Malawi windmill boy with big fans

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/8257153.stm

Story of a boy in Africa, who built his own windmill... sounds like it'll be a book well worth reading when it's released.

Of course if that had happened here, the council would have made him tear it down 'cos it was unsafe, and didn't have planning approval

glorious stuff. It's said that 'necessity is the mother of invention'....really must be to invent this with so little support, information or materials.

This is amazing!  I ordered it on Amazon this morning.  The paperback is not out yet, but should come soon.

I can't help buying books and never want to give them away - am thinking about insulating our plasterboard walls by fixing paperbacks to them, then I can just lift one off and read it when I want!  How green is that?!
