How about this as a business idea:
A gym where all the machines contain some sort of dynamo device that turn all of the energy expended on to them into stored electricity that the gym can store and use to power and light the building. As an extra incentive to users, each watt of electricity generated could be given a montary value that can contribute to paying the users memebership for the gym -- the more you excercise the less fess you pay in a month because you end up earning more for the gym in terms of generated electricity.
Hmmm...just need a building...some machines...some way of storing electricity ...and a huge cash input. Any VCs out there fancy giving this a shot?

That reminds me of an idea I had to offer unemployed people the opportunity to generate electricity by running on huge hamster wheels attached to dynamos, earning 10p per KwH on top of any benefits they're receiving. They get extra money, they get something to spend their time doing and keep fit, and the country gets a lessening of the obesity problem, lessening strain on the NHS, along with a supply of clean, sustainable energy from its largest natural, renewable resource. I am not a fascist.
