VAWT? Bird's the word. Virtually free electricity, flap flap. With the power of the air gods and a flurry of beating wings, you too can ride into town on a stone block. Things are going to get a lot easier from now on. In fact, things are going to be just fine. Whilst pondering ancient forgotten technology, I got a flash of insight. Sacred to Horus, a flock of falcons perched atop a field of djed. With wings outstretched they transferred life-giving energy from the air through the anch, affixed as a bearing in the top. Ever-watchful sentries, they performed the duties of scare crows, keeping harmful birds and insects away from crops, while pumping water for irrigation and climate control. Because of the down-draft like ceiling fans in operation, they pulled down faster-moving air from above, enhancing their power and bringing a cool breeze to ground level, where it was greatly enjoyed. The pyramid created a natural up-draft to balance out the flow. When not in use, the wings would fold up for easy storage and transport. Now today we have generators so they can also produce electricity. Actually, I have no proof they were used like that at all. It might be my own original design. All the better!
