Erm, I think by that definition of insanity the world would have more insane

At least reason/evidence *seems* to dictate how a minority view reality.

The Department of Energy committed yesterday to spend $1 billion in
economic stimulus funds to restart plans for a controversial coal-
fired power plant that promises to capture 60 percent of its carbon
dioxide emissions and trap them underground.
I'm well aware of blacklight power and I unreservedly salute Mills and others
for their brave fight against prejudiced academic opponents. It's the sort of
technology that could save our civilization and change political dynamics for
the better.
That said, there are still hurdles. Can a
Unfortunately, here is were politics get into the act and this is why
politics need to be discussed if any sense is to be made of the energy

Hi, Robin,
Agreed that carbons can be used to make carbon compounds. But, as you point
out, there is non-trivial the matter of energy consumed in the process and,
I would add, the non-trivial matter of economics.
There is a reason we aren't making carbon-based materials out of CO2. And

Unfortunately, most of the CO2 producing plants are in the north.
One solution might be to pipeline CO2 south. Probably more sensible
to build new hybrid plants in the south

Thanks for taking the time to explain your situation more clearly. It
helps me understand where you are coming from.
It is not my place to explain Jed's actions. That's Jed's
responsibility, should he feel compelled to do so – perhaps when his
sentence is up.
I'll simply say that I think

If its actual politics that has to do with the technology and
development of the science, thats one thing.
The moment it extrapolates to world politics, ect, thats taking it a bit far.
