Alternative fuels huh?  That is EXACTLY what we need to resolve the situation in the Middle East.

WTG Steve....

I'd stay real close to this kid MT....he is going to be a very wealthy man.

Curval,
While agree that this is exactly what we need, I do disagree with MT's nephew becoming very wealthy off of it.

It's been proven time and time again, the real wealth goes to the folks who control the infastructure.  The distribution and logistics of the fuel.  As is the case today.

I do think MT's nephew could, like some MIT notables ahead of him, make a nice pile of the green though.

Cobra

PS... MT sorry for the hijack....Congrats to your nephew!

Cobra,

You disagree with me and then say he could, like many MIT notables, make a nice pile of green.

I think we are in complete agreement.  I'm not saying he will necessarily make his money from alternative fuels just that he will be an MIT grad.  You can basically "write your own ticket" with a degree from that school.  I put the "wtg Steve" where I did to separate the two thoughts.

Curval,
Understood and I agree!

I linked the two sentences together in your original post...my bad.

Plus, the world would stop spinning if we agreed completely! :)

S!

Midnight Target, read my thread about "who need oil". It is about what your nephew is probably studying about.

Paaleeez!

Socialist maybe!
 :cool:


Actually he has always seemed old for his age. He was a good enough athlete to captain his High School's Basketball team, and still end up as Valedictorian. He has spent the last year in Spain working on his Masters and working for Motorola. Great Kid.
