Bill Gates sees geothermal power as a key clean energy investment area of interest

Gee, that's swell, Bill, but the last time I heard from you you were pumping wind as a way better dilletante than solar. True enough but sometime weaklings that make grids as unsteady as a drunk trying to have just one more belt after the bar is closed are no solution.
Gates says, βThere is a phenomenal amount of energy stored up as heat under the Earthβs surfaceβmany times more than we could get from all the known coal and oil reserves in the world."
A bit light on facts, Bill, but you are coming around. There is far more energy stored in our small sun in the center of the earth and more fuel available throughout the planet than all other sources on earth combined. We radiate more energy daily than all the energy we receive from the sun and it goes out every night, so to speak.
So how come it's taken so long for people to learn what B.C. McCabe tried to tell people when he started drilling in the 1950's and made America the greatest geothermal power on earth?
- People just don't hear good with their mouths wide open I reckon.
Hey, where is everybody?
Thanks, Bill Gates. Some will hear and get very rich like you and McCabe did.
Best, Terry
