Why aren't we using more and more of this? I know that in some places they have to drill some really deep wells but we have to remember that well only has to be drilled once. Even if it took a year or more to sink the hole we'd still be far ahead. In the interim where its not so deep to make it dificult to get to we need to start building enough of the geo-thermol plants to supply all the electrical power in the area where its feasible to transport it to. That way we could retire some of the nasty assed coal plants, some of the older nuclear ones too maybe. We should set a goal to get all our electrical energy from this one source, say in 2020 or 2030 but sometime soon not later. We can do better
