Didn't Tesla invision this idea many decades ago? Thought he built a huge tower to wirelessly transfer energy over a couple square miles or something. Saw it on a show a few years ago. I don't think he even got a chance to fire it up as funding from some tycoon was cut off. Maybe it wasn't Tesla.....my memory is bad.

Pretty neat. Imagine our tanks.......free of plugs!!!!!

Into horses, dogs, animal rescue. Am FINALLY getting back into having aquariums after a couple years off. I've always been partial to the black lace veil angels. I'd love to go marine but don't think I am disciplined enough for that just yet. Ummm... I dig kayaking and well, all sorts of stuff.
