I don't follow goofy 2000 foot wells drilled by government grants by
scientists researchers without a plan.
I'm glad you do, and you have full confidence in them even in the face of articles which says they don't know what to do next.
Again, you're the guy saying the article says they don't have an idea of what to do next. Fact is there's a detailed plan for this project, and I can only guess it will prove so successful they'll move ahead to drill another couple of hundred such holes all over the fault zone.
This is, in my mind, a very good use of tax dollars. The comparable boreholes in California along the San Andreas were, in contrast, a total waste of money.
