Roll on the 20th June

[exxcomm0n]

The prize is not enough.

I want mucky pond scum to go with my cow plop pate.

And the kids........we can't get sitters for them, so can you please change the grand prize venue from "Fuck you stoern.......walk of wonder" to "Nah, nah, nah, nyah-nyah.....You don't get my money lane"?

you already got the prize you just dont read who your emails are from

Aw 1sn0s it's no fun to call the stupid people stupid, cuz they just don't get it. The fun is in playing along with them.

Exactly.

But regardless, I'm glad the example of hydroelectic power was brought up

Always glad to help

Get a freakin high school diploma so u won't waste ur lives repeating the same mistakes people have made for the past millennia.

I think the problem is that magnetism is a rather complex topic. Strictly mechanical "overbalanced" wheels can be disproven easily, with a drawing, a few arrows, numbers and calculations. But how do you calculate a magnetic field which is moving through other magnetic fields and show what forces are acting at which point? Guess you'd need lots of paper, or a simulator. Do you have one? I don't

Then "they" add an electromagnet. Great. This thing is a bitch to calculate for a hundred reasons - just too many variables. And then they pulse it! So honestly, all those variables are a bit much, so we just HAVE to rely on "uh... well, we KNOW it can't work, that's why it doesn't!" instead of throwing them a number saying "see? it can't work because at this point the electromagnet would require x A for y ms, but you have only x/2 A for y ms" or whatever. And then they will say "ah so it's all theoretic mumbo-jumbo and you actually can't PROVE that it won't work?".

So in the end if you don't have a rendering of a simulation showing why it can't work, they will go ahead and build it. And it's not Archer's fault - they are not building it because he tells them that it is indeed possible, they are building it because nobody proved to them that it is not. So I guess it's your fault, and 1sn0s, and that of all the other people wo just say "it just CAN'T work, that's why it WON'T work!". In their eyes, your "claim" is as weak as Archer's - but Archer's is more intriguing, so they stick with him and not with you.

Personally, I just sit back and watch this. It will be interesting to see what will happen around the 20th - how Archer and his followers will react when / if the machine doesn't work. Will they just be ashamed and leave? Will they go the "it just needs a little more tinkering"-route? Will they claim it works but not show anything because "if you want to see it, build it yourself - you have the plans"? "Oh your's doesn't work? Well mine does, so you made a mistake"?

We will see.

you don't check your emails either darkstar

How can one person know so much about different fields of physics??

Must be driving those fucking NASA dropkicks mental.

Well here's a fucking pearler for ya NASA, when i studied that effect and transfer some ten years ago, I also discovered packaged light.

send me a fucking Virus you pricks, That one I'm going to publish for free. dickheads

Told you that experimant you were trying would blow up the fucking space shuttles didn't I?! Whos the fucking smart guy now. fuckwits.

Sorry guys, personal message to some pricks i tried to help once.

WOW... That's a lot of f**king. You're starting to make me feel jealous   .
