Just had a bunch of local science teachers visit here to see how
things are done in an environment like this. They asked me what I
thought of science and math education and I told them that science and
especially math are taught as if it existed apart from life. It
should be taught showing how it is used every day for things. High
school level math can be used for most engineering and optics design
without any calculus. Kids are bored silly at how it is taught today
and I never learned anything in science in high school. All of my
math was essentially self taught before college. All I know about
electronics was self taught.
We were talking about inventing and on e teacher said she wanted to
invent a tiny outboard motor that was not internal combustion for use
by kayakers, AHA, that is THE application for my H2O2 powered micro-
turbine idea.

For $300 you can buy an electric kayak motor with a range of almost 25
miles.

Please note that Interstate 90 will be closed this weekend across
South Dakota. This closure will allow the Federal Government free
access to haul a 200 ton piece of coal to Mt. Rushmore so that
President Obama can be added to the Presidents on the monument.
