"Chu Still Have No Clue"

[Falcon4.0]

"When you look at the energy contained in a tank of gasoline and compare it to the tons of batteries that would be required to match its energy content an environmental radical should get quite depressed. The same energy density dictates that huge swaths of land need to be dedicated for energy production from solar and wind, compared to the relatively minuscule footprints required for energy production from fossil fuels.

The Enviro-Kooks don't even consider this in they're opposition to current energy sources. They just HATE Big Oil.
In fact try explaining energy volumes to an average person and you'll get the Homer Simpson vacant stare and a quick change of subject.

Andrew Grove, a founder and legendary CEO of Intel, once remarked that while his company was forced to double the speed of its microprocessors every eighteen months, the phone companies were content to double the performance of their networks once every hundred years. The dismal comparison is the result of the research focus of staff scientists like Dr. Chu. [Dr. Steven Chu, our Secretary of Energy]
