Stephen -
I'm not ignoring .4% per year. I actually nailed it from memory, but didn't
bother spelling it all out because I was dismissing the tangential subject
of CO2 volume in general which has already been considered. It's just
another diversion you presented and is irrelevant to the point
Vorts,
Diode arrays plausibly rectify and aggregate Johnson noise
to absorb heat directly from surrounding air or water
(that can not be made more uniform in temperature by
further stirring) while releasing equivalent electrical
power.
The concept requires nanometer scale diodes fabricated
I wonder if they use dynamic and/or frictional brakes? Regardless,
here's what happens when the brakes fail:

Apparently, the destroyed mill was either new or undergoing

Just to try to level the field wherein all the argument takes place over

Richard Lindzen is probably the most respected of the atmospheric scientists
who are sceptical about catastrophic climate change. He has been the AGW
sceptical scientist-of-choice on many TV programmes and writes
One ought to be able to hold in one's head simultaneously the two facts

That was my point. The fact that it was Dali just brings it home, because Dali

Speculating on what these quick charge devices might be one cannot
help but consider ultracapacitors. Today's cost for UCs make them
prohibitive for automotive applications (until EEStor proves me
wrong); however, they might make an excellent fixed storage device for
recharging stations.

There is tons of evidence for CO2 as a (but not the only) cause for

My guess -- and it is nothing more than a guess -- is that a significant
fraction of the collapse energy *did* turn into heat, and that, in fact,
the amount of heat generated was large enough to melt a significant
