TDP isn't a cold fusion scam, I'll say that much. I do suspect they aren't getting the efficiencies they want out of it yet, but I don't blame the guys for playing it close to the vest - there are many interests that want to see them fail, who are poised to spring into action to kill the Carthage plant. Ethanol isn't really efficient either, of course, but it has a huge, organized lobby.

As for the microwave process, I'd like to see more info. But it's a lovely idea.
