<VV> Astro Cammer Motor Dreams

[D. Barry Ellison]

Couldn't agree with you more.  There was an interesting article in my most recent Popular Science about a guy out west using multiple multi-vane windmills to generate wind power mounted in line, along a flexible shaft, generating more power with less mass than the big 3 vaned windmills.  Will the opposite not work?  I will work on it... when I have the unlimited time/money.
