Because of the nature of that first post, I guess it will naturally follow to get into some of the common conspiracies. Unfortunately I haven't watched that show with Jesse Ventura as it is probably interesting. I guess I'll start with the dumbest ones first.
Free energy devices! The ones that work aren't actually free energy devices but easy ways of getting energy. Solar panels could be seen as this kind of free energy because you don't do anything and it collects energy from the sun, and a proposed free energy device using quasicrystals: http://adf.ly/MNOX claims to capture electromagnetic radiation similarly. I would not invest in something like this until it is proven, but the basic idea of it is sound at least. Quasicrystals are incredibly amazing things though, because they only have crystalline properties on the large scale, while they appear irregular on a small scale. That itself is very strange, and it also is how other types of crystalline structures show symmetries in a higher spacial dimension. To get back on topic though, it just may happen to be that quasicrystals cannot redirect electromagnetic radiation as claimed. I need to look into it. The real dumb free energy device is the electrolysis of water alleged to improve gas mileage. You'll hear talk about "HHO" gas and "Brown's" gas. These aren't actual truths. They claim that there is some magical intermediate gas that comes out that takes less energy to produce than it gives in combustion. The reality is: 2H2O (liquid) -> 2H2 (gas) + O2 (gas) The energy required to break it apart is more than can be contained from the heat of combustion of what is produced. This is obvious and I only looked into it to see if it improves efficiency by making the rest of the fuel burn better, and that isn't true relative to how much energy an upgraded alternator would take, or how little would be normally produced. Cars can run on hydrogen, though, as well as natural gas, and you can collect natural gas (which is methane mostly) from composting things. There are all kinds of free energy scams out there and the way to know is usually how they explain where the energy is coming from. Anything referring to semi-spiritual energies or alternative science would be the type of scam I'm talking about.
Now I'll have to move on to Nikola Tesla. He was an amazing inventor and scientist. http://adf.ly/MPse Children learn about the lightbulb being made by Edison as if he was one of the greatest geniuses ever, or even the greatest of the time. I guess the foundations for our entire modern electrical system, which are the foundations for 20th century development, are to be ignored entirely (AC power), along with his invention of the radio which was stolen from him. Tesla and Edison had a bitter rivalry. Tesla wouldn't like Edison because he screwed Tesla over badly, and he criticized Edison for his lack of theoretical knowledge. Anyway, that isn't related. The conspiracies came out of his inventions being so ahead of their time, and some of the sketches and devices being confiscated when he died. There is a minor story about him having an electric car that ran powered by a small mysterious black box, another about him almost getting killed while attempting time travel which he allegedly discovered, and another about a U.S. ship disappearing or getting messed up in a time travel experiment or something gone wrong. More interesting than those entirely silly stories, however, are those more based on his writings. http://adf.ly/MPuK Many of his theories would allegedly rely on physics different than standard models to work. Various notions based on the term "unified field theory" are found in all kinds of conspiracies, and especially what is said relating to Tesla, and there may be some truth to what Tesla believed as he was working on a theory relating gravity and electromagnetism, but modern conspiracies distort this using their claims http://adf.ly/MQLK. The link before the most recent cites the time he used radio waves and accidentally caused some destruction in Colorado and how the physics of that work out according to their theory. http://adf.ly/MQRP The beginning post reflects the typical kinds of things thought. It, however, ties into the more general conspiracy web about aliens, illuminati, NWO, etc. that I'll get into later. http://adf.ly/MQaJ This page is one of the more interesting. Tesla was said to be a showman, but with this and several other postulations of his in mind, that could be understated. These are obviously some extreme claims Tesla made, and even more extreme claims made by the site. http://adf.ly/MQjz HAARP, alleged to purposely affect weather and cause earthquakes, is another Tesla conspiracy. I'll just post this now and move on to the rest at another time.

Introduction to Me
Because this blog is just about my ideas and random crap I decide to put up here, it would help to first introduce myself. My main interests are usually things that are based in deep thought, novel ideas, inventiveness, and creativity. The biggest thing that I'm into is J.S. Bach's music and that of other composers as well as progressive/technical metal, but there is also science, philosophy, historical speculation, inventions, short stories (H.P. Lovecraft is my favorite), and all kinds of random other stuff. I'll put a lot of cool links on here and talk about them as well.
Not too long ago, I was watching youtube videos on fractals and then I got into watching things about sacred geometry. That stuff got very interesting although you can quickly come upon crap to weed out. It is the same way if you want to learn about the Sumerian religion and Annunaki. Their religion in ways can be interpreted to propose that aliens engineered humans, and there are many archeological finds with things depicting what really appear to be depictions of spacecraft and their operators. I find it interesting at least how their religion came about to be, and it is ironically more plausible than the things that are made up in other religions (many of which were almost directly derived from this religion). There is so much that we don't know about early civilization, which is hinted further by finds which provide good evidence that the Sphinx and great pyramids were actually built around 10,500 BCE. The Sphinx wear comes from rain, which hasn't been there since around then, and they are exactly aligned with stars in reference to that time. If not built then, there is at least meaning to that year. Truly rational thinking guides one to keep a certain degree of plausibility in thinking of things that aren't debunked while rooting out the baseless claims and derived conspiracy stories. Just because people make up crap about UFO's does not mean that there are not a huge number of sightings and unedited videos. The Nasa ones are the most convincing. As to what they are and what pilots them, it is all speculation really.
That little off topic paragraph shows the fine line I ride on. The boundaries of what we know have many people making up crap on one side, and others completely doubting solid yet ambiguous evidence.
