Most processes cause wastage of energy in some form or another. Power stations lose energy in heat, not all the energy goes into electricity ( I think most have an efficiency ~50%). My point is that it is acceptable to use it even if it causes some waste of energy, simply because of it's convenience. It's done all the time.<P>------------------<BR>"Philosophy is written in this grand book - I mean universe-which stands continuously<BR>open to our gaze, but which cannot be understood unless one first learns to <BR>comprehend the language in which it is written.
