Howard Johnson Replication Tube Claim

[Bobbotov]

Well, not exactly. I used smaller motors and did not rest them on my couch. I don't even have a couch.

And to think you could have used the prize money to buy a couch. Or at least a cushion. Or maybe just a throw pillow.

It appears I can post again to Mylow-yahoo site. Would be good if afew people chaecked it out. Some are going of the rails again (ie like the fishing line was actually hooked to a generator!!! not a motor)

Hey look up hall effect, and hall effect probes man. Well at least you want to believe.

The HJ legacy is a myth made on this very thread. There's no such legacy as common sense. What HJ did anyone can do with some time and a robotic toolkit.

He "discovered magnetism" by measuring the field at thousands of points around a magnet and plotting the data on a computer screen. Using this knowledge he then proceeded by plotting many different setups and using conventional math to come up with a design that has an asymmetrical force times distance behavior.

The only reason why this simple feat hasn't been repeated is due to ignorance. The armchair is too comfortable to leave so why bother. Such device should be available in any university with a physics course. Instead they show the wonders of magnetism with iron fillings or a compass. Are we still in the dark ages?

Yes I saw that, so Mylow had his wheel driving a generator but decided to hide the generator and the lamp it was powering because he wanted to prove his motor was able to do work, genius!, why did I not think of that.

Since Sterling did not have the courtesy to email me directly with that announcement, I've emailed him with this:

Hello Sterling
In a post on OU, someone put this up (I wonder why you haven't replied directly to me.)

"Hi TK,

In the story I'm composing at http://pesn.com/2009/05/19/9501542_Fish-line_discovered_in_Mylow-magnet-motor/
I state:
If you wish to claim the prize, you need to follow the stipulations listed at http://mylowplans.com (requires validation in person by a credible witness who will go on record with his/her witness statement.)"

I won this prize fair and square and you know it. You did not make Mylow get outside validation by a credible witness so I consider that condition null and void. We can have our lawyers talk about this issue if you like. But no matter--if you want to come to me personally and confirm that my wheel works just exactly like Mylow's in all significant respects, I won't turn you away or meet you in a coffee house--I will gladly run it for you for an hour.
Or perhaps you would like me to contract a certain consultant. I understand that you and he have had prior contact. Surely you will find him acceptable as a qualified witness, and I think I may be able to travel to his location with the device.

I also have posted this on overunity.com, and I will be posting this letter there as well.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
--TK
