Hi Tom,
I was not trying to pass any judgement upon Hamel, I only wanted to hear what
other people thought about his claims.
I cannot however agree with all the statement that you make.

I agree. If we are given the real thing, I do not care what the claims are, of
how the inventor got the information. As I said previously I keep an open mind
there.

I agree, but that is only good up to a point. When we spend to much time
trying to build their devices (only to have them not work), we cannot spend
enough time on the devices which may turn out to be the real thing. A lot of
simple devices get set aside trying to build the more exotic devices that are
based on false or over stated claims. It all comes down to the fact that the
inventor claims to have built a working device, but is never successful in
duplicating it for others to see, yet they still ask other people to build
these devices.

I understand the principle that is being shown with the Hamel spinner. My only
point here is that it is not anything new. The same effects can be shown in
hundreds of ways, with or without magnets, and as such, it alone does not prove
any technology. I think David probably only uses it to show the principle
behind his other devices, and not as a new technology in itself. I belive that
it is that effect that he is trying to get with his Energy Generator and Flying
Saucer, but to have magnetic instability take the place on his hand. It is an
interesting idea, and might even be possible, thus the reason why I cannot
determine if it will work based solely on the plans.

-----------------------------

This can go both ways as well. If you have read any of the conspiracy theories
out there about aliens, etc, you may be surprised to see many, many
correlations between the stories of several independent people. This gets more
people interested, and scamsters know this fact. If I were trying to
perpetrate a scam, I could easily do research and claim similar effects as
stated by many other inventors, but this would not make it true.

The problem is that I have not seen anything DUPLICATED as of yet....

I do not see the connection there at all....

I definitely would like to view this video at some point, if for nothing else,
it might be interesting SciFi...

I agree with a lot of what you say here. The main point being as you stated in
your last sentence: "too often as the case becomes people get the most of
you"... As I stated previously, my intent was not to pass judgement on
Hamel. It was mainly to get more information so that maybe we can move a step
closer to proving or disproving his claims. I for one, would be much happier
to find out that his claims are true...
