time to get serious

with the oil/ energy problems not getting any better I've been sitting on a simple design to produce free energy. It's only a theroy at this stage but i believe it is a very cheap process to put into practice. Selling it is not an option as there have been a lot of good Alt fuel inventions that seem to disappear as some in this world aren't so keen to change our ways.

I'm wondering if there are certain people/ companies that give out special grants. I am a kiwi living in the states and as i am not a citizen here i don't think i can get a Govt grant.

Any ideas.
thanks.
Stuart.

Can't hurt to at least do some grants research.

Also have you considered having a relative housemate or friend apply for the grant for you? Maybe adding your name as a partner?

I do work for a company that has developed a new oil pump (started about 5 years ago) there are grants through the dept of energy for new energy technology (we got one way back when) there is also a program called SBIR that provides technology related research grants.

I bought a program once that was supposed to search for gov grants and it was a total waste. You can go to your Congressman's office (or ours had it at least) and get a book that has gov grants in it.
