I saw this months ago and forgot to ask. What do y'all think about it?

Yeah, I just watched it again and was reminded of his claim that transmitting antennas get hot!

And capacitors are "efficient when energy passes through them quickly."

He claims the gov't is investing in this. I wonder if anyone else is.

But, presumably it's nonsense that makes money.

Another Obama fiasco? Pissing away our tax money?

All he needs to finish the scam is tag it with "green".

Well...all and good, but..."one Mw RFID tag" is one MEGAwatt and not one milli-watt.

As any self-respecting taxpayer knows, the government is extremely efficient in waste - wasting money in this case.

A lot of shonky pseudoscience claims state that the government is involved. Besides maybe making some gullible individuals think the setup has cred, 'the goverment' is less likely to respond with a clear refutation. Stating felloniously that a major private corporation is involved is likely to result in a very rapid response, probably involving lawyers.

I got bored & hit the kill button at the vintage radio picture.

He seems to use an awful lot of words to not say much!

Can you just write down your question?! I'm not going to watch a complete YouTube clip just because you don't want to type a few words!

Besides, the government is *ALWAYS* involved.. Taxes,you know..

Then send him to Congress..

Well said.

Sounds reasonable..

In sharp contrast to..

His question was what do you think of the clip? You don't have to actually watch it to give your opinion, Jos. This is the internet, after all. In fact it's better and more common to say that you didn't watch it, because you are certain it's scientific crap.

Mine is (and I actually watched that piece of crap) is that virtually everything the guy is saying is wrong. Ever notice how HOT an antenna gets when transmitting? I mean our local TV station does ONE MEGAWATT erp into a few aluminum rods on the top of a tower. Should be melting it down, right? It all just goes downhill from there. If he can't sell the spray-on antennas he can always pitch CO2 as the cause of climate change. I think there's big money in that.

I did give my opinion. :^)

Still OP might have had a genuine question (but apparently not..)

Yes, selling and granting indulgences! That was big business already in the dark middle ages.
