Aha! That would explain it! So what _really_ happens is you tap into
one country's 60 Hz line, convert it down to 50 Hz and use the extra 10
cycles to keep it all running and claim 100% efficiency (at 50 Hz)! No
wonder none of the "perpetual motion machines" have EVER worked in the US!
And since you guys don't have a fixed time-zone, no one can actually
prove exactly when (or where) all this "free energy" comes from!
Hmm. Perhaps I now know why Enron went bankrupt! ;)
Cheers,
Tony
