  1. Re:Very, Very Large on Very Large Array Gets Expanded Capability · · Score: 3, Insightful

    No, the size/collecting area doesn't increase. Only receivers, electronics and data processing are refurbished. So it stays Very Large.

  2. Re:priority: cheap gas? independence? environment? on N.Y. Governor Pushing for Alternate Fuels · · Score: 1

    This hits the nail on its head. Exactly the steps we need to take in order to have a future on this planet.

  3. Re:More options for NY on N.Y. Governor Pushing for Alternate Fuels · · Score: 1

    Ok let's start our analysis.

    1. We have enough oil
    2. If we burn all oil we have, we will end up with an unhabitable planet
    3. More nuclear power is wrong, but shutting down old inefficient nuclear power plants and replace those with latest state of the art nuclear reactors with higher efficiency levels.
    4. The degree of efficiency for producing electrical power is less than 30% compared to the primary energy carrier, thats a fact
    5. Gas is no choice in reducing CO2 concentration in our atmosphere - we need to act fast in that matter
    6. Throw less money out of the window by better heat insulation of our homes, maybe rethink our lifestyle
    7. We need to support new ideas of generating energy, only wind, water and solar won't work - whats with osmosis, bio mass, ...
    8. Strongly support Fusion research and I am not talking about Inertial Confinement Fusion, I am talking about Fusion for energy purposes and not for weapons research

    Thats what needs to be done!

    Just my 50cents to this

    Be careful to use infinite, it is just a matter of perspective. But I recommend everybody who criticizes this article should read its 30 pages and maybe also the stuff from Heim. Then we can come back and discuss about its flaws.

    I think we shouldn't close our minds towards new ideas, even if they sound crazy. The more dangerous it is to judge about things we didn't check thoroughly. Maybe we have been wrong all the time and if not we found another proof to support our current theories.
