In Reply to: There may be limits to its magical powers... posted by musetap on July 28, 2017 at 20:36:55:
Recently returned from Canada. Last leg of the trip was Niagra Falls. Been there several times but always enjoy the information on the amount of hydro-electric power generated by the forces of nature.But...The most magical thought was some of that power was actually flowing into the lovely state of Connecticut where I have the misfortune of living. The miles of high tension wires, transformers, switching stations and poles. To finally reach my over taxed house, run into the electric meter, the breaker panel, thru the romex cable in the walls and finally into the builder's grade electrical outlets. And after that great journey to be totally harmonized with nature by a 3 foot wire.
Told my wife about this on the ride home and she recommended to bring a barrel next time we visit the falls.
