True, it has the dogma of being "nuclear". That's a public perception
issue. But in case you haven't noticed, public perception is easily
manipulated -- that's how politicians get elected.

but that takes one thing MONEY

and nobody has figured how to make that much money in the short term


Assuming you are right, how much money would it take? How hard is it
to convince people that a source of nearly unlimited energy is right
around the technological corner? Who would shy away from opportunities
that, until now, were only dreams? Who really cares if a few die-hard
investors lose their fortunes because they refuse to accept change?

The fortunes that will be made, in all stages of the development of
fusion energy, are going to drop Bill Gates into the middle-class tax
bracket. All that will be required is a little motivation and a little
imagination. And if you don't have that then you aren't going to make
your fortune anyway.



It is still wishful thinking that the solution is right around the corner


We won't know until we try.


and the question is who will benifit from all this new wealth.


You're kidding, right? Who -won't- benefit?


You can rest
assured some form of enrgy will be their just in time to replace all the
oil.


Now -that- is wishful thinking. If, as you say, the solution -isn't-
just around the corner then the technology may not be there when it is
needed -- all the more reason to get started -now-!!!

Snow Warning!!!

We all benifit from current energy sources but some benifit a lot more than
others. Same will happen with any other new source and things will be set up
to make sure those who are reaping the rewards now will also benifit in the
future. Hell check your NG bill, you wil find you are paying for sunshine
in the winter.

Snow Warning!!!

We just got dumped with a butt-load last night, way more than the amount
that was forecast. It's still snowing. And it's all heading East.
And which part of the world would you be in?

You know, but unless you say, no one else will.




Frank's up in the North West. Finally saw

snow yesterday morn and it melted within a

couple of hours here on Long Island. I see

Bush is finally admitting to the existance of

global warming but said **** all to the Kyoto

agreement. Big business has him in their

pocket. When will business figure out they can
make money protecting the environment?


Did you catch the snow in Malibu? It wasn't just a dusting. I saw a clip
of a plow in the Malibu Hills with plenty of snow on the sides of the
street. Did you see Gore's film? His slideshow depicts several glaciers
and mountain ranges over the years with a photo taken every 10 or 20
years up to the present. Unless the photos are doctored, the evidence is
overwhelming and frightening.

Snow Warning!!!

At the risk of sounding like a Republican,

business follows the markets, and the current

markets are driven by the "buy-now-pay-later"

mentality of the current generation. So if you

want to change business priorities you need to
change consumer priorities. And cheap

gasoline has a higher priority than the

environment.

2.27 for reg. uneaded last week. As of this morning it's 2.13.
