You have obviously been doing a great deal of studying since joining this thread. Have you checked out the Nate Hagens' "Blind Spots" presentation yet?

If you really want a well rounded understanding of the feasibility of rebuildables replacing what we have now, you will want to pick up a copy of David MacKay's book, "without the hot air".

Thanks Sendler,I'll try and get to all the literature if I can.
Without a computer at home and only limited time during the week to get to a computer,it's tough for me to do any meaningful online research.
I was given part of a friend's library after he passed,which includes SCIENCE and NATURE.The contributors to these mags are the folks involved in the IPCC reports each go around.They're considered the gold standard for peer-reviewed science of all kinds.
I appreciate the links.
