I thought this article on
Ball State University's
gshp project would be of interest. Nearly 4,000 wells and $66 million. I really hope they do it right...

If it acts up, give 'em Tuffs number, I'm washing my hair that day ;)
For those who don't know, the Bird's nest in the olympics was largely geo as well.
Let's hope the big boys on the world stage make us proud.

Don't want to touch it with a 10 foot--make that a 100 foot--or any length-- pole.
Maybe just some of the drilling would be ok.

Could of used this kind of thing when I was in the dorms. Some genius had the idea of putting a radiator in each room that puts each room up to 85 F or so in the winter. No way to alter it. If you want it cooler, open your window. Now that was an incredibly environmental way to run things. Hey Joe, should I drop your line to UM housing and suggest they update their setup, or do you have more hair to wash that day too?

Thanks for the offer, but I'm not up to the paperwork part of that job. As soon as state money gets involved my paperwork goes up 20 fold.
