What is your opinion about the Hutchinson affect?

Question

If you dont know what it is, in short,there's this man Hutchinson(I forget the first name;might be Greg) who's invinted a way to exponentially get more electrical power out than was put in.And has done many other weird and odd things with it like levitating objects&even levitating whole liquid straight out of a glass.

If his invention and method was spread accross the country or even the globe,people would get super cheap energy.But unfortunately power companies are oposing him and even scientist are against him becuase they cant figure out how it works;because at the present understanding of science,what he's doing should be impossible;The patent office wont evan give him a patent.

I think it's really sad that we have people,scientific and well educated people that chose to be ignorant of his device,but enough about what I think;what does everybody else think about it?

Answer 1

Hutchinson even claims he hasn't been able to reproduce his results since 1991 (assuming the results ever existed) and has been unable to provide information to anyone such that his results can be independently verified.

No power companies are opposing him (there's nothing that can be demonstrated that would engage their opposition). Scientists scoff simply because something that cannot be reproduced nor explained well enough to be reproduced elsewhere is "vaporware".

The patent office won't issue a patent for perpetual motion machines, either (not knowingly, at least). Then again, it's necessary to make a proper application to get a patent.

When Hutchinson claimed he could reproduce his results back in the 70's -- well, he said he could. Problem was, he was only able to do so when the team sent to verify them wasn't present.

You think it's really sad that people ignore this wonderful "invention"? I think it's really sad that someone who would ask this question wouldn't have investigated the history of Hutchinson and his "effect" more thoroughly before accusing half the world of conspiracy.

Nothing personal -- I gave you a thumbs up for your reply re: "alien descent".

Answer 2

The device is a physical impossibility. Science has conclusively proven than it is impossible to spontaneously generate energy from nothing. This fact is so universally true that most scientists will simply dismiss free energy devices without even knowing how they work. It is not necessary to know how they work. The laws of physics prove that they cannot generate free energy. Why bother to research how the device works?

There is no conspiracy of power companies. If this man was capable of convincing even a single competent scientist that his device worked, the device would already be mass-produced. The fact that it is not says that he has failed to convince a single competent scientist. The reason for this is that his device does not generate free energy, as it claims to.

It it either a purposeful hoax perpetrated by Hutchinson, or the guy genuinely believes his device works, and is simply ignorant that it cannot possibly work in this manner.

What is sad is that so many people are so ignorant of the laws of physics that they spend their free time building useless machines that do nothing, instead of putting their efforts into something that would actually benefit society.

"Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence."

Hutchinson has failed to provide a working prototype of his machine, and also failed to provide a rigorous scientific explanation of the principles on which it operates. Any extraordinary claim that does not provide proof MUST be dismissed until proof is given. That is one of the founding principles on which science is built.

Answer 3

This guy probably lives with Elvis Presley, too.

All kidding aside. If his invention really worked he could get all the financial backing that he needed to build and use it, and could become a very rich man. The fact that he doesn't have a working model indicates pretty clearly that he's a fraud.

Sounds like the people who were always inventing carburators that they claimed could triple our gas mileage, but always claimed that the big oil companies were keeping the product off the market, this was back when gasoline was only $0.50/gallon. We now have fuel injection, and haven't heard anything from the frauds that were always looking for financial backing for their "magic carbs" for a long time.

Answer 4

He would have to know a politician to push it through. In America, it's all about politics unfortunately.
