| #7 They used to do it non-electric with Chrysler Hemis modified to run on natural gas at each well and the radiators replaced with a divertor so that the well sream waters directly cooled the Hemis. This was abandoned due to vandalism by auto geeks wanting Hemi parts... so it was easier to just put all the cat diesels in a secure place (behind barb wire) and run out electric power to big electric pumps that vandals didn't care about. |

| #6 All the logic in that article is that the UK doesn't grow anything there so needs to import! Import requires fuel so obviously bad... Well a lot of my high school buddies in central Nebraska grow millions of bushels of soybeans and are quite happy to sell it to you! Seriously! You would love their 1000 feet deep wells into the Ogallala Aquifer. They do giant Caterpillar engine generators that run on natural gas. Then they have multiple electric pumps that pump the water. It's all carefully monitored with digital controls and moistness sensors. Currently even one day of water can be very expensive, in terms of natural gas, on the huge farms. $70,000 or $80,000 per day is not uncommon. One friend is considering digging his own gas wells as natural gas is pumped only 4 miles away from his home. If he does he gets a $70,000 per watering day advantage over his competitors for your food business! That should let him buy a few thousand more acres of land... |

| #1 Meat is still the best energy concentrated food out there. Always will be until someone can lab make something. There is a reason our ancestors moved to a omnivore diet. |
