Question:
How might the power of anger be harnessed to energise one's apparatus?

It has been brought to my attention by weekly audience with the Prime Minister that there is considerable unrest amongst the peasantry.

It seems that in some quarters there is anger due to lack of money. The peasantry do not have my permission to be angry, therefore I would like to take their anger away and harness it to power my electronic spanking machine.

This fine apparatus is used to punish my servants whenever a minor indiscretion is committed.

How might I extract this anger from the ghastly underclasses?

Anger causes reddening of the face due to an increase in body temperature. So, the peasant must be angered, giving his wife a damned good rogering should do the trick admirably. To harness this heat, the victim...erm...peasant must be dunked into a tub of water. The subsequent rise in the calorific value of the said water will produce sufficient steam to power your contraption, er.. I may call it a contraption may I ? Given sufficient volunteers it will produce the amount of steam required to give a continuous, steady thrashing. Your contraption DeCat is a sure fire winner, take a star.

HAHAHA OMG. I wish I had some time to move this along rather creatively like you all have. I can only assume that the best way to stop the anger is to put them on a isolated island for them to drive themselves to whatever they would want to morph into under sufficient supervision. They will be put to hard work and when anger is subdued, return to only serve again for the lords, if not realized enough to serve thyself through de-draping the veil of anger.

I am most concerned to hear that your apparatus requires energising, dear Citizen. 'Generic Algorithms for Synthesising Multisorted Generalisations of Graphs ' is on at Imperial College tonight and sounds right up your street. Those boffins are total experts at the old handball game and should be able to advise you on a suitable two-stroke capacitor sufficient to enable you to blow your top. You could always offer your servants as subjects for experimentation.

Wouldn't alternative energy sources or environment be a better section for the question? I do believe that there should be some way to harness the power; we can harnass other alternative power sources so why not prayer power.... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Spanking your staff? God's toenails man - no wonder the poor blighters are restless, you're confusing them with your leniency. Introducing such liberal ways into your household is just asking for trouble.



Go back to the tried and tested ways - a hand chopped off here for idleness, an eye gouged out there for lateness. I have always been firm but fair with my staff and those that still have their tongues would doubtless thank me for it.

I don't know how you can harness the energy of the peasants, but when you find out will you use the spanking machine on me please.. I've been rather a naughty girl
