gollark: I'm pretty strongly biased against claims of "free energy" and stuff because if you could trivially produce vast quantities of energy through some magic thing, *it would be used everywhere*.
gollark: Also the ether, which as far as I'm aware was obsoleted a hundred years ago by better theories.
gollark: Well, "occult" and "free energy" are worrying keywords.
