Howard Johnson Replication Tube Claim

[mpavenir]

           and I see the Tube User named whgage calls him an idiot, so I click on whgages' profile page (  http://www.youtube.com/user/whgage  ) , and I see MYLOW has found time to post a comment, "if you dont mind please dont call me an idoit i prefer more like a lire ok" . So I ask this, Why refer to yourself as a liar?

His comment sounds like irony/cynicism, refering to the bunch of people calling him a liar.. Actually he'd be a real idiot, writing this seriously 

The theory of degaussing driving effect + magnetic viscosity is very interesting !
I've got neodym magnets and ferrite magnets that would be great for trying out this hypothesis (maybe when I've got more time)

It's only been a few days since Mylow posted his Mar. 17 video showing acceleration and continuous rotation in his replica of HJ's magnet motor.

It seems like a month, so much has happened.

He has been getting by on very little sleep, and it is starting to get to him. 

He seems to feel obligated to answer every comment made, positive or negative.

I suggested that perhaps someone else could answer most of his emails for him, freeing him up to do some of the other things he needs to do.

That person could answer most of the question, then ask Mylow when there are new questions for which his input is needed.

They could build and maintain a FAQ page at PESWiki to refer people to.

I'm not sure how to do this (email assistant) logistically, since Mylow only has one email account/address, and he would not want to jeopardize the security of the other things for which he uses his email.  So suggestions along those lines would be appreciated.  The most obvious work-around would be for Mylow to merely forward to the helper any email regarding the motor.  (I'm not sure he could do that without wanting to answer them himself.)  The a separate channel could be established for priority communications with that person and myself, and others who he allows to have that level of access.  Also, I've set up mylow {at} pureenergysystems.com for incoming email, and have listed that on the contact page.  This can be diverted to the person helping Mylow with his email.

Any volunteers to play that role on his behalf?

Once we get a set of plans that are certified to result in a working unit, we can get some revenue going, and pay you for your efforts.  For now, it will need to be voluntary time.

In addition to being trustworthy/loyal, Mylow will want this person to have the ability to both understand the project and have courteous correspondence skills.  He tries to be tactful and professional even when people are being ornery with him.

...It's the way the field is for a normal horseshoe PM. As you can see, it does not match mylow's.  See how the field is ***parallel*** to the back of the PM. In mylow's video the field is perpendicular...

Before Mylow removed his movies from youtube, I took a series of screen shots of the magnets and their polarities.
I agree with you, Paul.
The company that's re-magnetizing it may be able to give us more information. I wonder if Mylow would give out their phone number?

or-
ask him to email me at tvanderelli@nanomagnetics.us and I'll mail him a piece of viewing film no charge.
He can take a pix of the stator mag & post it on box.net or something.

3) Regarding the four in a row rotor magnets, I think this was done this way simply because the diameter of the wheel versus the spacing between each six sets was not really pre-calculated to fit perfectly and that fourth magnet was used to occupying the obvious over spacing. This tells me the actual build is not that critical and the the real effect can be accomplished in many ways.

That is my take as well.  It's part of the serendipity of his being tape-measure challenged.  He probably would not have made this lucky discovery if he was more analytical by nature.

I'm a bit confused about the idea of mylow answer every question. During the beginning in his original youtube page a guy clearly asked mylow if he could take his machine to a University. In that same thread at youtube mylow answered a lot of questions, but he kept ignoring this guy!  Why, because it was one of the best questions?

Also, a lot of people here who are the ones interested and trying their best to replicate his machine have asked great questions, but he's not here answering any of them.
