Very good points, but drilling is not the only approach. I like solar collector plants using molten sulfur as a heat reservoir for 24-hour operation. The Australians think it will work for them, including adding them to their national grid. We've quite a bit of desert that could be used to power the West.

I hope it works, but my inclination is that it will end up like the liquid sodium breeder reactors with a lot of trouble caused by the operating fluid.
