Obviously if you knew anything about physics or electrical engineering, why, you'd know it was totally impossible. Clarke was one fine bull****ter. PSSST! Did you hear about the ELECTRIC AIRPLANES? The cynics all said they were IMPOSSIBLE. Utter nonsense. What was said, and is still being said, and will be said absent some astounding breakthrough in basic physics which enables batteries to be about an order of magnitude better than they are, is that electric airplanes are IMPRACTICAL. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. |
