    I really don't have time to go into depth explaining this all to you, send me an email if you really are interested, and I'll sit down next time I have a chance and lay it out. In the meantime, a few comments to clarify some things.

    0 degrees kevlin == absolute zero == all atomic/molecular motion stopped. It has nothing to do with distruction of anything. :) They've actually managed to completely stop light inside a gas, "Storing" it so-to-speak. Photons, however, not atoms.

    Oh, and two words for you all concerning this hydrogen/water/etc discussion. "Fuel cell".

    Cheers,
    David

    Ok, I took the time to read through the link posted originally. It's complete nonsense. Energy in the dimension of time. Hm. From my brief read, it seemed as though he was trying to point out some kind of lossless magnetic->electric conversion based on the way they handle electromagnetic waves. He/She/They/It mention "longitudinal electromagnetic" waves over and over as the prime method in which their device works.

    Let's discuss these waves.

    This was a brief summary written by a friend, Alexander V. Frolov.

    Within he ties longitudinal electromagnetic waves to zero point photons (which in turn are named zero point energy). The photons have "energy" yet are motionless. I'm assuming the creator of this "device" is referring to this as his breakthrough method of energy production. After sifting through the dozens of lines of "dipole" and so forth explanations (which are irrelevant to zero point energy, I might add), I found no mention of any method of somehow "harvesting" these non-moving photons to produce electricity. Not only that, but he says it is an infinite source of electricity, that will never cease to exist, I am assuming because of some "rift" in his time-energy dimension (that he believes exists), constantly "leaking" this "energy" into his little device. He's speaking like it's some kind of zero point photon battery, storing photons that travel dimensionally into his device. Well, if they are zero point photons, I'd like to know how they are travelling, at all. All in all, it's a load of BS. That's my personal opinion.

    For those who aren't into scientific exploration, let me put it in real world terms. If he had this kind of wonderus device truly functioning, he'd be a trillionaire right now, with his own island, living the good life. Not making crap webpages that hurt your eyes and writing poor explanations that any third grader with a scientific dictionary and a little patience would have been able to write up. The world would be operating on these devices, and all the nuclear reactors/coal burning generators/etc would be long gone. There would be instant adoption of this technology. Patents are granted to all kinds of random stuff, lots of it non-working. With thousands of patents submitted daily, who knows how much trash gets through. I assure you they didn't review his device and test to make sure it is functional. :)

    Cheers,
    David
