Hello again Derek !
My status is : I have finally made it trough to "my" mechanican, and we have started do discuss the construction.
Meanwhile I calculate other principles, to see if I find other
principles I can try.
If so, I will have the wheel constructed with possebilety do experiment... So I will try to order some universal parts, that can be used to try other configs as well.
Yes, I have gotten the "no expression" look.
And a litle smile, Thats it !
Only two people have actually showed interest in seing the principle model I am working/testing on.
The rest can sit in my livingroom, asking where do you have this thing? I say, oh in the next room.. OK...
They even don`t want to look at it :-)
If one look, they say....why it is not running hahahah...
Do I see a small oscilation,,,,hahahaha
(they think : poor guy....)
So I have given up communicating with friends etc... about this.
I think there is many reasons why we care and "they" don`t :
We have an unreached potential ( we believe :-)
We have very strong belief in ourselfs
And I think we all always have been more interrested in why a thing work as it does, rather than use the thing...
We think that everything can be improved.
We wonder, why have this and that not been improved more...
A balancing PM machine of DaVinci....
Others think funny machine, but energy can`t be created....
Haha...you know before Newton and Einstein they didn`t know....
I think : why has it not been further improved? Did Einstein know everything, is everybody so dam smart ? NO, I am not dumber than top scientists, just less educated, there is a room for me, and I will prove it :-)
Thats why... (We are nuts,,,,,just kidding, they are nuts, to don`t be interested in such a principle, it will change the world view to such and extend that 50% of known physics theory have to be modified (the outcome of every big theory have to , anyway), "every" physics book have to be re-written, I think that is something...) Basicly it is the inner belief in ourself that do the diference...
And yes, we are "gold diggers", not for money, but for satisfaction of our mind.
Keep working ! One of us will succeed.

: So, is anybody making any progress on their machines?
: I saw Oystein got pulled away by "social events". It's tough to
: be a mad scientist when beer beckons.
: I am working some more on my machine this weekend. I have been
: drafting out designs and building test model pieces so that I
: don't screw up my proto-type.
: I'll be picking up a digital camera over the next month, so I
: hope to have photo's to show.
: Question: When you all attempt to explain "your" model designs
: to other people (friends, family, strangers), do you get a
: vacant stare (no expression) in return? I find it so strange
: that many people are not remotely interested in this stuff. It's
: as if you are speaking a foreign language to them and they don't
: understand a single word. What causes us to have this "drive"
: and for others to be uninterested?
: For the scientific, I would expect that they default to what they
: have been taught, which is "this is impossible" so why waste
: their time thinking about it. But for people that aren't well
: versed in science, shouldn't they be slightly excited by the
: possibility?
: I look forward to hearing everyones progress! Get out there and
: make it happen! I'll do my part.
