The nice thing is that the process designed for a fossil fuel plant will work
identically for a biodiesel fuel plant, so the technology will be here to last.
About the swimming pool sized pond, one must keep in mind that energy
production will never exceed incident solar energy :)

Many coral reefs are in trouble. Many are bleaching and
then disintegrating. Fish hatchery like protected growth
pool would have reliably healthy living coral reefs and
attendant sea creatures that would supply a surplus of
larva to be deflected to seacrete production which I guess

Experts Can't Find Source Of Mysterious NYC Odor
(CBS/AP) JERSEY CITY Environmental officials in two states said they
have given up hope of finding the source of a mysterious odor that
swept across parts of New York City a week ago.

Maybe -- but IIRC the bleaching was finally tracked down to higher sea

But methane is odorless, and there isn't any permafrost around Jersey City.
True, however, what comes from permafrost is not pure methane and is
likely quite odiferous.

If it smelled like methyl mercaptan, it probably was
methyl mercaptan. It's added to natural gas to make
it stink, as a safety measure. Consequently, most
people associate the odor with a gas leak. The smell
of swamp gas from permafrost, while disagreeable, does
not resemble methyl mercaptan,
The lead story in today's Yomiuri newspaper (in Japanese) says that
Bush will announce new steps to address global warming in his State
of the Union speech on Jan. 23. He will emphasize ethanol and other
alternative fuels.

Well, at least there has been some anti-ethanol press
since part of the process of making ethanol is making corn syrup,
which converts a lot of the partially digested starches to sugars,
yes, actually, the whole process is likely more effecient to burn then

Well, besides the issues that have been shown with too much corn

I fail to see how it uses more fossil fuels than fuels it produces,
please share.
And it will also help

As I said, one third of the people who will do not get enough to eat.
Too much corn syrup would be far better than starvation.

That type of growing would be what i meant by more efficient. agreed.
a single multistory building with perfect climate and soil control
would be great. hell, run pigs and cattle on the top floor, and drop
fertilizer down.

Except that you cannot produce ethanol from that because the light
from indoor agriculture has to be artificial. There

Hi,

If the source is natural, it could be a precursor to major tectonic activity.
NYC hasn't had a major Earthquake for time I believe, so I think one is more or

In the far distant future -- thousands of years from now -- I expect
that something like replicators will exist, and they will make

He did, and it is a darned good idea. Actually, for the most part we

There is another way of making ethanol: from cellulose. There's a process
that uses an enzyme that converts the cellulose to sugar from which it is
converted to ethanol. The process is proven; ethanol is being produced
this way.
Nobody seems to have taken notice of this process, which was
