The link took me to the right place but the video screen would not populate or activate.  I must have a config error.  Wanna make Christmas even more of a disaster than it already is?  Hand out configs instead of christmas cake,   :D

Nope, didn`t do it.  I guess the setting on my firewall has my computer`s sphincter muscle set too tight.   :D

That appears to be a 10/1 engine. I've got some flywheels just like that. The GM-90 12/1 also uses that style of heavy flywheel. I put a set on my 6/1 GM-90, and it did help with generator duty. I've also got a heavy SOM style flywheel on my generator.

I found the story on the cnn main page and despite an hour playing with changes to my firewall`s sphincter controls, I could not get it to work. Odd since I have no problemo with you tube videos, etc.  As a last resort it occured tome to try a different browser so I loaded Windoz Internet Exploder instead of Firefox and voila, it worked!   I`ll have to sign up for an Indian cell phone.  Tarrifs are just 2 cents per minute.  8)
