He makes the entire venture really seem like a set of easy steps.<br /><br />A few years ago I was researching the group he proposed be founded in Step 1. They are still around and for a while they did actual work on his ideas. Many of the things haven't yet panned out, like the creation of strong and stable concrete from the ocean's waters using a charged grid. The OTEC idea is also an interesting one that seems to get a bit of attention every now and then, but except for a few isolated cases has not been implemented.<br /><br />One of the ideas that Savage presents, I think towards the end of the book, is perhaps more important than any of the rest of his ideas. He suggests that the expansion of the human race into the solar system and then the galaxy will bring green to the universe, both literally and figuratively. We will carry with us the astounding miracle of life and bring it to the dead places of the Cosmos.Anthony Kendallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08382790561397029045noreply@blogger.com
