Up here in British Columbia we have lots of water, which can be used to make energy, so it's a match made in Heaven. I need a few engineers (EXPERIENCED ones only) to design my dam. It will be easy to design because I envision it to be exactly like Hoover Dam, only much bigger. I will also need an electrician to design the hydro-electric trubines and the interface to the North American power grid. I will need a few dozen workmen with strong backs (no experience required!) to build the actual dam. The electrician will also be responsible for hooking up the turbines and so on. I don't have any funding at this time, but such a dam, I'm sure you'll agree, will be very profitable - and you could earn a share! Let me know what you can contribute to the project - please include references - and I'll let you know your application is successful. Also, if you have any unused turbine engines sitting around in your garage, or access to large volumes of concrete, please email me.

MAybe that will help? Oh, I also went to niagara falls once, so I know all about water falling from heights. Let me know if I can help. Vesty.

I've got ten sheets of white paper and a pencil, and I have this great idea for a rocket that will carry an entire team of scientists. It will be exactly like the Apollo V, only much bigger and better. I've been known to launch firework on New Year's Eve so I'm quite experienced in this area! Now I only need some financial backing, a few rocket scientists to sort out the gruntwork, and a minor equatorial country as a suitable launching place. My proposition for sharing the expected profits is 50:50 for me (since I came up with the idea which is the most valuable part of any project!) vs the rest of the team. Can you believe nodobdy applied yet? People are so lazy these days! -- http://www.kynosarges.de
