Schuyler worked for the legal firm that prepared Newman's patent application. Basically, he worked for Newman which is why the Judge Jackson threw him out as a special master and called in someone else. This info came up at Newman's hearing in front of Congress, which is why Congress refused to grant his "energy machine" a patent. Can you say "Conflict of interest?" I knew you could. He may have claimed he never met Newman, but his name appeared on the patent application. I don't care how many Bibles he swore on, but it sounds to me like he perjured himself.

You claim the machine doesn't violate the laws of thermodynamics and then go on to state that the machine creates "greater EXTERNAL energy output than EXTERNAL energy input." That sure sounds like it's creating energy out of nothing and therefore has an efficiency over 100% which most certainly is in violation of the laws of thermo. Read up on Carnot's work.

I don't care how many "eminent scientists" have said the work has validity. Frankly, if they've fallen for this quack, they lost any eminence they might have had. In any case, if I cared to I could probably produce a list of 3000 or more physicists who would state the obvious. Newman is not right.

As to the machine. Can you say "inductance" Do you even know what that means? Why did Newman refuse to let any outside organization test the machine and see if more energy came out that went in? Could it be that he knew he'd be exposed? Let NIST or another reputable government lab with no financial interest in the device test it.

Of course, you'll probably dismiss everything I say since I'm part of the conspiracy of physicists. Doesn't matter, I'm not really talking to you. Go ahead and post as long a message as you like, you'll still be "Not even wrong."

Edited once to modify a possibly inflammatory statement
