Many great inventions have been suppressed in the past
Today there are more great(!) inventions begging to be developed,
free from the powerful, energy barrons of today, whose power
and wealth will be devistated if the status quo is altered -
not in their favor. But, "no problem", companies are still
preserving their positions. Buying politicians so easily, giving
them more than enough to defeat those who who won't be bought, who
want "a change". Rare enough are the Stanley Meyer's, the Ed Gray's
and, the Kennedys, etc. who cannot be bought or defeated.
A motor run solely by magnets was originally suggested by
Nikola Tesla in 1905.
Today:
"Engineers of Hitachi Magnetics Corp. of California
have stated that a motor run solely by magnets is
feasible and logical but the politics of the matter
make it impossible for them to pursue developing a magnet motor
or any device that would compete with the energy cartels."

1929: The President of General Motors predicts 80 mpg cars within 10 years
1973: Shell employees create a 375 mpg car.
Some folks at Shell Oil Co. wrote "Fuel Economy of the Gasoline Engine"
(ISBN 0-470-99132-1); it was published by John Wiley & Sons, New York,
in 1977. On
page 42
Shell Oil quotes the President of General Motors,
he, in 1929, predicted 80 MPG by 1939. Between pages 221 and 223 Shell
writes of their achievements:
49.73 MPG around 1939;
149.95 MPG with a 1947 Studebaker in 1949;
244.35 MPG with a 1959 Fiat 600 in 1968;
376.59 MPG with a 1959 Opel in 1973.

"The hydrosonic pump is actually being commercially manufactured and sold.
The inventor definitely is using the correct approach in that since the pump
is such a new technology, for some time he has been simply building one unit
at a time in various sizes and configurations. He has been purposely
restricting their sale to local installations so he can closely monitor
their performance and incorporate improvements and changes into future units.
As of May 1996, he had 14 units actually installed and operating."
The customers include the Atlanta Police Department, a fire station, a dry
cleaning plant, and a gymnasium. Interestingly, the Hydrosonic pump was
installed in the public buildings by the county engineer after evaluating
the device. The buildings are using the device mainly for heating purposes,
and they have been running for more than a year. The customers have bills
from their local electric utility company showing a year on year decrease
in bills equivalent to 30 per cent.

Stirling Engine
The pistons and flywheels are
driven by the heat from 3 tea-lights.
The Stirling engine was used in small low power applications for nearly two centuries, and saw ever increasing scientific development of its technological potential. The Stirling cycle is notable for its perfect theoretical efficiency; however this ideal has proved notoriously difficult to achieve in real engines, and remains an immense engineering challenge. Nevertheless, the current technology is reasonably advanced, and the designs are useful and versatile. It continues to be used and further developed, and this device holds promise for its ability to provide mechanical or electrical power, heating or cooling in a number of applications wherever a heat source and heat sink are available.

Reader's Digest, November 1950 pages 77 - 79.
Thirty percent increase mileage- - No engine knocking - -

B. "The Most Efficient Ever Invented - - The
Bourke Engine".
HISTORY The history of the Bourke engine and the details about how it
operates are presented in a documentary written by Mr. and Mrs. Bourke
the year before Russell Bourke died (1968). The copy we have on file
was printed by :
D.D Enterprise 5212 Vineland Ave. No. Hollywood California 91601
The first edition price was $3.00 The Bourke engine patents are
#2,122,676 2,122,677 and 2,172,670.
TEXT the Bourke engine operates on the basis of a very simple
principle, yet engineering and development involved is by no means
simple. The basic component is of the opposed-cylinder, two-stroke
type. However, these two-cylinder opposed units can be bolted together
in clusters to achieve an engine of almost any displacement value
desired. The system has co- operative pistons. They are connected by
one rigid connecting rod that shuttles through an oil reservoir in a
sealed crankcase. There are only two moving parts in the engine: a)the
piston connecting rod and b) the crank shaft. The multitude of other
parts found in a conventional internal combustion engine are not
needed in the Bourke engine.
The July 1954 Issue of Hot Rod Magazine Ran A fairly detailed report
on the Bourke engine.
Its chief claims are these:
There are fewer moving parts, therefore, the engine is lighter in
weight than most motors, yet it has far greater power out-put (the
engine can be operated at much higher rpm without appreciable power
fall-off). The engine has no mechanical sounds and can be operated in
any position desired.
We would like to draw special attention to one additional point.
The Bourke engine operates on low quantity fuel with practically no
exhaust fumes, no frame and very little heat.
As the reporter for Hot Rod Magazine said:
" Practical economy was the designer's prime requisite. It
can be manufactured cheaply, can be run for exceptionally long periods
of time without need of being torn down (parts in one unit after more
than 2,000 logged hours are still as good as new - - as is the oil
that was used during the entire running time) and it is economical to
operate".
C. "Revolution of the Free-Piston Engine"
Popular Mechanics, September 1950 pages 155-188+
This is another new (in America) concept of engineering.
