Re:More hippes...
Don't forget the Tilley Foundation.

Re:Simply, NO.
1: How does the brain work? 2: How does the brain handle failures? We're learning that... 3: How can we interface hardware to the brain? Provide data transfers? They've already invented an artificial hippocampus...that part in the middle of your brain that's responsible for storing and retrieving memories. I'd look it up, since I'm pretty sure it was on
/. before, but I'm too lazy right now. 4: Provide a learning, crash-resistant OS This one could be difficult. Definately won't be MS branded when it comes out though. 5: Provide very low, or no, heat CPU (your brain doesnt stay at 120F, does it?) I don't know about yours, but mine stays at a constant 98.6F. 6: Use Quantum computing for branch logic 7: Understand Node/Traffic theory 100% mathematically Technical hurdles. But they'll be jumped, and we'll sit back and wonder how we ever survived without such knowledge and power. Excuse me while I check my email and make sure there's no messages on my cell. 8: Provide some sort of emotion (all jobs include psychology, doesnt it?) The last thing I want is some cheese-eating highschool boy thinking about my emotional state as I order my Big Mac. 9: Easy way to rapidly fix either mechanical or hardware problems (thinking of nanite soup) Don't know what to say about that one... 10: Energy dense source for battery power. And remember, Bayttery power has NOT increased linearly with CPU power. Hydrogen. Better chemical batteries. Lower power consumption needs. Perpetual motion Deloreans. It can be taken care of. -
Re:Yeah, I gas from biomass too
It's Mr. Fusion! Now if I could only get a hydrogen powered DeLorean and a 21.1 Gigawatts hydrogen-powered generator....

Shoulda asked...

In other news
The Tom Bearden and Tilley foundation projects are still up and running.
-
Finally!
Now we don't have to develop a static powered car, but can rather make a Mr Fusion to power the Flux Capacitor so we can go to the future where all of life's problems are already solved!

"Selected Engineering" my ass...The description of the car is quite a load of crap. It throws out irrelevant, and even misleading, specifications.
It has 4 wheel disc braking for fast progressive, fade-free stopping.
... The rear sporty louvers are aerodynamic designed so that it almost eliminates any drag effect. All this with a stainless steel body makes for a great car.- Standard disc brakes are hardly fade-free. Regardless, this specification is mostly irrelevant.
- The rear louvers (window slats) probably increase drag compared to a rear windshield only by creating turbulence behind the car.
- Stainless steel is heavier than a regular steel body. Is that a good thing?
When making the decision as to what car would be converted as the Tilley Electric Vehicle it was decided that the DeLorean would be best suited for several reasons. It was far ahead of its time with a stainless steel body, looks with its gull wing doors, modern interior and most of all it made a statement. In short it was one sharp looking car.
Rather than get a car that will give you the best chance for success, they choose a technologically outdated car with a bad reliability record. Why? Because it looks like it will work.
A 1981 DeLorean was therefore selected that had less than 21,000 miles on it. Great condition of the body and interior.Perhaps a racing stripe will make it faster?

Re:What is this? Hoax? No Details?Not only did they create the, err, amazing technology in this car, but they also claim on their website
Electricity that powers the 1,800 Square foot electric vehicle building is from another invention, currently being tested, that uses no outside power source. It needs no fuel, wind, solar or hydroelectric to operate. It is a totally new type of self contained and self generating alternative energy invention and is completely different from what is used in the electric car.
What are these guys waiting for? They could be making billions supplying the needs of California, money which should be leverage in fighting "big oil/government/car companies/aliens (the mean ones, not the nice green ones)/etc" to get their astounding new invention out the door. So not only did they create one amazing new breakthrough that should be out real soon now, but they also claim to have a completely different solution to all of the energies needs. Boy, these guys just don't stop! Geniuses!
This is just too over the top. To see people on here crying for people to give them the benefit of the doubt just blows me away. Does anyone recall the internet scam where the guy claimed to have a super form of compression (another classic fraudsters realm) that could compress high resolution, full screen video over a 14.4 connection? In the end it ended up being that he gutted his demonstration PC and actually put a VCR in it, and by these demonstrations he got millions in investments. It was eventually his wife who ratted him out when the house started to crumble. I would love to give a link but I can't find it right now.
BTW: I have an algorithm that can compress any file down to one byte, however big business is stopping me from releasing it! -
Re:This should be under a better heading...
Well, I haven't witnessed any of it PERSONALLY, but if the information here is accurate, then I was say that's a start.
QUite frankly, I don't need clear and compelling evidence that this isn't a hoax to at least be interested in it.
Don't write off stuff just because you've already come to the conclusion that it can't be done. -
Magiclly generated power?
What is this about? They say they have invented some method of producing electric power without wind/solar/hydro or fuel? It all seems like snake oil to me. Anyone have any insight into this? I just seriously doubt people who make claims like this and then give absolutly NO evidence or even a suggestion of how it is done.
