Odd and unusual Laws and troubling times for FE research

You have not actually established that there is any issue.

Yes, there actually is an issue (5 years after crisis, U.S. still remains dependent on China's rare earth elements)

Did you miss the turn at Albuquerque?

@Ramset,

It would be easier to make our case if a thread was titled, "Government and Corporate Polices Hinders Alternative Energy".  Polices are in a way internal laws written by and for an entity in which to follow, that doesn't apply outside of itself.  Hinder is a better choice to use than suppression.  Hinder, means to cause delay, interruption, or difficulty in; hamper; impede.  This is exactly what the gov't and corporations have been doing.

No, I didn't miss the turn at Albuquerque.  However, you missed the turn at building the supply chain to refine the rare earths could take a decade or two.  The "so-called" rare earths is an issue that isn't going away any time soon.

A suppressed video of Ed using a block and tackle to build Coral Castle...

Nice video. Do you have info on his generator patent? On page 22 of his book that I have, he says...

"Suppose you had a wheel and many coils around the wheel turning, then you would be making all kinds of light. Do Not make the machine. I already have the application for patent in the Patent Office..."

...his book then goes on to explain how to make his perpetual motion holder. Since he doesn't want you to make his generator "machine", that suggests that his patent is different from the PMH of which the perpetual motion holder may only be a part of his patented machine. Your video suggests that his wheel shaped magnet generator is nothing more than a side show gag for tourists to go ohhh and ahhh at. I doubt he would try to get a patent on such a simple trick though. Perhaps he had a way of attaching his PMH to that wheel for when the tourists weren't around and that is what is in the patent?
