This is a novel idea, but it will be a very, very, very, longtime before it could even be realized at a level that most here seem to think. The logistics of this happening on a large scale are phenomenal. We can't even get wi-fi, blutooth, cell phones, microwave ovens, etc. to work together properly, much less something with such litte output. By the time anything like that happens, freerepublic will be long forgotten.

Minor correction:

By the time anything like that happens, there will be no Free Republic.
