Hi Martin,
I can report no problems with list content in New Zealand, a
corner of the world that Kipling described it as the last, loneliest and
loveliest. (Dunno about the first two adjectives but it's certainly still
among the loveliest.) To the point: no problems, no need for
Been reading Jared Diamond -- Collapse, How Societies Choose
to Fail or Succeed. I realized something -- as a society col-
lapses, many people become Afraid, and Fear Makes People Stu-
pid.
So there's actually a failure-promoting tendency as the
descent progresses! :-)

Hi Ken,
I think your right on target with this observation. Thank you!
I have a lot of ties to Germany and had conversations with concentration camp
survivors and former German soldiers and often think about how complex the
situation was there and how it shouldn't be seen as an anomaly that
I have been through all my reference books, etc. and I can not find any
information on wind powered water pumps. Does any one have the directions
for building one? What are they capable of and other such information will
be appreciated.
Bright Blessings,

2nd BIODIESEL SVO MEETING IN EDMONTON, AB, CANADA
We are looking for people who are interested in biodiesel SVO (straight
vegetable oil) as fuel - their benefits, making/buying them, learning and
teaching ourselves and our communities.
Featuring: SVO specialist Ed Beggs of Neoteric Biofuels
Hello Kim
Thanks to the list member Kirk McLoren I found a very interesting link to
an e-book on wind energy, it was inside the message he posted the 21th of
septembrer 2004. I pasted the message if you do not find it searching the
archives.
There you might find what you are looking for.
Best
Thank you and yes, I did download that book when Kirk listed it. It is
very good about generating power from wind, but I don't want to create
power. I want a pre-electric wind powered water pump. Mankind has been
using them for thousands of years, so they should be reasonably easy to
make
Kim,
What do you have in mind, the common everyday windmill or something
else? In the event it's the standard windmill I'm surprised you didn't
find anything on them. I would think a trip to
http://www.yoderswindmillservice.com/ should start answering all of your
questions. Then try
Franz,
Can you describe the distribution of the biodiesel?
Will the fuel be sold to commercial customers or
retail customers? I am interested in the distribution
network...
Thank you.
Phillip Wolfe
