Bob;

As I have said - the technology does not exist!

Saying is does not exist isn't the same as saying it can't exist.

Interesting article in the weeks NewScientist that talks of where venture capitalist money is going and why. Tons going into solar as the article points out to create more availiable energy because solar only takes a couple of years to develop whereas new nuclear plants can take a dozen years to come on line. The money that made these guys rich as they invested in the internet - such as google, amazon and yahoo - is now all going into new green technology. Follow the money.

Bob -

What the article shows is that the necessary research is losing its funding, even though it is making progress.

I had a crazy idea. All the soda manufacturers use tons of CO2 annually. Why not sell the CO2 from coal plants to them? Right now, it's being manufactured for them in other ways.
