Well, we’ll never get anywhere with this. FReepers have weighed and declared it unfeasible or not real.
I wonder what they would have said over the ages about other technologies? Water power? Steam? Electricity? Internal combustion? Nuclear fission?
I’d bet they’d declare all of that unfeasible because , yada, yada, yada.
LOL, so true. I have seen a lot of these. But then again, it isn’t as if they haven’t been saying “Fusion will be here in 20 years...!” for the last fifty years, and every single day during that time interval. I don’t blame people for being cynical.
I believe it is something we should spend money pursuing. But then I also believe we should spend money on all manner of fission reactors, pebble bed reactors, Thorium reactors, you name it.
I think wind and solar might have a place too, if they can ever conquer the storage issue. And even eventually, Electric Vehicles.
But it is insanity to mandate those things like wind, solar, and Electric Vehicles before there is any movement on the unanswered questions.
Leftists just believe “If you build it they will come”. That’s great for imaginary baseball fields, not so good for the basic infrastructure of industrial societies.
