Sure, there are many ways to store potential energy. I suggested hydrocarbon replenishment, because our systems (cars, generators, etc.) are already setup to readily extract the energy for use. Hydrocarbons are a form of chemical storage, but I understand what you were trying to get at, and that's where the thermodynamic problems come in, creating potentialities chemically for adequate and continually reversible processing for storage. Speaking of thermodynamics. Fusion? Lol, no. Fusion is the energy of the future, and it always will be. Science isn't "magic", we are never going to be able to wield fusion for power generation. Not going to go all out on the details on that, but for the layman, Sun In A Bottle, by Charles Seife is a good read on the topic.
As for making fun of Californians, their plight is self-inflicted. That's the only reaon why it's "funny." They are suffering all for some perceived "virtue." It's not funny that they are suffering, but I am not going to explain humor to you either. They could have easily expanded their nuclear power capabilities, but they are "too good" for that, and will have a few of their reactors decommissioned mid-decade adding to the generating problems. Lighten up, pal.
Thanks for reply. I won't engage you about energy any more. "Magic" and all. But I would like you to consinder this - there are more conservatives in California than Texas. You can take that to the bank. We cannot place blame on the many given the action of the few. California is a political wasteland. I agree. But lets not forget about the Patriots who live there. I'm not about to write them off because of "unicorn farts", as you put it. They are Americans as much as you and I. They deserve our support.
