Engine Powered By Ordinary Water
Here's a Usenet article from 1995 describing a steam engine that employs a magnetron to vaporize the water, with over-unity performance. I think Randell Mills reported a 3:1 power gain in a microwave plasma of pure water. Some state of oxygen serves as a hydrino catalyst. The one detail in the article below that causes me to doubt it is the sentence The magnetron fits into the spark plug hole. I think oven magnetrons have a flat-surface fitting with an opening where the microwaves emerge. This would not fit into the sparkplug hole of a lawnmower engine, which is probably pretty small. Also, the magnetron has vacuum inside, so the microwaves must pass through a nonconductive glass, ceramic, or plastic window that already has 15 psi across it. The pressure of the expanding steam would add to that and tend to shatter the window. An additional stronger window in an adapter fitting would be required. If the original author really built such an engine, why doesn't he mention this? From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Pat Pelletier) Subject: PUBLIC DISCLOSURE -NEW INVENTION Date: 1995/08/28 Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED]#1/1 distribution: world organization: MIND LINK! - British Columbia, Canada newsgroups: sci.materials I am posting the following for a friend who does NOT have access to the Internet. Comments welcomed. NOTICE The purpose of this notice is to place into public domain something which I invented so that it may not be patented and in order to prevent it's use from being restricted in any way. The device is an engine in which small quantities of water are turned into steam by the use of a magnetron (as found in microwave ovens). Interested parties may wish to try this test: Place a few drops of water into a clear plastic 35mm film roll holder and put the cap on the film roll holder. Place in a microwave oven and turn the oven on. The 'pop' is the result of the water turning suddenly into steam. The engine I have invented is far more efficient than any other steam engine because of the efficiency of the magnetron in turning water into steam. In fact, the water droplet 'explodes' very much like air/gasoline explodes in a conventional internal combustion engine. This engine was first tested in 1992. I am however unable to invest the required capital to produce a more sophisticated model and therefore unable to patent it. Even though I may not be able to profit from this technology it is too good to be kept to myself and I would like to spread it around so that others may be able to use it. The following is an outline of how to construct the device and a few hints and cautions: PARTS NEEDED: 1. Magnetron from a medium power microwave oven, 2. Small 4 stroke single cylinder lawn mower engine or similar engine with 'old style' points, and ignition system. 3. Automotive alternator with built-in rectifier and regulator, also a 12 volt auto battery. 4. 'Trigger' mechanism from an aircraft 'strove' landing light. INSTRUCTIONS: 1. The magnetron fits into the spark plug hole. 2. The distributor points are modified so that the contact is closed when the piston is at the top dead center and this contact is used to activate the aircraft strobe mechanism. 3. The high voltage from the strobe is connected to directly fire the magnetron which in turn produces steam which moves the piston. 4. The engine turns the alternator which keeps the battery charged which supplies electrical power for the magnetron. CAUTION AND TIPS: WARNING DANGER 1. Be careful around the magnetron. KEEP IT SHIELDED WITH METAL. IT CAN CAUSE SEVERE AND KEEP BURNS THAT MAY NOT BE READILY VISIBLE WHEN THEY FIRST OCCUR. 2. The 'strobe' trigger delivers a very high voltage which can jump to ground. WEAR RUBBER SOLED SHOES AND INSULATE WELL. 3. Be sure to modify the distributor points so they close at top dead center. Timing advance depends on the power of the magnetron used and the amount of water. Try different carb jet sizes - drill out if needed. 4. Due to variables, don't expect high engine speeds without a little experimentation due to variables. 5. Start with a fully charged battery or your alternator won't work. 6. The energy produced is in excess of the power required to run the alternator but until you get the RPM up, and they parts working in harmony, it may be best to use a battery charger instead of an alternator. 7. An easy way to measure net power output after you have the alternator on line is to run a few 12 volt lights from the battery. You will see that the battery stays charged even with the lights on and the motor keeps on going. 8. Although I have not tried it, the idea of vaporizing water with microwaves should also work well in a converted turbine. SPREAD THIS TECHNOLOGY - IT IS FREE!!

Re: 35% H2O2-Water Engine
Who ever started this thread is to be criticized for a misleading subject line, water is water and H202 is H2O2. Decomposition of a 35% solution Hydrogen Peroxide-Water in an engine internally plated with Manganese Dioxide will as a decomposition This reminds me of a story that Harold Aspden told. Following WW II, a German engineer showed him a design for a submarine power plant that he claimed was O U. This man's claimed were supported by other scientists. Later I saw a show on PBS on submarines. There was a picture of the last generation of U Boats, very cool streamlined design. They mentioned that it was powered by H2O2.
Bottomless well
Michael Medved, michaelmedved.com interviewed Peter Huber author of The Bottomless Well. Huber poopooed Hupert's Peak thesis. According to him, there are enough petroleum resources in this hemisphere to last the entire world for a century. Then there is our coal reserves. He ignored my question about the collapse of the dollar. Further information on the book is on Medved's website.

