A fascinating invention is being tested here in our little village.
by Gregor init is a beautifully simple machine that produces electricity from moving water.. we live on the columbia river 3 miles above the huge bonneville dam hydro-electric installation.. we have an abandoned lock that was built about one hundred years ago to lift river traffic around the rapids formed thousands of years ago when the naturally formed bridge of the gods collapsed.
the river now flows through it next to thunder island.. recently, an experimental device called the "eco-auger" was lowered into the locks current to begin tests of the beta model.
it is about the size of a small school bus.

Interesting, being a parent - pre- sonogram
by Gregor inmy wife and i teamed up and had 5 children between 1966 and 1978 (she did the hard part) we never knew the sex until the the little sweety was born.. now days, we know if we're having another grandson or grandaughter months before they're born.. big difference.. names = male or female?
better have one or the other ready for the birth cert.
