What is the Ultimate Goal?

[Jnana]

First of all, welcome! I think your questions are good ones. Unfortunately, I don't have any answers. The main obstacles I see to free energy are powerful organizations on earth who have a lot of money to lose if it gets out. It WILL get out, it's just a question of when. My impression is that our friends in high places really do want this technology released to be used for the good of all humanity. Whether we can handle it responsibly is another matter, and you are correct that there are many issues in that regard.

As to the side comments, humor is good, ridicule is unkind. Please be careful not to confuse the two. Ridicule is used to suppress the truth, so many here are sensitive to the use of that technique.

..and rhetorical -- to demonstrate a point. Did you get the point?

I'm not sure that the word "powerful" is most fitting, but I'll run with it for argument sake. If we all had free energy tomorrow, those powerful organizations would still be powerful. They would actually be all the more powerful.

It will get out when someone can find the fifth side of a square.

I agree, apart from "..to be used for the good of all humanity". Which friends are you referring to? Do you have any friend in mind? Or are you generalizing to quickly get to your point?

I am most assuredly correct. Thank you for the acknowledgment. If more people acknowledge that fact, it will take us one step further to actually having free energy (not that I believe free energy is the important priority (*hint*)).

Ridicule is a strong word.
