The total disregard for finding out energy and physics facts BEFORE totally running off the cliff, spending billions of dollars while they're at it, and NOT talking to the best Engineers as well as others who KNOW what a BTU is and how many BTU's are in a single unit of alternative energy to oil, is just staggering.
