I'm still happy to answer genuine questions from people that are actually interested in how this thing works.
And it's NOT perpetual motion. It's a wind powered craft. So it's kind of a losing position when people assure me I haven't discovered a way to get around the laws of physics.
How well does this concept work with watercraft? has it been tried? I can see trouble there.
Has anyone built a hybrid vehicle, sort of combining Greenbird and Blackbird, so you could go fast with and across the direction of the wind?
And as mentioned in the Wired Article, the next thing is to see how fast it can be made to drive into the wind. How goes that? I read the wiki page on this and there was no mention of it.
