Looking for a web image harvester

[shbaz]

I've been doing nearly nonstop research into free energy, magnetics, and gyroscopic motion lately.. for me it's like one brain orgasm after another, for all of the stuff I find. The flipside is the tendency I have to want to kill people because inventions aren't used. For example, US patent #2982261, an engine which runs on air. I read that it produces a lot of heat, but it's a genuinely working device that uses plain air as its only fuel. You could say the oil companies bought it out, but this thing was filed in the 50's, which means more than 20 years ago it was already public domain.

But anyway, I digress. I need an image harvestor that will pull images by name. The design is simple, the files are simply named US00001111_01.tif where the 00001111 is the patent number and the 01 is the page number. See, some of these are upwards of 30 pages and that's a lot of tif to save before I can get to reading.

Any ideas?

I'm sure someone must know how.

Heat.... Use aerogel as insulation and your set

There are a lot of ways around it, it was made in the fifties which means that their oil products were way way less lubricant than the synthetics of today.

The most important thing to realize is that if you can burn plain air, you can burn anything with it just like we always have. So lets say we burn biodiesel too, but mostly air, and we have an engine that runs 200mpg with less heat (because bd is a lubricant) and with a totally biodegradable pollution free fuel (the plants used to make it will recycle the carbon dioxide it creates, no plain carbon emissions).

Another key thing to see is that aerogel is new and therefore uber-expensive, while air is not and the heat can be reduced by other means or applied to make something else useful, like steam or heat for a home (where it serves a purpose that would have been needed anyway, but without the waste of converting heat to electricity and then back to heat). If you used it to heat your home, you'd need a use for a motor.. well use it to generate electricity. Use a pump to get your water. Now you have free electricity, free heat, free water, and no fuel! The cost is only the maintenance of the devices, which is considerably cheaper than the maintenance of the fees you'd otherwise incur.

I've read up on free energy inventions a bit, but I've always tended to take their claims with a grain of salt. The problem with most of these inventions is that, although theres plenty about them on paper, IIRC nobody has ever built a working model of any of them.
Also, I'm not sure, but I believe that when you patent something, it doesn't necessarily have to work.
The thing that always made me skeptical about free energy devices is that most of them seem to disregard the 1st and 2nd laws of thermodynamics.
Hopefully there is some free energy source or device out there, but until then I'm just going to sit back and wait for them to perfect fusion power (scientists say it's only 20 years away! just like it was in 1960 and 1980!)

Well, here's a video (though there isn't a walk-around): http://pesn.com/2004/06/30/6900029PerendevPowerMagneticMotor/

I'm currently trying to build an electrical/magnetic motor, looking at a lot of concept drawings and reading quite a bit about it I began to see something that may help.

As for fusion power:

Not a good time for the future of cold fusion (if there is one)

But anyway, does no one have an image harvestor?

For centuries, inventors have been claiming to come up with magnetic motor designs that use nothing more than the power of permanent magnets for the motive force; and for the same amount of time, mainstream science has responded that this is impossible.  "It has been proven mathematically that no combination of permanent magnets in any arrangement will generate power."

As far as reputable online news sites go, I wouldn't rank Pure Energy Systems News among the highest.

Yeah, I'd kind of like to see a walk-around of that device before believing it.
