[Hallicrafters] Piezo effects.. an idea

[TERRY]

   Thanks for repeating that quote, William...(italics are mine)...


    "... High-K ceramic capacitors can show significant piezoelectric effects; if 
  you tap them they will produce a voltage spike.  This is caused by the 
    barium titanate, the main material in high K ceramics.  The higher the K, 
    the stronger this affect (sic)...."

    So... if we could attach hundreds of them to the faces and arms and hands of our beloved (?) politicians...
just THINK of how much juice we could generate by merely putting their tirades, speeches and hand-gestures
to work FOR us....all those little voltage spikes might add up to something!  "Now, that would be," he said, grinning,
"real political power!"

    Happy New Year!
