Gentlemen and Ladies:

What is with all the unsubscribes lately? Is is widespread
frustration
over not getting one of the very complex seismos that will be a major

challenge to get to work or is it this endless rambling on about
hydrocarbon powered generators. Seriously folks, this discussion has
really gotten old-when the power grid finally crashes in California,
do you truly think
you will be able to run your hydrocarbon-fueled generator
"indefinately".
The smart money will go with photovoltaic panels and a modern,
efficient inverter.
The power needs of a complex seismic station can easily be provided
by a battery
powered UPS for the AC stuff and most low voltage instrumentation
operated
directly from battery power. We are fortunate to have perhaps the
world expert on this topic,
Sean-Thomas Morrissey at SLU. If you don't have a clue where to
purchase good,
low cost solar panels, please email me.
The rationing of the USGS seismos was unpleasant for all-I had 2
units promised to
local schools here in the Denver area and those teachers are mighty
disappointed.
Fusion power is here and at a fairly safe distance
away(93,000,000+miles)  Avail
yourselves to the many sources of low-cost solar panels!

Vaya con Dios,
D. Latsch
