I like what Karl Popper says "I may be wrong and you may be right,

My thought experiment does not show angular velocity _changing_. I
hope it
shows how two systems which ought to posses the same angular
velocities
actually posses _different_ angular velocities.
If don't like the difference and wish to make it vanish by invoking
this
or that principle then go ahead.
There is no principle that states things
tend to seek a zero angular velocity with respect to the fixed stars
for example.
Where did I say that? (Perhaps we do need such principle...but i'm
just thinking freely)
We are not performing brain surgery or building rockets.
No one is going to be sued for a misjudgement or a mistake.
I know what these things are.
My question was not about free energy.
Please note that I did not discuss your ideas specifically because I
have no interest in debating them. All I was trying to do is help
you answer your questions in a more general way. Michel Jullian was
doing a great job of discussing your specific ideas.
