The “shore people” don’t want to have us drill over the horizon out of site but will put junk all over the beach to get free power.

If we can’t use their oil they shouldn’t be able to use ours.

***Initial assessments indicate that the Anaconda would be rated at a power output of 1 megawatt (MW) and might be able to generate power at a cost of UK 6p [US $0.12] per kilowatt-hour (kWh) or less. Although around twice as much as the cost of electricity generated from traditional coal-fired power stations, this compares very favorably with generation costs for other leading wave energy concepts.***

Why bother if it’s that much more expensive?

The eco-twits will never allow it.

They will say that whales will try to mate with it and go extint, or it will harm the spotted farting seal or some such thing.

What would be the power out of an ordinary municipal power plant?
