My latest project. Recently I designed a new generation wind turbine. I am going to miniaturize my design and work it into the front trunk area of a teener. My goal is to drive coast to coast non-stop........ Ambitious? Yes! Doable? Yes! I will accept any help thrown my way! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif) By the way, it is great to be back here, I missed this place! |

I've been trying to stay out of this, but ...
People made fun of anybody doing something different, both nutjobs and serious folks. I knew our friend was in the former category when his video said "The first attempt design works so incredibly efficiently I stopped developement (sic)" Also there is a random guy in China who already built a car with a re- generative turbine on the front (he probably already patented it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ). Bottom line is that if you can do the whole thing yourself, go ahead, it will prove itself. If you can't do it all by yourself, you need a couple pesky little things called physics and mathematics, used properly to get somebody else's money. (Or dumb-ass celebrities without it). Only the fraudsters and crackpots scream about their secret unique math-free black box device and how they'll show the world. Look at youtube and be surprised at how many idiots think they're one step away from the perfect "magnet motor". |

Is it wrong for a person who has the experience and training that I possess to be able to design a "thing" so well that it works first time out? Seriously? wow |

QUOTE My design works and it works "right out of the box." Is it wrong for a person who has the experience and training that I possess to be able to design a "thing" so well that it works first time out? Seriously? wow Two different things. Yes, it is ridiculous to have a first design and have it so great that development stops. However, if you are talking about just doing something slightly different from your years of 'experience and training' then sure, make your slightly different new gadget; but don't call it 'first attempt design'. |
