Hi,

I noticed some of you talking about Ossie's circuit ,
I wonder if you knew about Hans Coler who had designed something that 
appears to be working on the same principle back in the 1930's, it also 
reminds me of some of Tesla's experiments, those depicted by Bearden 
specifically.

See this page for a description :

One original thing is that he used permanent magnets as conducting 
bodies for the current fed to a central coil.