"In your present engine there are masses of moving metal - -
connecting rods, crankshaft wheel. The new engine eliminates these
parts. Two piston slide freely in a horizontal cylinder."
This engine requires no spark plug. It is quiet, vibration free,
light. It is ideal for aircraft.
"Further, the free-piston is by all odds the most efficient
power plant ever developed -- an important point since the world
stock pile of fuels is steadily dwindling"
This report goes on to give the history of the free- piston
development. There were crude models built as long as 100 years ago.
In the 1920's the Swedes invented an awkward model. The Germans used
such an engine in their war-time submarines.
The United States Navy began studying the concept in 1943.
The report goes on to state:
"Applications to automobiles appear to be well in the future,
but such applications have dazzling appeal. A free-piston engine would
be unbelievably quiet and vibrationless. It would be so small that it
could be placed anywhere that it would give 50 to 60 miles per gallon
of fuel - - - diesel oil or kerosene."
The report concludes:
"In sum, there is hardly a place where fuel is converted
into energy that the new engine won't find application. It is more
versatile than the diesel, three times more economical than the
open-cycle gas turbine, cheaper than the steam plant. Prophecy is
never completely safe with any development as new as this. But
everything indicates that the free-piston engine will have quite as
large an impact on all our lives in the second half of the 20th
century as the conventional internal-combustion engine had during the
first half."
The above report is not an isolated article. Books have been
written on the free-piston engine. Its use in stationary power plants
is widespread. Details of its production and how it works are found in
Business Week, April 25, 1953, pages 101 - 106.
FURTHERMORE General Motors Corporation has a free-piston car. See the report
with accompanying photos in the July 1956 issue of Popular Science.
This report states:
"Like true gas turbines, it isn't finicky about fuel.
Experimental engines have run on such a off beat hydrocarbons as
whale and peanut oil. One big advantage is the dilution of exhaust
gases by compressed air, which means that turbine blades need not spin
in destructive high temperatures."
"G.M spokesman do not foresee commercial highway use for five
to 10 years."
Remember, this was written in 1956.
Have you seen a free-piston powered car recently ?
D. "Amazing Swirl Engine Boosts Mileage 60%",
Mechanix Illustrated, October 1966, pages 86 - 88+
This, another new concept in engineering, was developed by Dr.
Julius E. Witzky. Testing the engine was carried out at the Southwest
Research Institute, San Antonio, Texas.
The engine will run smoothly on a variety of fuels including but
not limited to gasoline or diesel. The overall air-to-fuel ratios are
100:1 at low rpm and idle. The fuel economy is about 60 percent
greater than today's carbureted engine. The smog emissions are greatly
reduced.

Another person's notes on a few
1933 thru 1936 - Charles Nelson Pogue is issued several patents on his
vaporizer type carburetors, and "claims of 200 miles per gallon"
crop up all over the world... He never gets production off the ground and
his carburetor fades away - But Mr. Pogue and his carburetor have been a
legend in the field of fuel efficiency ever since...
More than 50 years ago - George Arlington Moore was issued more patents on
fuel efficiency systems than any man in history to date...
The late 50's and early 60's - The Kendig and Fish variable venturi
carburetors have some very interesting mileage figures... The Fish even
gets into production on a very small scale - but for reasons unknown, both
of these carburetors fade away over the next few years...
1968 - Ford Motor Company begins experiments with an engine that has a
different kind of combustion chamber... A fuel injected version of 430 cid
is tested and runs very well on an Air/Fuel mixture of 26:1 - Ford
experimented with this engine for possible production by 1985 - Obviously
it was never put into production...
1973 - The annual Shell Oil Company employees contest turns out a world
record for high mileage at Wood River, Illinois... A highly modified Opel
of 1959 vintage sets the record with 376.59 miles per gallon - World
record mileage is now well over 2,000 miles per gallon from very
specialized vehicles designed to do one thing - get the most mileage
possible...
1974 - An article from "Mechanix Illustrated", about Humidifier Type Fuel
Systems, tells of a man by the name of LaPan - who claims to get from
"60 to 100 miles per gallon" with his system...
1976 - A modified Ford Pinto equipped with a turbocharged Nissan diesel
engine is tested and gets up to 80 miles per gallon...
1977 - Tom Ogle, of El Paso, Texas, claims to get 100 miles per gallon on
his 1970 Ford Galaxie with V-8 engine, weighing 4600 lb... Running one
round trip test from El Paso, Texas to Demming, New Mexico and back used
only two gallons of gas... His Vapor Fuel System eliminates the standard
carburetor, only has a three gallon tank, and emits no carbon dioxide or
unburned hydrocarbons...
1977 - A standard VW Rabbit diesel with turbocharger, is independently
tested and gets up to 55 miles per gallon...
1979 - Ralph Moody Jr., of Oak Hill, Florida, gets 84 miles per gallon
from his modified Ford Capri, which has been equipped with a turbocharged
4-cyl Perkins diesel engine...
Are all these stories true..? You bet they are, and these are just a few
- There are many many more...
