WiTriciy

[Guest]

saw this today, looks really cool, theres not many new ideas very often but this one looks like it could be really usefull.

Its probably quite inefficient.

 

[dysfunction]

yes it says it has an efficiency of 40%...but thats usualy the same for new tech stuff...

 

[Bullitt]

Still, a step in the right direction i think.

No doubt we'll have a report stating this causes cancer/AIDS/lemon parties in the near future though.

 

[Chilly]

anyone else a bit concerned about megawatts of radio flying through their brains? We are already suffering the ill effects of being saturated with RF radiation, cant say I want any more in my home.

 

[Kryten]

I can't help but imagine that if this was to become common throughout homes, there would be knobs on the front of each house with settings for "Defrost, Low Heat (650 Watt), Medium Heat (700 Watt), High Heat (850 Watt)"

 

[Gumbo]

I was sooo right...

What ill effects?

This was on the BBC earlier this week sometime.
Link.

 

[mank!]

i thought this was your last post brooky?

 

[Clown]

He's a fucking liar.

 

[TdC]

now then. caaaaam dooon and see what happens.

 

[DaGaffer]

Good grief, have none of you read Knees Up Mother Earth? Nothing good will come of this I tells ya.

We've had Radio 1 saturating our brains for 50 years and still no apparent increase in moronicity. I'd say that's fair proof !

 

[Bodhi]

Woohoo electricity pylons are going to be 2m away from civilization in future! Score!





there is no sarcasm in the above post. Whatsoever.

Consider your statement for a moment ...

 

[rynnor]

Its a silly idea - at a time when people are starting to worry about energy effeciency their going to try and market an extremely innefficient means of distributing electricity to save people from the trouble of plugging things in???

The magnetic fields associated with electricity transmission have been associated with childhood leukaemia for years now - people are starting to worry about wifi but this would be a lot worse.

On the plus side you can wait till your neighbour gets it then run everything off of his mains ;P

Completely untrue. There is actually no evidence to support the claim that long term exposure to electromagnetic radiation (at power frequency - 50Hz) causes childhood leukemia. At the moment it's purely statistical nonsense.

There are proven biological effects (not necessarily harmful) during short exposures to high power EM radiation but nothing to support the 'daily mail claim' that you have made.

Everyone ends up dead anyway.

That really lifted my spirits on a gloomy sunday, thanks

I think I'll make it my sig.

I didnt say that the link was completely proven but the UK Governments own National Radiological Protection Board estimates are that exposure doubles the chances of childhood leukemia:

message for mank, it _was_ going to be my last post, but i decided to carry on regardless of certain retards (not meaning you)....


but quite possibly the retard that posted after your comment............

Correlation does not imply causality.

Wootie woot! do I win a tenner or something?

Click click.

Retards can't see the difference between Quakenet and Freddyshouse.
