Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Central Power Electric Cooperative is a North Dakota-based electrical generation and transmission cooperative based in Minot, North Dakota and was founded in 1949.  Central Power purchases power from Basin Electric Power Cooperative to serve its six-member rural electric cooperatives.  It also built the William J. Neal Station near Voltaire, ND in 1951 to meet its members' needs, with the power being delivered over the lines of the Otter Tail Power Company. Neal Station was sold to Basin when Central Power could become a member of Basin and was later modified to burn sunflower seed hulls in addition to lignite coal. The Neal Station was decommissioned in the early 2000s.
Central Power owns and operates 114 distribution substations, 22 high voltage transmission stations with voltages up to 230 kV, and about 1000 miles of 115 kV, 69 kV, 60 kV, and 43.8 kV
transmission line interconnected with the Western Area Power Administration, Basin Electric, Otter Tail Power, Montana-Dakota Utilities, and Xcel Energy systems.
