are you talking about the hydrate(sp?) that is on the ocean floor?If I remember the report correctly (it was a week or so ago and I was busy negotiating D.C. traffic at the time) that was one of the great things, very small amounts needed.I think it is pretty limited on Earth but I guess you don't need a whole bunch of it. I would LOVE to see the US become the world leader in nuclear power.
CF thinks it was Hydrogen 3, I honestly don't remember if that was the element they were talking about in the report.
But I still think my idea of harnessing the hot air generated in congress would solve all of our energy problems.
