When the guilty verdict comes, he'll tell the court, "I'll still cover your cities with liquid hot mag-mah."
The deep drilling underground caused a series of earthquakes in 2006, including one of 3.4 magnitude
Thanks hennie pennie. Alternative energy -- but alternative to what?

The whining is about a 3.4??? Speaking from Los Angeles, a 3.4 is barely noticeable. “Was that a truck rumbling by?”
But it does sound foolish, and I’m glad to have foolish science exposed, always. Esp before we have to try it and pay for it.

This is a witch hunt.
To move the earths crust one needs force on the order of magnitude generated by a nyclear explosion.
The Swiss greenies have lost it completely.
The oscillator diagram upthread is a great design for people like Larry Flint, who can know doubt inent a new seual deice from it, and may he suggest that the Swiss Greenies use it on each other.
Witch hunt in modern guise, its laughable. I feel for this geo-physicist.

People are so powerful they can distort the blackbody radiation that eminates from the earth. albert the goracle tells me so. Can they tax it? The shifting that is...

I have been consuming copious quantities of Boston Baked beans as vengeance. I want them to try and tax that.

Was about a year ago we were discussing geothermal, I think.

Can you even feel a 3.4 quake? Seems about what a truck driving past causes. Sorta. 8<)

A few thousand feet below. Even in the bottom of the diamond mines in Africa they can’t get to half of the boiling water temperatures.
At a many thousand dollars per hundred feet to drill - and a LOT of mess and impact around the drill site.
Plus lots of messy and deadly H2S gas and vented noxious odors and underground water full of BAD chemicals that go into the groundwater.
Nah. Don’t do it. Not for thermal.
