I recently discovered a secret cache of energy that could be tapped to solve
all of the world's energy problems... if we could just get productive access
to all of the energy that goes into flame-wars on the web, then the world
would be on the verge of utopia! (if we could _meter_ it, then there'd be an
incentive for the private sector to tap it.)

Last time I checked, the cosmos was/is packed with energy-information.
It's our underdeveloped epistemic abilities to tap it in ecologically
benign ways that's the problem..........

"Science?"

"Yes, please."
