Posted by timothy on from the perfect-for-annoying-neighborhood-pets dept.

Apparently this is the latest project of OtherPower.com and the site has a variety of other engergy saving/producing projects including a Homebrew Maytag Gas Battery charger."

    Yeah, but you could power a nice wind tunnel with your 3000kW ...

    Whoa! *IDEA*

    Then you could have a never-ending supply of wind for your turbine! This is gonna be great, I'm getting goose bumps. Now where's my hammer?

    These kinds of isolationists, who like to call their gay-islamo-neo-nazi-ecoterrorism xenophobic "self-sufficiency" are undoubtedly stockpiling food and preparing for the day when their paranoid dreams of Armageddon comes to pass. "Off-the grid"... more like "off the mud people."

    They're probably unemployed loser programmers who just have too much time on their hands and rather than spending their time doing what they should be doing -- asking their government for retrianing -- are trying to distance themselves further and further from the all-inclusive global mind.

    Stewart Brand lead a SWAT team of Homeland Security forces to shoot them before they make him squeal like a pig during his next weekend jaunt out of the city to bring light unto the inbreds.
