Surely your not stating that the electrons are in a stationary state though, right?

They have one of these in the game of Eve online. It quotes, "This device also has the effect of driving physicists mad whenever you say its name." The idea is one akin to the demon box (forgot the name of the scientist that invented that idea) but goes like this; If you had a box that had a metal slider in its middle, and inside that box was a little demon that could move about freely. Given that air inside the box has both hot and cold molecules, what if you could have the demon move all the cold molecules to one side, and all the hot ones to another, then split the box with that slider? You would have free energy, just from the difference of cold and hot! The energy in magnets is a lot like that. Electrons in the magnet are always moving from the North to the South pole. If they were more materialistic, you could set a hypothetical sail right at the cusp of their wave and just sweep up that sweet energy. So is the idea for this device to collect the electrons or to have them push a device?

The only true transportation of a person would have to be litereally transforming the matter of that person into light, concentrating and collecting all of it (perhaps by restricting where it could escape to) and sending it all as a stream to the destination. You would have to do this conversion without damaging the atoms structure, keeping the electric pathways in the brain, and either recording current exact positions of all electrons in the body or re-starting the person with resusitation (revive them, they would have to die for the trip.)

I suggest you take a look at http://www.scienceforums.net/forum/showthread.php?t=39215, which is a similar (mirror-like actually) thread about harnessing this type of energy.

I would suggest "God and the new Physics". As this site shows (http://www.acampbell.ukfsn.org/bookreviews/r/davies-3.html) the book is an introductory look into physics, comparing it with religion at some points to help build perspective. It really helped me understand the laws of thermodynamics and some other really tough concepts.

What if you could use gravitational forces to draw all this radiant energy into the small point? If there was some way to create a sufficient gravitational force you would avoid using materials like mirrors (which would absorb some of the energy you are trying to harvest) and get directly to the gathering of this energy.

I awoke one morning to the following train of thought. It isn't exactly precise or clear atm, but it does have an interesting perspective to convey. Given the amatureism that it was born in, please excuse the lack of sources and etc. in favor of the concept itself. I will continue to work on this as the thread matures. ...An observed experiment is thereby limited in its human expectations of the result. This is due to the fact that observed material (matter and reactions) are altered when in an observed state. The sub-atomics will react within a perceived limitation. How then, can you get effective results? The results you do achieve will be reasonably correct, but only the average values will be recordable. Other thoughts if monitoring the sub atomic variables in a observed environment (a large one, like a stage) will the range of possibilites (more on this later) portray infinity, or a larger recordable avarage? If so, this would show an effect on the radius that matter is surveyed on. Also, this would change the variables of expectation from an event. It is unknown if this effect would create a positive or negative effect, as this experiment has never been attempted. I can explain the concepts if anyone is confused about this.
