The company in the link is making them out of wood.
Funny that most of the other article titles start with "saltwater may make". If it happens, seems to be Teslas.
Gotta be better than his pro-Putin documentary.
He starts with all the anti-nuke protests, then does a 180 and shows how we need nukes.

Supposedly 100% power produced will be used by a local Microsoft server farm. Being a local, were not super happy about that. When unit 1 shut down, our power rates basically tripled. They claimed it wasn't profitable to keep it going, even though they had just extended the operating permit. As far as I know, it's more a less a done deal at this point. Just need the clear the inspections/updates and whatever other red tape that needs done.
Not a rumor, it's happening. If palisades and 3 mile island work out, I'd expect to see more shuttered plants to start coming back on line too.
They’re phasing the coal plant out at Port Sheldon, that’ll be its replacement. Big old pile to burn through yet.
I'll go look at it and probably test drive it but my days of wanting/needing a minivan are long behind me. Even thinking about coast to coast travel, I don't want to do that in a minivan.
I like the looks of the SUVs but will wait a few years to let the VW bugs show themselves.
I've been tempted but just can't figure out how to make a 2500 round trip work with an electric only vehicle. Thinking of the early days when diesel was not as widely available. There were a few pucker moments!Be careful, you may be tempted to the dark side.
Just about ran out of diesel in San Diego on a Sunday in 1979- CA tax on fuel was high so most over the road truckers bought out of state, local truckers didn't work weekends so the couple stations with diesel were closed. Stayed overnight with a friend and fueled up Monday morn before heading back to Minnesota.
I had a similar experience in 1978 in San Francisco. Drove up there from LA for the weekend, and Sunday morning there were no diesel stations open in the city. My Rabbit was well into the red on the fuel gauge. I ended up depending on my girlfriend's charms (later my wife) to ask a local dairy to give us a few gallons of diesel so we could get to the interstate.
Maybe they can make a plant that burns windmill blades.
I got a surprise back in '05 when I pulled into a service station and none of the diesel pumps had the restricted nozzle. I had to borrow a funnel and splash some diesel in to make it back to the highway.
