*oooooooooooooooooooo* that's *NeAT* If Kamen, a well-respected inventor, has made a technical breakthrough that would allow him to create small, relatively inexpensive Stirling engines, engineers said, the effects would be far-reaching. In theory, every home could generate its own cheap power with a device the size of an air conditioner that uses natural gas, drastically cutting down on the waste inherent in the electric grid.
An advanced Stirling engine could have wide applications and could literally change how humans use power - bringing its inventor incredible riches.
*mad*... why does that guy get 'incredible riches' and i get another pile of doggie-doo,eh? damn it. (hehehehee...) if that thingie works, screw the subar00000000. put one of those in the back..
