Did you not see the picture?

The guy should definately turn it on ... right after posting the plans to the internet if he is that worried about black helicopter stuff.

That's what Keanu Reaves did with his hydrogen refinement process.

I love a good demented cackle.

What would you think about turning turkey waste, chicken waste, used tires, or sewage into oil, fertilizer, and water?

I would think "Gee, I like my current job just fine."

[Revolting cat!]

Perpetuum mobile at last! I've always known it is possible, but noooooooooooooo, you wouldn't lissen! Magnets, I tell you, the future's in magnets.

[Redcloak]

Indeed, I did not.

(We may need a "kree" list for these sorts of things.)

The N-Machine is more of a modern version of Faraday's Rotating-Magnet Electrical Generator (homopolar).

ENough with the hate speech, already!

[Tealc]

LOL!!! Brilliant!

Tesla...I wouldnt so quickly write this stuff off.

Remember that blackout in the Northeast last year?

There was a guy on C2CAM that mentioned a story he heard about a secret US-UK government lab in Canada that fired up a BF Telsa coil
and caused the blackout by sucking in so much "free energy" that it started blackout by overloading the grid.

Right...

Have you duplicated cold fusion in your workshop?

Bump for later read

Bump for later.

MMMRUUUHAHAHAHAHA! [demented cackle]

Your post kind of reminds me. I was going to expand my website's Holy Warrior Idiot article to talk about Rathergate.

"...calcium carbide, which, when mixed with water, produces acetylene gas, which, when combined with oxygen (in the air), forms an explosive mixture."

- Thanks for the clarification. It was many years ago that I heard this story so parts of it must be hazy. Anyway, I wonder what with the new products now available and on the market such as carbon fiber, heat absorbing ceramics and new alloys, if it might be possible to design an engine which could run on this fuel without suffering the damage that would otherwise be caused by corrosion.

[longshadow]

it might be possible to design an engine which could run on this fuel without suffering the damage that would otherwise be caused by corrosion.

Perhaps, but I doubt acetylene is a cost-effective fuel.... since it detonates at 2 atmospheres pressure, one can hardly design an engine with much compression, and a large compression ratio is very important for maximizing thermal efficiency.

Yikes! Don't these people realize that turning these things on risks the creation of a Free Energy Resonance Field which would cause our solar system to collapse to the size of a grape? Where do they think black holes come from? No wonder the government confiscates them. Sheesh!

[VadeRetro]

Calcium carbide is also the fuel of the "carbide cannon" long sold in comic books alongside the Charles Atlas dynamic tension bodybuilding program, the whoopee cushion, and the naughty glasses that supposedly let you see through clothing.

"i'd put it in a category including turning lead to gold."

That's really not that hard, you know. Just subtract a few protons and there you have it.

"The U.S. Patent office automatically denies a patent to any gizmo which purports to produce more energy than it consumes, on the grounds that its personnel are not equipped to evaluate such claims."

The U.S. Patent Office examiners are not qualified to evaluate any claims. Patents are granted on devices which defy Newton's laws of motion. Patents became worthless the day they stopped requiring working models; the explanation was that they were 'out of warehouse space' in which to store the models!
