It would appear that you fired your magic silver bullet.  I suppose you could call it "broad spectrum" pop psychoanalysis.

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't the "freeenergytruth" web site run by a person of which one of his handles is "NewsEditor."  If that's the case then NewsEditor was a rabid supporter of Steorn.  For every major disappointment that Storm brought to the table, he kept on supporting them.  This went on and on and on, and for all that I know, he still supports them.  Meanwhile, Steorn is dead in the water.  They have produced nothing, and burned through about 15 million dollars in other people's money.

Assuming that I am correct, that sets up a context when reading your silver bullet.

A lot of the stuff in that article presumes that the skeptics are wildly and irrationally negative and are out there to defend the status quo like some sort of preprogrammed autonomic reaction.  It also implicitly presumes that there is almost always merit on the other side - i.e.; the people promoting some kind of alternative technology or alternative concept, their propositions have merit.

Well, unfortunately that's a big hole in the argument.  The silver bullet is more like a Mylar balloon.

Look at the example of the forums and people that play with oscilloscopes and coils and magnets.

E2matrix:  What is the median knowledge level for the electronics experimenters around here?

If you can answer that question in a truly honest and verbose way, and then go back and read your silver bullet prose, then you will have a more balanced opinion of the skeptics.

And as you know, it's very rare for me to get into any technical discussions with an experimenter that falls into the large group with a median technical knowledge level.  You know what my interest is and it's not that.

But the question is legitimate and directly applicable and gives context to the NewsEditor tirade against the skeptics.

Why? I mean.  Could you be specific instead of just spamming the thread with a lot of talk from a psychic?
