DUBLIN (AFP) - An Irish company has thrown down the gauntlet to the worldwide scientific community to test a technology it has developed that it claims produces free energy.

The company, Steorn, says its discovery is based on the interaction of magnetic fields and allows the production of clean, free and constant energy -- a concept that challenges one of the basic rules of physics.

I can't say I believe it one way or the other but I find it interesting. I've considered maybe they're unintentionally channeling energy that already exists from somewhere else. Could this mean our universe really did come from nothing at all?

I hope this discovery doesn't disapper, like orgone.

Most amazing jew boots

You guys are trying to call bullshit and it very well may be but keep in mind the people who discovered this are trying to get people to test it and examine it as opposed to making the bold claim that it truly works. They've also tested it for themselves over the past three years.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Well here's a question. Let's say that humanity (or a more evolved species derived from us) somehow continues to exist for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. In that time span - assuming we remain as intelligent as we are now on average or continue to become more intelligent - do you think that not a single scientific law will be proved false or modified in a significant way? Do you really have that much faith in what we currently think we know?

Personally, I have an open mind and am willing to challenge my understanding of anything. I look at everything I know more so as a logical assumption than as a universal truth. One plus one is two and for me to second-guess this every time I did basic arithmetic would be wasted time, sure. Although I am 99.999999999% sure that 1 + 1 = 2, a part of me still leaves open the possibility that this is false or at least a half-truth of some kind, because I acknowledge the limitations of my brain and I acknowledge my own subjectivity.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Man you guys almost make it sound to me like you don't want them to have discovered this; like the notion of an aspect of science getting shat on by sheer accident is disturbing or makes you uncomfortable. Granted they do have to prove it at some point for it to be totally valid, but it's not like they're already saying that what they think they've discovered is fact although I'm sure they'd like it to be. I personally think they're just as interested in finding out how they're wrong as they are finding out if they're right.

All this nonsense about it being a hoax or a marketing ploy is just ridic. Like the mainstream population gives a shit or is paying attention to this.

Double Post:
I would lol if it turned out that creating energy caused an equal amount of energy to be destroyed. Then the law would be entirely broken and yet it would be sensible.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
