Economics Of Alternative Energy Consumption
This article is part of a series on The Waterfall House energy experiment. At the beginning of a this experiment, an economist said, “Using water will be cheaper than using electricity to control our environment.” A scientist said, “It can not be done.” So, the economist set-up the scientific experiment in an attempt to prove [...]

Introducing The Waterfall House
Prelude Introduction Q: Is a waterfall house possible? 1. Is it physically possible? 2. Is it economical? A: Yes. The escalating global energy crisis, and resulting climate crisis, is a problem worth solving. My preference would be nuclear fusion; however, the scientists have told me it is many years away. In fact, it may not [...]

The Pickle as Will and Idea
Is it possible to light up a pickle like a light bulb? Abstract. The seminal work on pickle electrification by Hamburgen et al.(1989) http://www.research.digital.com/wrl/techreports/html/TN-13/ raised many further questions, of which this work will address none. Instead we propose to explore the zeitgeist of the electric pickle experience in a global context, limning as it were, [...]
