The wager you are proposing already exists in completely legal form.  James Randi has made his $1 million challenge available to proponents of perpetual motion.

I would personally be willing to wager with you up to $100,000, but right now I have no idea if what you are claiming even violates any laws of physics (i.e. producing energy from nothing), and I really do not have much faith in being able to collect any money from a stranger on the Internet.  Anyway, $1 million is a much sweeter offer, and you risk nothing in return except for being debunked, so I urge you to take the Randi Challenge.

I'm prepared to wager Utilitarian that Paul won't take the JREF challenge! 

Apparently perpetual motion machines are common applicants but few of them actually show up to be tested...just like overunity.com!

Occasionally, the Challenge e-mail will be swamped with very similar claims. One of these is Perpetual Motion Machines.

Most of the time, after the initial e-mail contact is made and a response sent, there is never any further contact with the claimant - presumably because they have not yet constructed the machine.

That sounds even better yet. I'll read the qualifications. If my diode array qualifies then I'll enter it.

For those who are interested, within a few minutes I'm starting a new thread in the News area of this forum.

It looks like Randi and his cronies are even afraid to answer my emails, both of them. Even if they do, they'll probably prohibit my diode array from entering the perpetual motion $1M challenge even though my claim is clearly a perpetual motion machine.

So, if you're serious about your $100,000 wager (must be a legal business contract) then please contact me, but only do so if you are serious, because I am very serious -->

Your $100K would go toward a good cause. It would end my present struggle in trying to design home brew semiconductor fabrication equipment. It will probably take me a year or two to work out the bugs, get fine tuned, etc.  The $100K would end that struggle, allow me to purchase existing equipment.

Don't worry, we'll get a third party to handle the business contract, who will hold the money from both parties. I don't personally have $100K, but it shouldn't be too difficult to find a backer. All the backer has to do is have my diode array tested by a company to *guarantee* that it produces a DC voltage. I already know that it does, nearly 13 months of voltage measurements using over a dozen different voltage meters.
