Why Im comparing it to total conversion of course

While I admit that the human body and any other higher life form for that matter is a marvel of engineering and nothing to sneeze at...its just not an efficient scheme..I don't remember the figures but the total amount of surface area on the planet needed to sustain a single person is quite large. Not being an engineering graduate I lack the proper mathh to explain what I actually can remember from lectures concerning this very topic. In the end we as living creatures use only a small portion of the food we eat..the rest is wasted...we take in more than we would if we were more efficient energy converters...


And as for being grumpy [img]smile.gif[/img] I didnt notice any grumpin in there [img]smile.gif[/img] could be that I am too tired and not quite as preceptive as I could be too [img]smile.gif[/img] (long night rebuilding my game computer [img]tongue.gif[/img] )
