#2 That's too much Copper Wire. You are better to burning off this natural contaminate GOD gave you to move about with torque, speed, safety, and it is everywhere to harness. By the Grace of the Lord.

Explain to me how you will afford that electrical cable or bend in frequency or form?

Humans Could stop acting like know it all ass#oles and use the gifts they have already to fix the place, but they could not make others suffer otherwise.

Sometimes, the ground "game" matters.
I don't you traipsing around the Universe. You may look but do not move there.

What you fix here starts with your idiot politics and your laziness to know what would or would not help.

Unicorns are all you have. The Hard Logic is what will FEED MY CREATION.

#4 Utilizing science and resources are not the issue for this world. The human condition is the problem that needs fixing: 7 deadly sins, tyranny, abuse of power......

#6 Plagiarist. The Ophiuchi Hotline (1977) by John Varley: micro black holes are harvested in the Oort cloud and used to produce energy.

#7 Microscopic black holes either evaporate or become the real thing. Evaporation is a theory ....

This could be the biggest Darwin award ever.

#12 Well just dangle it from a stick in front of your car, and you can do light speed.

Russians hell; the new paleo tank is powered by a black hole which was mined last week from the 3,5879th most holy site of dar islaam. A black hole so powerful it collapsed the roof of the unaccompanied miners' funeral house.

#13 Waiting for Jesse Jackson to noodle this through to a new theatre of blacks being exploited -> reparations for black holes - also nicely allegorical to what happens to our tax $ anyway.
