It's one far out radical wild looking boat, someone's throwing
truckloads of cash to sponser it.

Biofuel works well and has low emissions but suffers from the disadvantage
that if everybody went for it the entire landscape would disappear under
ugly quick-growing crops to feed the factories. A projected biofuel power
station in Uk has been abandoned for this reason recently.
And expensive and ugly wind farms in Uk have failed consistently to meet
their projected load factors due to lack of wind.
But all this makes governments look as if they are doing something to combat
global warming and the contractors who build them go away happy with public
money in subsidies.
The trouble is that 'nuclear power' is hard to sell to the public.

Well, the gas I'm using includes 10% ethenol, so I might qualify. Looks
like Saturday may be a nice sailing day. - 78 degrees, 5 - 15 knot winds.

You like sailing in the fog ?

It's thick as snot right now... and never burned off today.
