Good point ;-) But their argument that city scale utility plants cost less per
watt than rooftop residential installations makes sense, so it might be a
win-win case.

Even better, let's close the loop!
Instead of far away (e.g. Azores) seeding, we could use a second sea line
(underwater pipeline) to reject seeds, process residues with fertilizing value,
and any additional fertilizer, from the processing station (e.g. Bermuda, or a

Good point Richard, neither would I, nor would any robotic platform... Maybe we
could envisage sufficient flexibility in the mooring scheme (maybe some kind of
semi-dynamic mooring, static most of the time, dynamic=motorized when needed)
to move out of the way of the hurricane?

I wonder, is the floating type of sargassum (S.bacciferum OR natans) edible?
Other varieties definitely are, as a Google search on sargassum and edible
reveals.

In any case, 1/3 of the increase is still a big issue. Look again at

The government office concerned with such things has predicted that oil
prices will average about $101/bbl this coming year, if I recall correctly.
Commodities traders don't seem to agree. As I write this, May crude oil

That's up $4 in the last four
I'm confused. Perhaps someone on this list has the answer. Everyone who
has discussed the issues here seems to agree to the following:
1. Increase in energy cost will drive up food and other commodity
prices, which will reduce consumer spending.
2. Increased cost of personal transportation
Short answer: Because the stock market is not really going up ;-)
Yes, it may look at first glance like there have been some small increases in
the market, in terms of its listed valuation in $US ...
...but thanks to the continuation of the Bush record budget deficits, in terms
of real worth

Thanks Steve, this is a very nice summary. However, even I, a
nonbusiness student, can see the flaws when the logic is applied to the

There is also a contrarian philosophy that seems to work for some

The difficulty in understanding the stock market has it root in not
recognizing exactly what it is.
