        Dear Guy, 
        
          
        
        Everyone has different 
        skills.  My skill is in concepts and principles, since I dig into 
        foundations --- which are not many people's cup of tea.  In foundations 
        work, however, one discovers we really do not understand what a great 
        number of things taken for granted really are.  Such as force, energy, 
        mass, space, time, etc.  Even exactly what is meant by "observation" is 
        still controversial. 
        
          
        
        First must come the 
        concepts and principles, tied to good physics but outside the classical 
        electrical engineering, because the classical electrical engineering 
        model does not even allow COP>1.0 systems. 
        
          
        
        Mathematics you can 
        hire on the street corner from any good university.  The Math is indeed 
        necessary, but there are a great many persons who can do the necessary 
        mathematics.  Most of these persons, however, have heretofore been 
        lacking the concepts and principles.  Certainly they have been lacking 
        them in the COP>1.0 arena, for there has not been any legitimate COP>1.0 
        theory of EM systems previously advanced.  Just try finding one. 
        
          
        
        My target is the sharp 
        young grad students and post docs who are interested in COP>1.0 
        systems.  This target audience already has far better mathematical 
        skills than I do!  One only has to cite "Lorentz symmetrical regauging" 
        and they already know what it is as well as the mathematics involved.  
        They may not be aware that Ludwig Lorenz did it in 1867, way before H. 
        A. Lorentz did it, but got all the credit for it.  So I tell them that, 
        and also cite the beautiful paper by Jackson and Okun that gives the 
        pertinent history and explains what a bum deal Lorenz (without the t) 
        got.  Then one only has to call to their attention to what Lorentz 
        regauging really does.  Such as change the potential energy of the 
        system freely and twice, but in an arbitrary weird way so that all the 
        free and extra potential energy you can have for free, is "locked up" 
        and cannot be used to translate electrons as current to help power an 
        external load.  Such as a change in the potential energy of the 
        Maxwellian system represented by the equations assumes a rotation of the 
        system out of the laboratory frame.  Etc. 
        
          
        
        To understand my work, 
        one does have to read the literature, and it isn't easy.  If it had been 
        easy and straightforward, it would not have taken 30 years to uncover 
        it. 
        
          
        
        Also, to ever have a 
        legitimate theory of COP>1.0 systems, one has to first have not only the 
        principles and concepts, but also the hard physics references for each 
        part.  Since no one heretofore has been doing that at all, that is what 
        I'm doing. 
        
          
        
        As far as devices:  
        Simply charge a capacitor and lay it on a permanent magnet, so that the 
        E-field of the cap is at right angles to the permanent magnet.  That 
        optimizes EXH.  So that simple beast --- even by standard Poynting 
        theory --- sits there and pours out EM energy from the vacuum, 
        continuously and unceasingly --- and freely.  There is no problem at all 
        in extracting the energy to gush out in a steady continuous flow.  
        That's all there is to building a COP = infinity EM energy source, 
        totally violating the second law of thermodynamics because it steadily 
        produces negentropy, not entropy.  (Not to worry, that has now been 
        proven by some excellent scientists, and we will be covering that on our 
        website). 
        
          
        
        The problem is, now 
        what do you do with that silly capacitor and magnet?  You have a 
        certified, proven free flow of EM energy.  The COP>1.0 EM system problem 
        starts right there. 
        
          
        
        And that's the point.  
        Right there, most fellows refuse to do any further thinking on their 
        own.  They get a number 40 glaze across their eyes, and say, "Why, 
        that's too simple!  That's nothing at all."  And as long as they don't 
        get it at that point, they never will -- and I have no further time to 
        discuss things with them. They are slated to do engineering or applied 
        research, not basic research. 
        
