My my!! Aren't we a veritable Cornucopia of knowledge...? HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I do remember the "hill" of which you speak so fondly. Never did get the chance to see some poor schlep sliding down uncontrollably..

Guido, (the informative one.) I was mixing you up with when I left the ...party at DTE ...post.
He's Vegas you're Detroit. I gotta remember that.
           PEACE!

I'll say this; it was the BEST crowd that I saw all year!! The fans in Detroit came out in FULL force and they really supported Priest! It was a GREAT show and a GREAT crowd...*apart from the moron that we saw punching an old man because he was there with a younger lady!* Fortunately, THAT loser was escorted out by security! (Hope there was no "police brutality" involved afterwards..wink wink)

Honestly though, it was an incredible show. Whitesnake was GREAT, too. Seriously. I was impressed with Coverdale after all these years. He sure looked good. HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

		I was lucky to even find it. After driving around for an hour me and the wife stopped at a store. We saw these two girls who looked like they may be cool so we asked them if they knew where the place was. They asked us who we were going to see so we told them. It turns out they were Priest fans and literally forgot they were playing. Thanked us and lead us to the venue. We saw them in the lot and  talked a little. It was a cool experience.      Deep Freeze wrote:   Perhaps, when guido shows up, he can give us a more definitive description of a "knob"??  I mean, I was at the DTE in Detroit and I did not see anything that closely resembled a "handle" of any kind.......

Cygnus is a self sustained electrical generator. The system uses a high velocity wind cycle and generated current to conquer entropy. There are eleven major sections of Cygnus. They are as follows:

1. lithium ion DC battery
2. spin up DC electric motor and gear set
3. impeller advancer (a transonic jet fan with an electric motor on the opposite side spin up motor)
4. a 1: 10 ratio gear set
5. transonic dynamo (an expanded DC dynamo with a a jet fan at it's center)
6. prime impeller (a transonic jet fan attached to the core axle and the base of the 1:10 gear set)
7. final generator (AC or DC output also attached to the core axle)
8. wind return tubes (air velocity exits impeller advancer and re-enters at prime impeller)
9. air purge system (prevents ozone build up with in the system)
10. computer control and engine mapping (controls rpm emergency shut off ozone detection and battery charging functions)
11. battery charger

From source current the computer activates the DC spin up motor. This causes the impeller advancer to rotate, simultaneously the computer feeds current from the battery to the electrical motor on the impeller advancer..this rotates the rotor that is attached to the core axle the core axle is the input to the 1: 10 ratio gear set. the output of the 1: 10 gear set is the tube axle. The tube axle is the center of the transonic dynamo. When the system reaches a given rpm the computer switches off the current feed from the battery and activates the battery charger. The rotational sustainment current is then derived from the transonic dynamo and feeds the impeller advancer. The air velocity produced by the transonic dynamo impales the impeller advancer then enters the wind return tubes. The wind then re enters the system impaling the prime impeller. This reduces the torque required to sustain perpetual rotation and is why this system works. The core axle extends thru the prime impeller and attaches to the final generator. The system may require a percentile of current from the final generator to maintain the cycle under loading. If you draw the components from left to right the components would follow this order: 7,6,5,4,3,2,
As an estimate I expect this engine to produce internal wind speeds in excess of 300 mph and it could be constructed to exceed mach speeds.
