#3 homicidal_squirrel Sep 21, 2011 17:18:57	This reminds me... whatever happened to Lokaire?
#4 bone_naga Sep 21, 2011 17:22:17	I don't know. I don't think I've seen him since his last ban.
#5 homicidal_squirrel Sep 21, 2011 17:23:21	Looks like they finally got him.
#6 Ragnar_Lodbrok Sep 21, 2011 17:40:53	Huh. Cool. Wonder how much energy you get out of it? Edit: Never mind, the article specifies.
#7 Mad_Jack Sep 22, 2011 3:03:10	The thing that I noticed is, although the article points out that the aluminum isn't used up in the process, it doesn't mention anything about the other materials used. I'd assume that they're probably consumed in the process. The price of tin has been rising steadily for years, as evidenced by the rising cost of our miniatures, and one of the links in the article covers the increasing price of the rare earth elements.
