The Legacy Of Fred Flintstone, Alternative Fuel Solution Pioneer (the Real Deal, Folks!) Part 4
By GARKO
This article is the most recent of several articles which were the result of some amount of web based research I did into possible alternative energy solutions. These articles can be found at my Water 4 Gas Blog
Believe it or not, Fred Flintstone was dead on with his automobile by means of his bare feet sticking out the bottom!!! Yep, this is a major conclusion of my research! The cave man's only error is that as an a cartoon character he was he wasn't allowed to "think" on a big enough scale!
Creative individuals are beginning to discover that a major natural resource for electrical energy is human effort and it can be done without slave labor camps! Just doing nothing more than what we customarily do all the time anyway but by being a wee bit smarter about these activitiesas regards conservation and recycling of energy we can supply power to large cities!
So it certainly seems that ol' Fred had more going on in his head than it appeared! Well, this is one place where my investigations took me. I have written other pieces.
My original goal is to enlighten people about the treasure chest of alternative fuel information at my Water 4 Gas that teaches people how to convert your fossil fuel powered automobile engine into partial hybrid or total water-based hydrogen consuming system. But in that activity I have become so fascinated with the creative thinking of alternative energy that I wanted to share other amazing information I have found with you as well.
Experiments vary from a dance floor that generates electrical energy from the movements of the dancers on the dance floor to shoes that generate electrical energy by converting friction from simply walking into electricity. One of these shoes currently being tested can generate about six watts, more than enough to power a cellphone. Besides Fred Flintstone, another icon of 1960s television was Maxwell Smart's shoe phone on the Get Smart TV program. This is a new spin on a shoe phone!
Recapturing human activity into a power source has a long, strange history (no, not talking about Fred again lol). The first phones, two centuries ago, were powered by turning
a crank that produced an electrical signal to alert the operator when one was placing a. Hand-crank flashlights have long been available. So have hand-crank portable radios.
The primary point of distinction between those and these is that many of the new projects focus on recycling electricity that is a byproduct of routine human life, such as walking,dancing or exercising. Scientists give the ignoble categorization of "parasitic generators"s. There are a number of researchers working on capturing the energy of crowds. It's as if someone thought about the Super Bowl or a World Series game or a U2 concert and said."damn! If we could somehow. harness that energy!"
Human power may have more immediate practicality as an energy source in developing countries or in areas off the beaten track of humanity where there is no electricity available. The Defense Department Of The United States has spent tons of money in recent years on research into what they call "heel strike generators" which can be installed in soldiers' boots and might help lessen the battery load they need to carry. This is NOT an endorsement
Larry Rome, a professor of Biology at the University of Pennsylvania, recently launched a company called Lightning Packs which seek to sell backpacks which can generate electricity from the bouncing motion of walking (Think about the implications for some Hollywood starlets! ). In a recent test, his first design was able to produce around 15 watts of energy from the up-and-down motion of the pack
The research he has done on the backpacks was partly funded by the National Institutes of Health, as they were viewing them as a possible solution for carrying refrigerated vaccine supplies in remote areas.
I just want to steer some attention back towards my primary activity while I continue with these happy musings about Fred Flinstone's alternative energy solutions.
WATER4GAS is offering information at a low price which folks can use in their garage or wherever to create a small gizmo which infuses hydrogen into the gasoline/air mixture that their vehicle runs on.
The process makes bite sized particles out of the ones that the system uses as fuel. Therefore it is able to use considerably more of the fuel.
With WATER4GAS you can reasonably expect to lower your fuel usage by 12%. But many are getting thirty to fifty percent improvement or significantly more. Those goblets "musta" been pretty "blankin'" huge in some engines before. But with WATER4GAS they are made consumable so you can lower your fuel usage.
It also helps to lower emissions significantly.
This information has been purchased by over 9000 people already and the percentage of happy customers is about 99%! So that's a start! GARKO has found that adding water to the gasoline in your car just dilutes your gasoline :).But he can show you one of the best alternative ways to save on gas which is to power your car using water for gas GARKO is a Entrepreneur, consumer advocate, songwriter and activistFor a list of current fuel prices in your neighborhood email garko@startlingdiscoveries.info
