Conference on Energy & Accountability

What are the ethics of innovation, when so many people need a viable energy innovation and the government doesn't? What about the personal examples of active suppression and theft of invention, even in the midst of an energy crisis? How are some individuals, groups, and organizations making a difference on their own? We hope to answer some of these questions for inventors as the Conference on Energy & Accountability takes on more of a discussion format. What are the ethics of innovation, when so many people need a robust energy innovation and the government doesn't seem to know that the peak of world oil production is scheduled for 2010? (Below is a link to the internationally-based Association for the Study of Peak Oil (ASPO) in case you are not familiar with "Hubbert's Peak.")

Come hear some of the heart-rending stories, all of which are off-the-record (no media recording). It is a two-day event on Veteran's Day weekend, November 9 & 10, 2002, so that you can fly or drive back on Monday, which is a holiday. Reagan National Airport in DC allows direct metro subway access to the Greenbelt metro stop and the Holiday Inn College Park hotel has a free shuttle service. Otherwise, BWI airport or Dulles airport is also available with about a half-hour drive. See our ad in Discover magazine.

The confirmed speakers include: Dr. Scott Chubb, Dr. Steven Greer, Dr. Mitch Swartz, Dr. Elizabeth Rauscher, David Hamilton, Guy Obolensky, Patrick Herda, Peter Hunt, Dr. Ted Loder, George Hathaway, Dr. Robert Bass, Ivan Kruglak, Dr. Gene Mallove, Dr. David Nagel, and Tom Valone.

• Dr. Scott Chubb will be speaking on "Accountability and Risk in the Information Era: Lesons Drawn from the 'Cold Fusion Furor.'" He has edited a book published by Gordon-Breach on "Accountability in Research" which addresses a lot of ethical issues in energy research and his experience with cold fusion. Scott also is one of the Naval Research Lab’s researchers, which successfully concluded 13 years of research with a comprehensive summary report (Vol. I, 3.5 Meg ~121 pages in pdf format .)
• Dr. Elizabeth Rauscher has several patented inventions, such as an ELF electromagnetic detection device for predicting earthquakes (US patent #4,724,390), which have attracted the worst from the government and industry. A physics professor from U of Nevada, she is widely published.
• Dr. Gene Mallove is the Editor in Chief of Infinite Energy magazine where he has had personal experience with the problems of inventors.
• Dr. Bob Bass is a physicist and inventor, presently with an aerospace industry and will be speaking on his personal experiences.
• Dr. Ted Loder is a U of New Hampshire professor speaking on "Recent Developments in Antigravity Research and Media Attitude." He is the author of the recent AIAA paper (pdf), "ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES FOR THE 21ST CENTURY." (A pdf version also available on the IRI website.)
• Mitchell Swartz, MD, PhD is an inventor with several patents and journal publications. He has had extraordinary experiences with at least one company over his licensed invention, besides many Patent Office horror stories. He was recently denied a hearing at the Supreme Court level for a calorimeter patent application on appeal.
• Peter Hunt will be speaking on "Scientific Secrecy and Mendacity: A Federal Addiction." With an MBA degree, he has held the position of Director of Research and Analysis for the First House Subcommittee on Energy and Power from 1975 through 1981. He also served on the Federal Advisory Board of the Office of Environmental Education and helped develop environmental legislation. He is also a networker with a lot of inside information and experience on Capitol Hill.
• David Hamilton works on energy-related programs at the DOE and is a sincere advocate for innovation.
• Patrick Herda will be speaking on "Innovative Nuclear Technologies" and the struggle of introducing a viable nuclear waste remediation process into market. He is the VP of Nuclear Solutions which has a gamma irradiation treatment for nuclear waste and also nuclear battery patents.
• George Hathaway will be speaking on "Suppressed Inventions vs. Proper Measurements." He has a privately funded energy lab and a successful consulting firm in Canada.
• Guy Obolensky is an inventor, author, and entrepreneur specializing in energy medicine. His company, Bromion, has been a government contractor many times in the past.
• Dr. David Nagel is a professor at Georgetown University and will review the ten years of ICCF, developments in the cold fusion history, which now has been redeemed by the NRL and ORNL research.
• Moray King will speak on "What Ever Happened to the T. Henry Moray "Radiant Energy" Device?" It's widely published history, including a book by T.H. Moray, and the Government's reproduction project which was led by his son John Moray will be reviewed. Mr. King, who coincidentally has the same first name, is the author of two books on zero point energy.
• Ivan Kruglak will be speaking about his experience with two Russian energy inventors and his successful business plan that received funding. He is the CEO of Coherent Communications and an entrepreneur/inventor with a successful history of building up technology companies and selling them for a profit.
• Dr. Steven Greer will be speaking on "How to Avoid Suppression of New Energy." He is an author, medical doctor and the director of the www.DisclosureProject.org with personal stories of energy invention advocacy.
• Tom Valone is President of IRI who is interested in personal disclosures of energy suppression, energy supply accountability, invention accountability, and integrity in research. His welcome speech will summarize the speakers who were too intimidated to present their stories to the Conference on Energy & Accountability.
