[quote:GernBlandston 64784659:MV8zMDMyODM3XzU2MTY1OTAxX0QyQkJGNTA4] I have been reading some of your posts and have a question for you about another one, not this one. Just don't know how to directly communicate with you is all. Your comment to another post: Re: The Lutec 1000 is the first free energy machine to be developed to commercial stage anywhere in the world. They've been hiding technologies like this for decades. I know of a technology that is self-contained, produces heat perpetually, and needs very little maintenance to oversee it that's been heating an entire medical facility since around 2008. It was made known to me by the son-in-law of the inventor of the technology. When he told me the facility a prototype was being used at, I surreptitiously called the maintenance department of the facility and the head of maintenance verified it's in use and works as suggested. My question is if you are willing to share more about this technology, the inventor, the facility manager, anything related? Thanks! BTW..I like how you end each of your posts with God [/quote]

I've been seeing these flimsy looking overpasses getting put together. Back in the day, they used to pour out huge, solid slabs of concrete footings and wide, solid concrete columns to support the overpasses, but not so anymore.
I'm seeing this design which uses concrete "tiles" for lack of a better term. These tiles are approximately 5 inches thick and approximately 8x12 feet in size.
What they're doing is piling up dirt and using the tiles to surround the dirt on all sides. It kinda looks like the tiles may lock together at each edge that touches.
It does not look like a design that would have long life, but it sure looks like it saves money.
