If the collectors are cooled, there _has to be_ a source of energy
that is
being used. If not, then we've just found an exception to the 2nd
law of
thermodynamics.
Why doesn't the wind turbine count as a source of energy? It's
pretty obvious that when he said "none" he meant no _external_
source of energy.
Maybe I forgot to take into account the brainwashing that happened
when he entered the oil industry, and he can't see the words 'wind"
and "turbine" if they're adjacent to each other. Dan, is this words,
or a blank space: "WIND TURBINE" ? How about this? "RENEWABLE ENERGY"?
Uh-oh. There's an oil truck pulling up outside. They're coming to the
door. Aaaaa...
