[QUOTE]Originally posted by First of Two: [QB] Okay, MIB. Say I have 400 Zorks of energy to use. Making one Gleeb of antimatter costs, say, 100 Zorks of power. So you have 4 Gleebs. The first law of thermodynamics, which applies to ALL energy-producing systems, states that you CANNOT get an energy-producing system to produce more, or even as much, as it takes to create it. This means at BEST, with near MIRACULOUS efficiency, one Gleeb can produce maybe 90 Zorks. And it's more likely, given how hard it is to make antimatter, that one Gleeb will produce something like 40 Zorks. so you're left with 4 Gleebs producing 40 Zorks each = 160 Zorks When you could have left things be and had 400 Zorks to use.
