“The car of the future is a railroad car and a bike at the other end.”
This sounds like James Kunstler’s viewpoint – he thinks that all the talk of alternative energies is just typical human denial behavior – not wanting to accept that their unsustainable lifestyle (highly dependent on cheap petroleum) will have to change, they cling to fantasies like micro-nuclear generators in their garages, oil shale and oil tar sand

Speaking of Tesla. Has anyone researched Tesla’s inventions or Wardenclyffe Tower?
Some branch of the US government confiscated all of the experiments and equipment from Tesla’s laboratory – what was Tesla working on at the time? – where did that technology go? – why was Tesla’s tower torn down?
Immanuel Velikovsky is another interesting scholar – he was studying historical calendars and wanted to resolve what he perceived to be a dating mis-match between them – he thought that if he could find a global-wide event (earthquake, celestial phenomena, etc) he might be able to correlate the different calendars he was studying and resolve the dating mis-match
The global-wide event that Velikovsky found was a comet passing through our solar system – the event was documented by numerous sources originating from multiple peoples living on different parts of the planet – this discovery changed the direction of Velikovsky’s work and he ended up with a series of books documenting how comets have passed through our solar system and the effects those comets have had – his work was highly controversial at the time (1950s) and the mainstream scientific community actively tried to suppress it [if you have ever wondered about manna from heaven or fire and brimstone raining from the sky you need to read Velikovsky’s books for an interesting take on these phenomena]
James McCanney is another interesting scientist – he believes the universe is primarily electrical in nature and that the conventional gravitational models of the universe are incorrect – his books describe his electrical model of the universe and the plasma effects that occur when a comet passes through a solar system
I mention these three men for a reason – they all talk about the electrical nature of the universe and the type of events that would occur in an electrical universe – they all present evidence that makes the electrical model of the universe seem more logical and credible than the gravitational model being pushed by mainstream science – and, most importantly, they all hint at the unlimited energy that is available to us by tapping into the free electricity that permeates the universe
Tesla’s tower was an attempt to tap into this energy source – Velikovsky believed that the lost society of Atlantis had learned to tap this energy source – McCanney explains the science behind the energy source
Now here’s a conspiracy theory for you to think about: Tesla discovered how to tap into the free electricity coursing through the universe – he intended to provide this technology to mankind as part of their birthright to the stars – the implementation of this technology would be unacceptable to people with vested interests in petroleum so the technology was confiscated and suppressed

It’s ironic that I started this post by bashing people for clinging to fantasies and finished it by suggesting that we can tap into a free source of electricity – oh well, it isn’t easy being a whacko nutjob!
