Re: Perpetual motion machine

Do you know how you can tell that this is a hoax? He's
got a Public Relations Representative. Here's the spin:

Hyperbole: "He's a MacGuyver"
Victimhood: "[He] compares him to the often mis-understood astronomer Galileo."

The next thing you know, he'll start building cars that
run on water, that is, if the oil industry doesn't prevent
him

The easy way to tell is to do the math. There is just no way to do that at dvd quality with no visibe loss. 24 frames per second 7200 seconds in a 2 hour movie. 172800 frames. 30mb = 31457280 byte.

31457280/172800 yeilds 182.0444444-> Bytes per frame. Does this include sound too?

For his next feat this guy is going to to compress 10^10^10 bytes down to a floppy disk.

10^10^10= 10^(10^10)=10^10000000000= 10 with enough little zeros behind it to circle the earth.

water cars

uhm actually there were working designs for cars that only used some fuel to start up the engine and ran off WATER after that. But the oil industry bought out the designs and that was the end of it.

I can't think of a way that a spontaneous chemical reaction using only water could release energy.

Using electricity, separate the oxygen atoms from the hydrogen atoms, and store them separately. You'll get plenty of energy release when they're recombined
