<p>Recently we&#8217;ve heard updates from steorn&#8217;s side, it is about their <a href="http://www.steorn.com/talk/">talk</a> which infact broke the silence of sixteen months long when their demo failed.</p>
<blockquote><p><a href="http://www.steorn.com/talk/">Steorn Talks</a></p>
<p>Our &#8216;talk&#8217; initiative is designed to give people within the technology development community an opportunity to understand the Orbo proposition and ask questions in a direct, face-to-face format.</p>
<p>The programme of talks starts in Dublin on the 17th December 2008 and will involve a sequence of talks in universities around the world, including the US/Europe and the Middle East.</p></blockquote>
<p>This long span of silence from Steorn filled lots of anger and distrust inside the fans, followers and people like me who is hoping for better world.</p>
<p>here are the few <a href="http://freeenergytracker.blogspot.com/2008/11/steorn-talks.html">comments</a> and responses towards this inititative of Steon Talks from it&#8217;s followers,</p>
<p>between Sean please come up with working model&#8230;.please do not fail us.</p>
<p>&#8220;Why do you need a series of lectures when a jury of preeminent scholars is in the bullpen ready to be unleashed on an unsuspecting world?</p>
<p>Hmmmm.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Not to mention that if a picture is worth a thousand words, a demo is worth, what? A quadrillion?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Fool me once&#8230;. Shame on you.</p>
<p>Fool me twice&#8230;. Shame on me.</p>
<p>Fool me three times&#8230;. Hi, my name is 007.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;What? Sean need to drum up some more investment? The Middle East, well didn&#8217;t one of those guys just invest in Citigroup? I guess they&#8217;ll buy anything&#8221;</p>
<p><span id="more-161"></span><br />
&#8220;For an engineer nothing is impossible&#8221;</p>
<p>should have read:</p>
<p>&#8220;For an engineer nothing seems impossible&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Sean&#8217;s coming out party. This is the first in a series of lectures explaining how they got Orbo so badly wrong, especially when you are great engineers like Steorn. A revelation of how enthusiasm, unbridled passion, guinness and investors dosh skews the scientists perspective.</p>
<p>Anybody attending Room 134 please bring your own supply of flash lamps, light bulbs &amp; fuses&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;This whole Steorn Talks thing only makes sense if December 17th will be Validation Day&#8230;</p>
<p>Actually it would make quite a Christmas present.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Why is there a screw missing on the left side of the Steorn Talks poster? Does it symbolize something?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;What is there to talk about? WHAT IS THERE TO TALK ABOUT!!!!???? HELLO OUT THERE!!!????&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;You have a device that will re-write the laws of physics and make you an instant billionaire. Just demo it, be done, and start cashing checks.</p>
<p>Unless, of course, &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;So they have attributed the &#8220;For an engineer, nothing is impossible&#8221; to Brunel?</p>
<p>Can someone tell me when Brunel wrote or said this? Or is this just more Bullshit on Seans part?</p>
<p>I have never heard of Brunel being responsible for this.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;On second thought, maybe Steorn is taking advantage of their yearly opportunity to give a talk to burnish their image a bit. Maybe they figure it will add some legitimacy to the orbo project and keep the investors quiet.</p>
<p>Maybe they think they have something and maybe they are crooks. Either way, this might buy them a little time, and money.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I can&#8217;t see any other reason for doing it. As someone said, if they have OU, why f**k around with giving talks, why not just unveil the thing in a blaze of publicity?</p>
<p>Whatever happens at the talk, there won&#8217;t be any orbo. The only chance for entertainment is if Maryugo and Pennies jet over to ask insulting questions.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The sign shold read:</p>
<p>&#8212;-FOR OUR&#8212;-</p>
<p>INVESTORS</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>NOTHING</p>
<p>&#8211;seems to be&#8211;</p>
<p>IMPOSSIBLE</p>
<p>&#8211;SMcC&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t forget if you can&#8217;t make the talk you can always meet Sean daily between now and Xmas on Moore St.</p>
<p>Just head in the direction of the guy yelling &#8220;Three nodding donkeys for a euro&#8221;.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Actually I&#8217;ve always wondered how those nodding donkeys keep going for so long&#8230; Powered by Orbo, eh?&#8221;</p>
