what ???? more abuntant ???
With cheap energy (like we have had) we become a wasteful society. All of the remote control TV's, cell phones etc all suck up a little here and a little there. We have A TON of servers here that serve one small app and mostly sit there and spin at 1-5% utilization. The vendor says this has to be on its own server.... crap, or this only runs if this specific software is at this version that is different than what you are running over there. WASTE, WASTE, WASTE !
Instead of making energy cheap and abundant we need to look at reducing our dependance and making things more efficient in their use. The entire reason people are complaining about gas being so expensive is alot of them are driving a 4WD SUV getting 11 MPG with a HEMI 40 miles round trip to work. We lost sight of the fact that fossil fuels are plentiful but eventually we will burn them all, then, what do we do ?
