By the way a real scientist has a patent on a device to extract energy from the vacuum:
Quantum vacuum energy extraction
How come the OP wants to discuss nonsense terminology instead of a real patent by a real scientist?
I think I know why it won't work, but I wish the inventor all the best of luck in trying to make it work.

The other "real scientist," as you put it, on the patent, Garret Moddel, was a speaker at the 2013 Global Breakthrough Energy Movement Conference. His topic was "Learning About New Energy and an Old Demon."

He mentioned something I've not heard of before: "Live Open Science."
Maybe in contrast to live closed science? I looked at the website and parts of the idea seem a lot like some fairly successful distributed computing projects like setiathome, in which I participated.

In contrast to dead closed science?

As long as the effort is carefully controlled enough like it has been successfully done in distributed computing, there is some merit to the concept, but the website does not reflect the same careful consideration that went into the success of the distributed computing projects.

I've read the peswiki forums where people have reported their test results on trying to get overunity on their bedini experimenter kits, and the incompetence was pretty prevalent, especially when the people they reported they got overunity, but they were still paying their electric bill every month...why?
. . . Now, after years of research and development, he's about to step into the role of having an energy solution that could power the future, without pollution, by harvesting energy from the every-where-present wheelwork of nature, or "vacuum" as it is referred to in this particular variation.
. . . A means by which to harness "Dark Energy" is to reduce the "Stress-Energy Tensor." This is accomplished through the use of bifilar coil configurations, which neutralizes the effect of self-induction. This, in turn, reduces the overall impedance of the coil. The bifilar coil is driven by two independent transverse pump waves as described by researcher, Tom Bearden. The ferromagnetic core material used by the bifilar coil acts as a nonlinear medium or more commonly known as a Pumped Phase-Conjugate Mirror or PPCM. . . .
I have expertise and experience in some areas but I've never run a distributed computing project. I've only been a participant. The experts they need to consult are those who actually ran the projects.

Mary Rose, you so badly want to believe in something, but please do this... stop ranting/preaching about 'mainstream vs alternative' why? because you are invariably saying that mainstream = wrong and alternative = right.
Even mainstream scientist inventors like Bernard Haisch who say every other claim of Zero point energy extraction he's seen is complete nonsense, and even his own idea for an ZPE invention might not work, but he wants to try it?
Mary Rose
I don't care who does it: I want inventors to succeed, whoever they are.

Aren't open-source projects like that for the purpose of building a prototype for proof of concept, which, in turn, would have to be scaled up quite a bit, at additional expense?
