Re: [ST] FYI Gas prices



Excerpt from http://www.lifeaftertheoilcrash.net/SecondPage.html

For instance, it would take 4 Manhattan size city blocks of solar
equipment to produce the amount of energy distributed by a single gas
station in one day.

With 17,0000 gas stations just in the United States, you don't need to
be a mathematician to realize that solar power is incapable of meeting
our urgent need for a new energy source that - like oil -  is dense,
affordable, and transportable.

On a similar note, It would take close to 220,000 square kilometers of
solar panels to power the global economy via solar power.

For example, imagine the impact on electricity production if every house
had solar panels that fed back into the grid.

Any thoughts?
