So it doesn't supply one third of global electricity needs. It's yet
another example of you lunatics crowing over something that has
never-ever happened.
A 240MW tidal plant has been built in France in 1966. It has been working
fine since then. It was built in a very favourable location. No other
such plant has been built since then because even that one is only
marginally profitable. The plant provides 1/50th of the electrical power
of Brittany, a region which imports 90% of the electricity it uses.
Gravity from the sun and moon freely provides the energy,
Gravity is not an energy source.
Who said it was?
<CIA>
<CAP>
Did hillbillies gets da memo about energy not been able to be created
or destroyed -- hence dere is no energy sources (cept koal!)-- or did they
heared bout quanum flukkyashuns an da big bang yets?

[Maybe apples & oranges. Australians have allays kept their cars more
and longer and driven them further per year than other countries; also check
the distance between capital cities].
