Has anyone else heard of this? I found it to be very interesting,
especially the last comment made by the speaker:

Yeah - I was reading an article about it the other day. MIT is
working on an adaptation of this system to increase the effectiveness
of photocells so they can work on cloudy days with infrared energy.

The interesting thing is that both systems produce lipids as part of
the process.

I read a piece earlier this year in the Washington Post that seemed very
similar. I think the technique is called algaculture. If it is really
viable, I'd like to see it developed and brought to market in public
universities via federal and state funding, with the people owning the
patents and technologies.

Too late for these guys. It's a public corporation, based in Vancouver,
B.C.
Imagine .... corporations researching and developing solutions to our energy
requirements.

What's your middle name anyway .... Marx? :-)

Evidently, the investors are near as fascinated as you are.....

They'll be on the pink sheets, soon....delisted and dead.

It's really a pity, too. it looks like an interesting technology.

-------------------------------------------

A Russian professor of microbiology in the USA has invented a bacteria that
produces a huge amount of HYDROGEN for its weight out of A) Sun and B)
Water. It, too is photosynthetic and creates its own food chain. The
byproduct gas is ENORMOUS! The little bugger is really flatulent!

Of course, just like this guy, he'll either sell his technology to Big Oil
so they can bury it, or have an accident on some backroad, somewhere....I
bet "they" find both of them drunk or on drugs.

Heh ... that crossed my mind as well, and I hadn't thought about that movie
in years.

There's plenty of research in that field.
