Vincent,

I did some experiments with the "SMOT" magnetic ramp many years back and it
called for very long and thin magnets. I was able to forcefully tape together
smaller magnets to increase the width of the north and south poles so they would
push a steel ball up a ramp.

When you take 2 magnets and align them (NS-NS -> NS) the magnetic fields of the
smaller magnets will merge to produce a single magnetic field.

You have observed the reverse effect where a large magnet is split into 2
smaller magnets (NS -> NS-NS). Pulling the magnets apart takes force and so
energy is required to construct the extra pair of poles.

Personally, I think some people may have produced a working MEG but they did not
understand why it worked and Bearden failed to give a simple and valid
explanation.

I believe that what they missed was a phenomenon resulting from magnetostricion
and the resulting interaction of positive charges within the ferrite atoms. When
you combine this phenomenon with LC resonance you get ferrorresonance. For more
information you can check out this white paper on my blog.

concept. Submissions in regards to this posting should be along the lines of
explaining why the polarity switching is occuring.
