The first person who goes around during a Sandy#2 and charges people's laptops and mobile phones with a portable CF-device is going to do a lot more to convince people it's a "everyday useful energy-source" than any amount of comments on SciAm or elsewhere.
People want a real-life useful thing. I've tried to tell many about Free Energy devices, and they're always like: "Well, can I power my stove with it?", which is a valid question from a real-life use point-of-view. A question without an answer, unfortunately.
