Bio-electricity

[Taem]

Hi,

It was a very interesting article with many valid points... for HUMANS, however there are many problems in there in regards to what I'm talking about, which I guess you just aren't understanding what I'm saying yet, so I'll try again by referencing that site you linked:

First, the equations that site gives are based on feeding an entire body with a complete cardo-vascular system, many organs, a way of heating itself via metabolism (probably the biggest energy loss there), a brain... you get the picture. I'm NOT talking about that, I'm talking about a GIANT MUSCLE that is fed air (imagine adding TURBO to your car engine), and circulates artificial fluid to feed it the nutrients it requires to keep doing what it's doing. Everyone who has tried their hand in working out knows that you only stop your reps to catch your breath and re-oxygenate your muscles, else they can't continue to perform, even though they still have the "capability" to do so. Oxygen is free, so it does not have to be factored into the equation other than keeping the giant muscle constantly moving without having to ever stop.

Second, that site is comparing human bio-energy to thermal energy, and while the concept of turning "something" into energy may be a constant, the way of achieving that is dissimilar in that we don't have any known way of extracting just the energy the human body can produce (i.e. moving a car up a hill and building a house in one day with just one bowl of oatmeal and a ham and cheese sandwich) in an efficient way other than thermal conversions, which are greatly lacking. There is no known way. I'm talking about a device, I don't know, maybe a mechanical metabolism, that ingests food and outputs productivity. I don't care about heating or cooling the body or powering a brain; think Cylon here, not thermal conversion rates!

I hope that makes it clearer?
