I would like to get some dialogue going on with respect to what I would call a gate generator design based upon Howard Johnsons' gate and curved magnet phenomena depicted and discussed in his publication Spintronics The Secret World of Magnets. I have a rough design in the form of a concept design; and I think this would be a very nice approach to a self powered generator. There is a copy of this publication available for download on http://www.scribd.com for those who need to understand what I am talking about.
