Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************

Shawn Frayne, a 28 year old inventor from Mountain View, California  
has come up up with a low-cost wind-powered generator that does not  
use turbines, but instead a vibrating belt.

He was inspired by the infamous collapse of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge!

Follow this link: <http://blog.orselli.net/2008/02/windbelts-great- 
energy-exhibit-idea.html> for more information, videos, and a set of  
simple instructions to create your own "Windbelt" suitable for  
exhibit use.

Have fun!
