Gotta love the snark there TB.
"low-loss power lines all over the U.S. that work better than the ones we use now. I bet power companies are whapping their foreheads right now wondering why they didn't think of that."
Ha ha ha ha.
Oh wait, it's called DC transmission, known for years to be less lossy than AC, the only reason we don't is that Edison won over Westinghouse and Tesla many moons ago, inertia set in and power sources were usually much closer to the consumer than they are now.
And it makes much more sense now that we are considering solar and wind farms far away from the grid.
Any other stupid snarks?
