I automatically reject anything which 1. appears to violate extremely simple laws of thermodynamics 2. is supported by testimonial, rather than hard data. 3. doesn't currently sell power to the grid with the device, even though claims are made of power
production. I guess I just have a lower tolerance for fraud, or at least a higher standard for proof. D. Mindock wrote: > Bob, > You have your mind set already to reject this.
