Howdy Jones, Halophyte production is beginning to make sense. Combined with developments in extremely fast growth algea production, we may have a serious source of raw materials for bio-fuels. Well... err.. maybe if NASA don't take over. There is some serious private capital plus money coming from the State of Texas for push behind algea and Halophyte production plus a number of small startup diesel biofuel plants. One of the concerns along the Texas coast is the huge fresh water acquifers are being pumped at a rate that salt water intrusion is beginning migrate underground from the shoreline. A salt loving crop would help. Jose' Cuervo bio-diesel... get more stroke outa ya piston. Richard
