My issue is that there is suppression of inventors and scientific and technological information
there is the use of ridicule by ordinary people who I classify as minions of the powers that be. Minions are people who have invested their time, effort, money, and ego into a university education - which is largely controlled by those powers that be - and they don't want the perceived value of that education diminished. So they're content to use the fallacy of ridicule, which only helps the powers that be keep things the way they are.

So far that is a claim, with no proof at all to back it up. Do you have anything to back it up?
So going back to my example of the theory that says the arrow is moving because it's being pushed by the air; we can launch the arrow in a vacuum chamber and show that it keeps moving even when in a vacuum. How can we possibly misinterpret that? Doesn't that prove the theory false?

Mary did you ever answer this? How should science treat theories that have been proven wrong?
Any time you say something has been proven wrong you are stating what you believe to be true from the information you have.
You can't verify he actually said that, can you?

Use the internet.
We need to help along that act of God by educating ourselves and demanding better things.
Rich did say something about taking ET home, as part of his "contract gag", but that was kind of a joke and the people that were there said the audience laughed at it as they were supposed to.

As I pointed out in an earlier post, there was no "deathbed" confession. His comments, many of which have ben misquoted, were taken from presentations he gave long before his death. Ben Rich gave his speeches using a standard script. The content varied a bit over the years; he added new material whenever something was declassified, but from 1983 on he always ended with his joke, "We just got a contract to take E.T. back home."
No matter how many years had passed since the last time he said it, it was always "we just got a contract" of "a few weeks ago we received a contract." That was part of the gag, making it sound like a current Skunk Works project. Rich kept copies of his scripts, which he reused according to the needs of his audience, along with photocopies of all of his slides (including the "flying saucer"), so these details are easy to verify.
Jan Harzan, now executive director of Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), attended the March 1993 lecture at the University of California, Los Angeles, with fellow UCLA engineering alumnus and UFO enthusiast Tom Keller. Keller, an aerospace engineer who has worked as a computer systems analyst for NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, wrote about it in the May 2010 issue of "MUFON UFO Journal" and Harzan recently shared his story in a January 2012 interview with Web Talk Radio Network, and another with Alejando Rojas of Open Minds UFO News and Investigations in July 2013.
Harzan says that after the lecture ended a few people remained behind to ask questions. Some wanted to know more about the technology to “take E.T. home.” Harzan says Rich initially brushed off these queries but allegedly told one engineer, “We now know how to travel to the stars. We found an error in the equations and it won’t take a lifetime to do it.” I have also heard Rich's statement quoted as, “First, you have to understand that we will not get to the stars using chemical propulsion. Second, we have to devise a new propulsion technology. What we have to do is find out where Einstein went wrong.” Unfortunately, neither quote is verifiable but the second one sounds more like the words of an engineer, especially one with Rich's stated views as outlined in his letter to John Andrews.
As things began to wind down after the UCLA speech, Rich said, “I’ve got to go now,” and started to walk out of the room. Harzan pursued him, and continued to ask him about the workings of interstellar propulsion systems. it was an unanswerable question in light of our current scientific knowledge.

Most of what you learn in university you can't verify from first-hand experience.

The obvious existence of UFOs is not as obvious as their actual nature. Besides, everyone carries with them a camera these days and the amount of actual evidence that is credible is really not increased at the same rate.
And besides, apparent suppression of UFO subject material does not necessarily have any causal value with what is being discussed here. It is not an absolute means to an end, but more over a logical plausibility but no reason to be the case
The big bang is defined as an expansion OF space, not IN space. So what you suggest is that this field exited both without physical space before and was not perturbed by it as physical space expanded through it.edit on 5-2-2014 by ErosA433 because: (no reason given)

Magnets are not forever lasting, they run out of energy.
It can't run forever.

Theres this old adage…
"something from nothing…"
I really wish it were true. It would have to violate the known laws of Physics, though.
As soon as he puts a load on the shaft to produce power enough to turn a generator that gets more energy out than is put in, let me know.
DARREN1976just after the early nineteen hundreds one notable physicist was quoted as saying that evrything to be learned about physics had already been discovered, then came along general relativity!!

They aren't a power source, just a storage device.

I would not consider a magnetic a storage device. Changes in a magnetic field create power, a magnet at rest is just a brick...
The Engel permanent magnetic motor, reported on in a news article by Sepp Hasslberger, is a rotary device that has been observed to run continuously for seven months with only a small input of 70 milliwatts needed to operate its speed controlling disc, this being said to be a small fraction of the motor’s total rotary power. No power output figures for the motor, however, have been mentioned.
In explaining the origin of the motor’s excess energy, we might focus on the neodymium iron boron magnets which provide the motive force to keep the motor spinning. The magnetic field in the permanent magnets can be traced to the magnetic moment of unpaired electrons in the magnet’s material. This further leads to the question of what powers the spin of an electron, spin being responsible for its magnetic moment. Standard physics provides no answer and simply claims that spin is an inherent property of electrons. Subquantum kinetics, however, interprets spin as a vortical motion of the X and Y ethers and attributes this vortical motion to the consumption of Y etherons and production of X etherons in the electron’s core. The radial flow of Y into the electron’s core is hypothesized to create a vortical movement, although this must be checked out through future computer simulations of Model G. These ether consumptions and productions in the particle’s core ultimately arise as a result of the underlying etheric transmutative flux. So, the origin of electron spin and magnetic moment may ultimately be traced to the underlying etheric flux. Hence the Engel magnetic motor may be said to derive its energy from this transmutive flux.
It is no use to think of this flux in terms of energy terms since energy (i.e., energy quanta, gravitational potential energy, electrical potential energy, etc.) has meaning only at the physical level. At the subquantum etheric level we need other concepts to describe what drives these reactions forward. Love maybe? An inherent need to react? Or perhaps we should invent a term less anthropomorphic like “subquantum action”.
