Gone to
http://ideashappen.msn.com? It’s a website that allows you to pitch your ideas for money. If your successful you apparently get 50 grand to venture on your idea. The only problem is, that it is only open for US citizens. Bummer! Anyway I went to the website to enter a long time idea that has been growing in my head for some time. It’s the concept of gymnasium cum electric generator.
I have a loathing for gymnasiums where people come in to burn out excess fat. All that energy going to waste! And what’s even more astounding is that you have to pay for it!!! I wondered what people in the good Old Stone Age would do to shed excess fat. My conclusion, they didn’t have excess fat. They always had something or the other to work on, that burnt off all the excess energy that they happen to carry. Hence, the free gymnasium which would also act as a generator of electricity.
Application is very simple. Just connect all gymnasium equipment to a turbine. This turbine would generate the electricity. The gymnasium is free of course, since the sale of the generated electricity should cover the cost of the gymnasium and perhaps even leave a morsel of profit for the inventor? Wastage of energy is minimal. Any takers?
