Yesterday, the world NEARLY changed

Perhaps the only thing more impressive than claimed possession of an "infinite free energy" machine is the refusal to give-in under the weight of the world's skepticism-turned ire. "We screwed up," admitted Steorn's CEO Sean McCarthy yesterday after their failed demonstration, but "if we were here to rig a demo, we'd all be here watching a wheel spin." As shyster-Sean explains, Steorn brought three systems to London, one of which they got working for "about 4-hours" on Tuesday night. As we all know by now, it mysteriously ceased to function after it was moved to the display room. At that point, there where there was a breakdown of the watchmaker-quality bearings causing friction to "go to hell." Sean no longer attributes the failings to the lamp heat, lamenting only that his team doesn't know the cause. Moving forward Sean alluded to a less "covert and cryptic" Steorn as they attempt to regain the confidence (they had it?) of the public and more importantly, their shareholders who are more than likely discussing matters with legal counsel at this very moment. Still, he promised to return. Next time, however, the system will already be up and running before the demonstration is announced. While we seriously doubt they've circumvented the laws of our physical world, half the fun of any good scam (and this is a good'n) is picking apart the components to reveal the truth.

For those of you not in the know, Steorn is an Irish corporation that claims to have cornered the market on, for all intensive purposes, the 'perpetual motion machine.' If you go to their website you'll see them speaking about the 'Orbo' and what it entails (in no specific terms of course.)

 

Anyway, the world awaits this development.

Now, imagine, for a fleeting second, that it did actually work. The very first thing any government in their right mind would do, is issue the patent, and then assume it via provisions of eminent domain.  The company would get a marginal buyout, possibly, and the world would stop and spin on its poles launching everyone off into space. In one fell swoop, life as we know it would change forever, and quite literally, famine and want would cease. It would revaluate the entire global monetary system.

Stuff to dream about (though will never, ever happen.)
