it's still not viable, but they expect to have a plant open by 2011. what do you guys think?

i thought it sounded too good to be true, but investors and managers include a guy from Sun Microsystems and a Harvard professor..

I thought this was going to be about nuclear power.

I'm sure that plant won't open until a few years after 2011 at the earliest and it'll probably have to overcome some bumps in the road, like ethanol and solar power, to be considered the next new fuel source. It could definitely be a part of the conglomerate of new fuels to use if they can find a good food source for them.

like the article says though, we're not even talking about adaptations like those demanded by hydrogen, it's still oil.

Awesome! I wish it works as they intend it
As an extra bonus, I like seeing opportunities gradually open up in my research field!
