Jiff,

Remember us skeptics will only be convinced by a sustained thrust. No videos of the machine twitching, with some overemotional response. It is fair to assume it will not lift it's own weight.

You will need a demonstrably frictionless and linear system, with a spring balance to precisely determine any thrust produced. A means of gust isolation is required - and this includes cooling fans, draughts, thermals etc. The exact energy input/output will need to be measured too, including voltage and current plotted against time.

However, be prepared to be unamazed. If this machine does not do exactly what you have hyped it up as doing, you MUST sit through the MIT freshman physics course video link posted earlier. This forum will require a signed confession saying that you recant your heresy, and wish to be cleansed of your non-newtonian beliefs. Your name will forever be darkened by the shadow of fringe practices...
