THE YOUNG AND PRODIGIOUS T.S. SPIVET( short 46/50 )
I did not understand what happened.
OK.And oddly, the time has come to take a look at this extraordinary invention.This is the first perpetual motion machine in the history of mankind. Well, T.S. How does it work...
Do you see him? Liza! That's is my brother. I can't believe he is on TV! I mean, This is the same spice that wore Velcro on his shoes untill he's eight years old because he couldn't tie his own laces. He is on TV! He went that time when he almost electrocuted me with his seismograph. Oh thats, its not mention that on TV ...
T.S., how long can the little wheel turn and produce energy without consuming energy?
Four dundred years then you have to recharge the magnets.
Four hundred years!so, you saying if this machine were one hundred times larger it could power all of the lights in this building for four hundred years without spending a dime in electricity?
Well, you still have to change the light bulbs given the ratio of lighting square footage, that's still significant cost.
I think the time has come to introduce a very special guest, T.S.'s mother, Dr. Clair.
