How did I get to be so hated ?

Agreed, but not to worry, I know the secret  and it is nothing like what John thinks it is.  I expect we will hear his announcement of failure very soon, and if he keeps to his word, he will disclose his coded message for all to read.

No disrespect intended towards John, I'm just stating an opinion based on my recent discoveries.

For clarification, when I refer to the secret behind Bessler's Wheel, I'm referring to the underlying principle that ultimately powered the wheel.  The conventional wisdom is his wheel operated on overbalance.  I don't disagree.  But, overbalanced wheels are break even at best (excluding friction and air resistance), so what is the source of force that lifted the weights into the overbalanced position?  That is the underlying principle I mentioned.
