If you are referring to my statement about the magnet and steel, I am not confusing them. The force being applied to the steel is attempting to make it come into contact with the magnet. Energy is being released by the magnet as it draws the metal closer since it is having to work against my resistance to that motion. It would be possible to measure the amount of energy by attaching a force measuring scale to the steel part and slowly allowing it to come into contact with the magnet. You would be able to integrate the force times distance curve and obtain the energy.
Any technique that resulted in allowing the relative position of the magnet to the steel to be reduced could in principle release a portion of that energy. And, more pieces of steel could be introduced to the magnet in like fashion where each one resulted in more energy release. Eventually, the field would no longer exit the pile of metal and further energy could not be easily extracted. The total amount of energy available escapes my calculation. The fact that steel is being used in the extraction process might multiply the amount of energy that can be obtained as compared to that which is stored in the original field pattern. I am not confident in the later possibility and perhaps someone else might know the answer.
