Congo, Brazil and the Americas; uranium stove math; free energy

SUMMARYCongo, Brazil and the Americas; uranium stove math; free energy (Nov 6, 2026). CROSSING, Record: American bottle gourds (about 10,000 years ago, Florida and Mexico) match African gourds, not Asian ones. They drifted across the Atlantic, with model crossings of 100 days to about 9 months (Kistler et al., PNAS 2014). Record (Las Casas's journal of Columbus's 3rd voyage, 1498): people of Ayiti told Columbus of "a black people" who came from the south and southeast with spear tips of guanín. Royal assay: 18 gold, 6 silver, 8 copper (of 32 parts)

OPENthe claimed match to West African gold alloys (Van Sertima) needs the primary source. Record: Abubakari II (Mali) sent fleets west (al-Umari, quoting Mansa Musa); where they landed is OPEN. MINING, Record: Lake Superior copper worked about 8,500 years ago (Pompeani, Radiocarbon 2021). Record: Katanga copper worked for centuries; copper crosses (croisettes) used as money. Record: Brazil's Minas Gerais gold rush (1690s on) was worked by Africans from West and West-Central Africa; the transfer of African mining skill needs sources. Pattern: the same lands hold the same treasures: copper (Katanga, Lake Superior), gold (Akan, Minas Gerais), uranium (Congo's Shinkolobwe, Ute country, Brazil). Geology: Africa and South America were one landmass (Gondwana); Congo and Brazil share rock belts. URANIUM STOVE, Record (math): 1 g of U-235 fully split gives about 8×10^10 J, about 1 megawatt-day. A 5 kW stove for a year needs about 2 g. The energy claim holds; it needs a chain reaction (a reactor), not a lump in a box. Oklo ran on water and ore by itself. Record: small nuclear sources powering for decades: Voyager's plutonium RTGs (since 1977); about 1,000 Soviet strontium-90 RTGs powering Arctic lighthouses; plutonium-powered heart pacemakers (1970s). FREE ENERGY: Record (holding): Invention Secrecy Act (1951); thousands of patents under secrecy orders at any time (FAS counts). Record: Tesla's Wardenclyffe tower (1901–17); Morgan stopped funding; the "where do we put the meter" quote is Disputed (no primary source). Record: Tesla patent 685,957 (1901), "Apparatus for the Utilization of Radiant Energy." Claimed: T. Henry Moray's radiant energy device (Utah, 1930s). Killed (by the record): Keely motor (hidden air pipes found 1899), Joe Newman (National Bureau of Standards test 1986), Stan Meyer water car (Ohio fraud ruling 1996). Disputed: Bessler/Orffyreus wheel (1712–17).
