Physics Buzz: Free Energy and the Press

Harlow mentions in passing that “Many scientists say the technology violates the basic laws of quantum physics.”

Simply put the Universe doesn’t work that way. The problem here was this report aired at the same time that CNN announced it was closing down its entire science bureau.
