Yes, but keep in mind that the volume of emails increases during the winter. 
  Or, so I'm told ... I can't hear them.

Nah,  keep looking at the specs and the thing only tuns 300 revs, with
some gearing you could put on an alternator and A/C.  I think that the
real problem is doing the machining to get a driveshaft and a starter,
gonna need a BG starter, maybe even on of those gear reduction
units...  ;-)
