Cool Website

OK, this isn't strictly sailing related but this is a really cool website that shows different types of animated engines. It has diesel, 2 stroke, and 4stroke as well of lots of others.

I've always wondered about the stirling engine although it seems it can't really develop power enough to be useful.

There was a naphtha engine in a launch at the Philadelphia seaport museum that had my interest, even though I never saw it in operation.. the thought of it in operation does produce some fearful thoughts though.
