on ultimatezapper.com are broken because (surprise, surprise!) it's a TEST SITE. I'm glad you've taken an interest but it simply isn't ready for widespread use yet.

Ken Presner:

That's apparent. But it is also apparent that you intend to do more with this Test Site. It is not simply an intellectual pursuit.

Fraser Doerksen:

Have you seen any links to ultimatezapper.com from BestZapper? No?

Ken Presner:

Of course not. It is obvious why not. Because it is a ghost site. Having a link from a real site back to a ghost site would make no sense at all.

Fraser Doerksen:

Maybe you should ask yourself why,

Ken Presner:

Don't worry. I have.

Fraser Doerksen:

and then reconsider your theory about PageRank jealousy

Ken Presner:

Page rank is a matter of fact. I hold the #1 Google ranking for zappers, so it is obvious that it is not I who have anything to be jealous about.

Fraser Doerksen:

... I haven't submitted it to any search engines, haven't sent out any newsletters, haven't advertised it - indeed, more of a "ghost site" than you'd imagined. I hope you get the gist.

Ken Presner:

I know very well the extent to which this is a ghost site.

Fraser Doerksen:

In point of fact my father (Arthur Doerksen, the guy you have ignorantly slagged in your poorly conceived rant)

Ken Presner:

Unfortunately you brought my response on yourself by not explaining to me or on your ultimatezapper.com site what you are now explaining in this message. You have only yourself to blame for the response that your actions elicited, which you characterize as a "rant" and which I characterize as a passionate and cogent reply to a clear moral offense.

Fraser Doerksen:

asked me, long ago, to offer the domain to you.

Ken Presner:

You should have considered his request more seriously at the time.

Fraser Doerksen:

I have no idea why, and after your shenanigans, I must confess further ignorance of the reasons for his kindness toward you.

Ken Presner:

I also have kind feelings toward your father. At the age of 58 we have both been through a lot in life and compasssion is what we have both learned to offer others. The differences I have with him and with you are strictly on the professional plane. I harbor absolutely no personal ill will.

Fraser Doerksen:

I would consider letting you have the domain if you posted a public apology

Ken Presner:

An apology for what, exactly? Please explain. If you and your father posted a public apology on his bestzapper.com website and your ultimatezapper.com website (now the myzapper.com website) and you changed the references to ultimate zapper on your ghost site to the so-called "Ultimate Zapper" when referring to my zapper I might take you up on that.

Fraser Doerksen:

and take the time to check your facts in future,

Ken Presner:

I would request that you do the same. From my point of view, when the facts are well hidden from view, as in the case of who owns the ultimatezapper.com site (which you have just changed to the myzapper.com site) it is not obvious that one should assume the contrary, that someone other than the person mentioned on the site owns that site, let alone to begin searching for evidence to support that contrary notion. Did you ever think that anyone but me owns my site?

Fraser Doerksen:

but until that day (which I believe will never arrive) the domain remains my plaything and I shall do with it as I please.

Ken Presner:

That is your prerogative.

Fraser Doerksen:

Your ridiculous, unresearched opinions mean less than nothing to me.

Ken Presner:

Which opinions are you referring to? Please let me know. To tell you the truth I am not overly concerned that my opinions mean nothing to you. I haven't lost any sleep over this.

Fraser Doerksen:

If I remember correctly, my Dad is the same guy who had you over for tea many years ago & attempted to explain the "skin effect" and why our zapper has a lower frequency, and why it is more effective. You didn't listen very well, as evidenced by your blatantly untutored "explanations" for the "innovations" you've "invented."

Ken Presner:

Yes, I remember very well the visit with your father and mother and their kindness. I know we talked about zappers and other things but to tell you the truth I don't remember all the content of our conversation in detail. After all that was 12 years ago. When your father corrected me a few years back about a statement I made on my site about having been the first one to create a lower frequency zapper I took that statement off my site. It was an honest mistake on my part which I freely admit. You are entitled to your opinions about my "untutored" explanations for the innovations I have made to my zapper. But, like your father, I stand by my technical assesments and by my explanations. They may be "untutored" in your opinion, but that opinion may not be shared by everyone. No matter what you say about my zapper and my site you will never be able to refute the amazing results people are getting with my zapper. There will be more important news about these results in the months to come. Rank amateur? Well, I think a lot of people would disagree with you. If I am in the "amateur" category there are people who are certainly very happy about that, according to their testimonials. They might, in fact, place me rather high up in that amateur category if they were asked, much to your chagrin and displeasure. The rank of amateur and professional are totally irrelevant, in my opinion. The only thing that matters are results when it comes to zappers and for people who are looking for relief. It is clear that people are getting superior results with The Ultimate zapper despite the fact that I am an inventor who is not a professional electrical engineer. Dr. Hulda Clark, the inventor of the original zapper, is not a professional engineer, nor is her son, Geoff.

