How can the first 4 be energy sources, if energy is required to produce them?

REMINDER:

The above 5-Minute VIDEO is an eye-opener for those interested in actual history.

In the meantime, 1800s aerial transportation can't be dismissed. It was very much in vogue and even used by the US military well into the 1930s (despite the Hindenburg "disaster" helping to destroy virtual FREE air flight.)



This sketch depiction is from eyewitnesses that stated they saw the airship over Sacramento in 1896.

How'd they get the air in that gigantic airship?

Did someone sit there any blow it up with their mouth, like a balloon?

No. He thinks that’s what the G men use to get up to the firmament to change the star lightbulbs.

Oh. And that’s also how satellites work. They’re just ballons.

Did you watch the 5-minute primer?

"Energy" and its harnessing is relative as is its application -- is it not? To what degree would a car that gets 1000 MPG per gallon be considered, "Free"?

If the FREE energy concept of the 1800s sounds intriguing (along with the virtual blackout of history and info), it's up to whomever is interested further to follow up. I'm merely sharing info.

I do rather enjoy making fun of the class retard.

That is what you believe, right? I didn’t misstate your beliefs, did I?

Pretty much the same "method" as when you "accommodated" the LSU football team last year. (Remember?)

You are memorable, that's for sure. I just don't think your way of achieving that is something to be proud of.

Me too, but people who have never known AC are fine without it.

That’s not what I’m asking, anyway.

Smh.

Must everything be "art" or cult in order to discern actual truth?

One either researches history (REAL history) and understands 99% of "History" is a Lie, written by tVictors -- or you don't.

I get it. It's expected that most here ascribe to:

"We accept the world in which we are presented."

First, do you mean a gallon of gasoline?

If you do then lets talk about that.

A gallon of gasoline has a finite amount of energy which translates into a finite amount of work that can be done. Even if you consider 100% thermal and 100% volumetric efficiency from the engine the only way you are going to even begin to approach those numbers is with an extremely light highly aerodynamic vehicle and the payload including the driver would be minuscule.

There is zero question that had we forced ourselves to go down the battery powered car route they would be far more efficient than gas/diesel cars today. No matter the origin of going with gasoline initially the ramp-up time was far shorter than it would have been going with electricity.

WTF does that incoherent post mean? Transportation was not free in the 1800's or at any time in history. Do you think they used to just give horses away?

If time travel were available today… I would love to visit the 1800s all tourist like.

Same with several hundred other periods of time in the past.

I sure as frick wouldn’t want to live at any point in the past in comparison to today. Modernity is nice.

Would you rather live in the 1800s?
