OK, a polemicist. Now tell me what city on Earth, say with a population of 1 million or more is powered, 24 hours per day, all year round, homes hospitals, factories, by your precious 40 gigawatts? This is versus bad electricity sources like coal, hydroelectric, uranium or natural gas. Peking, Boston, Tokyo, Moscow? Brussels? Miami?

Subject: Re: Our Demon-Haunted World Brent, my analogy, however badly its thought-up, is to force the idealists to produce. My idea was to force the idealist back to painful reality and hard choices, rather then mentally living in La La land. Saying  "Oh they're working on solar and soon.."  Unacceptable. Tomorrowland existed no where except at Disney World. Naw. This is about getting the thinker to be realists, and not dreamers.  There are more than 40GW of installed solar capacity existing now and the rate of increase of capacity is literally exploding. You don’t know what you are talking about spudboy; you keep repeating nonsensical opinions with no evidence for them whatsoever.You are being a polemicist; and that is all you are doing.

If a cruel dictator has his goon point a semi-automatic at each of our heads and demands of us to immediately produce an energy source that will power his civilization for the rest of his life,
Easy.  Set him on fire.  :-)