Fraser Doerksen:

Arthur also explained how to lower the frequency in Dr. Clark's reference design. I can imagine your surprise and delight when, after twiddling with the other bits and pieces of your home-built zapper, you found a way to alter the duty cycle too.

Ken Presner:

No more delighted than when Dr. Clark twiddled with her ideas and came up with the original zapper. She is not a professional engineer, you know, so I wonder what rank she merits from you? Is she a rank amateur or a better-than-rank amateur?

Fraser Doerksen:

Is it funny, or just sad that you're now claiming to have "innovated" these features?

Ken Presner:

It is a fact that I innovated the 100% positive pulses, 10.5 constant volts, an undistorted square wave, the 2,000 Hertz frequency, and a unique way to create a Super Stabilized wave, to the possible dismay of the Dr. Clark Research Association that claims this feature exclusively for themselves. These are irrefutable facts, alas. Oh, by the way, have you emailed the Dr. Clark Research Association about their using Dr. Clark's name rather blatantly and misleadingly, and for their making false medical claims about their zapper, for which they were convicted in court? Or is your rancor reserved only for the far more important transgressions, in your opinion, of the maker of The Ultimate Zapper.

Fraser Doerksen:

I leave it as an exercise to the reader to discern.

Ken Presner:

So do I. And I have no fear at all about what readers discern. I created my zapper and my website 12 years ago. I receive dozens of emails everyday, 365 days a year, and I take special pride in the replies from people who have been helped by using The Ultimate Zapper, and by following some of my suggestions. Would you like to call them liars in public, or only in private?

Fraser Doerksen:

Ken, you are *not* an inventor, *not* an innovator, and clearly *not* an honest person with any shred of integrity of your own.

Ken Presner:

Well, there's nothing like getting personal, is there. Your comments do not touch me in the least. The fact that I am an inventor and an innovator is clear for all to see from the statements on my website. I did not invent the zapper concept or the original zapper. I make no statement on my site inferring that I did. That is very clear. I give Dr. Hulda Clark full credit for her invention and her research on my site. But I did invent The Ultimate Zapper, thanks to her inspiration. On the contrary, I don't milk her name like some sites do in order to promote sales. My assessment of her accomplishments is a very balanced one, which has been noted by many of my readers. Integrity? Please email me the names of all the people you know who have dedicated their life to helping others, who have helped thousands of people over the past 12 years through their experience of having overcome 2 incurable diseases, MS and Crohn's disease, and and who have been able to help thousands of people overcome illness with the help of a modest electronic invention they invented. I await your reply. It is clear from the email I receive that people who have compared my zapper with many others, including the Auto-Zap, find my zapper superior. Not an inventor? Not an innovator? My satisfied customers, among whom are counted many medical practitioners, would respectfully disagree, I'm sure. Not "an honest person with any shred of integrity of [my] own"? With all due respect, you are obviously too young and foolish, and too filled with anger over what I have written on my Competition page, to know what you are saying. You have obviously not read my site dispassionately and closely enough to find out about the person you are talking to. If you had you would have shown me respect instead of contempt in your message. As a parting comment I will quote my dear departed father in the hope that one day you will realize the folly of your own words: "Son, your beard of wisdom will grow".

Fraser Doerksen:

You stand on the shoulders of giants yet have the ill grace to shamelessly badmouth Dr. Clark and my father, who still regards you as a "friend" of sorts.

Ken Presner:

And I regard him as a friend, as well. He invited me to tea [in his email]when I visit Vancouver [in the future}, and I would be glad to share a cup with him. My differences with him are professional, not personal. I have a tribute to Dr. Clark on my site. She was a true innovator and those of us who have followed in her footsteps are grateful for her research. But I do not worship her. Her methodology is often less than scientific, in my opinion. I do not agree with her use of the word "cure" and the evidence that she has presented for those "cures". I consider these comments direct and to the point. I do not consider them "badmouthing" and I have yet to hear from a single reader of my site who considers them as such. I do not consider your father a giant, nor do I consider myself one. I consider myself very fortunate, and a very hard worker. I severely criticized your father on my site because of what I read on the ultimatezapper.com site. I would never have done such a thing as stealing the name of someone else's zapper and their website name, even as a test. I now understand, from what you are saying in your email, that you are responsible for this, with the foreknowledge of your father. I will make this correction on the Competition page of my site.

Fraser Doerksen:

You disgust me.

