Curious, converse open in the chit chat section. Feel free to put your input.

fiction or reality....

I have no clue... very very interesting though.

man he is starting to impress me...

look at this video http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6956020086785479412&q=John+Hutchison

I am impress...:thumbup: the science is Extreme, would you think?

A quick Google search turned up different pieces of info, but Wikipedia, even with their spotty record, seemed to have some good info on it.

A few excerpts:

According to Hutchison, while trying to duplicate experiments done by Nikola Tesla, he discovered a number of strange phenomena, including:

1. levitation of heavy objects
   
2. fusion of dissimilar materials such as metal and wood
   
3. the anomalous heating of metals without burning adjacent material
   
4. the spontaneous fracturing of metals
   
5. changes in the crystalline structure and physical properties of metals.
   
6. disappearing metal samples

All these phenomena are jointly grouped under the name Hutchison Effect (HE). Supporters like Mark Solis, his former webmaster, maintain that none can be the result of known physical phenomena, such as electromagnetism.[1]

Hutchison and his supporters surmise that these phenomena arise from zero-point energy or the Casimir effect. Hutchison also says that he invented over-unity batteries, which he calls Q Cells or Hiroshima cells and which, obtain energy from the vacuum using the Casimir effect.

And:

This "Hutchison Effect" has been claimed for years, without any independent verification - ever. In fact, its originator can't even replicate it on demand. This has been investigated more than once, been part of documentaries on the discovery channel, but still never seems to pass critical muster. This is in the category of folklore. In general, the "American Antigravity" web site caters to such folklore and its enthusiasts.

—Marc G. Millis

And:

In 2005, Hutchison admitted that he hadn't actually reproduced his effect since approximately 1991. The earlier levitation footage from the 1980s is genuine, he says. But this footage has been characterized as looking like it was taken in a booth with an upside-down camera.[14] Hutchison continues to reject charges of fakery, and maintains that his "effect" has been demonstrated many times in the presence of scientists and, he says, members of the US Army Intelligence and Security Command.

Hutchison states that he reproduced the effect in his Ash St., New Westminster apartment as recently as March 2006 for National Geographic, as well as for author Harold Berndt, whose film of the event can be found on the American Antigravity website, which covers Hutchison's assertions

Thanks for your input,

Look at this one http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8201832677516855236&q=John+Hutchison

He's a smart guy, although, I think he's a bit off his rocker. It's interesting that all his experiments work only when nobody else is around, and he won't repeat them when anyone is around...

The fact that he makes his stuff work by randomly tuning a bunch of radios and old military surplus equipment makes it even harder for me to believe.
