*Fuel cells and the pulse on hearts, [TM] too* The heat generated in a WWeb device with a big screen will easily dissipate with a convection methanol system. The power is tiny. It's the air-surrounded ASICs which get specially hot and ears from holding phones against them for ages. EarCell [TM] would fix the hot ears. [EarCells are hearing-aid type in-the-ear stereophonic cellphones with a bluetooth link to the main box in a pocket or briefcase or just as a notebook puter]. Methanol [like chemical energy in general] is energy dense, so vast 'battery life' would result. Weeks with 300mm colour screens would be easy to achieve. Mqurice PS: On diesels they have low CO so used to be considered 'clean' though they are disgusting. That's why they got away without pollution controls for so long. The carcinogens they put out are enough to put the kibosh on them, let alone the sheer filth they cause to clothes, buildings, nose, eyes as anyone who has lived in London can attest. On hearts, when somebody dies, they don't need their house, car or heart anymore. The estate is sold to the highest bidder by the executor and the beneficiaries get the money. I don't see why a heart is any different from a house that they don't need. You think the house and heart should both be given away because the beneficiaries of the will don't need them? There is indeed a step function at the time of death. A very big step, right into a great big bottomless hole! I forgot to answer somebody who asked about my [TM] I just recalled. [TM] means I just invented it and that's my personal trademark so nobody can pinch it. Maybe it should be Copyright 1999 or something. Anyway, if they do pinch it, I don't really care. Some of them I'd like them to use, like VW40 [TM], EarCell [TM], IT [TM] and US [TM], Graviton Spin Reversal System [TM], Cat's Eye [TM], Webloom [TM], Anita [TM] - I forget the others just now.
