The more the human race talks about these pipe dreams the more money it costs the tax payers, and I think it's a waist of time and money because the oil companies have so much money that no matter what the laymen and their lawyers think or try to do big oil will pass around enough money to the people that can be bought off to wipe out any means to use anything but oil to transport the peoples of the world No matter what anyone thinks or says. But if you can show us something that will allow us to propell our bodys around this planet at close to nothing faster and cheaper than oil then You will be able to rule the world because you will be rich beyond your wildest dreams, that is after the oil companies buy your divice and hide it away so that they can keep selling the rest of the world their oil, and it won't be the first time or the last that is if they don't just hide you away in some small bag at the bottom of the sea.
No Mallis was intended in this post just a truth that I can not prove and still find myself able to take a breath tomarrow.

I think I agree with most everything said in this post. But I also think the "it won't change anything anyway" attitude, no matter how true, only goes to make all discussions on any topic moot. Whether it be in Congress, in protests, in scientific studies, or just here on Ironworks, the discussions and studies into this issue are important in and of themselves, lest nothing will ever change. Pointing out the huge powerful economic interests with big lobbying $$$ and Congressmen, policemen, mayors, and/or prosecutors in their pockets will likely beat David does not mean the evil of Goliath should not be addressed.
Besides, don't the "David's" of the world beat the "Goliaths" some small percentage of the time?
