3 edits | Well ya see, NBC is right but their problem is thinking on too small a scale and their argument is obtuse.
Lets first straighten out the obtuseness of their argument it will hurt the corn growers. They really mean the popcorn growers. Well that's alright because now that ethanol is the latest pseudo science that is going to save the planet. Those popcorn growers can now switch to the much more profitable version of corn used to make ethanol. And since there is mostly a finite amount of tillable acreage the switch to growing corn will naturally INCREASE the price of corn.
That also addresses to a certain degree their scale issue. So lets explore that a bit further.
Now that ethanol will be powering trucks and said trucks also carry tubes. We can use these tubes to carry trucks and in effect power the many, many tubes that make up the internet. So not only do we get clean burning internet tubes, we at the same time save the planet by using a more renewable energy source to power the internet.
So I have to credit NBC for their insightful vision to want ISPs to block our tubes of unclean material so that the planet saving can become more focused at eliminating that inter-dimensional elephant everyone has in their room.
Admittedly, said elephant has never gotten in my way, nor has it ever invaded my space but like the creators of the Krikkit Robots, just knowing it is there means, it just has to go. |
