Nick, I'm way over my head on this one but Mark or another engineering type can refine this. How about if we place magnets on the toast-cat couple, and let them hover/rotate in a wire coil tube. Doesn't the rotating magnetic field generate elctricity? Now we can power the electric trolling motor, cell phone, coffee pot (or espresso machine for us norwesters) and electric razor!! Of course Mark will need to really enlarge the plans with the Xerox to accomodate the increased weight and displacement. While were at it how about a small refrigerator. By gosh we've got a galley now!!
