Looks like we need less bedroom energy....

Not sure about flying aeroplanes with electric motors, although electric
model planes are very very big deal ... however, I was raised on a 300 acre
corn and livestock farm, all farming was done with what you would call a
garden tractor now ( allis chalmers d14 ) , maybe 30 hp at wishful thinking.
we just got up earlier and stayed in the field later ... had headlights, you
know....

....oh, and did you know most train engines now are propelled via electric
motors .... one of the original "Hybrids...  " ...........

......... seems what we need more than anything is dang good batteries ....
that would make solar (/wind ) energy look pretty good ....      I like the
idea of running windmills like crazy, maybe a million of them in the states,
if we ever get serious ....    and convert water to hydrogen/oxygen with the
excess  power, use the hydrogen & oxygen as a storage method ...

Don't worry.... when things get tough(er) in the future, just go to your
cave and watch reality shows ....  The Government "We Care " Truck will soon
arrive with everything you need ....   or maybe just haul you away to the
Soylent Green Factory ... ( heh ) ...
