New Energy Source?

07/01/2009 5:57 AM

Here's why you should never invest in a free energy project ...

Maybe they can still recoup their investment by setting up their own unagi-ramen stall....

...rather invest in a beer factory!!!

Free energy will never work. Soon we will be taxed on the amount of air we breathe, the amount of day light we enjoy and the privilege to see a tree…

Nothing is free…for long...

But what is really the problem with free energy???

<...what is really the problem with free energy?...>

The large amounts of unobtainium that need to be mined to make it.

Yeah, wasn't there a little blurb going around a while back about miles per gallon and beer?

If anyone remembers the details, I'd love to see it again -- I can't find it in my saved email.

Looks like a technology Obama might push with his Cap & Trade program.

Unagi ramen is Japanese for eel noodles.
