No intelligent life:-) Tongue-in-Cheek is an Irish default state-of-mind 24-7-365, Ultser Marching Season not withstanding.
Case in Point: Most Irish pub-goer's first after-pub-stop within the general vicinity of the 'Blarney-Stone' is made at said famous 'Stone' upon which said pub-goers relieve themselves upon said Stone's face: And then first-thing American (mostly) Tourists duely arrive in the morning & dutifully obey the ancient custom of kissing said Stone face. . . . ?Are we 'getting-this' yet?~:-) Steorn miraculous-overunity has kept 'us' guessing for a while; and the Steorn-Micks are chuckling over their Guiness. . . It's purported that the wee-folk luv-ta-tip the guarges upon occaission whilst the lab-boyos are well inta their dailly 'toasts;' no harm, it's all in fun. . .~;-) OFF TOPIC: ?What was that about "No intelligent life on planets discovered including not upon Earth as well?"~:-) > From: [email protected] > To: [email protected] > Subject: RE: [Vo]:any thoughts on this new Steorn video where 2 engineers and > a physicist are baffled at their 308% overunity results? > Date: Tue, 5 Oct 2010 08:02:39 -0700 > > Let me add another very specific detail that I think Terry will agree to: an > inexpensive meter (dedicated power analyzer) from these folks is the missing > recommendation from Steorn (for good reason): > > http://www.valhallascientific.com/wattmeters-power-analyzers/index.shtml > > ... since it will likely uncover self-delusion based on inaccurate scope > readings.
