Urgent Evoke - no power credit needed;just input.

Finding ideas on sustainable energy has not being easy as I intially thought,it has been tough;not in the sense that there are no ideas out there.

There are many ideas,however,I find that most these ideas are one dimensional in the sense that they are focused on one type of technology -microbial fuel;hydro;solar etc.All these are credible concepts(some better than others).But since the only thing that is constant in life is change.

Fourth of July on the Lake

This past weekend was the annual celebration at the lake house in Connecticut. It is amazing that the lake is still so clear and beautiful after all these years.

The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

Future

FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More
