I'd have all of them write a story about some problem they are interested in solving, the knowns and unknowns. For the first week or two, everyone would have to read a random subset of those papers, offering feedback for all, and help if they were interested.
Essentially I'd take the old 20% Friday idea from Google, and make it 100%, I'd take point on managing the herd of cats that results, until I found someone way better at it.
Personally, I'd try to run down every hint of over-unity in energy production I could find, like cold fusion, cavitation as an energy source, etc. I'd systematically make sure that none of them work within experimental bounds, and publish all the results.
