Is the total energy of the universe zero?

What they seem to be claiming is that there is a type of crystalline structure that, if spun in a total vacuum and zero G such that there are no outside influences to stop it, can be made to do useful computational work with zero energy input.

I find that incredibly dubious but am open to the possibility that it's because of what they know about this field that I do not.

>"Once again, Dr. Michael Mann and other climate scientists have been investigated by a third party to see if there was any wrongdoing in the “Climategate” scandal. And once again, they were cleared of any wrongdoing. They had been previously cleared by an International Panel of Scientists last year, by a panel at Penn State, and have been cleared by various other agencies as well. This time, the investigation was conducted by the National Science Foundation, and you can read the report in full here. Like the other investigations, the NSF found no evidence of falsifying data, manipulation of data, or destruction of data by Dr. Michael Mann or any of the climate research scientists based at the University of East Anglia."

>"Leaked documents suggest that an organization known for attacking climate science is planning a new push to undermine the teaching of global warming in public schools, the latest indication that climate change is becoming a part of the nation’s culture wars."

...from using it's beneficial products like technology and medicine? Or are scientists doomed to work on behalf of ungrateful retards, hostile to their findings?
