The page is silly; it's about "ferrofluid-glob technology," not about air-cushions or force fields. This site strongly resembles one of the many "fake plans websites" that plague the Free Energy arena. When "Back to the Future" first came out, there were some fake-plans companies selling stuff as well. The creators of these sites don't have any working technology, and their intent is to sell expensive plans which do not work. Don't trust them, and certainly don't spend your money. See: FREE ENERGY FAQ: "But plans are for sale!" http://amasci.com/freenrg/fefaq.html#plans > I just bought a copy of their Hoverboard design notes at the above link, Ask yourself this question: if the design notes are a bunch of untried speculations, and the authors are actually some college kids (or even high-school kids) trying to make money by selling stuff on the internet, HOW MUCH WOULD YOU PAY FOR THEIR DESIGN NOTES? My own answer would be: zero. I wouldn't spend any money, since I probably can come up with much better speculations than dishonest non-scientists who are trying to gain customers rather than trying to advance the research. Also, always ignore fancy blueprints: they're aimed at gullible people who can be deceived by surface appearances. > The above design notes that I purchased also give a practical design answer > that works using ions and microwaves with electrostatics but which has to be > researched more and fine tuned to be mass produced. Meaning, "they haven't tried it themselves, that's why they can't post any photos of their experiments." Go look at the J. L. Naudin site if you want to see how genuine alt-science experimenters behave. (((((((((((((((((( ( ( ( ( (O) ) ) ) ) ))))))))))))))))))) William J.
