| ==Bruce DePalma== | |||
| '''Bruce DePalma''' (born '''Bruno James DePalma''') (], ]–]), son of noted orthopaedic surgeon ] and elder brother of film director ], was a well known figure in the ] community. | |||
| De Palma claimed that his N-machine ], a device based on the ], could produce five times the energy required to run it. According to mainstream ], no such device is physically possible. De Palma studied electrical engineering at Harvard (1958) and taught physics at ] for 15 years, working under ]. He was also employed by ] of ] fame. | |||
| Bruce De Palma's development of the '''N-machine''' concept in 1977, among his other anomalous devices (at least one of which, De Palma claimed, displayed ] characteristics) and the claims surrounding them, set him on a collision course with his more mainstream peers. His claims of "]" were vigorously refuted over the course of twenty years, by conventional scientists and some members of the alternative energy community alike. | |||
| His search for financial backing for the construction of a marketable N-machine saw him relocate from ] to ] c. 1994, and then ] in 1996. Probably his greatest ally in his conviction that the N-machine could solve the world's energy and environmental crisis was ], a Project Director with the ], with whom he corresponded regularly over many years. Tewari's ], claimed to be 200% efficient, is based on the same theoretical foundations as the N-machine. | |||
| De Palma's death in New Zealand in October 1997 put an end to his most ambitious free energy project, and occurred only weeks prior to the official testing of a device constructed over the course of 6 months in an ] workshop. The test was attended by, among others, the project's financial backer, Bruce Bornholdt, a prominent ] barrister, as well as the pioneering developer of the ], Robert Adams (now deceased), who observed the operation of, and measured electrical output from, the N-machine. This single test failed to demonstrate the ] potential of the N-machine - most of the output energy being lost as heat - and the project was immediately dissolved. | |||

Latest revision as of 03:37, 24 June 2024
If a rule prevents you from improving Misplaced Pages, ignore it.
By all means break the rules, and break them beautifully, deliberately and well. That is one of the ends for which they exist ...
Pedantry and mastery are opposite attitudes toward rules. To apply a rule to the letter, rigidly, unquestioningly, in cases where it fits and in cases where it does not fit, is pedantry ... To apply a rule with natural ease, with judgment, noticing the cases where it fits, and without ever letting the words of the rule obscure the purpose of the action or the opportunities of the situation, is mastery.

Proposed deletion of Telegeodynamics
The article Telegeodynamics has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
WP:NOTMIRROR / single primary source public domain source material, not a real thing. Also self promotion of one editors book.
While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
