  5. I think it wonderful that people still spend their time and money to do impressive things just because.
    No practical reason . . . .just because.

  6. didn't really see a need to comment on this, but since it were on speed, and the captcha was 'nometh', I have built steam engines, and home made cars and cycles, Never thought to combine the two. I have a steam plant that will power the house if fossil fuels go completely bye bye. Trouble is it's only 30 horsepower and as big as a car, Cadillac not civic. I can put a v-twin in an enclosure, with the generator, and carry it to the nearest outside power access point. I don't see things getting that bad, so my steam plant may get dismantled or sold to a worthy cause.

    Like giving Al Gore *back* the rotary shaft!