Ken Presner:

Well, that's not exactly news. You need a box of Kleenex to wipe away the comtempt. Your disgust doesn't touch me. It's like water off the proverbial duck's back. You brought my response on yourself by stealing the name of my zapper and my site. My response to your actions gave you the opportunity to express your opinions about me and my zapper.

Fraser Doerksen:

Hopefully I've cleared up some issues for you,

Ken Presner:

Yes, you have. There are many things that are very clear now, abundantly clear.

Fraser Doerksen:

and mayhap you've even learned something here.

Ken Presner:

I certainly have.

Fraser Doerksen:

I hope you will someday assume less, and pay more attention to the facts.

Ken Presner:

I would like to say the very same thing to you.

Fraser Doerksen:

For future reference, if you have anything meaningful or constructive to say, you can reach me through the "contact" form on ultimatezapper.com;

Ken Presner:

And if you have anything meaningful and constructive to say about me or my so-called "Ultimate Zapper" [the way my zapper is referred to on the ultimatezapper.com website] you can email me at kenpresner@yahoo.com

Fraser Doerksen:

I've been quite busy lately (within the last month, I have moved to a new city, bought a new house, and married my sweetheart - hence zero website updates) but do I make a point of checking the email regularly.

Ken Presner:

I do too.

Sincerely,

Sincerely,

THE SINCEREST FORM OF FLATTERY

Below is the serise of updates that I originally posted to this page concerning the ultimatezapper.com ghost site.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. I'm truly flattered that Arthur Doerksen has gone to the trouble of stealing the name of my zapper and my website to create an Ultimate Zapper website all his own, a ghost site designed to draw customers looking for my site to his own site so that he can draw business away from my site and increase his business. Please read my open letter to him, below. It is long, but well worth reading. His new site can be found at ultimatezapper.com. There is nothing new or different on this ghost site from what you find on his bestzapper.com site, except for the links that lead back to his old site where he is selling the same old 1995 Auto-Zap zapper that he has been selling for the past 12 years, the basic Hulda Clark model, with a lower frequency added. The main thing that strikes the eye when reading about his Auto-Zap is all the "bells and whistles" that are added added for distraction: a low battery indicator, a timer and an alert bepper, none of which adds a single thing to the effectiveness of his zapper. I write about Arthur's "bells and whistles", in the 12 additional serious issues below my open letter.

I emailed Arthur a few weeks back congratulating him on his courage in developing this new site, using my name. Within a few days the site was down. It was no longer available. But when I recently tried to access it again there was a message that Arthur's Ultimate Zapper ghost site was coming back after January 27, 2007. I waited with baited breath to see what tricks Arthur might have up his sleeve.

Update on April 1, 2007.

I received an email from Arthur Doerksen's son, Fraser, a couple if days ago. He states that it is he who owns the ultimatezapper.com domain name, not his father, and that it was his idea, not his father's, to create the ultimatezapper.com site to promote his father's Auto-Zap zapper. He mentions in his email that his father approved of a number of the articles for the new site, which he, Fraser, is in the process of developing into a full website, not merely a ghost site. I quote Fraser Doerksen from his message: "To appease my father, I've moved the website to a new domain (myzapper.com) and redirected the ultimatezapper domain to it...", in effect saying that he will no longer be using the name ultimatezapper.com for his new site. I sent a reply to Fraser letting him know that I appreciate this gesture. I will be making a report about these new events, including both Arthur's and Fraser's recent emails, in the near future. I am very glad to report that what was stolen has been returned to its rightful owner. The name of my zapper and my website are now back where they belong.  

If Fraser Doerksen lives up to his word and does not use my name in the future I will report this here and I will be glad to remove any unsubstantive issues related to the Auto-Zap from this page because the current dispute will have become irrevant and devoting space to it here will have become a moot point. I sincerely hope that this will be the case.

Update on March 21, 2007

I received a very kind email from Arthur Doerksen today after informing him that I had uploaded an open letter to him on this page. He makes no mentions about stealing the name of my zapper and my site for commercial advantage. Among other things he does state is that his Auto-Zap contains CMOS circuitry, not a CMOS chip. The Ultimate Zapper contains a TTL chip that has a higher voltage rating. Arthur also states that he stands by his "technical assessments". But he doesn't state what technical assessments he is referring to. I guess that vagueness serves a useful purpose at this point in time since it would be very hard to criticize both the merits of my zapper and the results that people have been obtaining with it for 12 years.

I stand by the statements I make about his Auto-Zap zapper and his websites. They are clearly stated on this page.

