Yes, many still look for that magic valve. As a good
rule
of thumb, don't invest in anyone that says he has found it.
For the most part, we haven't been able to model the
mathematical part correctly that shows that it can't be
done. We haven't found one case in nature that uses the principle.
This is usually a good case for there not being a way to
do it. As we look at everything man has done, we notice
that nature has often been using that principle for something
else for billions of years. It is vary important to explore
why we can't do it but foolish to believe that because we
don't know why we can't that somehow we will beat all the indicators
and find the trick that nature missed and only we could find.
Do you realy want us make belive that Nature already had invented
MS-Windows before ? Not even Blind Mother Nature van be that blind.
