		<description>Your going to take my access away if I carry on like this.

So I was thinking that if this is a hoax then there has to be a reason, right? So unless these guys are just in it for the hoots and giggles then the only reason I can think of has to be money. Think about it, for the cost of a single page add in one newspaper you generate shed loads of free publicity off of the shear craziness of your idea. Now if somehow you can make money off of this then by now they must be racking it in.

But why would they go down this route in the first place. Well we looked it up on wikipedia and it seems to indicate that Steorn may have had some financial difficulties a few years back, now all of a sudden they are willing to make all these problems right, just as they initilize a massive viral ad campaign. read it yourself - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steorn

One website we found asked why none of the scientists who have looked at this &quot;wonder device&quot; have come forward to tell people about it. Unfortunately I don&#039;t see this as proof of it being a hoax. I mean if someone told you that they had captured the loch ness monster and invited you to go see it. You walk in and sure enough theres nessy, you do all these tests and yup this is a real live living breathing creature. What do you do next, do you run out and tell the whole world and all of your peers that you now believe in the loch ness monster. Of course not, they won&#039;t believe you and will think you a fool because they haven&#039;t seen it themselves. Until this thing is proved to be real or not no one is going to be willing to stand up and say that they believe for the very same reason.

I think you should keep an eye on this, I really want it to be true as it would change the world as we know it. It could even make it a safer place as with renewable energy sources you don&#039;t need oil, no need for oil then America pulls out of the middle east, no America in the middle east then what have the terrorists got to be pissed about...ah peace on earth...until someone works out how to turn it into a weapon and destroys us all!!!!</description>

		<description>Er sorry, me again. Just found this that you might find interesting. Its a transcript of an interview with Sean McCarthy, the CEO guy in the Steorm video. It seems to indicate that what he is saying is real...or that he is just a really good liar. I&#039;m going to pop over to IMDB now and see if I can find either of the guys on there as actors.
