Hævder at have opfundet en evig bevægelse maskine i 2006, Steorn Inc. (tidligere på Metafilter her og her) udfordret et hold af 22 internationale videnskabsfolk og ingeniører til at "kontrollere" deres tilsyneladende umuligt enhed. I sidste uge den videnskabelige jury bebudet deres resultater: "Den enstemmige dom af bedømmelseskomitéens er, at Steorn forsøg på at bevise påstanden har ikke vist energiproduktion," det er angivet. "Juryen er derfor arbejdets ophør."
Men har ingen frygt, medborgere. Steorn har fastsat den "centrale tekniske problemer", som holdes enheden fra at arbejde, og nu planlægger at kommercielt lancere deres evige bevægelse enheden mod slutningen af 2009.
Måske mere interessant end de gentagne svigt i umuligt fysik er spørgsmålet om, hvorvidt Sean McCarthy og flere dusin ingeniører, at han beskæftiger er bedragere eller måske bare delusional.
En lang postmoderne afhandling om Steorn, de Orbo og Steorn Forums her.

Global warming
"Global warming will be the greatest environmental challenge in the 21st century."
- Vice President, Albert Gore.
Global warming is happening as we speak. Wether the main cause is man made or just another climate change as seen throughout history is a debate for itself that we will not enter much here.
The fact is, however, that the temperetures is rising continuously in this epoke of time.
We will look upon the worldly changes to expect as a reaction to this fenomenon.
