I think the hydrogen atom is the answer for that too.

Not entirely correct. The problem is that traditional Ptolemaic theories continued to explain the observed movements of the planets more efficiently than Copernican theory did. A guy named Kepler had already cracked this about this time, but Galileo rejected his theories, probably because they weren't invented by Galileo. But this didn't prove that the Earth revolved around the Sun.
What Galileo proved pretty conclusively is that not everything revolved around the Earth, as through his telescope you could see moons revolving around Jupiter.
BTW, Copernican theory merely moved the center of the universe from the Earth to the Sun. It was not nearly as modern as the general perception is.
That proves the theory. Even articles about the theory can reproduce themselves...
The power company is giving you nothing. Electrons actually flow back to the power company. In essence, when you turn on a light, they are sucking the dark out of your house and charging you for it :)
Hmmmmmmm. $50 M. I wonder if he's hiring?...
The benefits from such research, if the claims are true, would be earth shattering.
It would mean:
-Good-bye oil, and hello water!
-Good-bye OPEC and Hugo, and hello water!
-Liberals would no longer accuse republicans of waging "wars for oil"..
-Sending the OPEC countries and Hugos back into the stone ages and towards asking certain countries for handouts.
Wow, the benefits would be endless, so let's hope the research is true.
So, because it would be so beneficial and mean so many good things from it, I think the research is too good to be true.
Nah. Probably paying to himself and his friends as a "salary."
"If he has such a nifty theory, why hasn't he proved it and built a device to exploit it, esp. if someone has funded him to the tune $50m.
"
Well, see...the deal is...he hasn't gotten all the people he wants to invest in this. He'd like to get some more money before he disappears into the woodwork when his little invention is proven to be bogus.
I mean, he has a company and everything. How could he be wrong?
By the way, I'm thinking about reviving an old ornithopter company I read about. Fly like a bird! It's revolutionary. You can get in on the ground floor for an investment of as little as $10,000. Just imagine yourself flying through the sky with no propellors or jet engines...just a pair of silently flapping wings.
Bypass the traffic jams! Fly over the freeways and land lightly on the roof of the building where you work! Soar as free as a bird!
ACT NOW! We have a limited number of Founding Investor opportunities!
"An astronomer named Nicolaus Copernicus challenged that idea in about 1543. He soon recognized that Earth orbits around the sun. And about 1608, Italian Astronomer Galileo Galilei, made his first telescope, that scientists had firm evidence that Corpernicus was right."
Are you sure??

I did! I did!
"With today's lightweight composites, it should be a snap!"
It was a joke. I take it you didn't laugh.
AH! So That's why I had this overpowering sense of deja vu as I was reading! '-)
