Back on topic.
With our luck, they'll harness this thing and energy will dirt cheap.
But... We'll still have single phase in our homes and thus no "heavy iron"
in the garage :-)

Back on the three phase issue, many shops use another
3phase induction motor method to create needed three phases.
Some don't even use a starting capacitor. They simple
spin the motor with a pull rope and switch on the current.
