Interesting comments about Sydney water - I do remember the aquifers being discussed during the desalination "debate" and earlier kerfuffle regarding falling dam levels. On the bright side I guess it means we don't have to worry about a lack of water for city residents - just the price we get charged for it.

I like the giant capacitor at Botany story - anyone want to build a fake "free energy" power plant in the area ? There must be a way of getting rich quick in this phenomenon :-)

Seriously though - how much power could you generate with this ?

"Unlimited amps" is quite a lot - there must be some limit (otherwise couldn't you theoretically transform the voltage up to regular transmission levels ?).
