    How is something molten not a liquid? And presumably we're not talking about NaCl here since it's melting point is around 800 degrees C. Very sloppy reporting...

                              Wow. I see that in your short time here you've been routinely blasted for being a tad... let's say, "impolite". But i'm gonna try to be polite in this reply, on the off-chance that you're just new to this whole "written communication" thing:

                              1. When you quote from someone else's article, always attribute your quote. This should include at minimum the original title, author, and publication. If the article is on a website, then include a hyperlink to that site. If don't know how to include hyperlinks in your post, then ask. If posting from a periodical, then include the publication date.
                              2. Don't quote an entire article unless the original is unreachable. You should also attempt to obtain permission from the author.
                              3. Include your own thoughts. Why did you find the article interesting? What made you think others would? What sort of comments would you like to see?

                              Please keep these guidelines in mind when next you post something of this nature.

                              ----

                              I don't care what you consider witty, but at least I do not blather on posting nonsense like Jim Crafton.

                                  You still can't post the whole article. Fair use only allows a paragraph at most.

                                      Yes - economic efficiency - i.e. for every £1 of electricity I put in I get £4 worth of heat. Obviously the other heat comes from the air (othe people's heat, solar, birds farting, leaves mulching etc.)

                                        400% economic efficiency obvioulsy - i.e. for every £ of electricity going in I get £4 of effective heat - I'm not claiming the energy comes from nowhere...ultimately it comes from the sun which is why the post was on this thread.

                                          Nevada Solar One uses parabolic trough technology, so far the most economical system in use. It also happens to be right up the street (so to speak) from my house. I watched it being built, and snuck into the plant for a peek until the onsite security guy finished his donut and ran me off. I can't believe they gave that goof a gun.:suss: Still, he was nice about it. I'm working on getting our people here at the tribal power company a tour of the plant next Fall, since we may soon be building our own.:) (Shhh... you didn't hear that from me. I'm still spreading the rumor that the tribe is building a nuclear plant. We've got the river; we just need an active fault to build the facility atop.)

                                          Would like to see that plant in person, the pictures look amazing. I remember reading around on the site about Solar One, that given 1,500 square miles of land they could power the entire US. Probably best to have a bunch of smaller plants scattered around to lower the transmition lose, but still a great idea. Also, noticed a while back that they are building a plant of this type in Spain. Sure wish they would throw a few Billion $$$ of the goverment's pork funding into this one. But then again, providing a solution to everyone's energy needs is not exactly a good thing for a consumer driven economy that is wrapped up in fossil fuels..
