Re: Sterling Engine..........just another 'IT'

I agree that the Stirling engine could be a big waste of effort...but I'll be interested to see how he does with it....

(the basic problem with the Stirling engine is that it is indeed efficient...if you have the operating fluid at a very high pressure....which usually results in an expensive, finicky machine)
