I suggest the discussion of how to farm with what tools and what power
source, be moved to alt.agriculture.

There is currently a thread running there about powering a tractor with an
extension cord.

Please don't send a copy to s.e.b.

The thread on alt.agriculture is interesting, but it fizzled out 2 months
ago in May. Much of the discussion was about inventions and patents, and
various erroneous technical comments, and a few solid ideas. This whole
electric tractor discussion has moved beyond the basics level, and a
practical design will involve input from electronic (or electrical) design
engineers, as well as mechanical engineers and the farmers who will
actually use the contraptions that we may come up with.
