Sorry, that should read "float" instead of "flow".
I submitted the post on the non-electric solar tracker twice because someone
forgot the tilda the first time.
Oddly, none of this is seriously patentable, when you think about it.  Why? 
Any child can make one.  But still, the patent office being the Great Whore
that it is, some jerk would surely try to steal it and get a patent, if only
to stop it from seeing the light of day.  We had hoped to maybe sell models
filled with helium at the propsed Museum of Fluid Power, and that might never
come to fruition if the idea were stolen.  But when I posted a picure online
with a date, at the cost of instantly becoming public domain, I saw to it
that no one else can ever claim this idea as their own, for no cost
whatsoever.
