Ride my Seesaw

Old news but maybe it's portable. Using playground equipment to make power for night lighting.

If I had designed it, I would have made it short enough to ride on it. Like a See-Saw.

Just a thought:


Why use seesaws?  Take stationary bikes, tie them to generators, and use the overabundance of chunky school kids we supposedly have to ride them (as part of an organized excerise program) and use the power they generate to help run the schools!  Two problems solved!
