That they would give this guy credibility?
Here is a link to a discussion we had here on his first youtube video and device: http://www.overunity.com/index.php/topic,2908.0/topicseen.html (http://www.overunity.com/index.php/topic,2908.0/topicseen.html)
Here is a link to Free Energy News (checkout Aug. 8th), of his new silly ass gravity wheels. There are youtube links of them rolling on their "own power" ::) -- which is obviously down a slight grade: http://freeenergynews.com/ (http://freeenergynews.com/)
I'm usually not one to piss and moan. But why mix silly shit in with real news, in an area that already is scorned and laughed at by the traditional science? We don't need this crap.

And I thought I was the only one that was thinking that ;) The first video that Mr Hall did with the toothpicks and pencil looked like it may have had a fan off to the side blowing on it. The second with the big wheel on the garage floor gets to a spot where it looks like it gets an external push to get over a hump in the concrete. Maybe a leaf blower.. Anyways.. all the garage floors I have seen are tilted for water drainage so a better proof would have been for it to go both directions. The third one on the kitchen table really looks like a tilted table. You can tell because the chair is level and if you compare the table to the chair you can tell the table is tilted first on direction for the first video and then the other direction for the second video. If it is a true gravity wheel then the last two designs should work in a stationary form with an axle in the middle with bearings and a plastic case around it to prevent external wind or other forces from coming into play. That should be simple enough to do (another 2 hours of work) and would quell some of the "yeah right" attitude. Claiming these are truly working free energy machines that the guy whipped up in a few hours without any true confirmation or good testing is really pushing the believability envelope. So yeah.. I would have to agree that they may be smoking something.
I think that they are definately smoking Bob Marley's ashes. :P
Wow !!!! Mr. Hall must really be pissed at us..

A few negative comments and he burns it.. Seems like an extreme response to some comments... The video segment with the level is a nice touch.. All he had to do was put a couple of needle bearing supports in the middle of the wheel, stick it on a cradle to allow it to freely spin then put a clear plastic box over it. That would have silenced a lot of the critics.. Would not have been hard at all. Instead he burns it. Guess I will have to make one now... Looks easy enough and if it works I will make it stationary inside a clear plastic box with at least a ten minute video and will give Mr Hall full credit.
In the measntime I really hope he does build a better one that is 'bulletproof'. and my apologies to Mr. Hall if I was a bit harse on him... All of his videos have made my mind think which is a good thing..
Had Scott presented his device in a no-nonsense serious way that was not full of incredibly, he certainly would have received more positive oriented comments. It's not like we all haven't been burned already with dozens and dozens of frauds.
If we're lucky, we sometimes receive well deserved criticism that we can learn from and so put forth more effort next time. I wouldn't worry too much about it, Hydro. If Scott can't take the heat, his widgets are easy enough to replicate... heaven knows I built his silly dog-food/magnets and tooth-pick umbrella fiasco.

Is that the same burning pot that he smoked Bob Marley's ashes from ?. ;D ;D ;D
Listen to all that energy they can pump out at will. ... The worst kind of non-smoker is the one when you're smoking and they just walk up to you [mocks a person faking a cough] I always .... Wouldn't you like to see a positive!!
