If that is the case, then I hope both sides of the debate that this has turned into graciously apologize to each other, and no one says "See, I told you it couldn't be done" or whatever.

I am for the most part skeptical till I see something work in front of me, but love to dream that it could.

Don't rain on this person's parade, until you absolutely see it not work (and even then, add ways that it may be able to work).



By the way, I have come up with a great idea for a perpetual motion machine, but until I can get a prototype made, I won't reveal my new idea.

One reason being that I don't want anyone else to take the credit for it, but the second reason is that if it does not work in real life like it does on paper, then I don't want the kind of responses that Aalfabob is recieving and the embarassment of letting myself down in public.

Remember those two words people. Gracious Professionalism.
Make your grandma's proud. Don't blindly say that something will or will not work until you see the proof that it does or does not.
