Unfortunately, physics tells us that perpetual motion machines don't exist.

to quote my physics teacher when i proposed a device:

"you can't break the laws of thermodynamics because you can't break the laws of thermodynamics!"

When I was younger I obsessed about 36DDs but now that I'm older I realize those are much to big and 32-34Cs work very nicely.