Many thousands of backyard inventors have come up with systems that get a
much better efficiency from gasoline than does the modern carburetor or
fuel injection, and a few have built systems that get a drastic
increase...
The phantom carburetor of Charles Pogue has disappeared from the public
eye, and re-appeared many times over the past 60 years or so... Every few
years some rumors and stories begin to circulate about someone trying to
manufacture and market the carburetor, but for some unknown reason the
stories die out and the carburetor never makes it to market... Many people
have built the Pogue and some have been very successful...
A letter from Mr. Gail Dye of Benton, IL - claims that he has been offered
a $100,000 a year job to quit playing around with these things... We
haven't heard from him since - Maybe he took the job...?
A man in Richardson, TX was selling plans to a carburetor modeled after
the Pogue but used in conjunction with the standard carburetor for
starting and cold running... An automatic thermostat switches over to the
Pogue type carburetor when temperature is hot enough to vaporize the
fuel... Upper chamber is 5 inches high and 7 inches diameter, lower
chamber is 2 inches deep and 4 inches diameter... He claims to have
installed the device on a Lincoln and has obtained up to 100 miles per
gallon... He was doing business as: FUELMIZER - Box 6025 - Richardson, TX
75080 - Recent inquiries go unanswered...
John Wesling - Preston, MN worked on his idea to use both heat and vacuum,
with a device made up of modified carburetor parts and a heat exchanger to
double his mileage in 1981...
Joe Lasante - Bossano, Alberta, Canada was working on a system he said
works quite well and is simple to make... He says he can get at least 30
MPG on his 1978 Dodge pickup with a 360 cid V-8 engine... The engine runs
Very smooth and it has more power than it did without the modification...
Ken MacNeill, Box 9478, Winter Haven, FL says he can effectively double
the mileage of Most Any Car...
Richard Goranflo, 109 Longleaf Lane, Altamont Springs, FL once gave
seminars on the subject of high mileage - And claims to get from 45 MPG to
65 MPG on his 1976 Cadillac with 425 cid V-8 engine...
Bernard Wherry, Box 148, St Marys, WV - worked on his high mileage
carburetor design for many years... He eventually ended up with three
prototypes... With one giving him 60 MPG on a Chrysler with V-8 engine...
He wanted to market the carburetors, but without the necessary financing
he was unable to do so... He had turned over the designs to a firm who
claimed they would market one of the three designs, but to date the Wherry
carburetors are not on the market...
Ray Covey of El Paso, TX - worked on a high mileage carburetor modeled
after a Sgrignoli design for over a year, and ended up getting 65 MPG on
his Chrysler V-8... With an occasional 100 MPG... After applying for a
patent, Covey began marketing plans to his device and installed several
units for a few of his customers... Covey built another design similar to
a Ford Motor Company patent and started marketing plans to the new design
too... Covey seems to be able to take ideas from others and make them work
very well - To our knowledge, he has no original ideas of his own in the
field of high mileage carburetion, but he seems to does do very well with
the ideas of others...
Richard Paul, Janesville, WI - Averages 80 MPG on his Oldsmobile Toronado,
and says he has achieved as high as 149 MPG on more than one occasion...
He says he expects to top 180 MPG with the newest design he is working
on...
Herb Hansen - Elgin, IL - Built a vaporizing carburetion system for use
with alcohol Fuel... Using 140 proof alcohol in a Ford Pinto he says he
gets 70 to 75 MPG and the engine produces more power than it does on
gasoline with a standard carburetor...
Fred Holste of Jarrettsville, MD - Claims to have topped 45 MPG with his
design for a vapor carburetor... He says he will deny having done so if we
print his name though...
This writer remembers seeing a Chrysler gas turbine car on the streets of
Portland, Oregon in the early 1960's. Actually, Chrysler Corporation made
about 50 turbine cars at that time and "loaned" them out to the general
public in various cities around the country.
THE TURBINE
The turbine engine is not a new concept. They have been hard at work
for many, many years. They run stand-by generators, drive Army troop
trains, have powered landing craft, Marine hydrofoil boats and Air Force
helicopters, not to mention the fact they fly over-head every day in jet
airplanes.
As far as 1946, Captain Eddie Rickenbacker predicted that nearly all
cars soon would be powered by gas turbines.
TURN BACK THE CALENDAR
Let us go back to the years 1963 and 1964 and read the headlines:
"America's First Turbine Car" Look Magazine, June 4, 1963
"Big Test - - -Chrysler's Turbine Car" Time, May 10, 1963

"Turbine in a Truck; Experimental Gas Turbine Truck"
Business Week, October 31, 1964
"Wh-o-o-o-sh, Here Comes the Turbine" Hot Rod Magazine, July 1963
Further, the turbine car was the subject of repeated nation-wide
television coverage, newspaper articles . . . .even books were written
about the "turbine car".
