Joe Newman has a new car !

Oh i see. Sounds disappointing. What else do you know about this? The motor on the table worked well, didn't it? The Video on youtube was posted May 2007? Not so old....maybe the file is older...

The motor on the table is a black box to us.  We have no idea whether there are batteries or capacitors inside or what.  The video is inconclusive.

[wattsup]

I can't wait to buy my first free energy 7 ton electric toothbrush. That'll get therm clean all right.

I find the problem with Joe Newman is Joe Newman.

He is suffering from a bad case of the "I am God" syndrome and proof of this is when he says several times "God told me this or that" when in actuality it his own mind that is speaking to himself.

This attitude does what? He probably does not listen to his marketing specialist because a marketing specialist would not have let him make such a video, in the manner he did.

Pointing endlessly to his 9 volts battery bank and yelling out "this is your oscilloscope", shows a level of irrational behavior that will eventually knock him down. People know didly squat about oscilloscopes to know what he is trying to convey in his message, so then, the best thing to do is say nothing.

His display of a 7 ton piece of equipment is too big. For all we know, this device could have been designed by Fred Flintstone and he has 5 monkeys inside turning a crankshaft. No way to know. Wilma,,,,,,,,,,

Lastly, showing his car running at 1 foot per second is not exactly good marketing. "Hey honey, let's go to the drive-in. If we leave today we'll be there by next week". Great.

All in all, Joe has shown us how to not make a video, how to not speak about your device and most importantly, how you should listen to your marketing man, if he tells you NO. STOP. REWIND.

So in effect Joe may be showing us also that the biggest hurdle to overcome is not the worlds' apprehensions, but ourselves as being the architect or our own failures or creations.

I watched this video with interest.  (Newman) I don't have the background in electronics to determine if there is anything to what he was saying.  Has anyone here looked at this and made any conclusions?  I'm not talking about the car, that was not too impressive, but his other main motor, could the scientists he claimed looked at it all be wrong?  Of course, there could have been a lot "hidden" from view and evaluation during these tests.  I just am not sure.  Can any of our electronics guys comment on the video?
