The United States had a chance to seperate itself from oil slavery when Stan Meyer invented the water driven car. Unfortunatly, for those in power, that knowledge was a severe threat. He was bought out, and eventually poisoned. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 832 United States 01/23/2006 04:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There's something else you ought to know about Icelanders. The kids there can speak 5 languages. Iceland is 100% White people. They also killed, for sport, hundreds of Pilot Whales, those are the ones that have round heads and are meek and mild, like the one that recently died in England. They must have a lot of Karma for the murder of a higher consciousness such as the whales/dolphins. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 65948 United States 01/23/2006 04:51 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.free-energy.ws] SUPER-EFFICIENT ELECTROLYSIS Water can be broken into Hydrogen and Oxygen using electricity. Standard chemistry books claim that this process requires more energy than can be recovered when the gases are recombined. This is true only under the worst case scenario. When water is hit with its own molecular resonant frequency, using a system developed by Stan Meyers (USA) and again recently by Xogen Power, Inc., it collapses into Hydrogen and Oxygen gas with very little electrical input. Also, using different electrolytes (additives that make the water conduct electricity better) changes the efficiency of the process dramatically. It is also known that certain geometric structures and surface textures work better than others do. The implication is that unlimited amounts of Hydrogen fuel can be made to drive engines (like in your car) for the cost of water. Even more amazing is the fact that a special metal alloy was patented by Freedman (USA) in 1957 that spontaneously breaks water into Hydrogen and Oxygen with no outside electrical input and without causing any chemical changes in the metal itself. This means that this special metal alloy can make Hydrogen from water for free, forever.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 65948 United States 01/23/2006 04:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This next deal can be built with off the shelf already developed technology: Solar Assisted Heat Pumps. The refrigerator in your kitchen is the only "free energy machine" you currently own. It's an electrically operated heat pump. It uses one amount of energy (electricity) to move three amounts of energy (heat). This gives it a "coefficient of performance" (COP) of about 3. Your refrigerator uses one amount of electricity to pump three amounts of heat from the inside of the refrigerator to the outside of the refrigerator. This is its typical use, but it is the worst possible way to use the technology. Here's why. A heat pump pumps heat from the "source" of heat to the "sink" or place that absorbs the heat. The "source" of heat should obviously be HOT and the "sink" for heat should obviously be COLD for this process to work the best. In your refrigerator, it's exactly the opposite. The "source" of heat is inside the box, which is COLD, and the "sink" for heat is the room temperature air of your kitchen, which is warmer than the source. This is why the COP remains low for your kitchen refrigerator. But this is not true for all heat pumps. COP's of 8 to 10 are easily attained with solar assisted heat pumps. In such a device, a heat pump draws heat from a solar collector and dumps the heat into a large underground absorber, which remains at 55° F, and mechanical energy is extracted in the transfer. This process is equivalent to a steam engine that extracts mechanical energy between the boiler and the condenser, except that it uses a fluid that "boils" at a much lower temperature than water. One such system that was tested in the 1970's produced 350 hp, measured on a Dynamometer, in a specially designed engine from just 100-sq. ft. of solar collector. (This is NOT the system promoted by Dennis Lee.) The amount of energy it took to run the compressor (input) was less than 20 hp, so this system produced more than 17 times more energy than it took to keep it going! It could power a small neighborhood from the roof of a hot tub gazebo, using exactly the same technology that keeps the food cold in your kitchen. Currently, there is an industrial scale heat pump system just north of Kona, Hawaii that generates electricity from temperature differences in ocean water. |

The whale that died in Londond wasn't a pilot whale, it was a northern bottle-nosed whale. Icelandic whalers hunt minke, sei and fin whales. Get your facts right. And much as I dislike the fact that whaling is still practised in Iceland, it's not that long ago that a large numebr of countries, including the UK and the US (where most of the GLP posters come from I think) were also very active in whaling. For countries like Iceland, giving up whaling isn't as easy as for others, and although I'm sure they'll eventually bow to international pressure, it has to be done gradually if it's going to work without a lot of rancour. Innuit still hunt whales, seals, walrus and polar bears - are we going to suddenly impose our standards on them too, and force them to stop hunting? I have a lot of respect for the Icelanders - a strong-willed and independent people - and although I might not like their choices in this matter I have to accept respect them. Confused and incorrect facts as you present above don't do anything to reinforce our side of the debate... |

I would be happy to debate you. name the thread name the time. Start it. THE ONLY REASON this WORKS is BECAUSE OF AN EXISTING CHEAP ENERGY SOURCE> THERMAL ENERGY TAKES THE PLACE OF THE OIL . Rita. some of us have studied this problem for years, and no the complete ins and outs. You come in and claim to say that you know its wrong. You have no facts, no evidence, only, a desire for it not to be true. you're a fool |

The electricity was to be used to power the largest aluminum smelter in the world. They were having some problems with large chunks of ice falling on the workers digging out a big lake |
