They look ok Kat, what do you think of them?

I absolutely agree with this pure energy source.
But, you know, all governemnts all over the world will find the way how - and mostly WHY - to increase prices of energy. When there was created a large dam system of water power stations on the Danube 30 years ago, there was a strong eco opposition. The main arguments were that it would destroy the last large natural nesting places of cormorants in Europe and it will cause elevation of underground waters. Argument of the government at that time was, that we would become energy independent from other countries and preference of pure energy source. What is reality? Power stations on Danube were sold to Italians, so the prices of energy have enormously increased. Many houses along the Danube branches have drenched basements, cormorant population was reduced and we are going to build a new nuclear power station, as we are not (again) energy independent. The only advantage which I see now in this hydroelectric dam system is, that it had great impact on floods. There aren´t almost any now on the Danube.
I like Austria in their way of pure power utilization and I think countries, which have sea, they have even much more possibilities to produce energy for "a penny".
Hope, you are not tired now :)

Lol not tired, the price of energy here is a joke, it's so pricey, so I do like the idea of clean energy as long as its practicle.

Believe me, there is a group of around 120 influential people in the world. They are making the prices and global strategy. I am sure, that even if all energy in the world was produced only by the wind and sea tides, they will find out, how to increase energy prices for us.
This group so much loves POWER, lol.

Your probably right Kat.

Thank you, SL. It tickles my ego when others agree with me ;-) However I would be happier, if I wasn´t right in this case.

Yes I know what you mean. :-)

Quite right Kat, energy prices and in particular oil are being manipulated to make them as expensive as possible.
All hell will break loose when they try and invade Iran, not to mention the price fixing of gas. All of it is totally corrupt.
