Regardless, of whether a VS works or not, what's really sad are people who use science and scientific knowledge as a justification not to experiment. A basic tenet of the scientific method is experimentation -- without it there is no science, period. Why anyone who calls themselves a scientist or puts such strong faith in science itself would use that same knowledge to justify and promote a desire for complacency and self-imposed ignorence is beyond me, and furthermore no true scientist. People did used to believe the world was flat, and they used the science of the time to prove and maintain that belief. That is, until someone questioned that and proved them wrong. If the VS doesn't work, I'm out $80 and some time. If it does work, however, then you're out the chance to prove yourself wrong and discover something new. You tell me which one's the bigger loss.


In any case, there's no desire to argue anything with anybody here. Personally, what I'd really like to see is someone who does have knowledge about electrical engineering actually buy and test one. I freely admit I don't have the test equipment or background to do that kind of testing, so to have someone do that would be really useful and I'd like to see the data.
