While We Wait - Let's See An Epic Clip
Sunday, January 10, 2010
James Randi (debunker) has made an astonishing attack on the FE Truth blog and Steorn.
In Randi's latest collection of misguided ramblings on SWIFT - (Swift is the weekly online newsletter of the JREF and is written by James Randi.) Randi incorrectly refers to Steorn and Orbo as "farces" and then after debunking Australian inventor Archer Quinn, goes on to provide a badly Photoshop'ed FE Truth logo seemingly with the word "Truth" fading. Think Marti's fading family picture from "Back To The Future" and you're on the right track.
Amazingly, Randi admits to the fact he hasn't even seen FE Truth (hmm really) , he goes on to say "I'm told that a link to the interview is at the very end of the interview here." (You love it mate! - LOL).
If we are getting up Randi's nose then job well done.
Archer Quinn may or may not have free energy - we have NEVER stated he did. If he does (and we'll find out on June 20th) then we can all tell Al Gore to get a job as a welder and hand back his Nobel Prize cos he ain't needed no more - ka-peesch!
However we have always maintained that Steorn definitely have free energy technology (Orbo). This has not changed and our position on this has only strengthened with time.
When Steorn's free energy technology "Orbo" is officially validated and released then none of this will even matter - it will be the end of the road for free energy debunkers like JR and all the rest of them we've had the displeasure of meeting along the way.
After validation there should be no hard feelings in the end, as we'd like to take Randi out in Dublin and buy him a few consolation pints of Guinness anyway - he'll need it after losing credibility and the $1,000,000 prize money for displaying that perpetual motion (free energy) is possible.
Link To The "Randi Rant"
We're normally quite a serious bunch here at FETruth but sometimes one comes along that has us crying into our Guiness with laughter. In what will be seen now as an embarrasing and factually incorrect statement, Bob Park (famed debunker) recently wrote this little gem in his column when he referred to Steorn:
"In 2007 the company went belly-up."
FETruth: Really Bob? Are you 100% sure about that mate? Anywho, we'll get back to that, moving on..
Joining the party also was James Randi (another famed debunker) helpfully propogating Park's nonsense on his own JREF forums. (Park and he are old friends) Randi had this to say..
SHUT DOWN DUE TO FAILURE
You’ll perhaps remember the Steorn company in Dublin who made the loud perpetual motion machine claims? They’d assembled a jury of scientists to evaluate their 2006 claim of generating free energy – we last referred to this miracle at http://www.randi.org/joom/content/view/80/27/, pointing out that it was simply the old reciprocating-magnet-wheel idea, and most likely just a way of luring investors. Well, Bob Park just informed us that they’re now out of business. Surprise! But what happened to the money that investors sent them…? Inquiring minds want to know. At bobpark.physics.umd.edu/WN06/wn082506.html you’ll find the story. There are other companies – with the same theme – offering the same miracle.
Steorn's response:
"Wow, I wish that some one would tell me this stuff, I need not have turned up to the office all that time. Good to see that JREF is reliable as ever! "
FE Truth comments: Had Park bothered to make a simple telephone call to Steorn's offices he would have found that they're very much alive and in business as usual, the jury is still active, the SPDC is in full flow -(I logged in and spoke to Steorn staff this morning), and the Steorn webservers hosting tens of thousands of users are still operating as normal.
Debunkers need something to debunk, just happens they picked the wrong one this time. Had they used logic and made the most basic of enquiries they'd have seen that Steorn are very much alive and conducting business as usual. If filling column inches on websites is the name keeps they're userbase coming back then at least they achieved that.
ROFLMAO
