SMOT! - (previously about the OC MPMM)

The idea of a mute button or the invisible man [for a while]  might save a few from having strokes

Omnibus,

It does not matter whether there is overunity or not. It only matters if you can use it. Your smot is a worthless verification of temporary useless ou. JUST LIKE A VIRTUAL PARTICLE. These people, including me, want to see your device make use of the ou. A closed loop. And as I read the definition of closed loop, it always agrees on the fact that the object or system returns to it's physical starting place, where it can begin again WITHOUT USER INTERVENTION. In programming this is a childish concept, everybody understands.

while(SMOT_ENERGY > 1)
{
       SMOT_ENERGY++;
}

This is an extremely simple concept using code. I've learned it in multiple languages, you just have to use it in english...

I hear the keys jingling   you should definately count to ten  or put up a punching bag next to the computer   around this thread  you'd be in shape in no time   Chet

lol...right...what's keys jingling mean?

Oh just a little brevity I  Imagine Stephan bringing the lock

OK, Omnibus, I see the error of my ways, and I admit it!  Indeed, the potential energy of the rubber band is lowest at my point A.  I have made a new drawing.  Is the example below analagous to the SMOT?

What we have is a relatively weak rubber band.  The position shown is at point A, where the ball is dragged quite low by gravity.  Then, the experimenter lifts the ball by hand to point B.  Here, the incline is very slight, enough to allow the rubber band to pull the ball toward C, where it falls off and returns to A.

Make the following assumptions, in case the drawing is not clear enough.

1.  The rubber band never relaxes, so it always applies a force.
2.  A is farther from X than B is from X, so the greatest potential energy of the rubber band is at A.

Thanks.
