While Gas-to-Liquid is not a hoax, it is a tough economic hurdle in the US.

This is supposedly a different "new" GTL process. I don't think the $25-barrel gasoline claim sounds like an economic hurdle.

According to my thumbnail calculations, that's a wholesale price of 59 cents.

I don't think their cost estimations from the small scale pilot project turned out to be correct when enlarged to commercial production sizes.

Do you honestly believe that is a true number and five years later, no company in the entire world has bought the license and started building a plant? Really?

Sorry, make that 11 years.
