Perpetuum Mobile I think. I'll know in about a week.

None such should be dismissed without first pushing them at least 4
standard deviations up the curve, and preferably more. For instance,
the You tube video that started this generates sds of separation from
reality in every sentence. Some things don't.
eg.1: I'd hate to be the equivalent of the guy who turned down the
Xerox process early on. I know what I think before I start. but my job
is to end up knowing what I know. And why.
eg.2.: I have a Heath Robinson concept which almost certainly would
have made major inroads into the Malarial Mosquito problem in Africa.
B&M G turned it down. I know it will almost certainly work - it's a
question of practicality in practice, not feasibility. I don't want to
let equivalent things  walk past me when I'm in the vetting role
without knowing why they were rejected.

So far I haven't heard 'over unity' or "Casimir effect" mentioned,
which is a good start. Nor even Tesla.
