Marketing is important for any company, but developing a heavy cargo
transport system that uses only the wind as a source of power could
change the world for the better IMO. It worked for thousands of years
before oil was discovered.and should work for thousands of years after
cheap oil.





Sorry, Joe, that's just more pie-in-the-sky. One of the main reasons for
motorized freight transport is reliable delivery times that are necessary
for just-in-time inventory:

Companies these days aren't run like companies were run in the age of sail.
Companies nowadays rely heavily on just in-time-inventory and on
just-in-time delivery practices. Read the above link and get educated.