          
        
        There are no textbooks 
        or courses on how to go about catching that energy gushing from that 
        simple thing and using it to power a load.  Well, you can do it.  
        Johnson has done it, but that information is proprietary since he is an 
        inventor.  All I can say about it is that he controls the spin-flipping, 
        and has been working with that long before the present spintronics came 
        along.  If the spintronics fellows get their ducks in order, they will 
        be doing it also.  Johnson has indeed built a self-rotating permanent 
        magnet motor, and I predict he will do so once again (the last one's 
        magnets were stolen in a break-in in his lab).  The point is, one can 
        evoke the exchange force in that contraption by various methods (those 
        are indeed in various books, but widely scattered).  The exchange force 
        is often momentarily several thousand times as strong as the H-field 
        force of the magnet.  Doesn't take a genius to see that, if you evoke 
        the exchange force repeatedly and in a controlled direction in an 
        all-permanent magnet motor arrangement, you can use the exchange force 
        to violate the line integral around the closed loop summing to zero.  If 
        it sums to a finite number instead, then you have a totally permanent 
        magnet motor that can turn itself.  If it puts out more energy than your 
        switching costs used to evoke that spin flipping and exchange force, the 
        system becomes a COP>1.0 system.  If you power a generator with the 
        permanent magnet COP>1.0 motor, and use a part of the output to power 
        the switching and timing, now you have constructed a COP = infinity 
        (i.e., self-powering) system. 
        
          
        
        That is the type 
        thought processes we are trying to "feed". 
         
        
          
        
        Kawai, e.g., did 
        develop first a COP>1.0 magnetic motor (described in his U.S. patent) 
        and then also a self-powering magnetic motor version.  Control of his 
        motor, his company, and his fate was seized right before my eyes and the 
        eyes of my colleagues, by the Japanese Yakuza, here in Huntsville, 
        Alabama in 1996. Otherwise, we would already have placed Kawai motors on 
        the world market, at Kawai's specific request. 
        
          
        
        Those who are 
        uninterested, or who wish all the work done for a complete textbook etc. 
        up front, are not my interest.  First, no one is paying for this except 
        me --- some $300K out of this working man's pocket over the last 30 
        years.  I'm interested in getting the attention of those sharp young 
        grad students and post docs and interested engineers who are deeply 
        interested, who wish to get into the "field that is not yet a recognized 
        field" from a scientific basis, and are going to do a lot of personal 
        work on the matter.  My purpose is to save them lots of looking and 
        searching.  That's all. 
        
          
        
        So we release what we 
        can.  We cannot release another inventor's exact information if we have 
        a non-disclosure agreement with him!  And inventors do not make the 
        patent laws; they simply have to try to live with them. 
        
          
        
        Anyway, that's the 
        approach, and that's the rationale.  To some folks the information is 
        highly useful.  To others it is of no use whatsoever.  That's 
        understandable and expected. 
        
          
        
        But one cannot be or 
        do all things for all people.  So one simply chooses what one can do, 
        and does it. 
        
          
        
        And of course one 
        keeps a sense of humor.  It is amazing how many folks can tell me how to 
        do it better --- but have never done it themselves or even tried it. On 
        the other hand, there are lots of folks who also do find the information 
        both interesting and highly useful. 
        
          
        
        A real researcher in 
        this field has a database which he works continually.  That's collected 
        and filed hard references, a written database of all of that on his 
        computer usually, and a growing set of filing cabinets.  If he's an 
        experimenter, he also has equipment, instruments, parts, and various 
        experiments in process. Those are the persons I'm targeting primarily. 
        
          
        
        There are also now 
        some spectacular new developments in thermodynamics that I will be 
        covering on my website in the immediate future.  The second law of 
        thermodynamics in its present form is as dead as a doornail with respect 
        to electrodynamics.  We'll cite the exact references (including in 
        Physical Review Letters) and what they mean. Every charge in the 
        universe violates the present second law, as does every EM field, 
        potential, and every joule of EM energy in the universe.  Stay tuned for 
        the flash.  We'll also provide a rigorous  restatement of the second 
        law, that IS consistent with experiment, IS consistent with the gauge 
        freedom axiom, DOES provide for negentropy, and DOES allow overunity EM 
        systems.  And we'll cite the rigorous physics papers proving the various 
        aspects of all that. 
        
