(from a very dry Isle of Wight, only 357 mm so far this year. average over 800. Still, been very good for my pv panels, earned me £1500 so far this year...)


So you run a narrow-gauge third-world steam locomotive. 30
tons of wood is enough to get you from The Cape to Cairo with a modest
load. I do hope your engine has a spark arrestor because setting fire
to The Dark Continent could have political implications these days.
As for your positive-vorticity panels, what do they do?
Logically they should suck and swirl, like a Dyson.
