This is where I think power generation is headed in the next 50 years. I think in many areas of the country you will no longer see large or mega-sized power generation plants and large high voltage wires. Instead, I think you will see smaller community, neighborhood, or even home-sized power plants.

That’s why the idea of building all these super high capacity power lines all through developed areas makes little sense given where the technology is clearly headed.

Americans love cars because they allow an individual to go wherever they want whenever they want. In other words "Freedom."

Liberals and Fascists love trains, because they go exactly where Liberals and Fascists want them to go, and they leave exactly when Liberals and Fascists want them to leave. In other words, "Total control."
