That was in late 1959 or maybe early 1960. I was around 3 years old.
I remember my parents discussing exotic physics with me when I was three years old, too. But they didn't tell me about their classified research until I was four or five. I guess they figured I wasn't mature enough to handle it at three.

So you think in an abundant world there would still be suicidal people?
What about the mentally ill?
Do you think the individual should have the right to construct something which could be used to destroy a planet or a galaxy?

Do you really believe Searle when he claims the reason he can't demonstrate his antigravity contraption is because it went shooting off into outer space after he built it?
If you believe that, there's some really great real estate in a swamp in Florida you might be interested in.
If the cost of energy (both external, and Human via robots doing what needs to be done and which is no One's bliss) is removed all down the line, what remains is free. And a sword-maker (whose bliss it is to fashion swords) or the cook (whose bliss it is to cook) will make gifts of the product of Their bliss, having what They need for free.
So adding free energy is indeed a threat to elite - who use banking, and corporate control to manipulate the bulk of Humans on this planet.
Actually... There would be no "elite" except in social structure. The inventors, the teachers, the doctors, etc. who create the highest degree of betterment would become the new "elite" through fame and appreciation.
Read the book, Love. I think You will understand far more.

so you think every man, woman, and child is going to obey these three laws perfectly?
My point is that society as a whole isnt capable of wielding such power responsibly. I dont think that society in its current condition can handle abundance.

What used to take years of mining and excavation (decades, in some case), now takes mere days to months - depending upon the scale we are talking about. This is due to the contribution of machines and various power sources. The resource being harvested becomes common-place and it is further development and refinement of that resource that assumes the value it once held.

I am sorry - I take issue with your use of the word: "elite." As a member of the armed forces, I represent a select few of less than 1% of the population. Each and every time I have been advanced, it has been 1 of 1 - They could only choose one person of my rate and grade to advance - and I surpassed all others. My IQ places me well into the 99 percentile, and when I stop thinking something to death and do it - it turns out magical and above expectations and standards of those around me. I have been blessed with very good genetics and will have a fairly healthy and youthful body for most of my days....
You should understand why I take issue with you even presuming you are capable of determining who ranks as elite - much less bestow that title upon such an ambiguous group of your own fabrication.
Now... you are forgetting that these "elite" people you talk about would have free energy, as well.
In fact... in an age where water, food, and electricity run quite cheap (rent is far more expensive than your average utility and sustenance expenses.... your mass-produced box of wood and fiberglass and the ground it is on is considered more rare than the food, water, and energy you use) - the "elite" still manage just fine.
Your claim is as absurd as the claims that layman literacy would destroy the Catholic Church, or that the internet would bring about the end of school... because it's founded on the same fundamentally flawed reasoning.
The new resource of value would be what one could find to do with all of this free energy. Replacing existing sources is only half of the picture. Processes that were once cost-prohibitive (intensive chemical recycling processes that can go so far as to separate compounds into their elemental constituents) now become practical. Using particle accelerators to produce amounts of rare and exotic elements becomes mildly practical (producing meaningful amounts would require absolutely massive facilities on the order of planetary scale). There is a lot of stuff that could now be done that we would have scoffed at today... because we'd have to spend ten times as much on the energy to make the product as it is worth.
These creators of energy will require space and resources to construct. The facilities that process that energy into something useful will also take up space and have limited capacity based upon the output of the device and their own handling capacity.
People to monitor the processes are also a resource. The list goes on.
Nothing gets destroyed - the only thing that happens is the relative values of things change.
Actually... There would be no "elite" except in social structure. The inventors, the teachers, the doctors, etc. who create the highest degree of betterment would become the new "elite" through fame and appreciation.
Kind of like what we have today. You just fail to recognize the value of enablers - the investors and the arbiters of vision.
Read the book, Love. I think You will understand far more.
No, no... I really don't understand how electromagnetic fields are related to mass attraction ("gravity").
Nor does anyone else who claims to have worked on it, apparently.
I'll set the bar pretty low and just ask how one should define gravity. It is a concept we are very familiar and experienced with... stuff that goes up has a tendency to come back down - two things close to each other like to get closer. It's a very curious phenomena that, to date, has baffled physicists.
Though it was one of the first fundamental ... 'forces' ... to be discovered and even well described by Newton and Einstein.... no one has really been able to say what it is or how it works.
We'll start there, and work our way toward the concept of using electromagnetic and electrostatic fields to elicit a gravitational field (or something similar to it). One step at a time.

As energy tech advances so does the power of the weaponry it can create.
I dont think the whole planet should be in danger because two boys love the same girl.
The forms free energy can appear are indeed varried but none of them benign.
Ok. And Your point…?
(And BTW… I test well above even the 99th. For whatever that’s worth. And I have studied deeply economics for 50 years and synthesized the solution on that foundation.)
Not really. I guess You are unclear on the general meaning as it is used on this site. See suggestions for alternatives above.
Your point here is completely obscure to me.
Are there enough People, having all They want when They want it, who would choose to monitor? If not, build robotic monitors. Geez. Why is this an issue for You? Do continue the list. Please.
Best start with subquantum kinetics, eh? It has produced far more in the way of testable (and tested) predictions than Relativity has…

*sigh*
Plenty of resources were once very scarce. Now they are as (if not more) abundant than water. We still have 'elites.'
(And BTW… I test well above even the 99th. For whatever that’s worth. And I have studied deeply economics for 50 years and synthesized the solution on that foundation.)
Please. Testing into the 99 percentile is really as far as it goes. It's much like IQ tests - which become heavily distorted the further deviance there is from 100. An IQ of 115 and 120 are farther apart than an IQ of 135 and 140, using most standard tests.
Not really. I guess You are unclear on the general meaning as it is used on this site. See suggestions for alternatives above.
I'm clear on it. I'm telling you that it's a piss poor term to use to ambiguously describe a nameless and faceless group you direct your frustrations toward.
Your point here is completely obscure to me.
Not unexpected. Unfortunately, there's not much that can be done to help you.
However, for those reading along - my point is that many resources have been excruciatingly vital and rare in the past. Salt was used as a form of currency. Now we throw it on the roads to melt ice - something that would have been unthinkable in Roman times (where you would have gone out and shoveled the stuff). It was modern mining operations and supply lines that have made salt, almost literally, as cheap as dirt.
Are there enough People, having all They want when They want it, who would choose to monitor? If not, build robotic monitors. Geez. Why is this an issue for You? Do continue the list. Please.
Who would design and monitor the robots?
Somebody has to do something - if not by demand, they will do it by choice, and eventually develop something that requires human involvement.

Really....
So, after reading this book, I will know all I need to know in order to build one of these free energy devices, if I am to interpret your statements correctly.
Else, I have to accept that the books do not do an adequate job of describing the theory - as you "test above the 99 percentile," have read the books (and understand the theories)... yet have not built one of these devices.
A curious set of circumstances, to say the least.

The teapot is where it will remain.
A free energy system will not be allowed to exist for everyone.
I hope you can see the character chopping wood and carrying water can build. Perdition is a horrible thing to waste.
In either scenario i hope you are willing to witness to those around you through compassion and long suffering

After it was pulled into black ops, My father never mentioned it again. He kept His oath.
