A new way of generating electricity without polluting

Hi,
My name is Claudio Bianco. I am an inventor, and have just completed my last work called "Continual Wind-Up", with which I take advantage of water oscillations to wind up a cord, and thus generate electricity.
I believe to have opened a new research field for renewable energy, but since I am the father of this invention, my opinion does not matter.
I chose to use internet to make the invention known and I would appreciate your opinion.I would therefore like to invite you to discover a new way of generating electricity without polluting on www.cuerdacontinua.com

Do you happen to know anybody in the San Diego Co. or Orange Co. area that has made one of these?

yours truly,

Matthew R. Marler, Ph.D.
