Deep-End Thoughts

Some Readers might be a little confused by this Post of PGL. There should be no confusion of this Issue. Now that the Rich have received as much in Tax Cuts as they can reasonably argue for or expect, they want to eliminate the Tax Cuts they granted to the Poor, initially introduced to get the Poor’s support for the Bush Tax Cuts in the first place. A good Rule of Thumb to utilize in consideration of Tax measures stand as Congressional salaries will always be maintained at the level most wanted by lobbyists to be reduced. This Rule applies not only for Representative and Senatorial salaries, but for Congressional Aides, Committee legal representation, and Consultants also align in the desired area of Tax rate suppression. Those whose Incomes are less than this financial boundary likely face a harsher real rate of Taxation, while Those above this level must pay exorbitant political campaign contributions to maintain low Tax rates for themselves.

The previous paragraph made some sense, at least as much as this Author normally achieves. He was considering the problem with most Wind systems, the inordinate cost of producing massive Wind generators. I said to myself this is a huge waste of Capital assets, harking back to the days of Clipper ships which were efficient and fast; I even contemplated whether a fleet of Clipper ships today could compete against the heavy carriers, but dismissed the thought because of labor Costs. My mind started to drift lazily away, as it does more and more often as I age, then I had a sudden Thought. I immediately start a quest for talented personnel to question about my sudden inspiration, stopping with the idea that all I needed do was put it out live on my Blog.

Here is the Idea:
What is necessary for an electrical Generator? Just a revolving Shaft covered with static binders, surrounded by stationary static binders; the interaction of the binders providing an electrical discharge collectable by power line. Idea: why does the Shaft have to rotate? Why can’t it be pulled forward and backwards through the cylinder? A normal Tie rope stretches and retracts as it bears alternating weight–like a Wind sail. What is Cable but a twisted metal rope, and couldn’t such twisted metal rope be coated with static energy-generating binder? How much stretch play would it take to generate electricity by a stretch-binder cable through a covering cylinder binder also serving as a power cord of discharge? Poor mathematician here, but it would depend on the clamp pressure of the cylinder cover, the grit of binder utilized, the total stretch which could be achieved per foot of cable at what constraint of cylinder–need a competent Engineer. Could such a Generator rope be plugged in while maintaining ability to be coiled and utilized in longer or shorter durations? Could such a Generator line be developed at a industry Standard capable of operation in a variety of Wind forces? Could it ever attain a Energy generation capacity equivalent to levels which drove old Sailing ships around the Globe? Could a short Sail and Boom on a free-wheeling base produce sufficient electricity to power most of the electrical needs of a home? Do I sound crazy? lgl
