As we try to emphasize from time to time, in the course of our reportage concerning the very real and quite practical technologies which exist for converting our abundant Coal and our, some say too abundant, Carbon Dioxide into anything, quite literally anything and everything, we now spend too many American dollars and far too many young American lives to keep ourselves supplied with from some of the more hostile regions of the world - - and from the avaricious nations of OPEC - - an economical, ready supply of Hydrogen is needed to make those Coal and CO2 conversion, hydrocarbon synthesis technologies as efficient and profitable for us as they can be.

As we've previously stated, we prefer, in the course of our reportage on the very real potentials for the productive utilization of our vast and renewable Carbon Dioxide natural resource, to focus on the numerous technologies that are becoming available for the direct, chemical conversion of CO2 to synthesize a wide variety of valuable products, as seen, for one example, in:

We've made previous report of the work of the Coal Combustion Byproducts Recycling Consortium, whose name was later changed to just "Combustion Byproducts Recycling Consortium" - in acknowledgement, we suppose, of the social and political impropriety of using "dirty" four-letter words.
An example of that reportage would include:
West Virginia Coal Association | The Coal Combustion Byproducts Recycling Consortium | Research & Development; "The Combustion Byproducts Recycling Consortium", an operational group of entities housed and managed from within the "West Virginia Water Research Institute".

As is now irrefutable - - - as should some time ago have been headline news in every Coal Country newspaper serving US citizens whose way of life sprang from, and remains reliant on, the Coal mining and power generation industries, and whose way of life is being threatened by nonsense like Cap & Trade Carbon Dioxide taxation; indeed, as should have been headline news in every newspaper in the United States of America serving all US citizens whose way of life is threatened, has for a long time been crippled, by imported oil OPEC extortions - - - the United States Navy, as seen for one example in:

Our ongoing review of the available technical literature concerning the conversion of Coal into liquid and gaseous hydrocarbons has led to what, for us, is a rather startling, maybe even a disturbing, discovery.
As will become clear in some reports to follow in the near future, there was, quite obviously, a rather large, extensive and coordinated effort, sponsored - with our tax money - by the USDOE and the USDOE's precedent agencies in the late 1970's and early 1980's, to develop and refine the science and practical technology for converting Coal into liquid hydrocarbons like Gasoline and Diesel, just as the company, Sasol, has been doing in South Africa since the 1950's.
