Anyway, the second law is an approximation, and has been broken, rendering it obsolete (as a law, not as a statistical measurement).

nothing can go forever, the universe is going to burnout someday.
He has claimed in his book that he has patents in countries all around the world, except the US. He has spent over 1 million dollars trying to patent his machine in the US.
How the heck would a big bang theory explain where matter came from.
I've argued this topic before on ATS several months ago. The point I tried to make was that free energy and perpetual motion are not necessarily related to one another.
Tesla's radiant energy device has never been validated or debunked, but it too is simply a solar energy device. The idea is that cosmic rays from the Sun that ionize the upper atmosphere can be turned into useable electricity, in a similar way to which the photoelectric effect produces electricity.
There's a point where energy extraction from the medium could be so efficient that it might almost be considered "free." It's certainly not perpertual though.

I have been thinking about such things. If we put a magnetically levitated rod (I KNOW it can be done I have seen it being done) or top (like the Levitron) and made it magnetically levitate, put it into an opaque vacuum chamber and then had it in outer space where no magnetic or gravitic forces could act on it... Wouldn't that work? I am no expert for sure and there are probably forces that act upon it anyway.... But that would be pretty close, wouldn't it?

Um, I thought I'd let you know that all cosmic rays aren't reflected.
Here's a VERY interesting article, based on my previous comment:

Good luck with it if you're interested going in that direction. As far as I'm concered, this is one of the easiest ways to generate "free" energy from the environment.
