Ideas Happen
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?

the social structure of our society gets off (pardon my french) on having to pay for things.
and you would have noticed that the gym has become a place for socializing and being seen as an added benefit to burning fat. going to a 'free' gym would defeat that purpose, i think.
whereas those peoples who could actually make use of a free service are unlikely to have fat to burn.
i don't really know, marketing and stuff isn't up my alley, just a thought. it sounds like a kewl idea though.

interesting idea definitely. of course, its a bit difficult to hook up the free weights to this gadget so it'll work for the people whose idea of gym is to do endless cardio and hit a few weight machines.
Assuming this kicks off, since I concentrate on free weights mostly, I wont be contributing much energy. The question is, do I still get in free?
