  The clip features the head of Valcent in Texas explaining the Vertigro technology they're using to grow algae.The video is quite old, I think, because he's only claiming about 15,000/gallons/acre/year. They are currently producing 50,000 gallons per acre per year, and hope to be at 100,000 gallons/acre/year sometime this year (soy is 49 gallons per year (not 49,000 gallons per year, but 49 gallons per acre per year) Canola is 130, African oil palm is 655, Jatropha up to 16,000.)


All truth passes through three stages:
   First, it is ridiculed;
   Second, it is violently opposed; and
   Third, it is accepted as self-evident.

-- Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860)
