Equinox: It Runs On Water (1995 documentary on free energy)
Jim Griggs, inventor of the Hydrosonic Pump, is no longer a part of Hydro Dynamics Inc.
Stan Meyer was convicted of fraud in 1996. Meyer was found guilty of fraud when his Water Fuel Cell failed to impress three expert witnesses. When one of the court experts went to examine the Water Fuel Cell driven car, it was impossible to evaluate because it was not working. Meyer later died of apparent poisoning which led to a slew of retarded conspiracy theories. He bitched about funding and support yet, The James Randi Foundation had a standing $1 million dollar offer, all he had to do was prove his claims.
Color me skeptical. When Griggs says he was confused as to why the pipes were getting hot, and goes on to describe his pump, at no time is cavitation mentioned. This is a common, fairly well understood phenomenon. Yet it goes unmentioned in the video? WTF
Cavitation:
"This is a process in which tiny bubbles grow in size and then collapse as a result of pressure variations in the turbulent water...The temperature reached by the collapsing bubble depends on how much of the focused energy is lost by sound emission at the collapse and how much is consumed by internal processes such as vibrations, rotations, dissociation and eventually ionization... If there are many collapsing bubbles, they disturb each other, which leads to a less-spherical collapse and therefore less-efficient energy focusing. Nonetheless, temperatures can rise so high that the bubbles start to glow...Analysis of the emitted spectral lines4 indicates that the temperature reached inside these bubbles is around 5,000 kelvin."

The phenomenon where in light is emitted is called "Sonoluminescence." Sonoluminescence was discovered in 1934 by two German physicists.

There was an interesting documentary on a hydro power plant at a dam where they showed the tremendous damage that caviation was causing to the turbine blades and housing. Typically, cavitation is seen as a source of inefficiency.
Here's the patent for the Hydrosonic Pump mentioned:

Fox News in the future - from the excellent film "Idiocracy"
Another good documentary was "OUTFOXED : Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism"
Sadly the full version was pulled from google, an edited version still 1hr,18min long is up but it had all but the interviews edited out, inbetween the interviews with former employees was clips supporting the claims in the interviews along with internal memoranda.
The edited version:

Youtube not working at all? (Sift Talk Post)
It's not just you. I've been experiencing problems aswell. Youtube's been going downhill, both in quality of content and quality of service.