The turbine engine has many distinct advantages over the piston
engine. It has about one-fifth as many moving parts. There is only one
spark plug and it is used only for starting purposes (should never need
replacing). The troublesome ignition problems found in piston engines
are eliminated. There is no distributor. Also , no radiator needed,
because the engine is air-cooled. Turn the key and the engine fires
immediately, even in sub-zero temperatures. There is no warming period
required after the car is started. Turn on the heater and you get
instant heat.
The car drives similar to a conventional auto. However, those who
tested the car reported that the turbine operated more smoothly than the
piston engine, there was less noise and less vibration.
The turbine is clean-burning engine. Carbon monoxide gas is
practically non-existent, as the fuel is burning completely, this adds
almost nothing to air- pollutants. Engine oil never becomes contaminated
or dirty because it doesn't come in contact with the fuel or combustion.
Since there are fewer moving parts, engine oil consumption is
practically eliminated. Five quarts of oil should last a life time.
The turbine is a light-weight engine, and should be expected to run
300,000 miles. The engine requires very little maintenance. (This is
substantiated by the low maintenance need by the airline companies for
their jets.)
FUEL
Another marled advantage over the piston engine is the fact that the
turbine will deliver high power while using almost any fuel will burn in
a test tube. It will operate on diesel, unleaded, regular or premium
gasoline, kerosene, peanut oil, French perfume or brandy. Actually,
synthetic, non-fossil fuel or even "home made" fuels would propel the
turbine car very nicely.
DOCUMENTATION: All of the facts and figures cited above are
documented in the various reports, test results and articles already
listed at the beginning of this section.
MOST OFTEN ASKED QUESTIONS
What about the extreme heat from a turbine's exhaust ?
In 1954, George Huebner(at one time executive researcher engineer
with Chrysler), "cofounded the experts by developing a rotating heat
exchanger to harness the heat thrown out by the exhaust This was the key
to making the engine practical and efficient enough to be worth
developing. " Business Week, March 28, 1964, page 76.
On page 75 in the same magazine, there is a picture of gas station
attendants with hands extended at the exhaust outlet. One report states
that a kitten could sleep there and not be burned.
What about the price ?
"Chrysler claims that it can produce turbine engines that are
competitive in price with their piston counterparts, if turned out in
the same quantities
Business Week, January 6, 1962, page 37.
What was the public response to their test-driving the 50
experimental models ?
When the public first learned that Chrysler was planning to loan out
theses cars for family driving., the company was flooded with mail . . .
. so many wanted to participate. Chrysler wanted those selected to
represent the average citizen. Among those not selected were William
Randolph Hearst Jr. Gen. Cutis Lemay, Ernest Borgnine and Lyndon
Johnson(while he was still Vice-President).
Finally, the participants were selected on the basis of
geography(one in every state), climate and road terrain.
RESULTS
The cars were reluctantly returned to Chrysler with rave notice from
the borrowers:
"The first man to get a turbine car, Chicagoan Richard Vlaha, told
Business Week: `I never drove anything out of Detroit like that before.
It is really terrific.' And his comments are restrained, compared to
some others.
Another man reports: - - -"he can get hardly any work done at
the office, everybody is so interested in the car . . . . . "
Business Week, March 28, 1964, pages 75-76
" `I just wish I could buy it after the test period is over, it's
terrific,' said Mrs. Estelle Center, a housewife in Columbus, Ohio, and
one of the four "typical drivers . . . . .."
Newsweek, December 30, 1963 , page 50
COMPLAINTS
Complaints have been minor ones:
"Enthusiasm, says Anderson, hasn't waned, to say the
least." "His test market group agrees."
Business Week, March 28, 1964, page 83.
* * * * *
WHERE IS THE TURBINE CAR ?
All of us identify with a David who is up against a giant Goliath.
It is easy to get some people to believe that the auto manufactures or
oil companies are like giant Goliath who buy-up worthwhile inventions
and "lock up" the design. This is done so more gas and oil can be sold-
- or more car parts can be sold - - and the rich get richer. These
stories are common.
Actually, from the published record there does seem to be a grain
of truth to this kind of reasoning. At times there does seem to be a
"collusion" between government agency officials, the automobile
manufactures and the oil companies.
However, rather than this
writer offering a judgment as to the truth of these stories, let us
sample the evidence - - then you be the judge.
"Chrysler is careful about its claims for the future. It is
uncomfortably aware
of what a major shift to gas-turbine engines would do to the auto
industry's vast investment in the piston engine and to the oil
industry's stake in high-octane fuels, is also mindful of
difficulties yet unforeseen in widespread use of evidence that the
public is willing to give the new engine a try."
Time, May 10, 1963, page 90.
The public liked the turbine. It was well received.
It is a proven engine. Its wide use in aviation proves the fact.
The turbine was successfully adapted to a car. The written record
between 1952 and 1965 proves that fact.
The turbine car was ready to go. Company officials state the fact.
Yet: Chrysler is "uncomfortably aware" that
1) . . .a simpler, more efficient engine would not require many
parts; would require less maintenance and in the long run, less money to
the auto related industry.
