content: Fuuuu*k that's annoying.I like looking at wacky science scams, since they usually include *some* kind of technical spiel, which can be amusing.But that video is 102% pure advertising, with no tech content at all. Except for being an insult to Tesla by trying to leverage off his greatness, which makes it even more insufferable.There isn't even a progress bar on the video player, so you have no idea how much longer that infuriating crap will go on for. Or is it perpetual?So that was many minutes completely wasted.Anyway, any 'free energy' scheme that promised to "reduce your power bill by x percent" is stupid. If a 'free power system worked, the only future relations users would have with power companies, would be legal issues due to having cut the cables to the street, and refusing to pay anything at all. Which I am sure would turn out to be illegal in some way, such as urban building codes requiring a grid electricity supply, without which buildings would be condemned as unfit for habitation.

I personally feel like they are taking advantage of his sporadic mental health and also use him to try and do the same sort of credit stealing that was done to him. The hypocrisy of that bit makes me gip...

content: Quote from: TerraHertz on December 15, 2015, 11:48:25 amI have seen few other videos in this same annoying style for other services/products (something crazy like how to get girls attention 100% of the time). Anyway, the main idea is to keep talking BS with empty words and with no substance. If the viewer/listener is stupid enough to continue to watch/listen, he/she will likely buy whatever is advertised.

content: Quote from: Mechanical Menace on December 15, 2015, 06:14:39 pmAgree, this kind of stuff makes me mad. Permitted Tesla exceptions should be the likes of Matthew Inman of The Oatmealfameand Elon Musk.A quick whois for the BS site turns up related sites which are more disturbing/scaremongering end of days survival sites all touting free energy plans for 49.99http://www.solarsteampower.com/http://www.stringsgenerator.com/http://www.enddayssurvival.com/he also does a good line in hearing and hair loss reversal (but only until big pharma or the amish force him to take it down):http://www.hearinglossreversed.org/
