Dear Loyal Readers,
I have made a painful decision. Beginning in April ENERGIES will no
longer be a free publication. It's been 6 years now and income
possibilities from the newsletter and web site have been elusive... to

OK I surrender. There are a lot of issues that you brought up which are
worth discussing over coffee at length. We might even find that we agree on

Hey, I wrote a note on another discussion group asking about biodiesel in UK

Some good stuff, maybe not quite what you wanted, but apparent that aircraft
are showing very good increases in fuel efficiency over time, much better
than we are doing with cars. Also consider the amount of energy that goes
into creating
You have to look at air travel in terms of energy use per passenger
kilometer travelled. Then the plane does not look quite so bad. Yes, they
use tonnes of fuel on takeoff, but not a lot once cruising. I think jets are
in the same range as passenger cars - not great, but not a lot worse.
