Don_Juansays...Who would be interested in suppressing this technology? Oil $? Energy providers ? Battery makers ? Our fuel based economy perpetuators ? etc., etc.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Newman_(inventor) :
"In 2006, Newman claimed that his machine was not only capable of pumping water out of a well, but also capable of passing them through a desalination filter. His website links to videos suggesting that his machine is capable of turning a water pump."

siftbotsays...Adding video to channels (Documentaries, Engineering) - requested by Eklek.
quantumushroomsays...The Patent Office or somebody concluded he was a kook and his invention didn't work.
The End.
laurasays...^you based that on, like, the cheesy second listing when you googled it, didn't 'ya?
The End.
joedirtsays...No, he sued the Patent Office for not giving him perpetual motion patent. The court ordered the NBS to test his pile of shit. The DC to AC converter surprisingly was low efficiency. Of course the troofers on the internet will claim that there was all this magical RF energy he made from large wires and arcing (sparks). But there is no reason if this really works that you cannot power the machine off of itself and run forever.

JOE NEWMAN UPDATE
Some years after the preceding was first published a Straight Dope reader in Mississippi sent word that Joe was in the news again. According to the Mississippi Press, Newman said he was ordered by God to marry both his 30-year-old secretary and her 8-year-old daughter. Newman complied--God presided over the ceremony--and happily notified the world in a 12-page press release. (One copy was sent to the Ayatollah Khomeini.)
The only problem--well, maybe not the only problem--was that Newman was already married to a third woman. Authorities promptly removed the eight-year-old from Joe's home, though he said he had not consummated the marriage. Newman, who once ran for president on God's instructions, angrily declared that this shabby treatment was going to get God really PO'ed. "I wouldn't be a bit surprised if this does not result that God will place misery upon the state of Mississippi.... I can see the handwriting on the wall and the people of Mississippi had better wake up."
GeeSussFreeKsays..."Newman does not accept the classification of his invention as a "perpetual motion machine" and insisted his machine's energy output was limited by the conditions of the matter and energy it contained."
I don't believe crap that like that nowadays, the media trys to discredit people without any real evidence a lot. Anyway, if he has something, rayvac would of already bought it.
Sagemindsays...Well where's the profit in that?
Quick someone buy the apttent and bury it!
Sagemindsays...Ya, then tell him if he doesn't "shut up" and "Keep it Quiet", He will be discredited in every way posible...
I don't know the truths, but it does seem odd that so many people would support his claims and then boom, the discovery dissapears, is discredited and man becomes unstable... Strange indeed!
