agreed. but beware using that energy to power toaster ovens. I imagine there was a reason tesla kept his miracles under his hat. maybe when you use energy gluttonously (as humans tend to do) then bad things happen. for example, if you harness the energy in the ionosphere, who's to say you aren't robbing the energy that powers the planets magnetosphere? you know, the force field that deflects the majority of the suns harmful radiation? I think the planet might be overpopulated. too many microwaves cooking too many burritos. but what if rather than perpetrate eugenics you sat down with the human race and explained to them about r and k selection. warn them of infestations, show them things like heron islands deer problem. secretely manipultating everyone and shortening their lives, or straight snuffing them is evil. the truth will set you free.
