Here is something neat that I ran across on the net: Physics prof has
invented/developed a way to transmit electricity without wires. That reminded
me of something that happened in the class room a few years back; before PC
projectors. I was trying to move an overhead projector into position to
illustrate something in class and the tangle of electrical cord was getting the
best of me, and I made the comment "why doesn't someone invent wireless
electricity," to which some wise acre student in the back of the classroom
said: "they already have, it's called batteries." Well, that brought the
classoom down.
At any rate: in the future we can throw away the very unreliable VW engine and
stick in an electric motor, and we won't need any freakin wires.
