      From: Impedance@UgotOCD.invalid              If you would ass an electric generator to your exercise equipment that heats       an immersion heater (use a special high-efficiency electric type for more       than you put in) generate steam that turns a turbine into another generator       you could get out more energy than you intended to put in with all the extra       energy you wasted designing the thing in the first place.              Sound like a cool idea for gathering wasted energy around your home? Maybe       your brain heat could be captured too and we could run a monitor for the       stupid ideas around here. Send pictures of the micro-gen that looks like a       hearing aid. We all want to see it in action.                     "Bob F" wrote in message news:k2d22u$ie9$1@dont-email.me...       All my non-motorized exercise equipment converts my exertions to heat with       high       efficiency, which helps keep my house warm.
