You ask why an engineer would not have any patience for perpetual motion kooks. One reason is that you guys have spent exactly zero time trying to understand the principles that you're so quick to dismiss. If you want to be treated as a equal, try this: Sit through two or three college-level thermodynamics courses. Of course you'll first have to take a couple of years of calculus prerequisites before you can take the thermo. Better yet, after you've done your college work, spend a lifetime putting your thermo knowledge to practical application. Do that, and maybe someone will listen when you say it's all bunk.
It doesn't help your case that your posts are filled with the bizarre capitalization, punctuation and sentence structure that are the earmarks of Crackpotus americanus. (A species that, unfortunately, is not endangered.) Why is it that you kooks all use the same goofy grammar? You must have all read the same book: How to Write So You Sound Like a Complete Lunatic.
You reference Nicola Tesla, but Tesla was a trained engineer and understood thermodynamics very well. Tesla combined an almost innate understanding of physics with a spark of inspiration that allowed him to find practical applications to his scientific knowledge. He did not ignore physics, but rather exploited it. His most lasting legacy, polyphase power, isn't based on black magic or crackpot theories, but rather sound engineering principles.
That said, I do enjoy these discussions between the perpetual motion kooks and the engineers. No doubt Minnesota Joe will chime in any minute with his theories about Satan Claus.

Today's Featured Article - Fire in the Field A hay fire is no laughing matter-well, maybe one was! And a good life-lesson, too. Following World War II many farm boys returned home both older and wiser. One such man was my employer the summer I was sixteen. He was a farmer by birth and a farmer by choice, and like many returning soldiers, he was our silent hero: without medals or decorations, but with a certain ability to survive. It was on his farm that I learned to use the combination hand clutch and brake on a John D
