Oh jesus, this is funny!!! :)
Paul, the average molecular speed is zero in any direction.
Have you ever seen a box of hot air flying off at 7km/sec without any rocket?
You have invented the perfect Maxwell's demon. Perpetual motion... to hell with
the second law of thermodynamics!!! Paul Andersen's hot air engine has it all.
All the molecules have a speed in one direction.
Hahahahahahaa!!!!!!

Paul, you are going to be so embarrassed by this you will have to at least
change your name. You are really making an absolute fool of yourself.
