Typically, new technology becomes lower in price as time and ingenuity
take their course.

Biomass is not new technology. The government has been pouring money
into it for 40 years.

Oh, man, you've watched way too much FOX. I'd guess that there's no new
technology in airplanes because they've been around since the Wright
Brothers, eh?

40 years after the Wright brothers first flew (dec 1943), commercial
aviation was an established industry. There were dozens of companies
making money with airplanes. Airlines were flying around ther world.
The Germans were flying jet fighters and so were the Brits
40 years after the energy crisis prompted government money to be spent
on biomass, we still do not have any real functioning plants and there
are not really any break through developments, only dreams.

So, in your non-scientific mind, any technology should follow the exact
same timeline as aviation????

You brought up the Wright brothers.

Yes, I did, so where in my diatribe about them did you get the idea that
I think that all technology should follow the same timeline as aviation?
Also, be advised that aviation is STILL and will continue to be,
evolving.

You brought up the Wright brothers as an example

In less than 66 short years the Wright brothers flew at Kitty Hawk and man landed on the Moon
and returned to Earth safely.
