You mean, we’re running low on hurricanes? Set up a committee immediately! Must be plenty of research grants in that observation. And we wouldn’t want to run out of the ornery beasts, would we?

Mark,

Indeed it is. Extracts need to be posted here.

You want deep flyed chips.

Global warming time-out? I didn't realise jets could use biofuel. I wonder if it makes the plane smell like chips!

Mark — so far there is no alternative for air transport besides liquid fuels. If oil prices start to go up then road transport may switch to electric cars… but the only current alternative for planes is biofuels.

The difficulty for Better Place will be manufacturer buy in and critical mass. Not insurmountable challenges but the economics of new technologies such as plug-in hybrids may knock them out of the game. I regard their approach as very high risk.

I hope the R&D for thorium in India goes well, for all our sakes!

Why air transport?
