I lost both Monday due to Wilma but got Power back Thursday and cable just now... you know what, my room is fucking clean as shit tho. LOL! Boredom... very powerful sometimes
Yard work, I have a big yard and its lots of trees and shit. Also my room, and most of all... i complained since I didnt have a shower since sunday... gross.
Oh I did take a shower ASAP... what sucks is I have well water so my step-dad had to turn on the pump and get the air out of the lines... so after having power I still had to wait a few hours to take a shower. It felt so nice
wouldn't it be cool if someone invented a low cost generator that ran on the gravitational or magnetic field of the earth that powered a whole entire house? now that would be something I would want to create! then you wouldn't have to worry about power failures.
oh, and PureRebel, such "big imaginations" are where almost all if not all our technology comes from. So I wouldn't be talking if I were you. that computer you're typing on came from "big imaginations". have I made myself clear? Or do I have to keep repeating myself?
well it's quite easy, in a respect. we already have generators utilizing a stationary magnetic field. and the magnetic field of the earth is changing polarity so slowly that it still might work. the only problem is that the field is quite weak when compared square foot for square foot of a regular generator. I could be wrong though.
Fair enough. I'd be more inclined to believe you than me.
I'd say it would be eaiser to use Gravity instead then. And I've got a nice picture in my head of a giant ball clacky thingy, you know the balls that clack against each other? You know the thing with 5 metal balls, you pull one up and let it fly into the three middle ones and the one on the other side swings out...
Yeah, so, picture of a giant one of those...really big. I'd say as tall as a block of flats...which is only around 20 floors around here...and someone stood on a ledge holding a ball I don't know how many times bigger than them, and harnessing that to get the energy...
what you're reffering to is called a pendulum. and still the magnetic energy from the earth can be enhanced in the same way electicity can be enhanced. I think......
