I don't think I ever heard of reversing inertia so that is a new one. In a Science Fiction Series from the 30's, the Lensmen Series by Doc E.E. Smith had the concept of an Inertialess
Drive to propel their Starships. Thus his thinking was without inertia, the ships could go faster...
This was the 30's....
Let's see... if the notion of inertia were to change sign. The effects of Gravity would be reversed as
well. Thus Anti-Gravity is then simply Inertia Reversal. This could be kewl.
Interesting.
