<Speaking of fiction, I like this quote from sci-fi writer Ray Bradbury: "I don't try to describe the future. I try to prevent it."> I don't describe, or prevent, the future. I invent it. Much more fun! Wait'll you see what I've got in store for the US$. CDMA was fun and is now burgeoning around the world. Globalstar is circling the world. I'm working on my GSRS [TM] but my prototype seems still to have a glitch [GSRS = graviton spin reversal system, for flying, launching satellites and stuff]. Imagine sitting in a 100 kg gadget which has its gravitons working in reverse so you just take off vertically, then turn on forward propulsion to orbit around to your destination. Some people would need a 200 kg model. But back to photovoltaics, BP Solar is right now selling lots of photovoltaics and the competitive position with oil continues to improve as oil price rises. There is plenty of silicon and lots of desert where there is lots of sun. A guy I know here is selling photovoltaics. Yes, they aren't cheap enough yet to shut down nuclear power plants, or even prevent them being built, but at $100 a barrel they'll be getting warm. I recall you or somebody arguing the old "they use more oil than they produce energy" argument. I don't think that's true. Mqurice

Raymundo, I do admire the quantity, and indeed, the quality of your posts. However I wish to lodge a complaint about your mercyless attack on Mq. Mq has an idea, maybe the strict science as we know it maybe not be yet economically viable, but it is maybe a worthy idea non the less. I like the BBR thread for it's broadmindedness.
