for Phyllis and Grant MacLaren Geothermal (Aquathermal?) Heating and Cooling considered at 51 Fairview. The lake water would provide a perfect thermal mass for heat and heat transfer. And geothermal loops are being placed in many farm ponds throughout the midwest. Why not Lake Springfield? The last of 5 images below show a "slinky loop" for pond use. 
At our home in Byrnes Mill, heat is into and out of three 135' wells in the front yard: Grant has discussed the idea of using the lake water as a heat source/sink for the new house with a number of Springfield people.
