... No...liberals can be duped by just about anybody or anything...just look at all of their "religious beliefs". Dale Alexander And conservatives can be duped by anyone with a smile. As evidence, look at the people who voted for the Shrub and still think that Iraq was part or 9/11. |

Aside from your appalling ignorance, the lack of imagination you're displaying is , to put it bluntly, frightening. Wonder what you would have made of the Wrights? Or Copernicus. Moller's car is obviously a piece of crap, but a technology may arive in the future that makes it, or some similar contraption, viable. Just like all the people that went before the Wrights that were ridiculed, moller may have laid down a contribution that turns out to be more than a footnote in years to come. I doubt it, of course, but it is possible.. Bet you would have laughed at the guys investing in IBM back in '49, too.. Asshole. Just what 'contribution' did he lay down? There is no new aerodynamic information there, there is no new info on propulsion systems, actually I can't think of anything at all that is new to the industry. What is new is a clumsy, non-flying machine that looks like it was put together by some 'inventor' in a garage while ignoring common engineering practices, mainly KISS. Only a nut case would try to build something using EIGHT! small engines. Harry K |

There is no valid comparison between the Wrights and Moller so your argument is meaningless. Now, if you'd like to compare Moller with Jim Bede ... Rich Also no comaprison, both of those (Bede and Wrights) actually made flying machines. Moller has built what exactly? Harry K |

@bignews6.bellsouth.net: The fact that a large number of people calling themselves "conservatives" appear to have fallen into similar traps is true; but does not detract in any way from Bret's point. If anything, it further supports that point. What that intelectual liberals are the sort that support Moller? Bull****. |

At least the other two had a dream and some talent to go along with their sleaze, but came up well short of the mark. Jim doesn't even know where a mark is. -- Jim in NC |

But I seem to recall that, back in the early days of the ultralight movement, someone did build an ultralight using FIVE very small Briggs&Straton engines--which flew quite well as did his later designs...

No. It most certainly does alter your argument. It completely invalidates it. No, it doesn't. You compared Moller to the Wright Brothers, No, I didn't and accused anyone that would accost Moller as lacking of imagination. No, I didn't The truth is that by all accounts the Wright Brothers spent a great deal of time studying the work of others, experimenting and actually advancing the science. Their creation wasn't a pipe-dream come true. It was the fruition of years of study and built upon engineering principles uncovered by others. Moller has spent a great deal of time molding pretty fiberglass parts, and choosing the best shade of red paint to impress journalist and potential investors. His design flies in the face of common sense, let alone basic engineering principles. He has a design that depends on full-time flawless performance from at least four engines. Damn-it, that is a deathtrap waiting to spring. It is not sound engineering. It's not even sane engineering. He has not advance the science or produced anything worthy of note. If anything he has leached energy that could have gone to engineers that could develop something. Learn to read |
