Is anyone immune? I am afraid to ask. There is a terrible new story about all the $$ around New Orleans and the Katrina nightmare. Obviously, there had been big bucks preKatrina, for both politicians and the Corps of Engineers. If I read the piece accurately, that earlier $$ amount pales by what is out there now….with both Landrieu’s and Vitter’s name on it. Never a shock when we are talking about LA; but what a price has been paid by the people.</p> I am sorry to hear that description about Barbara and the toys. Is anyone immune? I am afraid to ask.

things–yes- that’s a form of energy storage (hydrogen production). Would work- I don’t know about costs.

The cost of the sunlight to decompose water into O2 and Hydrogen is free. The cost of the sunlight to heat water and produce steam is free. The cost to the environment of Oil, and the cost of the oil wars is obscene.

Excellent Frank, and maintenance on Solar and Wind Farms cannot be as obscene as Nuclear power plants, handling Nuclear waste or the loss of life in Coal mines.