Update on March 20, 2007

Arthur's new ghost site has been up and running for over a month now. It features a "question of the day". In one month there have been only 2 "questions of the day" uploaded to the site. Soon he'll have to rename this site feature "question of the month".

Arthur has a new link on his ghost site called "Order the Zapper". When you click on it you are taken, surprise, surprise, to his real website at bestzapper.com. On his ghost site it doesn't say "Order The Ultimate Zapper", it says "Order the Zapper". I wonder why? Ultimate Zapper is the name of his new site, isn't it? It's very odd that the order link should take you to a zapper with name that is different from the name of his "new" site. When you click on the order link on my site it doesn't take you to another site with a different zapper name. It takes you to my order page where you can order The Ultimate Zapper from The Ultimate Zapper website. That's a very simple concept. It's known as honesty.

Update on March 6, 2007. Arthur's Ultimate Zapper ghost site features a logo called "Auto-Zap Pro" on the top left of the front page. Below the logo Arthur says "There is no substitute." Well, he certainly got that correct. His ghost site is called www.ultimatezapper.com. There is no substitute for The Real Ultimate Zapper which I have been making since 1996, and for the real Ultimate Zapper website that I have had since 1996. But there are lots of substitutes for Arthur's Auto-Zap which has only one feature that distinguishes it from the original 1995 Hulda Clark model, a lower frequency of 2,500 Hertz which is also featured in The Ultimate Zapper. All the other so-called features of Arthur's zapper are what I call "bells and whistles". Please read below for a detailed explanation about Arthur's bells and whistles. The Ultimate Zapper has 11 unique features, making it truly the best zapper in the world. It has no bells and no whistles.

Update on February 20, 2007. Arthur's Ultimate Zapper ghost site is now up and running. It states "We've upgraded & revamped the zapper website to get you what you want, faster than ever!" Well, it certainly gets you what Arthur wants, faster than ever: it gets you back to his bestzapper website lickety-split. And it does so by using the name of my zapper and my site. This is a truly creative marketing scheme. There is a slight hint of deception in all this.

When you click on "Our Products" it takes you back to Arthur's old Auto-Zap site. Arthur's ghost site has a new link called "New zapper website". When you click on the link it takes you to a new page with another link called "Find the latest zapper information here." When you click on that link you reach a page that says "The page you are trying to access does not exist. Please select a page from the main menu." Yes, the page with zapper information about his Ultimate Zapper does not exist because his "Ultimate Zapper" does not exist. Arthur Doerksen has created the first Ghost Ultimate Zapper in the world.

If you want to see a really upgraded and revamped website, you're looking at it now. I have upgraded and revised a lot of my site this month, especially the front page and the Competition page. It reads more like a book than a web page. But the index above enables you to click directly to the sections that you want to read so that you don't have to scroll down all 92 book pages of the Competition page to find things.

The Ultimate Zapper is mine. I invented it in 1996. I will always will be mine. I have no intention of playing any games with Arthur Doerksen by taking his name to create a ghost site to try to draw people away from his site to increase business on my site. I won't be creating an Auto-Zap ghost site anytime soon. Or anytime, for that matter. Doing such a thing never even occurred to me. I'm far too busy putting my energy into productive work. I leave such devious undertakings to others. Arthur must have a lot of time on his hands. I wonder how his ministry is going.  I note that he says on his site that he zaps while reading his Bible every morning. My motto is "practice what you preach". Real Christians don't covet what belongs to their neighbor and they don't steal. Those are the 8th and 10th Commandments, if I remember correctly.

Most of the work I do, and have done for the past 12 years, is free of charge, disseminating information to one and all who request it. My site now comprises over 30 pages of information about health. Some of those pages run up to 150 actual book pages. This is how I spend my time, working on my site and helping others via email, not trying to figure out "special" ways to increase business. Integrity has always been the foundation of what I do. That integrity is based on my having recovered from 2 "incurable" diseases, helping others 365 days a year through the experience I have accumulated, and through my invention, The Ultimate Zapper, which is truly the best zapper in the world. I imagine it must irk some professional electrical engineers, like Arthur Doerksen, that a researcher and inventor like myself could come up with a zapper that is far superior to the so-called professional models out there. I can understand their frustration. But Hulda Clark is not an electrical engineer, either, and that did not prevent her from inventing the original zapper.

Incidently, regarding Arthur's stealing the name of my zapper, it has been The Ultimate Zapper since I invented it in 1996. It has never been Ultimate Zapper, as Arthur has named his ghost site. I have bought the domain name www.theultimatezapper.com and my affiliate program will be up and running soon from my new Ultimate Zapper site. When anyone refers people to my new site, if they purchase The New Improved Ultimate Zapper both the person buying my zapper and the perso
