i made a sketch of a device i think might fulfill the criteria for perpetual motion, but there is one or two elements i can't get quite right. if i can find the sketch, i'll scan and post it for critique. if not, i'll try to remember it well enough to draw.

with regard to cold fusion, were the scientists to release the specifications of the kit they use, so that we can set to replicating it in our workshops, we might be able to determine the worth of what they've been wailing about all these years.

open-sourced it can be solved tomorrow. it works, or it don't.

other scientists have seen that open-sourcing a project yields dividends. amateur cosmologists are invited to participate in sun-scanning to highlight artefacts for the scientists to study. by delegating some of the simply understood, they are saving themselves years of tedium doing the search themselves.

i'm currently working on a gadget to cheaply generate oxygen. if carbon-dioxide is such a big problem, why not offset it by adding more of other gases to the atmosphere? could plant masses of fruit and nut trees too. haven't got far with that, though i reckon my 'dying batteries' are producing something; bubbles come off each end.
