Astounding story of William Kamkwamba, a boy in Malawi who built a windmill to harness the wind for electricity for his family based on diagrams in a book found in a community library. Even more astonishing than his building the windmill is the background struggle against drought and famine that inspired him to dream of more advancement for his family, his village, and Africa in general.
Sending this to ikkinlala. Very glad it has found another reader, since I disrupted its previous attempted release.
Mailed 7/30/11.

Gah! This showed up sometime between September 1st and now, and it should have been brought to me (I'm living closer to work for the fall) but somehow it wasn't so I got it when I went home for Thanksgiving. It looks like an interesting one. Thank you, ghir!
This was a really interesting story (and it made me want to build things).
I'm planning to wild release this.