Also, they were aware of the fact that:
2) ... .. this engine will operate on fuels other than gasoline - -
- thus the oil industry's (money) stake must be considered.
Is this Time comment an isolated one ?
Let us dig deeper.
From this point on to the end of the chapter, notice how certain
high-ranking government officials, key oil companies and the automobile
manufacturers are indeed closely related . . . .as someone has said,"
they are cozy companions".
Since gasoline is taxed, the more gasoline burned - - the more
dollars flow into government coffers.

"The American Motorist: No.1 Tax Sucker", Cornet, August
1952, pages 40 - 41.
What do you think that figure is today ?
* Actually, gas and automobile "excise" taxes are simply
another INCOME TAX.
Certainly the evidence proves that the government collects
multi-millions of dollars from the gasoline tax.

A CLOSER LOOK
We've already shown proof positive that other cars have been
invented which do not require gasoline as a fuel. But, for now our
subject is the turbine car.
Have the auto manufactures "locked up" this invention ?
A. General Motors Company had a turbne vechile on public
display as early as January 1954, pages 66 - 70, also April 1954.
This report asks the question : "How soon before we would expect to
see the turbine car for sale ?" Answer : "5 to 10 years, maybe longer."
B. In 1954, Chrysler Corporation revealed their gas-turbine engine
after " 9 years of top secret research". See Business Week, March 29,
1954, page 67.
This report states "that Chrysler's development may make gas
turbines in cars years rather than decades away."
C. Ford Motor Company has a turbine car and a turbine
truck, See Mechanix Illustrated, May 1967, page 62 - 65 and Business
Week, October 31, 1964, page 28. See picture of the vechiles.
When will this turbine car be ready for the public ?
" Top Ford officials estimate five years before turbine trucks
appear on the highway, passenger cars should follow three to five years
later."
Actually, according to written evidence, the turbine car has been
ready for years.
D. "A First in Automotive History : We Drove A Turbine Car
Coast-To-Coast" by George J. Huebner Jr. Executive Engineer, Research,
Chrysler Corporation. Popular Mechanics, June 1956.
This article shows pictures of the car, its coast-to-coast route
and gives high praise for the turbine. The turbine expected to
revolutionize the auto industry within 10 years.
TIME TABLE
E. "Timetable for Next Car Engine : The Gas Turbine and Its Future"
Business Week, April 2, 1955, page 134+
Since the turbine car would be greatly affect the auto and oil
industries, the writer of this report asks the auto manufactures and oil
company officials:
"When should we expect the turbine car to be available to the public?"
The report goes on to say that although the auto manufactures can
now produce the turbine cars, it will usher in major changes ...
because the turbine car will run longer with less maintenance required.
The article points out that :
"80% of the reports submitted to the oil companies say
automotive turbines are a sure thing within 10 years. "
Yet the report also point to the fact that the oil industry must
face major changes when the turbine is mass-produced, The turbine can
operate on home made fuels - - - it doesn't need to burn gasoline.
F. Even auto parts companies began to prepare for turbine car :
"Parts Makers Prepare for Turbine" Business Week, May 19,
1956, page 64.
CONCLUSION
The turbine is a proven engine that has one major drawback. It does
not have to burn gasoline as a fuel !
* Oil companies refine gasoline - - they want it sold as a fuel.
* Government agencies collect taxes from gasoline - - they want it
sold as a fuel.
* Politicians - - get much of their campaign funds from oil
* Auto manufacturers - - "are uncomfortably aware of what a major
shift to gas-turbine engines would do to the auto industries vast
investment in the piston engine. ..."
We must conclude that this gas saving, oil conserving, non-polluting
engine is: ON THE SHELF
Throughout history, experts tell innovators that their inventions
are impossible. A few examples:
The English Academy of Science laughed at Benjamin Franklin when he
reported his discovery of the lightning rod, and the Academy refused
to publish his report.
A gathering of German engineers in 1902 ridiculed Count Ferdinand von
Zeppelin for claiming to invent a steerable balloon. (Later, Zeppelin
airships flew commercially across the Atlantic.)
Major newspapers ignored the historic 1903 flight of the Wright
brothers airplane because Scientific American suggested the flight
was a hoax, and for five years officials in Washington, D.C. did not
believe that the heavier-than-air machine had flown.
1. THE SPACE ENERGY CONVERTER
This class of inventions could wipe out oil crises and help solve
environmental problems. More commonly called free energy or fuelless
electric generators, they put out more power than goes into them from any
previously recognized source. No batteries, no fuel tank and no link with
a wall socket. Instead, they tap an invisible source of power. Such
unorthodox clean energy-producing devices exist today and were built as
far back as the l9th century.
Forget the Rube Goldberg mechanical perpetual motion contraptions;
they had to stop eventually. In contrast, new solid-state (no moving
parts) energy converters are said to draw from an energy field in
surrounding space. This source of abundant power is known by physicists
as the zero-point quantum fluctuations of vacuum space. Zero-point refers
to the fact that even at a temperature at
which heat movement in
molecules stops cold, zero degrees Kelvin, there is still a jiggling
movement, said to be from interdimensional fluctuations or cosmic energy.
