I'm a little hazy on a couple of the discriptive terms, but with my technical edumacation, I believe I've got the general idea. I am curious about the performance specifications. Do they follow a bell or exponential curve? Was there an environmental impact statement filed? And what are the longterm implications with respect to the developement of electron injectors for the Cummins diesel? Inquiring minds want to know. :-laf

That clip was good for a fake! He was in front of a standard industrial motor conrol center. ABB or Klockner -Moeller. When you hear engineers talk about the large generators it is almost as bad as that clip.
