content: There's an old saying: "There's no such thing as bad publicity."If Dave were to take this on, the result would inevitably require some degree of technical competence to fully appreciate the process and the outcomes. This immediately eliminates a significant proportion of a population - as those people would not be able to make an informed decision from their own assessment. This is where the facts and objectivity go out the window.The charlatan simply labels those who agreed it's a fraud as ignorant dinosaurs and continues to spin their tale to the rest of the population that doesn't know any better.The bottom line is that the proof of fraud effectively gets dismissed and the fraudster has received a grand amount of publicity - which they will add to their armoury of propaganda. They will then present the interaction as a victoryand they will be successfulbecause the people who are left will not have been able to understand the results - they will just believe whatever spin is put on it.Edit:For Dave, it's just as it was in the movie War Games - The only winning move is not to play.

This one is also super easy to test and debunk, you don't need to know rocket science to demonstrate that a dead battery stays dead, no multimeter needed, just a load. You could even do it on live TV with an audience to ask questions.

content: Quote from: Cyberdragon on October 07, 2018, 02:54:26 amI agree wholeheartedly, but the unfortunate reality is that there will be "believers" who will hang in there until the bitter end. This isn't because of some potential in the product, but from the art of the con-man. It is this art, combined with the minds of those whowantto believe that hobbles the effectiveness of any evidence to the contrary.The fact that there have been abject failures in the past by "the establishment" declaring a certain technology or capability as impossible, doesn't help. For scammers, this is a trump card that was handed to them - and they can (and do) play it whenever they want.

content: We need to approach these things in terms of "how to identify fraud". The signs, tachtics and methods of fraud and how to watch out for it. Basically, educate the public on how fraud works in general, not just in science. Beat them at their own game. Scam the scammers. There will always be nuts, but the public needs to learn to throw them under the street cleaners just like the flat-earthers.

content: The world's demand for energy keeps increasing because people in places like China and India see our lifestyle and decide they want to do the same.The issue with fossil fuels isn't so much whether they can support us indefinitely, but whether they can support 10x that demand indefinitely. To which, even the Koch Brothers would probably say, 'No, they can't.'In spite of hyped-up promotional material from their pipedreaming supporters,renewables can't even replace our existing fossil fuel usage. (2% of world energy or 7% of electricity currently comes from wind and solar, in spite of massive investments in that area.)So, we need a new energy source. Fast breeders, thorium LFTR or fusion are the only ones we currently know of that are capable of doing the job. Fast breeders have some horrific safety issues. So, that leaves the other two.

Right – As stated before, I am not a Scientist, but as an Entrepreneur I have a curious and creative mind with a desire to make a difference in the world. It was this underlying purpose that has lead to the incorporation of EnergyxPower with all that we are able to offer you and the world. In reflection, I can say that not being classically trained, is the only reason that the discovery of the Xpower battery® was possible…in the first place.Otherwise, I would have been put in the same BOX with all the restrictions. You have to understand that this Technology was discovered by “mistake”; that is, by trial and error while being curious.What could possibly go wrong.Q11. Are there any special instructions for using the Xpower battery®?A11. Not really. Just as you currently use your devices, when you turn off the T.V remote the Xpower battery® goes to work recharging itself....But for devices such as smoke detectors that are left on until the battery dies and it starts “bleeping you,” you can just take out the Xpower battery® and leave it for a day so it recharges itself to the highest capacity possible before re-inserting or if you can’t/don’t like doing that; put in a new Xpower battery®, hold onto the old one, so it recharges itself for the next time you need a battery.https://energyxpower.com/frequently-asked-questions/
