Yes, he is right and it is obvious to all but the completely mechanically illiterate. I once saw published the idea of sinking a pipe to the bottom of the ocean. Since the pressure down there is very high, it should then be possible to use the pressure differential between the bottom and the surface to drive turbines. Putting turbines in a stream bed is .0001% less stupid.
Well, that would be me, and that's why I asked -- no offense taken, though. Meanwhile we have two proposals for "clean" coal powerplants in Western New York.
One doesn't make sense economically and the other is being held up by the enviros who've made it clear they won't tolerate a single molecule of CO2 being emitted into the air.
I suppose that once we've all switched to fluorescent bulbs, the whole problem will have been solved. Meanwhile Louise will spend a few millions of our money on a project that won't work.
