I don't blame him for believing it is right around the corner. There are more intelligent people than him who buy into the story. There are even people who are willing to lose tons of money on the idea. God bless them. Personally I believe that there is tons of money to be made by buying energy companies in the stock market because of this widespread belief.

Good for the consumer though. You'd be amazed at the things we can do to steel pipe and the lengths we're getting. It's quite astonishing that you can sink a string of pipe into the ground and then go laterally 3.5 miles.

Originally posted by Gasser64the working time is increasing. The ratio is something like 50Mw in, 500Mw comes out. They've been able to have that work for... I forget but you can easily search and find out exactly. It was something like 4 min, then 16 min, then later 1 hr, then later still 4 hours. Do you really think they're just going to stop? Be realistic man: They all want this so bad they can taste it, and that run time is just going to keep increasing and increasing, until it stays on all the time

Just watch this, it'll serve as a good enough answer to pretty much all that stuff you said. One last time: No I do not think that this is going to happen right now, as I'm typing this. Or even in the next 5 minutes!

Fuck right off for trying to make other people feel inferior to your wiki knowledge. What, your 0.5% expertise on the subject is better than someone else's 0.4%?
You don't understand it either. Neither do I. Nor does anyone on this board (generally speaking, we do have other engineers and physicists here, but i still doubt anyone has any working knowledge). Knowing that atoms can fuse together which releases energy, and that there are some projects around the world is not the same as understanding. You read articles. You looked at wiki. You might have listened to podcast or two. You haven't put years of academic work into this, so fuck off with the "do you even understand" bullshit.
Out of curiosity, whats the highest level math class you've taken?

I do know a tiny bit more about the energy business though, particularly hydrocarbon sourced. There is a reason why I have contracts that will end after I retire. This business isn’t going anywhere for a long time. Green energy sources are great and the way of the future, but the technology and innovation and ease of use is far behind the hydrocarbon business. Texas has scads of idle wind power generators. It’s a lot easier to get oil and gas from Odessa to Dallas than it is windpower from Amarillo and it’s cheaper. Until that changes, this green energy ideal is still a dream. It’s a working dream, but things still need improved upon.

Most people that have knowledge do not feel the need to always prove so. You are great at that in that when you post something, it is thorough and filled with facts or states otherwise if needed. Gasser on the other hand just spouts random shit and decries he's an expert. It cracks me up to see "go search it" in his posts. I am sure his response to this one will be gold...