          
        
        So it's an exciting 
        time.  The scientific community is at last beginning to arouse a bit 
        from its long slumber with respect to COP>1.0 systems. 
        
          
        
        After all, a common 
        solar cell has a COP = infinity, even though its nominal efficiency may 
        be only 17%.  So the long objection that COP>1.0 EM systems are 
        perpetual motion machines has always been ludicrous.  Nonetheless, such 
        a charge is still regularly levied at overunity researchers. 
        
          
        
        Ironically, the real 
        perpetual motion advocates are the electrical engineering departments, 
        professors, texts, etc.  The standard CEM model used in electrical 
        engineering implicitly assumes that the source charge freely creates 
        energy out of nothing, continuously, and pours it out continuously at 
        light speed in all directions, thereby forming its associated fields and 
        potentials reaching across the universe at light speed. 
        
          
        
        Did any of your 
        professors ever brief you on this long-vexing "source charge problem"?  
        Or encourage you to look for a solution?  Or encourage their graduate 
        students to tackle the problem for a doctoral thesis?  Almost certainly 
        not, since most professors themselves no longer are aware of the 
        problem, and are adamantly committed to the proposition --- falsified by 
        every source charge in the universe --- that COP>1.0 EM systems are 
        impossible and thus represent "perpetual motion machines".  But in 
        electrical engineering all EM fields and potentials and their energy are 
        implicitly assumed to be created by their source charges, without any 
        observable EM energy input to the source charge.  It is experimentally 
        established that there is no observable EM energy input to the source 
        charge, involved in the process of generating the associated fields and 
        potentials. 
        
          
        
        How then does one save 
        the conservation of energy law itself (the FIRST law of 
        thermodynamics?)? 
        
          
        
        There is no solution 
        to that problem in all of electrical engineering, but the solution (the 
        broken symmetry of any dipolarity, such as a charge together with its 
        clustering virtual charges of opposite sign in the vacuum) has been in 
        physics since 1957, with a Nobel Prize awarded to Lee and Yang that 
        year. So it's pretty simple.  The EE model cannot even model the 
        solution to that source charge problem because it does not contain the 
        active vacuum, its interaction with charge, or a broken symmetry in that 
        interaction.  Yet the solution has already been known for 45 years, but 
        is outside the range of the EE model itself.  Therefore it is the EE 
        model that is deficient and it should be expanded dramatically. 
        
          
        
        My work is designed 
        for persons who will think deeply about that type of problem, and its 
        implications, and who are interested in trying to find a solution to it, 
        or recognizing the solution that is available in particle physics.  The 
        work is not designed to produce kits or teach anyone how to build a 
        specific COP>1.0 EM system.  That will come later, way down the line 
        when we finally have a developed cogent theory and a developed COP>1.0 
        technology.  We have neither at the moment. 
        
          
        
        For kits and that sort 
        of thing, we just point out overunity experiments.  They can replicate 
        the Bohren-type experiment at will (it's performed many times each year 
        by most nonlinear optics departments, under the guise of the "negative 
        resonance absorption of the medium".  That's a euphemism for  "excess 
        emission of the medium").  Bohren's type of experiment is done in the 
        infrared or UV and outputs 18 times as much energy as the experimenter 
        inputs, anywhere, anytime.  In short, the medium emits more energy than 
        one inputs (by standard calculations).  So how does one save the 
        conservation of energy law when faced with the proven Bohren 
        experiment?  Again, the answer is there, but not in EE. 
        
          
        
        I do direct the 
        interested party to where he or she can indeed find a reproducible 
        COP>1.0 EM experiment.  Then it's up to them what they do with the 
        information, or whether they wish to do the experiment for themselves. 
        
          
        
        Meanwhile, by making 
        available the concepts and principles that do allow COP>1.0, and 
        explaining exactly why, along with hard references on each part, the 
        young researcher can just start from where I am and not have to spend 30 
        hard years of his life getting there. 
        
          
        
        That is what I'm doing 
        or trying to do.  Nothing more, nothing less. 
        
          
        
        Best wishes, 
        
        Tom Bearden
