USDOE, ATTN: CNES-Hearings
1000 Independence Ave SW, Room 7B-044
Washington, DC 20585

On February 19, 1998 I attended the CNES-Hearings in Washington, DC. I explained that for more than thirteen years I have been exposed to newspaper articles, videotapes, rumors and more recently internet web sites which sparked and sustained my interest in technology related to a so-called "zero point vacuum fluctuation energy field." Purportedly this technology, which includes cold fusion and other technologies, promises to provide inexhaustible, "free," super efficient, non-polluting energy sources.

Obviously, if there is anything to this alleged "zero point" technology it would be the basis of the Optimal Efficient, Non-polluting Global Energy System. Therefore, I asked two questions.

First, because I'd been told that she had been given "zero point" information at the first CNES hearing in California, I asked Ms. Monlyn "whether the DoE has fully investigated this alleged 'zero point technology,' and, if so, where are the results of this investigation available?"

Secondly, I asked Secretary Pena, "if the DoE has not fully debunked the 'zero point technology'," I would like to know why no comprehensive examination of 'zero point technology' has been concluded."

After looking around the auditorium for someone who could answer my question, Secretary Pena promised me that DoE would send me a written response

Rather than consume time at the hearing, I promised that if my questions were not resolved that afternoon, I would submit written comments citing sources of information concerning these "zero point" technologies:

"The Coming Energy Revolution," by Jeane Manning ISBN 0-89529-713-2
"Miracle in the Void," by Dr.Brian O'Leary ISBN 0-9647826-0-X
"Free Energy: The Race to Zero Point," Video produced by Harry Delinter (1-800-795-8273).
