In light of all the economic headlines, a little something else to wrap your head around seemed appropriate…

Quote of the Day:

“Nowadays people know the price of everything – and the value of nothing…”

      1. Since you’re fixing links
        # Einstein’s forgotten green refrigerator.
        # If only it were as simple as a European game of Frogger.

        are both linked to Einstein’s fridge story (which is quite interesting after looking at teh patent) 🙂

        1. Er… sorry
          I’ve no idea what link Turner meant to use for the Frogger story 🙁

  1. …Because Kansas is goin’ bye bye
    Oh, yeah! I fraking LOVE that quote! 😉

    So interesting to see how the scientists believe you need a 27-km machine to see the Universe as fields of energy; when according to Castañeda (let’s not start over with that one!) you only needed to shift your “assemblage point” with practice & meditation… and the occasional power plant ingestion to jolt your body 😉

    It’s like Alchemy: Scientists agree that chemical elements CAN transmutate, but you need ridiculuous amounts of energy to fuse the subatomic components of the molecules. But the alchemists claimed you could do it with simple means, and LOTS of time—kind of like cold fusion.

  2. The perpetual motion of fossil fuel industry
    I’ve lost count of the number of inventors with perpetual motion electromagnetically-driven engines, and they’ve all disappeared from lack of funding or buried for more sinister reasons (oil being the big one). So I’m chuffed to see Shawyer has received funding from the British Government, but I’m still cynical and pessimistic — we won’t be seeing this technology anytime soon, I expect it to be stalled and stalled and stalled by those with vested interests in fossil fuel industries.

    Imagine the tech we’d be enjoying today if it weren’t for those corrupt b*st*rds.

    1. Told to “drop it”
      In that article he states, “I was told in no uncertain terms to drop it,” he says. “This came from the very top.”

      How does that not get more attention from, well, ANYone? While the oil industry obviously is a prime suspect here, I don’t know if they have that kind of power honestly. They clearly have the motive.

      But the government on the other hand clearly has the power and the motive in the sense that free power such as this would destablize the economy and the order of power in the world almost instantly. It would also give another potential weapon to people with unscrupulous intentions to start trying to achieve and if it’s really that easy to make, it would be very hard to control. With nuclear technology it’s way easier to manage who gets it and how it’s implemented. Plus it’s easier to determine who has it due to a signature signal it gives off when it’s used. Satalites can track it for the most part and it requires very special fuel that is difficult to create. This new type of power generation does not.

      So I think it’s more likely that governments (maybe in collusion) would try to squash this technology publically as long as it could to try to get so far ahead of the game that when it does come out, they have ways to control it if someone did get their hands on it. I wouldn’t be surprised if they have been using this technology for a long time in the military. And wouldn’t that fit right into some of the strange things we’ve seen in the skys and some of the strange behavior by our government in terms of secrecy that they claim relates to “national security”? Who knows and time will tell. I just wish it would tell sooner! 😀

      1. Not really
        Turner linked that New Scientist article, because of the recent news about the Chinese trying to build this ‘impossible’ space drive, that yours truly linked in last Thursday.

        Rumors and comments about this story are still rippling all over the web; we’ll keep you updated as new events unfold.
