I have been following this story for a while now. I really hope this turns out to be validated and true.
If this is validated it means free energy, and an end to global warming.
Something to hope for huh!

Keep us posted please!
I'm fascinated and troubled. This is a little like saying "we've created a machine to travel backwards and forwards through time." It stands all the known laws of physics on its head. As they said in the video, the first two laws of thermodynamics -- of the finite nature of energy, and of entropy -- have never been challenged.
It raises a troubling question, one which I can only consider within a science fiction framework: is there a danger in creating energy? What happens if we create more energy than the universe can store? As we're creating energy, we're no longer using the energy we would have used before we started creating it. What do we do with the extra energy?
These sound like silly questions, but they are really quite serious. Think about it: all the energy that exists in the universe has always existed. No energy has been lost, and no energy has been gained. The amount of energy has been constant for billions of years (or five thousand, if you're a right-winger).
Now we create energy. I find it a bit scary.
If permanent magnets wear out over time, then that may be a reason why... they are constantly giving away their energy.
Just a thought.
The Thermodynamic Cops are writing up violations now.
"Free" energy abounds. Examples: wave tide converters at the shore, huge orbital wands creating flux in the magnetic fields to bleed off electromagnetic power, generators every 10 feet on a river, invisi-wind vanes and sun energy concentrators on every roof in the world... why isn't it happening? Because it won't generate the greatest power of all - ever increasing monetary profitability.
Let's change that! Let's speak up, speak out, and actualize what is good for us, and good for our world!
Well, as we all know now, light manifests itself in two dimensions...er, "aspects" might be a better word: rays and waves. In its wave aspect, it oscillates, or has both a positive and negative undulation, so it is in a sense going forward and backward. In its ray aspect, it is always moving forward. So the wave aspect is ALSO always moving forward, even though it is pulsating (or oscillating, or whatever) positively and negatively, "forward" and "backward." If you were moving along with a ray of light at the speed of light, you could actually see the pulsations of light, or at least the positive pulse, for the negative pulse would be (relatively, anyway) moving away from you, into the "past." But keep in mind, everything -- you, the wave, the ray -- would be moving in the same direction at the same time.
Um...the Doppler effect fits in here somewhere...
And, oh, forget it.
What I know came from a sci-fi novel where scientists realised that they could theoretically use this property of light to send messages back into the past.
Then they realised that they didn't need to work out how to do it, they only had to work out how to receive the message, someone in one of the infinite future Earths would work out how to send the message, and would know precisely who and where to send it to because they would already know that a receiver had been built.
So, as soon as they switched the receiver on in the present, a message was waiting for them from the future...
Ponder on that for a while, that'll make your brain itch.
Hey you know AdGuy always gets the last word! ;)
