Uhh, what a speech. I can aggree to a lot of it.
My 2 cents ... very short, destilled to the basics
nope, I don't like to sit in a tight cage of existing physical laws/restriction. Part of me just wants 'to break out'
nope, I don't like that I have to pay for something so basic like energy
fame and fortune ... to be honest, .. really honest ... I wouldn't say no ...
Cheers

: David, your question to the group is an excellent one and is sure thought-provoking. Here is my two cents' worth:
: I cannot take the establishment's word as gospel:
: Established science has had a history of being proven wrong by those who dare to question it, and new truths lead us closer to correctly understanding the nature of things.
: I believe in gravity power:
: I find it hard to believe that a force as universal and powerful as gravity cannot be harnessed and used as the most consistent energy source available to everyone on this planet. Bessler's wheel, I believe, has been too well documented to have been a hoax, and, on a personal note, several people have told me my own grandfather actually made a working device that he destroyed after some monied people showed a little too much interest in it. Rural legend? Maybe, but he was locally known for being a mechanical genius, and those that told me about it were some of the most credible people I know. Like the quote says, "some things have to be believed to be seen".
: There is a real need to fill:
: There is a universal need for energy, and people are suffering and dying for lack of it. The world needs power for food, clothing and shelter, and locally-generated consistent, inexpensive power can raise the living standards of everyone. Gravity power (and other free energy) would make this world a better place, and that is a goal worth any effort I can put into it. I want to be involved in something worthwhile and not just be a spectator.
: I like to think:
: The process of arriving at solutions to problems is great mental exercise- it sharpens the creative processes and keeps the brain from going stale. I suppose you could call it the thrill of the chase tempered hopefully by wisdom along the way. The thrill of reaching what has diligently been sought after is a natural high that cannot be bought. It sure beats being spoon-fed garbage thoughts and useless information from the media- a sheeple I'm not.
: I like to putter:
: I personally enjoy workshop time, working with materials at hand toward specific practical ends. It's a meditation of sorts- it keeps me moving and makes me feel useful.
: By the way, fame and fortune are not what drives me. I would be happy to tip my hat to anyone who can get us to the next phase where we start focusing on improving and applying working devices. That pretty well says it for me. I'd like to hear from others, too.

: : Just curious about what feeds most of the "free energy" thinkers on this board? What makes you think in spite of what established science thinks, you can do this? Seriously, give it some serious thought. Whats your real drive? I would really like to hear from some of you.
