Another "free energy" crazy surfaces, promises solution to all world ills by June 20th

See that scary man? That there is Archer Quinn, self-proclaimed savior of mankind. He's prepping a free energy device that he plans to unveil on June 20th of this year, on which date he predicts "the oil reign and those who governed by their money and crushed the people by the taxes and control of the most basic of needs shall be put down for all time." Yeah, pretty wild stuff. And if that wasn't enough, he's decided to nickname his gravity-based device the "Sword of God." His prior experience involves some sort of "thermal accelerator" (pictured) and a myriad of other inventions, so he doesn't seem to think breaking Newton's laws should be much of a problem. Guess it won't take long to find out. This should be a fun one.

Save yourself a double yawn and scroll down to the bottom.



With regards to Thomas/Quinn or whoever; lots of wishful thinking. Forget free energy, when there's free money to be made from wishful thinking, in the form of leeching from peoples' "Hope" for a better world.

This has nothing to do with scientific or engineering advancement. In all seriousness, if you woke up one day and realised you had the answer to cheap (never mind free!) energy, and you truly wanted to share it with the world before Black Helicopters swooped down on your lawn, you'd chuck the whole lot on the internet just like they do in the movies :p

You want cheap energy, build a hamster wheel for your dog. (Patent Pending)

Here is what the inventor says to all you guys worshipping the laws of thermodynamics:

So too many things in physics by Newtonian bullshit are not true, EG: for every action there is an equal or opposite reaction, well you can print this very in your face proof it is not true in the science monthly magazine, for in front of mankind?s eyes everyday, especially science one very basic instrument proves this wrong.

A magnet, a magnet can lift more than it can push, the attraction and hold properties are greater than the repelling properties. EG: a magnet capable of pulling a 200KG magnetic block cannot even strapped to a front end loader moving slowly up to the same block push the 200kg
block along the same surface with that repulsion effect, the hold effect of a magnet is far greater than the repelling effect. Poor old Isaac, sorry champ but wrong again, for every reaction there is not an equal or opposite reaction, that in itself should show you that you can get movement without power and that magnetic friction is not equal, thus in the same vein that fall usually equates to lift and why an evenly balanced wheel will not turn, or an unevenly balanced wheel
can fall but not rise, this does not apply to magnets where the lift verses repulsion, the lift will always have more (spare) power of the repulsion, that in itself is natural over unity!!

oh my god my eyes are bleeding. please let it just go away! There are so many things wrong with this argument of his that it makes me want to go home and cry...

Check the site, he just opened up quite a bit

Now, if we could just get Leonard Nimoy to record the words "Free Energy" and have Information Society release a remix of What's On Your Mind with the new Nimoy words, we would have a theme song for Archer Quinn.

"I wanna know
What meds you're taking.
There are some things you can't hide.
I wanna know
What you're making.
Tell me what's warped your mind.

"Free Energy"
"Free Energy"

Can someone explain to me how gravity works? I understand the observable principals and the measurable mathematics, but I don't seem to be able to find a scientific description of the nuts and bolts of it.
This still fits the science credo of "propose a theory, perform a test, observe the results" and as such gravity is proven.
But how does it work? And why?

Quote from How Stuff Works "The question of why atoms attract one another is still not understood. The goal is to combine gravity, electromagnetism and strong and weak nuclear forces into a single unified theory. (Check out this page on quantum gravity string theory.)"


Paraphrase from Scott Adams: "Every previous generation throughout history though that they were the ones who answered all the unknown questions, but they didn't. What are the odds that this generation is the one that answers all the unknowns?"

It wasnt the building that was so tough, it was trying to do it with 6 billion people stabbing you in the back at the same time
