I was at a talk recently by a guy who was promoting the use of tidal
energy.
(You know what you are going to get every day was his main theme"
At the end he invited questions, so I asked if the generation of
electricity by the use of tidal power would slow down the earth or moon.
He looked nonplussed.
I guess it might - comments welcomed.
