Then we'll have a problem with electricity too since the majority is
generated from gas.
I reckon natural gas supplies will be reserved for industrial processes in
the not-too-distant future and domestic supplies will be phased out and
that the future for electricity generation on a massive scale lies in the
nucular domain with any amount of harebrained schemes to supplement it on
a domestic level....
Anybody do the BBC1/Chan 4 'double news' like me tonight?
We had a French baguette baker saying 'Ze nucular power? She is very good!'
at the beginning of the BBC news (before the 'asking the reporters to make a
guess' bit) and a wacky Shell advert featuring windfarms at the end of the
Chan 4 news!!
I rest my case...
