"Pfffhssh. I say Fuck the man and his conservation of energy."

It may be better to use entropy instead of conservation of energy when talking about a perpetual motion machine. According to conservation of energy alone, a perpetual motion machine could exist. It is simply friction that causes rising entropy which disallows the perpetual motion machine.

Now if the perpetual motion machine was performing work instead of simply acting as energy storage, then it would be violating the conservation of energy. But that isn't what the principle of a perpetual motion machine is. It is an ideal energy storage system, not a free energy generator.
