Twentieth Century Inventions A Forecast-George Sutherland
A

Where the tidal force elevates and depresses the seawater on a shore through a vertical distance of, say, 8 feet about once in every 12 hours, the waves of the ocean will perform the same work during moderate weather once in every 12 or 15 seconds.

seconds.It is true that the moon, in its attraction of the seawater, produces a vastly greater sum total of the effect than the wind does in raising the surface waves.
E
48:56EstherNARRATOR
But reckoning only that part of the ocean energy which might conceivably be made available for service, it is safe to calculate that the waves offer between two and three thousand times as much opportunity for the capture of natural power and its application to useful work as the tides could ever present.

And then you jump 30 years into the future for Ronan.
IS THE NYPD HIDING CRIME? NYC Council Grills Brass Over Crime Stats

That's my opinion because when cops respond to a mostly disturbed person's situations, sometimes they're violent, sometimes they're not.
E
39:36Eric DymHOST
They're always volatile in the sense that Seconds count.
E
39:40Eric DymHOST
Seconds could change anything.
E
39:42Eric DymHOST
And by then, it's too late for what could we have done for this person.
