Solar powered stirling generators, stirling car engines, a solar concentrator that amplified solar
cell outputs, boron fueled generators, several types of alternative power plants for cars
including a hyraulic motor similar to Buckminster Fuller's original concept for the Dyamaxion car.
An automated deep sea mining system to extract minerals from both sea water and the ocean floor.
Nobody would back further developments beyond test models. But military and nuclear projects got lots of money. Also many big projects for middle eastern oil facilities.

pinnacle, thanks. Was this all in one company (GE?) or a number of different places?

I just spoke with a friend who knows a "real estate genius", who bought 5 properties outside the bay area, and 3 IN the Bay Area.
All on an income of $60,000 per year!
Well, she has now lost ALL those properties, including the 3 in the bay area.
This is one of those watershed moments I have been waiting for. The genius locals who have leveraged themselves out the wazu are starting to default left and right.
If there are any others out there, that have heard similar stories about these Geniuses in the bay area, please post a note.
Thank you
