Farewell to Arms I read your article about Brett Favre's retirement from football, then reread it - and read it one more time [March 17]. Green Bay Packers backers here in Wisconsin have had a very sad week. We are all happy for Favre and wish him well, but we wonder what in the world we will do without him.

That's why he broke so many NFL records this past season. I watched with tears as he said his emotional farewell to football, and I don't consider myself...
...energy is the ocean's tides. Off the coast of New England, tides rise and fall 8 ft. to 12 ft. twice a day. How about generating electricity from floating pistons on the ocean? Unlike dams, floating pistons would be friendly to marine life; they would not silt up bays and would be far less expensive to construct. Just north of Maine, in the Bay of Fundy, a moon tide can be 50 ft. If intermittent vibrations on a bridge are being used to generate 20 microwatts to 120 microwatts, why not think bigger...
