Blacklight power?

Fuel's paradise? Power source that turns physics on its head

· Scientist says device disproves quantum theory
· Opponents claim idea is result of wrong maths

It seems too good to be true: a new source of near-limitless power that costs virtually nothing, uses tiny amounts of water as its fuel and produces next to no waste. If that does not sound radical enough, how about this: the principle behind the source turns modern physics on its head....cont'd

Yes, that is a hoax. The company has been around for a while. Every now and then someone inexplicably does a news story about them and doesn't mention that their patents were actually revoked (unprecidented!) because while they were able to fool one patent official, the hoax was revealed in an investigation. The guy will lay low until people forget he's a hoaxter, then he'll cash in on fresh gullibility and short attention-span every 5-10 years.

We have a thread in S&D about it, so I'm locking this: http://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=98326
