Is this the future?

Came across this the other day, while we are worrying about a silly artwork on top of the Coppice, it is good to reflect that things could be a whole lot worse...

Re: Is this the future?

Hmmm, do you reckon we would have room for one of those things on the Coppice? Not only would it be a useful source of energy, but the scientific boffin community would flock for miles to see it. I'm going to e mail the link to PB for his opinion. He knows a tourist opportunity when he sees one...
Let's face it, there is enough s**t in Hyndburn to power the thing, I'm sure that our glorious leader could keep it running for at least a year all by himself.

Tell him that if fitted with a platform it would be superb for bungy jumping, hang gliding, mountaineering practice, viewing platform, gallows, etc. etc..........

Hehehehe. You would also get a better view of Accy due to being higher up.. Gayle Knight should be pleased then.
