@Archie:
The crowd funding campaign is a bit slowish on the funding. Maybe you should consider a rebranding. Archurian Rocket sounds a little gayish, you know. Sexual connotation and etc. Just ask Cap'n heehoo. Something along the lines of 'The rectally applied Archurian fist of truth' may be more appropriate. Think about it. Marketing is a delicate business.

You guys really should stop ridiculing the TEQ. He singlehandedly gangraped Newton, his silly 'laws' and his followers. Why don't you instead take some monies and upload it to the indigoogo website to fund this impotent project?

orbut 3000 the only thing that Archer Quinn has gangraped is reason.  Buoyancy is the force exerted back on an object of any density as it displaces some volume, and therefore mass of surrounding fluid.  This is even true under conditions of Archimedes' Paradox which do not apply to anything that Archer Quinn has proposed.  The buoyant force counters the force of gravity on the object in question.  Where the mass of the object is less than the mass of the displaced fluid volume, the net force is up.  Where the mass is the same, the net force is neutral, and where the mass of the object is greater than the displaced fluid, the net force is down.

So, no big surprise, the only way that there is a net upward force on a submerged object is when that object displaces a greater mass of surrounding fluid than its own mass.  IE, the object has a lower density less than the fluid.  Taking an instant where the submerged object is at its most submerged, and any other point where the object is less submerged, as the object rises, an equal volume of fluid falls as the object and surrounding fluid change places.  Denser surrounding fluid falls as the less dense object, IE the float, rises.  The center of gravity for the combined fluid and object goes down.  Ergo the gravitational potential energy goes down.  Ergo, stored gravitational potential energy is expended raising the float with buoyancy.  Energy is not created in this process.  It is lost to the environment as waste heat.

No offense, markE, but you sound like a troll paid by the whale oil industry.

orbut 3000 I have explained to you the physics that you can easily verify.  Verify, or don't it matters not to me.  Make crazy accusations if you like, such behavior reflects only on you. 

If you think you can stop the whaling sheiks you are sadly mistaken.  What with the vast whaling fleets churning out trillions of dollars of slick gold each day no one can evade the treacherous reach of the blubber dollar.  Do you think it is just coincidence that whenever Archer goes to the bar he finds himself surrounded by peg leg comrades all gripping harpoons?

Interesting how you never mentioned dishwasher repair procedures, MarkE. Do you possibly have something to hide? Just asking. Questions.
