RE: Impossible Science #4
Just read up more on sterling engines, fascinating use of engineering even if it is not technically a perpetual motion machine because it requires heat input.

yeah, people often call it PM though, and there are often schemes involving using the friction or or magnetic induction of electricity to generate heat to provide the input . That said im actually a dumbass because i was thinking of something completely different when i mentioned stirling engines.
I was thinking of a searle effect generator, which is another kind of fake PM machine that has a big, almost cultish following. Its basically a kind of tesla magnet generator, but with extra stages.

Just limit yourself to inform (It is much less stressful), as soon as you try to educate someone over Internet, you'll find yourself trying to climb barefooted and with no hands a 50 meter cliff.
The power of youtube videos is strong, almost as powerful as the power of ignorance.
Indeed, the Sterling engines require a temperature "difference" (not precisely heat, you can make it work by cooling a part).
This tells you something, the poor folk did't make it to your part that mentions heat as energy.
Great post, upvoted.
