we are going to have a gasification and biochar demo at the maker's faire
this weekend in the Bay Area, CA.  i  know some on this list are in the area
so come by if you like.

the makers faire is a rather impressive collection of diy creativity and
innovation.  a county fair of broad art and technology efforts.  is it
burning man or is it google recruiting?  hard to tell.  see your neighbor
and steve wozniak playing polo on segways.  it is a very geeky gathering.
see here: http://www.makerfaire.com/

we'll have the following at the faire:

- the GEK gasifier on site running a 6/1 Lister genset in dual fuel mode.
- the biochar beds from the mechabolic project from last summer.   early
birds will get the strawberries.
- bear kaufmann's still developing (and now working) 6 gas sensor kit.
- algae growing pools by aaron wolf baum who is doing the algae workshop at
all power labs starting next week.
