Where'd That Guy Go?
Transmitting Power Over at my home base, Wired.com, I wrote a short piece on the importance of the transmission of electricity. It was pegged to the anniversary of the completion of the first long-distance power line, which ran the 14 miles from Willamette Falls to Portland, Oregon. That is not to say that power transmission was not already [...]..

Updates and Milestones It’s been a while, so I wanted to give everyone a quick update on the book progress and what I’ve been up to. As you probably know, I sent a draft of my book to my publisher, Da Capo Books, in April. They accepted it for publication. It’ll be out in early 2011, if all goes [...]..

Where’d That Guy Go? Well, friends, I sent in a draft of my book to my editor last Friday, the 9th, and I’m taking a week off. In the meantime, you can make do with this wonderful cover. ..

The First Windmill Test Apparatus in America This here is Thomas O. Perry’s windmill testing apparatus from 1882. A steam engine hooked up to all that stuff on the top drove the windmill being tested around in a circle at a constant speed. Dozens of windmills got hooked up to this thing and their power output recorded. From the results, Perry optimized [...]..

Notes on Editing the Book I finished my first read of my first real draft. It felt great. I celebrated with Posole and a Belgian beer. These posts may be boring, but I want to document a little bit of the process. (If not for you, then for me.) The easy part was: I started at the beginning of the draft [...]..

This Is the Book Well, I’ve gotten this far. This is the 380-page rough draft of the book. My current forecast is that it will balloon to about 420 pages before losing about 75 of those to get down to its playing weight. I’m about halfway through the first edit and I’ve already reorganized the whole thing (again). The [...]..

Environmentalism is… Whoo boy. Environmentalists face an uphill battle in the wilds of the Internet. Environmentalism is no longer regarded as a dominant plank for both political parties in improving American quality of life. Has environmental protection been too successful Has it worked its way out of a job ..

Home Stretch Somehow, I’ve made it to the very last chapter or two in the book. It’s terrifying and kind of wonderful. I’m hoping to complete a draft by the end of the weekend. ..

The DOCUMERICA Photos of the 1970s Back in the early days of the EPA, the agency hired about 100 photographers to go take pictures of the nation’s environment. Now, those 15,000 photographs are finally making their way out of the National Archives’ wonky databases and onto the very-slick Flickr Commons. I’ll have a lot more of these photos going up over the [...]..

The Underground Infrastructure of Wind Power Wind comes and wind goes. It’s feral power, part of a much larger natural system that humans are just figuring out how to domesticate. Coal, on the other hand, is a burnable rock. Like most rocks, these “solidified sunbeams” just sit there until you do something with them. They are their own storage. Gregor Macdonald has [...]..
