Hi Terry et al!

What an interesting idea!! Using the natural oscillation of the
universe in the form of Casimir plates being pushed together and
apart....but I don't know that the frequency would be high enough to
anything useful. Quite an interesting idea though.

I know some claim to tap the 'Van Allen Belts' but I don't know how
they could ascertain the resonant frequency of the belts....I think we
are close to some really cool things about to pop...but haven't we all
heard that one before...<g>...hope springs eternal...at least to date,
there aren't any cons involved, just some wild claims and conjectures...
