Got me thinking that a river turbine might be a way for free electricity. I'm not sure of the water velocity but it seldom freezes above 40 below. Anyone have any experience with that sort of thing? Life begins at 40. Recoil begins at "Over 40" Coincidence? I don't think so.

I had what I thought was a great idea for a hydroelectric plant, but the land owner wouldn't sell me the land I needed. I wouldn't tell him what I wanted the land for.