Magnetism and vortexian or spin-upon-a-spin motions seem to line up these
random fluctuations of space and put them to work, as in the Searl Effect
(Atlantis Rising, first issue). - [ now known to astronomers and
physicists as
"Dark Energy"
]
Inventors give various names to their space-energy converters. In the
1930s a scientist in Utah, T. Henry Moray, invented a Radiant Energy
device powered from the sea of energy in which the earth floats. This sea
that surrounds us, Moray said, is packed with rays which constantly
pierce the earth from all directions, perhaps from countless galaxies.
Converting this cosmic background radiation into a strange cold form of
electricity, his device lit incandescent bulbs, heated a flat iron and
ran a motor. His sons say he was thanked with bullets and other
harassments, but that's another story.
A spiritual commune in Switzerland had a tabletop free energy device
running in greenhouses for years, but members feared that outsiders would
turn the technology into weaponry. Before the commune closed its doors to
snoopers, European engineers witnessed the converter putting out
thousands of watts.
Among the free energy
inventions of John Worrell Keely (1827-1898) is the Hydro
Pneumo-Pulsating-Vacuo motor that used cavitation (implosion) of water.
Although Keely reached an advanced understanding of the science of
vibrations, he failed to develop machines which other people could
operate. Progress continues from other directions, a company in Georgia
is selling water cavitation devices that range from 110 per cent to 300
per cent efficient.
Up in Vancouver, Canada,
Tesla researcher John Hutchison says he has a
feel for the natural flows of a subtle primal energy. In the spring of
1995 he showed his latest invention to the author and a mechanical
engineer. The Hutchison Converter involves crystalline materials and the
principle of electrical resonance. He twirls a few knobs to tune it, and
the energy flow is amplified until it runs a one-inch diameter Radio
Shack motor. The whirring of a small propeller isn't too impressive until
you remember that there are no batteries and the device runs for days at
a time.
The garage inventors come from many backgrounds. Wingate Lambertson
Ph.D. of Florida, former executive director of Kentucky's science and
technology commission, invented a device which converts the space energy
fluctuations into electricity which lights a row of lamps. This dignified
former professor took a roundabout route to the free-energy scene. In the
mid-1960s he read There Is a River by Thomas Sugree, who writes about the
destruction of Atlantis through misuse of a crystal energy collector.
Lambertson's psychic friend later offered to collaborate on replicating
the first Atlantean energy converter, but Lambertson eventually turned to
his own knowledge of ceramics and metals to develop an energy converter.
Neither his nor other known zero-point energy conversion methods of today
are based on the first Atlantean crystal method, because the researchers
found better methods. Also, the concept of a central power station
providing electric power to a nation is obsolete, says Dr. Lambertson.
Small energy converters will follow the path of the personal
converter.
2. COLD FUSION
In Japan, cold fusion is called New Hydrogen Energy, and that
oil-dependent nation welcomes successful experiments. In contrast, two
pioneering experimenters were hounded out of North America. David Lewis
described this scene as Heavy Watergate in Atlantis Rising, issue two.
Update: A successful experiment was served up in Monte Carlo in April,
at the Fifth International Conference on Cold Fusion. Clean Energy
Technologies Inc. of Florida demonstrated a cold fusion cell with energy
output as much as ten times more than input. Other companies are also
gambling on this new source of heat energy which could drive electric
generators.
What exactly causes atomic nuclei to fuse, and release energy, without
extreme high temperatures and pressures? A Romanian physicist writing in
Infinite Energy magazine, Dr. Peter Gluck, wonders if it could be only
partly a catalytic nuclear effect, and partly a catalytic quantum effect
providing the capture of the zero-point energy, The ubiquitous z-p
energy.
3. SYSTEM TO SPLIT WATER FOR FUEL BY USING RESONANCE
Another variation on the water-fuel theme relies more on vibrations
than on chemistry. At more than 100 per cent efficiency, such a system
produces hydrogen gas and oxygen from ordinary water at normal
temperatures and pressure.
One example is
U.S. Patent 4,394,230, Method and Apparatus for Splitting
Water Molecules, issued to Dr. Andrija Puharich in 1983. His
method made a single electrical wave form resonate water molecules and
shatter them, which freed hydrogen and oxygen. By using
Tesla's
understanding of electrical resonance, Puharich was able to split the
water molecule much more efficiently than the brute-force electrolysis
that every physics student knows. (Resonance is what shatters a crystal
goblet when an opera singer hits the exact note which vibrates with the
crystal's molecular structure.)
Puharich reportedly drove his mobile home using only water as fuel for
several hundred thousand kilometers in trips across North America.
In a high Mexican mountain pass he had to make do with snow for fuel.
Splitting water molecules as needed in a vehicle is more revolutionary
than the hydrogen-powered systems with which every large auto
manufacturer has dallied. With the on-demand system, you don't need to
carry a tank full of hydrogen fuel which could be a potential bomb.
