Although I still don't agree with it. All one has to do is patent the technology, then give (or offer irrefutable demos of) prototypes to a few influential people, starting at the bottom of the chain. You may not be able to convince high level reporters at the New York Times to accept at first, but you could certainly convince a reporter at a small city newspaper or a local radio personality. People are still coming out and watching scam demonstrations. I know I can get people out to see the real thing. Once some small-time people see that it's true, they'll be more than willing to help you spread the word. Something this extraordinary would, after an initial spark, likely market itself. Hell, I'd go aggressive with it. Show up at the studios of a national talk show host or other media celebrity with the device and beg for 30 seconds of the guy's time. I know I could convince one of the big boys to give me 30 seconds, and in that time, get him interested enough for a full demo. Then take it on tour - demo it to crowds at public events, other big time media personalities, etc. Finding investors to finance a production facility after some serious national exposure would be a cakewalk, and actually getting the national exposure would not be that hard. Free energy would be "cancer cure" big and easy to market once you get around the "This is probably another scam" problem. Solving that is as easy as a captivating personality offering up a rapid demo with no hidden agenda. Tell you what, someone here invent the device and build a prototype. ;-) I'll handle the business & marketing end of it since you all seem more skeptical of this side of the coin. -Ryan ------------------------ Yahoo!
