Lily Darling Amossk Yea, not only is it green but it would be very cheep. And to boot it would be pretty awesome XD And yea, people don't see the potential in clockworks and steam. people are to lazy to get off their arses and turn a handle now and then. They'd rather pollute and spend money needlessly. And for those of us with family members who ask us to grab the remote control for the telly when it's sitting a few inches away from them, we'll be the ones turning the crank all the time. XD
Re: clock sounds~ they put me to sleep too. It is very soothing. biggrin
I'd much rather hear the sound of ticking clocks than my neighbours talking or people partying outside late at night.
Zenath has a good point about water-powered things during a drought. I live in a desert, so we are always having water restrictions and watching our usage, particularly during fire-danger 'season', as we'll need that to put out any sudden fires. So, although it's extra physical work, clockwork power would come in handy in places where water is scarce. And we have found a flaw. My dad calls me like I'm Jesus enough already -.Q If something like that existed I'd never get anything done at home.

SPI -14 It's been my dream to build a town in the desert, a recreation of one, at least, with my personal observatory/fortress dominating the center... And have an irrigation canal to supply water... although I'm afraid I'd be too lonely... But it would be glorious, with gears lining the main roads... ah... I'm in college to be a cop. o.o I can be town guard!

i know how to use a handful of things; Autodesk 3DStudioMAX, Autodesk Maya, Catia V.4, Blender.
i use 3DSMAX best though, we are working with it at college, we have to take photos of a room in college and then recreate it in a style of our choice, obviously, mine was steampunk, i will upload some photos when it's finished (deadline is next week, so yeah, should get some good photos up by then)

But then you'd be subject to the torment of being killed over and over and always being revived in the same spot o-o or maybe I just play to many videogames XD

fire - link well, im a 3d designer and have a reasonably wide knowledge of computers, so if you ever decided to actually make this town, give me a shout! you know what you should do? Make a 3d simulation of the town XD it would be EPIC if you could make it kind of like a 3d chat. like make avitars of each of us and let us wander around and use some simple chat program XD but that would be too good to be true
