[QUOTE="akaPABLO01, post: 5568698, member: 43748"] I laugh at this half arsed attempt to harness the power of the earths core, I laugh so hard I feel embarrassed for Southampton with Alan greasing his own pockets abusing his position of power. 75°C is embarrassing. Council meeting went like this; Reet, what’s on the agenda today? Erm, nowt. But look at this gas bill for the town hall! Alan, you have a company that deals with CHP don’t you, how ‘bout we jump on board and get some free heat and power? Alan: thought you blokes would never ask, me mates out back with his drilling kit, we will drill a deep hole and harness the earths core. (Alan sits back in his chair made of skulls from conquered kings and begins to realise that he can tap council funds to further research his own companies prospects, winner, winner chicken dinner) Driller outside smoking a fag. Alan to driller Told ya, easy money this council thing, I’ve managed to get them to invest all the council money in Iceland’s banking system after that trip I did looking at their geothermal works. You fresh from drilling Scotland’s final oil well, we’ve dropped on here. Alan to driller. Alan sticks his finger in his mouth and points it towards the sky. Driller, drill over there I have a great feeling about this. Driller, so, you don’t want me to look at the geological maps see what under this place? Alan, no matey, my unit where the lads work is just there, that’ll do nicely muchly, sharpen up the kit. Flashback to Iceland. Alan finishing off his whale steak. So you drill an average well into a volcano about 2.5km deep and harness 150° steam to run turbines? Fast forward to Southampton and the local press are witnessing Alan put a spade in the ground underneath his business sign, the scam starts here I mean steam!! Months later the driller still smoking the same fag realises he only has 1000m of kit. Alan, I need another 100k son, I’m getting through this bedrock nearly there, just need some more pipe, there’s an oil well in Scotland rapping up seeking cheap gear I’ll buy it. 12 months later Driller to Alan Alan, I’ve gone through too many diamond bits and run out of pipe the rock is too dense you can have 1800m and 75°, final bill is 500,000 Alan, sh!t, how can I make this up? I know, I’ll put a CHP unit on and call it geothermal no one will be the wiser Tada The earths core, feel the power!!! Council meeting. So Alan, we’ve spent 2 mill, the bills are £1,200 a year, I don’t think this works? Yeah but at least we are getting good high interest rates in Iceland’s banking system, the interest will pay that back. Everyone slaps everyone on backs. Great job boys!! [/QUOTE]
