    57:40 This assumes that Charles Dickens wrote "A Christmas Carol." I've discovered, after 15 years of intensive independent research, that he was not the original author. Rather, I've concluded that it was written by an American couple named Mathew Franklin Whittier and Abby Poyen Whittier, in 1838-39. According to the scenario I've extrapolated from the evidence, Mathew would have handed the manuscript to Dickens in Boston, in Jan. 1842 (Dickens acknowledged a letter from him not long afterwards, while still on his tour). In the fall of 1843, Dickens was in serious financial trouble, and neede some quick cash. He conceived what he privately referred to as a "little scheme," which was to hurriedly secularize and sensational Mathew and Abby's spiritualist redemption novella, into a "Ghost Story of Christmas."

    The description of how a triple expansion engine works doesn't seem to be quite right. I'm aware that there are different types of triple expansion engine, but this one looks a lot like the Stuart Triple Expansion engine I've been building for the last couple of years, which is a receiver type. The condenser has nothing to do with the low or intermediate pressure cylinders. Partial condensation of steam seems to defeat the object of the engine's design. In the high pressure cylinder, heat in the steam is converted to work, it expands and its pressure drops. By means of a valve, steam exhausted from the high pressure cylinder is piped through to the intermediate cylinder valve chest. In the intermediate pressure cylinder, heat in the steam is converted to work, it expands and its pressure drops. By means of a valve, steam exhausted from the intermediate pressure cylinder is piped through to the low pressure cylinder valve chest. In the low pressure cylinder, heat in the steam is converted to work, it expands and its pressure drops. The exhaust from the low pressure cylinder may be piped to a condenser, in order to improve efficiency and to recover water. The relative volume and pressure of steam entering each cylinder is controlled by designing the volume of each cylinder, steam transfer pipe & steam chest (receiver) and by valve timing. I can't see a pipe taking steam from the high pressure cylinder to the condenser. But neither can I see a pipe from the high pressure exhaust to the intermediate cylinder steam chest which could be internal. Having built the Stuart Compound Launch engine which is a double rather than triple expansion engine, I can assure you that it doesn't need a condenser for it to run. If it did, it wouldn't be able to run on compressed air.

    I speculate that Butler was the collection man for Carney and the bankers. They wouldn't give it to Andrews. I suspect Butler brokered a loan deal that had the north and south co-sign for each others war loans. It gets paid no matter who wins. The bankers wanted brigadier general Butler over seeing things. That's how I see it.

    This is the only live footage I've found of Chris playing "I'll Take It All". For me, this little song articulates the despair and hopelessness of alcoholism better than any I've heard. In fact, it helped me get my mind around it and is an anthem of my recovery. The halo may never show, but it's there and more often than not, I know how my days unfold. Chris' music can do that.

    • @CharlesRiverMuseum
      @CharlesRiverMuseum Před 11 měsíci

      Alignment is a relative term here. They can shift a bit here and there, as long as they stay engaged. That is part of the beauty of the simplicity of the system. It comes down to friction (to drive) and tension (to stay engaged).

    • @ben91069
      @ben91069 Před 9 měsíci

      And the pulleys are not flat but convex shaped, so they automatically ride where there is least resistance.