Secure self-sustaining mini-mega pyramid communities
Secure self-sustaining mini-mega pyramid communities The self-sustaining mega pyramid city proposed by Shimizu Corporation as posted at http://www-eleves.int-evry.fr/~durand_f/ar03c.htm which is 1 mile by 1 mile costs to much presently to implement easily, however if we reduce the size of the mega-pyramid from 1 mile by 1 mile to 1/4 mile by 1/4 mile, we may be able to build them more practically presently. My rough calculations indicate that a 1/4 mile by 1/4 mile mini-mega pyramid, should house from 25,000 to 50,000 residences, which is about 5 to 10 times more residences than a typical square quarter mile city block filled with standard apartment houses. Unlike apartment houses the mini-mega pyramids are completely self sustaining, air tight and enclosed, secure, and safe from harsh environments, and environmental pollutants so that they can endure cold weather climates, tsunami's, and biological warfare conditions. We can also place force field or tent like domed above ground, and below ground hydroponic farming plants around and under the pyramids to produce foods in cold weather climates and harsh and polluted conditions locally. We can even make the mini-mega-pyrmids movable and portable if need be. We can also build some underground cities and residences under the movable pyramids so that we have both an above ground and below ground city that can survive in harsh and cold weather conditions. Such mini-mega pyramidal buildings can be used in big cities to gradually create more land space for farming, forests and parks, eliminate ugly getto's, and make large cities self sustaining. 25,000 residences in each mini-mega pyramid costing about 100,000 dollars each generates close to 2,500,000,000 dollars if the residences are leased for life but if the residences are rented monthly which is more practical and a better investment to secure the properties for the investors, then they can produce much more income close to 3 times more in the life time of the investors, and 10 to 100 times more for the lifetime of the pyramids, while at the same time being more affordable to attract more client renters. We will need to get the costs of the mini-mega 1/4 mile by 1/4 mile pyramids down to around 3 billion dollars for investors to seriously consider them and invest in them. But once we get one mini mega pyramid built to show that it works, and is cost effective and investable, then we can mass produce them to save even more money. I would estimate that if all went well with proper investments we could get a mini-mega pyramid built within 20 yeas time and then mass produce them so that within 50 to 100 years time we could have hundreds if not thousands of such pyramidal communities built world wide. A typical city with a population of a million persons would require about 50 such pyramids taking up only about 5 square miles for the pyramids and 10-square miles for the hydroponic indoor enclosed farms to support the foods for the pyramids. Within a few hundred years time we could have much of the world populated with such pyramidal cities so that they could survive even an ice age if need be. Assuming the worlds population is halved as is expected in the next few hundred years, then we only need about 200 to 500 mini-mega pyramids per state in the USA, and 25,000 such pyramids in the USA or per nation, and 5,000,000 such pyramids world wide for about 200 nations. Since there is more land space due to using mini-mega pyramids to house the masses in large cities, we can also build more luxury estates for the wealthy and middle class communities that have more space and room, which are also self sustaining, secure and enclosed by force fields or large tent like domes to be able to survive an ice age, and biological warfare conditions. We can make all communities happy the rich, the middle class and the lower class masses. I have posted plans on how to build the more spacious elite and middle class secure and self sustaining communities at the Architectural Engineers website at www.rhfweb.com/ae in addition to the above mini-pyramidal self sustaining community plans. What's more these modular self sustaining safe and secure community plans all work in outer space on other planets, and on ring world space stations, and I have posted plans for such outer space communities also at the above web site.

According to him, there are enough petroleum resources in this hemisphere to last the entire world for a century. What hemisphere, exactly? If that include South America (Venezuela) it is probably true. There is also a lot of oil in Canada and Alaska. Of course it would cost a fortune to extract it. If he means oil at $500 per barrel, I am sure there is enough to last a century. At $2,000 per barrel it will last forever, because no one can afford to burn it. These prices do not include the cost of war for oil, ill-health and early deaths from pollution, accidents in which gasoline powered vehicles explode, and other add-on costs. If you include this sort of thing, oil already costs roughly ~$200 per barrel, I think. If you include the cost of worst-case global warming I suppose each barrel will eventually cost us something like ~1,000 lives or maybe $20 million. From that point of view, the total remaining supply is the least of our problems. In a sense, it would be a blessing if we ran out quickly and we were forced to invent replacement sources. Unfortunately, people are likely to use coal instead, which is even worse by every measure. If Huber is saying there is plenty of oil lying around at today's costs in the US, Canada and Mexico, he should tell you oil companies about it. They are paying a fortune to get oil from the North Sea, Russia, the Middle East and other places. They would be delighted to find it closer to the U.S., which is the world's largest market. I doubt he knows more than the oil company experts do. - Jed
