About the Mike Little story. Uddeboda, are you living in the stone age? It's people like you who think that instant gratification is the best soulition. The $100 million you say the incineration plants cost could be better spent and achieve many other usefull products allong with electric generation. Liquid transportation fuel being the most important. If you think Sweeden is so much better than America then please move there. And a few are incinerating waste right here in America, I know there is a plant in Florida. And the "monkey see monkey do" lazy fools see that and that makes it all the more difficult for the people like Mile who are trying to get every possible usefull product out of that waste. Look at the problems with the prison in northern Nevada that spent tax money for a similar plant ($8.3 million of state tax money to get 1.03 MW of electricity from a steam turbine using forest waste and a photovoltaic system.)and the waste stream is not enough to fuel it 24/7 so all that expensive equipment sits there and does nothing, more than it produces any energy. Yet another example of what happens when people who studied political "science" insted of real science get involved.
Everyone who is serious about energy independance needs to learn the definition of efficency and apply it to everything they do including spending money. Forest waste (AKA biomass) can be converted into liquid fuel and NOT YUCKANOL.
