  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Where are our modern day teslas to take care of all this?

    Oh, yeah, they are locked up by our energy companies so stuff like free energy is a myth.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Bah.. this is old but people are slow to change.. ever hear of kinetic watches?
    how about those stupid speed bumps that steal power from cars going over it.
    there was also a laptop keyboard invented to drew power from the keys being pressed.
    getting all these power harvesters to work would be cool but also would add conciderable expense
  • witooo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Energy wouldn't be free to people... not even if there was a clean infinite source! Governments and Multinationals feel to deeply about money for that to happen!
  • solarpowered, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0A quasi-scholarly article stating the damned obvious. Duh.

    Where's the news here? (or is it posting something to become "prior art"?)

  • StephnDolenc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i hope this works
  • solarpowered, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0dupswapdrop: Danger! That's a massive field gradient!!! Get out of there!!!!!!
  • theone3, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Geez. Can't we just build an n-machine into everything and be done with it?

  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0We've never been able to properly isolate a quark...
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"I say we isolate a quark and draw energy from it's desire to pair..."

    But a quark is already isolated(if we want it to be) and yet not so if we look the other way or think something differently.

  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0back ground voltages are all around the place, including emf.
    Get can pull about 60 volts at .25 amp in my office with just a wire (24 inch's) and a cap.

  • AnimeRules15421, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0It's the matrix's there going to turn us into battery's! (lol)
    Well enyways it's not that great of a(n) idea but it would be good as a last resort for energy.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0Could be cool. Stay tuned!
