I would not be suprised to find out that we could do exactly as Norm suggests. But I have another thought- What about burning all of our waste to keep the electric plants running. I mean we produce a lot of trash that just gets buried or sent out to sea and then dumped. I read once that over 75% of our waste is recyclable and the other 25% is burnable. I know for a fact that burning waste is a very popular option for those who live in rural areas of AZ to get rid of trash so why not send it to the places where we are burning to make electricity? Coal mining is dangerous and trash is a plentiful source and one that we will always have.
So what do you think? If we burn our trash to make electricity then build vechiles that run on bio-diesel and use the electricity to manufacture that fuel we could do a lot of good and it would be alot cheaper.
Or even better why doesn't someone come up with perpetual motion or cold fusion or the warp drive engine for that matter? I mean come on if Gene Roddenberry could come up with that theroy then why can't our scientists do the same? What is the deal here anyway?
Oh well back to working on the truck someone pass me a 3/4" wrench will you?
