It is deceitful to still call for plentiful energy, when you consume it completely. Cheapness and quantity is the logic of profit. And that is the pathway to destruction of our basis of life. Any energy available will be used for more consumption and therefore more wasting of resources and destruction of the ecosphere we are part of. The key is to consume less - less of everything you do now which is connected to industrial processes. We are still learning to accept, or resist with force: We cannot separate us from nature, the so called other life. But its health is ours, too. There is no other. We are them. They are us. This will be a civilisatory breaking point. And we western industrialized societies are the bad guys and girls, that is what history and reality tells us with unforgiving clarity.

You could buy a used Fuji Finepix E900 for around US$80,-. It has great value, still. Use it with Sanyo Eneloop Rechargables and off you go for hours and hours of nonstop shooting: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/FujiFilm/fuji_finepixe900z.asp. It is a great small package and very convenient to use and carry. At the moment it anihilates our need (more lust, though) for a DSLR and videocam completely, as it is much more convenient to lugg around - to save the moments only parents ... you know what I mean ...

.... quite do not understand, why NASA and ESA won t join all their forces to get the ATV and it s planned offsprings running high: http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/ATV/SEMNFZOR4CF_0.html It still puzzles me, that such closed allies run amok regarding the nationalistic approach inbuilding those technologies. I truly believe that this would speed up the programs schedule by 50% the least. It seems like the best concept out there, in direct comparison to the american proposal and the Kliper/Parom technology not yet developed by the russians due to unsolid fundings.
