       Because of where I work, I get so many emails from people telling me they have figured out gravity is wrong or light works differently

       @MLE_online In which way is gravity wrong? I'm fascinated. But only once, and from a safe distance.

       Lord give me the confidence of an engineering student who has decided he knows physics better

       @tomjennings I thought this was in response to me post about the LA Times AI opinion tool until I opened the post.

       @MLE_online Years ago I had one tell me he'd invented a device that used "excess" electricity from a car alternator to perform hydrolysis and used the hydrogen to boost the car's mileage. "It's free energy!"It took him until his 3rd or 4th year before he finally believed me that his invention violated fundamental laws of physics (namely conservation of energy).

       @Karstan A guy came into home depot once showing us plans he found for a free-energy engine. He simply needed to adapt a microwave magnetron to go in place of the spark plug and fill the gas tank with water and he would have free power

       @MLE_online @Karstan So far the only free power machine I've seen is a long extension cord that's plugged in to a neighbor's outlet.
