My Problem (was Re: Clem as a Rotary Heat Pump)

The one thing that really ticks me off is when I think of really good ideas,
they have already been thought of, or in the process. A really good example
(even though most people probably won't believe me), is that high-pressure
nozzle Jerry posted about. I had thought of this a few years ago as a really
efficient method of propulsion for a submarine. Inject a little bit of
water, and get a lot of flow out the ass end of the thing.
Another instance, I took four diodes and fashioned them together so that
no matter which way the two power leads are hooked up at the input, the
voltage coming out is of the same polarity. I had designed this as an
idiotproof way to wire up car stereos and such.
There is a whole list of things which I have thought of, and already
exist, or are already conceptualized.

Thanks,

BillP
