Every April 1, Woodworker's Journal puts out a e-zine that is hilarious. 
Check out one of the articles on woodturning.

Use Manual Woodturning to Reduce Your Electric Bill
For those that see a noticeable uptick in their electricity bill every 
time they fire up their lathe, I have the solution for you: manual 
woodturning.

By having someone turn the handwheel, you'll be able to run your lathe 
for hours on end without a single watt of electricity!  This is 
especially important for environmentally-conscious woodturners always 
looking for new and better ways to go green.

Great for lower-speed tasks such as roughing and sanding, you can 
achieve extra RPMs by adding coffee, punk rock music or whatever your 
favorite stimulant might be.

This is also the perfect way to introduce loved ones to your favorite 
hobby.  After an hour or two manning the headstock, they'll jump at the 
chance to switch spots and take a "turn" with some chisels.

Enjoy.  Duane
