Did anyone watch the CBS evening news Monday night (Jan 9)?  
Specifically the closing story done by Rather.  It briefly
described an inventor in Missippii who was trying to patent
an 'engine' which could produce up to 10 times the energy
required to run it.  It was apparently based on revolving
magnets.  The patent office has turned his patent request down
although the physicists who have investigated his work felt
it was worth further study (although it seems to be in contradiction
of many accepted physical laws).  [The story said that essentially 
the energy was created from matter!].
  I would be very interested in any detailed information on
this project.
