  Hey Buddy, Can You Spare a Watt? Like carbon for money Radio Far Side OK, I think I’ve figured at least part of the global hide-the-sausage game we are all unwillingly or unwittingly playing. Care to take a little trip to Low-Earth Orbit (LEO)? For this trip, I’ve adjusted the orbit to give us a bit higher apogee, so we can appreciate a little more of the Big Picture than usual.
