[QUOTE]Originally posted by Reverend: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Daniel Butler: [qb] Blah. Dudes. People have been saying "X will get us off oil in Y years" for like...ever. Nothing like this will take off in our lifetimes...cuz oil is *profitable*. Why is that so hard to understand :-/ [/qb][/QUOTE]Well oil won't be profitable forever and from what I gather, at the rate we're going I wouldn't be surprised if most of us live to see it run out entierly. We're going to have to find something that works pretty soon if we intend civilisation to see the 22nd century. Until we crack fusion reactors, developing smaller, more efficient and safer fission reactors is the best place to focus our efforts. As it stands, solar, wind and wave power can only supplement demand, not meet it. Even that is occasionally hampered by a particular breed of moron that thinks wind turbines are a bad idea because they're an eyesore...No joke. I really despair for the species sometimes.
