Slashdot Mirror


Getting Serious About Fuel Cells

electroniceric writes "For those of us who moonlight as politics wonks as well as tech nerds, you may have noticed posts (1,2) in the Washington Monthly's blog pointing to interesting articles about the business community's new take on climate change, world oil supply predictions as well as a fascinating article about lower-cost ethanol together with a new fuel cell technology that can use impure hydrogen. Are we really about to turn a corner in global climate change response? Is this all vapor and breathless journalism about a world-saving new technology, or is it perhaps a brilliant investment strategy? Nobody knows (or claims to know) better than Slashdot..."

    It started when I was 12. My mom and dad hadn't been sleeping together for years. I don't know if I was consciously aware of my father's intentions but I knew I didn't like to be alone with him. He always was pinching me and touching me inappropriately. He'd draw attention to the fact that I was starting to develop and would tease me about it.

    This went on constantly. By the time I was 13 I was very mature physically. My dad's attentions seemed to intensify and seemed more sinister. He would grab me and tickle me. One time, as I was trying to get away from him, he grabbed me from behind and held me tight against him. His breath was hot in my ear as let out a long grunt, "Mmmmmmm, you are getting so sexy."

    As I broke away and said "Daddy, stop it!" I told myself he was only teasing me and really didn't mean anything by it.

    Every now and then, when my father would get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, I would hear my bedroom door creak open. I would steal a glance at my father looking in at me. Again, I just assured myself that he was just looking in on me because he was a concerned dad. In reality I knew it was more than that. This went on for some time but nothing else really happened.

    Then my world caved in.

    My grandmother became ill and my mother decided to go take care of her for a while. My ultimate of fears -- I was alone with my father, not just for a couple hours but for god only knows how long. The first couple days went by without much incident. Then on the third night I was clearing the kitchen table from dinner. My dad had been teasing me a bit already. When I leaned over the table to grab a plate, my dad came right up behind me. He pressed himself against me and reached around to tickle my belly. The tickle reflex was to make me bury my ass against his cock that much harder. "DADDDDY, stop it, that's gross!" He pretended not to know what I meant and released me.

    The next day was Saturday and I decided to try to steer clear of him. So I spent the day at my friend's house. When I came in that evening I knew he was home but I didn't know where he was. I walked into the empty livingroom to find the TV on. It took me a couple seconds to register what was on the screen. I had never seen porn before. In the film was a very young girl on all fours. Behind her, a heavy set, big bellied man (much like my dad) filling her pussy with what seemed an impossibly large cock. I stood there for a few seconds. I couldn't take my eyes off what I was seeing and hearing. The girl was half grunting and purring as this man slammed his cock into her. His belly bouncing in unison with her titties.

    The sound of my father coming back startled me to my senses. I quickly turned off the TV and ran to my room. I figured I'd pretend nothing happened. My dad called to my room, "Sarah...Is that you?"

    "Yeah Dad, I just got home." I waited for a few seconds with my heart jumping out of my chest. I waited for another response from my dad but none came. Phewwww... it was okay.

    I decided to lay low and stay in my room and read. My dad didn't bother me all evening. When it was time to turn in I couldn't sleep. I kept seeing that young girl being fucked by that huge man. She couldn't have been much older than me. After a few hours of sleeplessness, I heard some rumblings in the livingroom. My father was up! I heard him turn on the TV. I quietly walked to the livingroom door and peaked in. I could see that my dad had started the tape right where I turned it off. The girl was still getting fucked from behind. Then the man started talking low and dirty to her. "Oh yeah baby, that's my little girl... my tight little girl... oh yeah... squeeze your daddy's cock with your tight little pussy."

    Oh my god, my dad was watching an incest movie. I looked at him as he slipped his hand down his boxers. I knew what he was doing...he was stroking his cock. He was getting off on some guy fucking his "daughter." My eyes went back to the screen. I almost couldn't look awa

    I'm in a position where, in a few (5-10) years, I'll likely have access to a few million in cash assets.

    I'm in on the "ground floor" of a company that's tripled in size in the past year, and is set to do so many times over again. Dreams do, on occasion, come true. My wife is one, and my current job situation is another!

    I figure in 10-15 years, I'll cash out and do something else, and I recently decided that I'd take this capital and start or invest an alternative energy company.

    I'm young (32) so I have time to consider this.

    I figure the two biggest problems facing humanity are education and destruction of our ecosystem (the latter could likely be dealt with by dealing with the former)

    I'm right now hitting hard on the first, since my company provides workflow automation for alternative education enterprises. (Charter schools and Independent study programs in California) By an unofficial survey, the end result of my efforts is approximately 500 students getting an education with alternatives that would not exist without my (still small) company.

    My company's reach is also growing - within 2 years or so, we'll be providing workflow management to K-12 institutions from coast to coast.

    I'm damn proud of this!

    I'm not sure what I would want to invest in, would I want to start my own company? What? So far, it seems it might be best option to work towards biodesiel. There was a recennt article here on /. about an algae that grows to become 50% refinable biodeisel. That, so far, seems the most viable alternative.

    The key for me? Start/invest in an alternative energy company that is profitable. I honestly don't care if the idea is stolen by a competitor and my wealth amounts to squat. If I can help break the stanglehold of big oil, my life's work will be complete, and my life's meaning as a conttributing member of society will be complete.

    So... I have these assets accumulating rapidly - what next?
