Whether or not you want to call this guy's work perpetual motion, it pisses off a lot of scientist whom despite their overpriced educations did not have enough intelligence to figure this out for themselves. There could also be a slight hint of ego similar to that of religious zealots who get their feelings hurt at the prospect of finding that their god is but a myth. Scientist too, dislike finding out what they thought was the true law may have been wrong. As for me, I quite enjoy my AC generator that I built using DC powered magnet to drive the fly-wheel. I'll put it in 1st grade terms that you physics zealots can understand. The large fly-wheel turns a large shaft thingy which on one end powers the AC genterator putting out 72k watts (more than enough to power my 1,420 sq. ft. home) and on the other end powers a low amperage DC generator that powers the magnets turning the fly-wheel in between. So as not to hurt anyone's feelings, we won't call it perpetual motion, we'll call it "recycled motion". I got a visit last year from the city codes inspector telling me I had to remove it and re-hook my house to the grid, but he was sorely disappointed to find that my house is 200ft. outside of the city limits and not governed by city codes. The county codes as of yet do not favor the energy industry, so for now I enjoy not paying electric or gas bills thanks to my generator that is supposedly impossible to build because scientists can let go of their egos and realize that maybe everything they've been taught is wrong. Any scientist who wants to look at it is more than welcome to do so. Just don't interupt my TV shows.
