ANOTHER perpertual motion machine

[RickJay]

According to the Strieber site, this paper: http://www.ott.doe.gov/pdfs/MEGpaper.pdf

details a perpetual motion machine. Or a free energy machine, or whatever.

SD physicists, take your shot. I don't understand it well enough to debunk it.

And it's on the DOE website?

Surely it must not be what it seems, unless this spells the final death of the DOE after 8 years of liberal control...

OK, OK! Don't flame me, I take it back! Jeeze!

Aside from the talk of magnetic monopoles, is that it seems the core of their device is duct tape (page 5).

This *is* funny. Where'd you find the link?

[Kyberneticist]

Energy can be reused as it shifts from form to form.
A blithe disregard of entropy.

This seems to be an elaborate joke. Slow day at the lab?

We stress that present electrical power systems deliberately use their collected energy
only once, and do not take advantage of energy regauging by free replenishment from the
potential environment.

Teehee.
