: Also for what it's worth....

: I received a copy of the latest Edmund's Scientific catalog today. On the cover they have a sterling engine that runs on a hot cup of coffee.

: Time to sell that Exxon stock and invest in Starbucks?I don't know if i am red i to give up the ic just yet. I want to breathe more hydrocarbons as i am flying down the drag strip at speeds most people don't even know exist. Going fast in a race car with the big bad 471 ci chevy revin' at 8500 rpm's is pretty addicting! But, i would gladly explore stirling motor applications to drag racing to keep our lungs clean. The little research i have done on the stirling design indicates thier is a huge power potential we are missing out on. My first reaction is to hook up a Miller Synchrowave 300 to the hot side and a nitrgen chiller to the other side. Fire up the welder and the Kelvinator and hold on cuz' this Camaro is gunna hall booty!! We don't even have all the research done to build a feasible , reliable, cheap and durable stirling and i want to hot rod one! Must be a personality flaw. Same flaw responsible for this nasty FIRST addiction!!
