== Stone & veins ==

 (Veins) average at least 100 stones each, but veins with over 200 stones have been found, too. 
Hi. What makes you say that the average is ''over'' 100 stones? And are you sure your 200 stone vein was not two veins combined, as shown on the main [[vein]]s page?--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 15:35, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

:At first, i have never been saying, that the average is over 100 stones. But frankly, i don´t know, how you say that in English, but i translated, what i would say in German. And the 200 stones vein looks quite like one for me.[[User:Gnarker|Gnarker]] 19:18 CEST/17:18 UTC, 29 May 2009

::German/English can be close but not always. If you say "at least", that means the average is "that number ''or more''" - so, I'm asking if you've seen evidence that the average "could be more", which is what your statement implies.  If not, then it should be reverted to just "average about 100".
::As to the vein... if you say so. But your vein could be two veins that are end-to-end. 200 seems very, ''very'' large for one vein - but I'll admit I don't know what the limit is, or if there is one.--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 17:35, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

:Actually it´s around 220-230. But it´s regardless. To 'at least', i meant, in the most cases it´s 'that number or more'. And i lookedfor the meaning of average after i wrote that. [[User:Gnarker|Gnarker]] 19:40 CEST/17:40 UTC, 29 May 2009

== Power, water & transfer ==

 With enough water, power can be transferred trough screw pumps, said water moving through a channel
 and one or more water wheels at the destination less power-consuming over great distances, too. 

Hey - what exactly are you trying to say here? Because it's not really a sentence, and what is there can be read several different ways, and I didn't want to guess what your intent was. "Enough water" can mean flow or volume, and the 2nd part has no verb.  (I understand that English is not your 1st language - this is a complex sentence structure, idioms can be tricky (more "art" than formula), and I feel it's close - but the more complex, the more problems can appear.  I've seen native speakers who cannot express themselves as well as you, so no worries there - we'll get it.)--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 03:08, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
