Couldn't resist shooting this literal translation of energy after seeing the hydroelectric power generation facility on Otter Creek at Huntington Falls in Weybridge VT.

Seen here are 2, 800kw turbines installed at this site in the early 1900's. I was told at or around 1910, though not verified. The turbine on the right buzzing away flawlessly while it's partner on the left undergoing maintenance. And hey, as you spin, I'm lifting a glass to renewable energy world wide. -- I got-a go charge up my camera battery.
