All the computer people I know here have ties to the aerospace/defense industries and are just a little bit too interested in my ideas. I have outlined it to them in broad terms and the consensus is it just MIGHT work. It's simple as can be and takes into account what little I know about the laws of physics and I see no contradictions. Basic idea is creating useable torque with little power consumption. I think much of the problem with developing alternate energy sources is that too many people are looking for ten-dollar answers to two dollar questions.

"Open source" means setting aside patents, and so forth, and
sharing and co-operating with everyone. You then pick up the
dollars for writing the book, doing lecture tours, providing
special one-off services, after dinner speaking, and generally
being the guru.
The alternative is to spend ?50,000 on a patent which may
fail five years into the project (or upon the first occasion of
its being actually challenged in court) and living under conditions
of self imposed secrecy and oppression. You may find yourself
getting the attention of some very unpleasant individuals who
wear sun glasses indoors.
Open source is what "Red Hat" used with their version of the computer
operating system Linux, and when their company floated on
the stock exchange, they all became millionaires.

Lets take a for-instance.......say a person thinks he has a viable idea...early trials show it can be made to work, but he needs the expertise of an expert in another field to make it possible. By neccessity he must disclose whats on his mind. Whats to keep another person/corp./ govt. entity from taking over? I've been to deveral inventors forum and they all advuse the same thing.....say as little as possible, and at that only to people you trust completely. Are these the issues ??? that Open Source addresses?

Open source as I see it, is simply sharing and working together to accomplish a task for everyone to benefit from. You seem to want to make money off this idea or concept, in which there's not much we can do for you, since you would need to show us the design. I would say, yes if you disclosed your idea, and if it was any good, you bet your hide someone will take it. If it has to do with free energy, it will be a long a difficult road, if not impossible to get a patent, as Joe Newman has come to conclude.
Open source? is that even possible :'(
