Off The Grid

Dr. James Salisbury, 1860s Civil War physician. Union soldiers were dying. Not from bullets. From dysentery, scurvy, and typhoid. The military diet: Hardtack, beans, coffee. Minimal meat due to cost. Salisbury observed: Soldiers with access to beef recovered faster from everything. Wounds healed quicker. Infections cleared. Energy returned. He started prescribing pure beef. Three times daily. Nothing else. The results were so dramatic that officers started requisitioning beef specifically for sick soldiers. Salisbury published his findings in 1888: "The Relation of Alimentation and Disease." His conclusion: Most chronic diseases stem from improper fermentation in the digestive system caused by eating starches and vegetables. His prescription: Minced beef, three times daily, with hot water. For weeks or months depending on severity. He documented successful treatment of: - Tuberculosis - Rheumatism - Mental disorders - Digestive diseases - Obesity - Gout His work was hugely influential. Salisbury steak was named after him. Originally it wasn't a convenience food. It was medicine. By 1920s: Pharmaceutical companies developing antibiotics and drugs for the same conditions. By 1950s: Salisbury's work is ignored, mocked, or forgotten. Today: "Salisbury steak" is a processed meat patty with gravy served in school cafeterias. The medical application has been completely erased from history. A physician who cured chronic diseases with beef was memory-holed because his cure couldn't be patented. The pharmaceutical industry didn't just compete with his methods. They erased them from medical history entirely.

Difficult to see in this picture but this shows one panel putting out 571w. A moment ago it had been 575. There are low rolling clouds and above whispy feathery clouds so we wont get all we can today. These are aptos 550w bifacial panels. Rated for 550w on the front and an additional 130w from the ambient light on back side. Theortical max is 680w but they are sold as 550.
