Where in the World is all the Free Energy?

Wow, I hadn't really thought it through before. But now that you mention it, if somebody honestly believes in perpetual motion machines and this conviction cannot be shaken by any degree of argument or evidence, then he eventually must construct some wildly hilarious corollaries to account for the fact that practically no one on earth agrees with him. Of course his mere neighbors can be mere dupes of the collosal System. But everyone with access to two magnets and a coil must either be in on the conspiracy or a victim of relentless and all instrusive sabotage. Naturally, the true believer's own attempts to generate all the free energy he needs for himself by personally following the prescribed methods with two magnets and a coil are prevented by electro-magnetic transmissions from the Orbital Mind Control Lasers directed exactly at his work bench each time he sets up his experiment. Funded, undoubtedly, by the vicious System, which continually keeps tabs on his heretical views lest its Profits evaporate, if he were only able to get two magnets and a coil to behave "naturally". All Wreckers! Wreckers everywhere!

In March 1989, two chemists, Martin Fleischmann and Stanley Pons, from Brigham Young University, Utah (USA),

Wrong! It was University of Utah - NOT Brigham Young University. Duh...

[sharktrager]

I just checked. It's not under my desk.

You present a good case for your alleged senario above.
But I'm just a moron(like most people I know) liveing here in the hopes God is'nt a moron. Other than that, I'm not too impressed with mankinds achievements so far. Sure we invented cheese cake but theres got to be something bad about it. Still reseaching. Saved this thread.

Cold fusion has been confirmed, but is held up generally because of fraud,
including that which happened in 1989 at MIT's Plasma Fusion Laboratory.

As this is posted, the Federal Appellate Court (Federal Circuit) is covering up the effort of several individuals to obtain US patents on their work
even as competitors outside of the US have received their patents from their countries.

The Federal Appellate Court should be FReeped until they demand the US Constitution is followed
which as of today, it is not.

Oh!
Upon inventing my first petpetual motion machine(when I was 9). My daddy did'nt laugh but merely told me that you could'nt get more horsepower out than you put in. Something about a formula, you know some math kind of thing. Well, after suffering some drain bamage from trying I stopped trying.

Tell you what dennisw, if you can show me a working model ( that I can test ) that produces more energy than it consumes I will give you one million dollars. Furthermore I will get a group of investors together to finance production and distribution.

Looking forward to working with you :)

I am holding my breath in anticipation ( to not pollute ).

I can put this guy in contact with a refugee Nigerian Colonel who may have enough money to fund him.

[Behind Liberal Lines]

Air, rain and sunlight come to mind. But I'm sure they're working on it.

But even those require some sort of capital outlay to be successfully used.

[razorback-bert]

So, why are the Greenies building and using these wondeful devices?

[nightdriver]

"How can he sell it if it's free?"

It ain't free to you and me. If he can produce it for nothing, think of the percentage markup he can charge and still undercut our local utilities!

Why, if what he says is true, he's sitting on a veritable gold mine!! (smirk)

[Tijeras_Slim]

What, no mention of Orgone energy accumulators?

They're all hidden under pyramids, and Wilhelm Reich escaped in his flying car.

[Chemist_Geek]

What, did they want Helmholtz or Gibbs free energy? We can't ship the order until they fill out the packing slip completely, and then there's the M.S.D.S. issue...

Ahh, I'm hoping for a Friday science humor thread...

[Chemist_Geek]

Other than that, I'm not too impressed with mankinds achievements so far. Sure we invented cheese cake but theres got to be something bad about it. Still reseaching.

What? There couldn't possibly be anything bad with...

Humanity's research continued, and produced another High Form of Food, nearly rising to match the level of Greek mythical Nectar...

[thesharkboy]

Young lady! In this house, we obey the laws of thermodynamics!

[DoughtyOne]

Yes, but once the capital outlay is complete, the additional expenditures are minimal. Those who have river front property can sometimes set up a mill too. Same idea. I believe there are natural sources of energy that when understood will one day provide caparitively free energy to everyone.

[polemikos]

Somebody decided to attach a hot wire to their tin foil hat.

[weikel]

Most of this is junk science unfortunately.

ROTFLMAO that was a classic Simpsons moment.
