Oh, and it's killing off fish and other       living things.              Now of course all that happens when your suction and       exhaust water pipes kill off the fish that are in       a 1,500 foot semicircle around them is that...              ... is that the fish that are 2,000 feet away have       lots of food to chomp on.              >How did they expect the Second Avenue Subway to run--on coal?              Speaking of which, if you're in the Savannah, Georgia, area,       hie thee over to the Savannah Railway Musuem.              They have a human powered handcar and 750 or so feet       of track to go back and forth on.              It takes a bit of effort to get it moving, but once       you've started it's easy. Well, at least for the       short distance.              As it turns out the handcar is only 375 or so pounds.       I'd have thought more like a thousand.. Well, of course       once you add in the people riding along...                            --       _____________________________________________________       Knowledge may be power, but communications is the key        dannyb@panix.com       [to foil spammers, my address has been double rot-13 encoded]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
