Talk:Penstock's Wicket/@comment-24400544-20140417065012

Fun trivia: I was reading about hydroelectric dams on Wikipedia and it turns out that a penstock is the pipe that supplies water to the turbine (or a water-wheel in pre-electric watermills)...and the flow is regulated by a wicket gate. FL has the most amazingly random and obscure references. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penstock
