Inspiration for 2005

[John Collins]

May I offer this for inspiration in 2005. This will be the year!

This Ancient Mystery, I have sought, for many years, to solve and thought
The secret of the wheel's construction lay beyond mere skilled deduction.
So I brought the world's attention to this greatest missed invention
Hoped some rare ability'd retrieve this fair facility

Yet scarcely had the thought occurred before I realised how absurd
It was that I should have the notion I could solve Perpetual Motion!
This Ancient Mystery's merely myth, credited by those whose Kith
And kin forgot what they had learned, that energy spent must first be earned.

Despite this fact there was some doubt - Did Bessler find a way about
This obstacle to energy, and find a force that's pure and free?
Long ago my doubts were dashed, for sudden inspiration flashed,
The energy whose source I sought was all around - its cost was naught.
And wherein lies this bold solution that will solve the world's pollution?

The answer lies in Gravity, a source of energy that's free.
Conservative - its attitude to work is that its magnitude
Remains the same. It does not stop. It's constant and it makes things drop.
It's said that this is contrary to what we think is verity,
Gravity cannot be used and those who think so are confused.

It matters not who's right or wrong - the clues have been there all along.
Bessler wrote in ciphers rare but paranoid, he did not dare
Reveal a clue - changed his ambition - sought posthumous recognition.
Hid in text, cryptic instruction, showing us complete construction.
His secret solved will be the key to giving us free energy.

If you believe this can't be true, suspend your judgement - see if you
Can find a fault in what you read about the proof, with which I plead.
My aim is clear, intent is strong, to show that Bessler has been wronged.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL

Nice Poem John.

I was able to read that last week on your site.


Viewing other sites on FE/OU and invention was able to find some wisdom and splashes of realism from Leonardo Da Vinci for 2005.



Obstacles cannot crush me. Every obstacle yields to stern resolve. He who is fixed to a star does not change his mind."
~ Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)
The Notebooks, 1508–1518

"It is easier to resist at the beginning than at the end."
~ Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)
The Notebooks, 1508–1518

"Let proportion be found not only in numbers and measures, but also in sounds, weights, times, and positions, and what ever force there is."
~ Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)
Manuscript K

"He who loves practice without theory is like the sailor who boards ship without a rudder and compass and never knows where he may cast."
~ Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)

"He who wishes to be rich in a day will be hanged in a year."
~ Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)

"One can have no smaller or greater mastery than mastery of oneself."
~ Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)

However lastly, Da Vinci would take a supportive view of Besslers passion and designs, yet skeptical view of PMM's.


"Inequality is the cause of all local movements."
~ Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)

"Simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication."
~ Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)

"O speculators about perpetual motion, how many vain chimeras have you created in the like quest? Go and take your place with the alchemists (seekers after gold.)
"
~ Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)
The Notebooks, 1508–1518


More Da Vinci here.


Let's indeed hope 2005 is another year for paradign shift FE/OU innovations.

Mr J. Collins,

Thank you very much for your text.
It has been a great pleasure reading it.

Perhaps should you (also) try your skill at writing Limericks... :))

For examples:
All hail to the town of Limerick
Which provides a cognomen, generic,
For a species of verse
Which, for better or worse,
Is suppoted by laymen and cleric.

or:
A mathematician named Hall
Has an hexahedronical ball,
And the cube of its weight
Times his pecker, plus eight,
Is his phone number - give him a call.

Best of all and happy new year to you and all FE fellows.

Good inspiration. Thanks John.

Almost time for the 2010 prediction John, seems like just yesterday.

[John Collins]

I predict 2010 will be the year we remember when
Bessler’s wheel turned again - and again and again.

Sorry I couldn't resist ;-)

[John Collins]

Now you've started something FWG2!

I’m not a poet and I know it
But dreadful rhymes can sometimes
Sway the way that people weigh
Up information. Revelations,
Oft ignored, by such as I who have explored
Pseudoscience long dismissed and missed
A real solution to our energy pollution.

JC

Dear John,
Don't discourage yourself.
Combining all collected informations here on this forum we will be sucessfull very soon.
We are really close...

[FunWithGravity2]

I predict that 2009 was the year, ;)

Dave

Your poetry is inspirational JC

[bluesgtr44]

There are those times, I must admit,
That I could turn away and really quit.
So easy to do for those who whim,
Until they happened to hear about him!

So here I am believing it so,
That this man made the wheel go.
Revolving around with a beautiful spin,
I can't help but to try again...and again....and again.

P.S. This is, in and of itself a perpetuity that will not be recognized.

edit: I made this up quite some time ago as a challenge to myself in the spirit of wordsmithing. Being a song writer of sorts, I thought it fitting.

"Now I was mad, Hannah Dam saw I won!"

Are we not drawn onward, we few, drawn onward to new era?

[John Collins]

Very circular Stewart - and very apt for a bi-directional wheel.

Against my belief that there must be five mechanisms -
Never odd or even.

Great one, Stewart....is this one of your own?
