New York Subway Vent AnimalsPosted: 7 months ago by pocksucket Vents in New York sidewalks blow gusts of air up to street level each time a subway train goes past. So if you attached an inflatable animal to the vent it would stand up with each gust. Watch it - it will make sense.

Why can't NYC and other places with this type of subway exhaust use it? Put up some vertical, internal bladed windmills and harvest all that free energy? At least power a few street lights!

I don't know...that's a lot of windmills...It'd probably cost more to maintain them then use them. Score: [-] 37 [+]. <1>
