What's the recovery time if you never build it?

Tom Brosz — 4/12/2006 5:10:37 PM (archived)

      - Posting specific tips in this forum might be unwise. - podrock - 4/14/2006 12:59:05 AM
  - That is because you do not know the OTHER, superior near term options. (n/t) - David F Mayer - 4/11/2006 4:56:04 PM
    - LOL oh DO tell, reverend DFM - R.L. - 4/11/2006 5:18:22 PM
  - Why solar power cannot be THE answer... - R.L. - 4/11/2006 6:13:09 AM
    - Wrong. Especially about Hawaii. Sea Solar Power could provide 1000% of Hawii's needs. - David F Mayer - 4/11/2006 4:57:43 PM
      - Did you even know what the power consumption of hawaii is when you made that statement...? - R.L. - 4/11/2006 5:55:54 PM

        It will work almost anywhere in the 40,000,000 square kilometers - David F Mayer - 4/11/2006 7:36:04 PM
        
        If he is talking about the thermal gradient, then that is of NO use for the vast majority of the world.... - R.L. - 4/11/2006 6:00:29 PM
        
        Wrong. Sea Solar Power can produce synthetic fuels - David F Mayer - 4/11/2006 7:37:22 PM

        It simply does not seem viable for most of the world... - R.L. - 4/11/2006 7:36:51 PM
        
        Not when it can make synthetic fuels. (n/t) - David F Mayer - 4/11/2006 7:43:02 PM
        
        your claim was unfounded.... - R.L. - 4/11/2006 7:49:10 PM
      - :-) Yeah, we'll get right on that, David (n/t) - R.L. - 4/11/2006 5:24:48 PM
    - I agree - Tom Brosz - 4/11/2006 6:47:19 AM
