I am not familiar with this subject of methane hydrate on the edge of the continental shelves. However, I strongly suspect that long before such time as the oceans heat up enough for this stuff to vaporize in-situ the issue of human survival on this earth would be quite moot. Dare I say it, FWIW I am not yet convinced that 1) a long term global warming trend is taking place, nor 2) that human activity is significantly responsible for global warming (if it exists), nor 3) that human activity could diminish global warming (if it exists). Perhaps the motivation for the selling of global warming is based on something other than sound science. -- ...Warren Rekow Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html To unsubscribe, send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Your use of Yahoo!