Another inventor who successfully made fuel out of water on the spot
was the late Francisco Pacheco of New Jersey. The Pacheco Bi-Polar
Autoelectric Hydrogen Generator (U.S. Patent No. 5,089,107) separated
hydrogen from seawater as needed.
A pioneer in breaking down water into hydrogen and oxygen without
heat or ordinary electricity, John Worrell Keely reportedly performed
feats which 20th-century science is unable to duplicate. He worked with
sound and other vibrations to set machines into motion. To liberate
energy in molecules of water, Keely poured a quart of water into a
cylinder where tuning forks vibrated at the exact frequency to liberate
the energy. Does this mean he broke apart the water molecules and
liberated hydrogen, or did he free a more primal form of energy? The
records which could answer such questions are lost. However, a century
later, Keely is being vindicated. One scientist recently discovered that
Keely was correct in predicting the exact frequency which would burst
apart a water molecule.
4. SYSTEM FOR SENDING POWER WIRELESSLY
Look, Mom Earth, no power lines!
Tesla may have wanted to voice such a boast, but it didn't turn out that
way; the world is crisscrossed with transmission lines for the electrical
power grid. His invention for sending electrical power wirelessly wasn't too
popular on Wall Street.
Before the power brokers figured out what he was up to, Tesla built a
tower-topped laboratory near what is now Colorado Springs. He filled the
mountain air with thunderous manmade lightning bolts and pounded the earth
with electrical oscillations as he tested ideas about electrical resonance.
Then he returned to New York to build Wardenclyffe, a complex wooden tower on
Long Island from which he planned to send both communications and power
wirelessly. When banker J. Pierpont Morgan realized Tesla could make it
possible for anyone to stick an antenna in the ground anywhere and get
electrical power, the banker cut off the inventor's funding, blocked other
financial deals that Tesla tried to make [and, is generally considered
responsible for sending thugs to burn down Wardenclyffe].
In recent years, scientists such as James Corum Ph.D. have learned that
Tesla did successfully test a wireless system in Colorado. For example, Tesla
knew specific frequencies associated with the earth-ionosphere waveguide,
knowledge he could not have had in the nineteenth century unless he had sent
electrical oscillations wirelessly.
5. ANTI-GRAVITY DEVICE
In 1923 Townsend T. Brown's simple flying discs demonstrated a connection
between electricity and gravitation. Working along these lines for
twenty-eight- more years, Brown patented (U.S. Patents 2,949,550, 3,018,394
and others) an electrostatic propulsion method. Starting with
two-feet-in-diameter suspended discs flying around a pole at seventeen feet
per second, he increased the size by a third, and the discs flew so fast that
the results were highly classified, said an international aviation magazine
in 1956. Before the end of his life Brown had apparatus that could lift
itself directly when electricity was applied. He died in 1985.
The bottom line: if electrogravitics is developed, we could have an
electric spacecraft technology which does not obey known electromagnetic
principles. The craft would thrust in any direction, without moving engine
parts. No gears, shafts, propellers or wheels.
Coupling effects between electricity or magnetism and gravity are shown by
other experimenters, including David Hamel of Ontario and Floyd Sparky Sweet
of California. At a 1981 symposium in Toronto, Rudolf Zinsser of Germany
demonstrated a device (U.S. Patent 4,085,384) that propelled itself,
according to credible witnesses such as professional engineer George
Hathaway. Zinsser claimed his specifically shaped pulses of electromagnetic
waves altered the local gravitational field.
Hathaway collaborated in the mid-1980s with John Hutchison on
action-at-a-distance experiments in which heavy pieces of metal levitated and
shot toward the ceiling when put in a complex electromagnetic field, and some
metal samples shredded anomalously. Visitors to the laboratory came from Los
Alamos and the Canadian department of defense. (The military is a quantum
leap ahead of the academics in spooky science.)
Read the first issue of Atlantis Rising for a fascinating antigravity
story, John Searle's levity disk generator.
6. A METHOD FOR TRANSMUTATION OF ELEMENTS
Changing atomic elements or making elements appear mysteriously? It sounds
like impossible alchemy, but experimenters recently did this, without Big
Science particle accelerators. These scientists learned from a metaphysician,
Walter Russell (1871-1963). During vivid spiritual experiences, Russell had
seen everything in the universe, from the atom to outer space, being formed
by an invisible background geometry. Russell not only portrayed his visions
in paintings, he also learned science. He was so far ahead that in 1926 he
predicted tritium, deuterium, neptunium, plutonium and other elements.
Recently, professional engineers Ron Kovac and Toby Grotz of Colorado,
with help from Dr. Tim Binder, repeated Russell's 1927 work, which was
verified at the time by Westinghouse Laboratories. Russell found a novel way
to change the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen in water vapor inside a sealed
quartz tube, or to change the vapor to completely different elements. Their
conclusion agrees with Russell: the geometry of motion in space is important
in atomic transmutation. Kovac shorthands that idea to geometry of
space-bending.
