The best bit, though, is that the alternator is driven by a steam

On that definition, you could well be on the steam internet. Certainly
will be if your electricity comes from a nuclear power plant.


I take your point. But with that there is both physical separation between
the steam and the transmitter and an intermediate electrical form to the
