Hold on,just have … Hold on,just have to become a Christian before making that call. Right,lets see. .read the Bible & believe it,ignore my rational & logical thinking. .
A4A’s tech in … A4A’s tech in question is just a filter; a diesel engine can run off of filtered waste veggy oil. If it’s a larger device, it’s likely a scaled down trans-ester plant (how bio-diesel is made), but I would wonder how much methanol he goes through per tank-full.
Ahhh, TCP. … Ahhh, TCP. Excellent tech. I wish it would get more widely adopted.
Or better: scaled down for home use. Imagine the contents of your insinkerator and the output of your toilet being converted into fuel. It’d save significantly on transport costs by using what energy you don’t capture from your food.
If oil can be found … If oil can be found on the moon, an additional benefit is that while startup costs are high, shipping becomes cheap: just escape the Moon’s gravity (far easier than on earth, because of low gravity and no wind resistance), with trajectory targets just offshore to your customers. You could even process en route, using energy captured by a kind of combination parachute / turbine to capture the potential energy from your falling shipping craft.
Point on your first … Point on your first idea:
Medical insurance is not a requirement in the US, and costs between $40 and $200 a month, depending on your medical condition.
Still, wouldn’t stop them from forming a prayer insurance company.
I wonder how many … I wonder how many have actually tried to find fault in your logic. I’m too lazy to look through all your comments, but I jsut have to wonder how many creationists actually found fault. I mean those who really believed ahat they were saying eveough to tell you. He, he, he.
Great harsh … Great harsh Northern pronounciation ‘bastard’, Phil : “Big. Rich. Oil. Greedy. BASStard.”
You make a strong case for it. I however am partial to the posh overstretched A with a light O sound in it - the Southern pronounciation : “Big. Rich. Oil. Greedy. BAOAAstard. (Obviously I’m no liguist.)
I’m sure they lied … I’m sure they lied to get onto capitol hill. lol the stuff creationists say is funny, it’s supplied me with hours of entertainment
A4AF > “However, … A4AF > “However, this is not petroleum.”
True. Here’s part of the article;
“Bio-oil is produced through a process called pyrolysis, in which organic scrap materials are finely ground and heated at 400 to 500 degrees Celsius, without oxygen. In just two seconds, … is condensed into bio-oil; the end result looks surprisingly similar to petroleum.”
2 seconds!!! Maybe the reason for the difference in chemical composition?
Oh yea you’re right. Someone I know took a diesel engine and some kind of special thing to run off bio-stuff. I know very scientific terms
However, this is not petroleum.
Yes we do! If you … Yes we do! If you are familiar with Kongs they’re just like that except rather than using dog biscuits we use small children. The kids just love being tossed around the yard. You can hear them screaming with laughter. Well I’m pretty sure it’s laughter.

Hey Fordi.
Ya, TCP as you described could really revolutionize energy access & distribution problems (costs).
I’m focussed on solar/hydrogen/electric energy myself, but I could easily incorporate TCP.

That was ed up! Not all greedy-Texas-oil-bastards are creationists. Take me for instance.

Same deal, copy & paste into Google. This time it’s the first hit.
Here’s a snippet to whet your appetite;

Interesting though, huh.

Could you enlighten Phil and myself.

Phil does have a way with words, no question.
His claim that it takes millions of years to make oil falls flat though. You can make oil in days or less. Which leads to bigger questions, no?
