Glad to be giving the world an opportunity to work in a cleaner way... in decades to come we will look back at the 20th Century and think how crazy we were to be burning coal and oil when there are such abundant sources so close at hand... we just needed to improve the efficiency of collection and use. I imagine our children's children may look back at our present energy use in the same way we look back at medieval medicine? ![]() I had never really thought of it that way, but that's a good way to put it! We like to think we're so smart and advanced, but there's so much we don't know. |

We like to think we're so smart and advanced, but there's so much we don't know.Or another way of looking at it in decades to come is "why are we spending five times as much for energy, when we could use coal for a fraction of the cost." All the power plants near me burn coal, yet our air is among the cleanest in the world. Hmmmm.... |

We produced nearly 450,000 points yesterday! That's our best this year and 9th best all-time! The 8 days that were better than this one occured when we had visitors from the Base Camp. (And it still beats at least 15 other days where we were aided by the Base Campers!)
Keep cranking out the work, the WCG techs will make more. ![]() |

More great crunching from the team! We've had 3 days in a row of more than 400,000 points. That hasn't been done since August of 2007 when we were aided by the Base Camp.
