566164 2007-07-05 16:40:00 We are experiencing some technical difficulties with the demo unit in London . Our initial assessment indicates that this is probably due to the intense heat from the camera lighting . We have commenced a technical assessment and will provide an update later today . As a consequence, Kinetica will not be open to the public today (5th July) . We apologise for this delay and appreciate your patience . Maybe it's running Windows ME!

Run the website and see it for yourselves: . steorn . com/orbo/demo/" target="_blank">www . steorn . com

I am currently watching the demo . . lots of people walking by but the little wheel, if it's supposed to move . . isn't . The screensaver is kinda cute though .

I at first thought this was a looped demo, but I see different people walking by all the time and they seem real as far as I can see .

Interesting! Camera 3 appears to be the best shot to see the street and people going by in the background .

Hey! This isn't the same group that invented cold fusion too . . . is it?????

That's because it doesn't.

566168 2007-07-06 08:44:00 It's because they've got macs set up next to it, the poor little wheel thing is probably trying to hide in a corner... LOL Agent_24 (57)
566169 2007-07-06 16:39:00 Ya know...I think everyone here who doesn't believe that this is real has gotta remember that in the land of really kick-butt whiskey and spirits, not to mention ghoulies and wee lil' men, this is probably as far as their science has gotten whilst trying to make gold out of coal, or in their case, peat moss.

Maybe I can get their head scientist to go with me on my time-travel trip next week.........

But it will succeed in making money as "It is the most stable and secure perpetual motion machine ever offered. It has a new Hairo interface too, so success is assured. You may need to upgrade the temporal magneto-gravitic properties of your planetary system to fully enjoy the benefits of this revolutionary system."

(Well, we expect some revolutioning soon)