These modern shape-shifters speak of Russell's feats such as prolate or
oblate the oxygen nucleus into nitrogen or hydrogen or vice versa. To change
nuclei, they change the shape of a magnetic field. Although they used
expensive analyzing equipment, it is basically tabletop science. No
atom-smashing cyclotron needed; just a gentle nudge using the right
frequencies. Focus and un-focus light-motion, create a vortex and control it.
Cold fusion researchers are also running across strange elements popping
up in their own electrified brews. No one is proposing to make gold and upset
world currencies, but some experimenters aim to clean up radioactive waste by
their novel processes.
7. ORGONE ACCUMULATOR
As Wilhelm Reich, M.D., (1897-1957) moved from Europe to Scandinavia to
America, he left a trail of angry experts in every field he explored, from
psychiatry to politics to sexology, biology, microscopy and cancer research.
His work all led toward one unifying discovery, a mass-free pulsating
life-force energy he named orgone, because he discovered it in living
organisms before finding that it also permeates earth's atmosphere.
Reich's life ended in prison after prolonged conflict with the U.S. Food
and Drug Administration. His books and papers were burned by federal
officials because the FDA had gathered a case against use of his orgone
accumulator for therapy. The accumulator is a box made of layered organic and
inorganic materials; experiments with it show anomalous results. An unusual
temperature rise inside the accumulator indicates limitations of the second
law of thermodynamics. Whether or not concentrated orgone can help with
health problems, the accumulator does defy standard science.
8. The CLOUDBUSTER'
In 1952 Wilhelm Reich invented a method of rainmaking that doesn't involve
cloudseeding with chemicals. Cloudbusting, otherwise known as etheric weather
engineering, invokes principles that are hard for the conventionally trained
mind to accept. The technology is low-tech; point some hollow metal pipes at
the sky and connect their lower ends into running water. But unless you know
both meteorology and orgonamy, please don't try this at home, on our planet.
Among the properties of the primordial energy, orgone, Reich observed, are
its absorption into water, its role in controlling weather and its dangerous
state when excited by radioactivity. The planet doesn't need any more
mad-scientist experimenters manipulating natural systems, but it may need a
more advanced understanding of what nuclear power plant emissions do to the
atmosphere. (Reich's followers warn that the planet's life-force is disturbed
by the excess radioactivity.)
9. THE RIFE MICROSCOPE & FREQUENCY GENERATOR
In the late 1920s Royal Raymond Rife of San Diego invented a
high-magnification, high-resolution light microscope. This meant that he
could see unstained living cells, unlike the dead specimens seen under an
electron microscope. Basically, he developed an electromagnetic frequency
generator which he could tune to the natural frequency of the micro-organism
under study. Further, he learned that certain electromagnetic frequencies
could kill specific bacterial forms.
New discoveries in biophysics not only shed light on the illumination
process of Rife's microscope, they also explain how he could selectively
explode viruses. His concept of shape changing bacteria indicates that
traditional germ-theory dogma is incomplete. Despite documented cures, his
non-drug, painless electrical treatment of diseases was not welcomed by a
powerful medical union.
10. ELECTRONIC TELEPATHY DEVICE
When Patrick Flanagan was a teenager in the early 1960s, Life magazine
listed him as one of the top scientists in the world. Among his inventions
was the Neurophone, an electronic instrument that can program suggestions
into a person directly through skin contact. He made the first Neurophone at
age fourteen, out of kitchen junk, his electrodes were scouring pads made of
fine copper wire and insulated with plastic bags. He then wired the
electrodes to a special transformer attached to a hi-fi amplifier. Holding
the pads on his temples, he could hear, inside his head, music from the
amplifier. Later models automatically adjusted the signal to resonate with
the human subject's skin as part of a complex circuit. Patent officials said
it was impossible for a sound to be heard clearly without vibrating bones or
going through a crucial nerve of the ear, and refused for 12 years to patent
it. The file was re-opened when a nerve-deaf employee at the patent office
did hear with a Neurophone.
At one time Flanagan researched man/dolphin language, on contracts with
the U.S. Navy. This led to a 3-D holographic sound system that could place
sounds in any location in space. He then perfected a Neurophone model which
could be used for subliminal learning that would go into the brain's
long-term memory banks. But after he sent in a patent application on a
digital Neurophone, the Defense Intelligence Agency slapped on a Secrecy
Order and he was unable to work on the device or talk to anyone about it for
five years. This was discouraging, since the first patent took twelve years
to get.
Having helped certain deaf people to hear, Flanagan's next miracle could
be to help the blind to see. All we have to do is stimulate the skin with the
right signals.
With public acceptance of inventions such as space-energy converters and
super-learning devices, perhaps today's innovators will pull the
establishment, kicking and scoffing, into a new world view before the 21st
century. However, figure that there will always be experts to say Forget it:
such things are impossible.

about 50 turbine cars at that time and "loaned" them out to the general
public in various cities around the country.
