<font face="Arial">It all makes perfect sense! Well done you!<br>
<br>
Child labor is the answer to many things, I feel (I am JOKING
here, folks!). Some years ago we took some foreign students on a
trip to the nuclear power station near here (there was a visitor
centre then, with tours. Not sure if there still is). Water is
heated by nuclear fuel rods, to make steam to drive turbines to
make electricity. <br>
<br>
I was struck by the small physical size of the two turbines, which
have a very large output, making something like a quarter of all
Scotland's electricity. I found myself thinking, Why mess about
with nuclear fuel rods. If you had a sufficient number of
hyperactive chilldren on bicycles, with the right gearing, they
could spin the turbines.....<br>
<br>
After all, we never heard about children with ADHD when we sent
them down the mines and up the chimneys......<br>
<br>
I am JOKING folks, OK?<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
<br>

$50/hr shop time,
more really, because my younger kids did much of the work
of pulling hammers
off, gluing Ecsaine on, etc. I focused on the weights and
overseeing the kids.
The piano is in otherwise very nice condition and has a
beautiful cabinet. It
is in a small church, and you gotta figure their
replacement cost would be $4k
or so. It took them 2 years to approve spending $500 on
the repair and another
$500 on a climate control system. Imagine how long it
would have taken them to
approve a $4k purchase? <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
