You'd need about 3 billion of those to power a 914 (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) (yes, I did the math)

"If it could be scaled up to the size of an automobile engine, it would be 100 million times more powerful than a Toyota Camry?s 225 horsepower V6 engine, the researchers say."
Now wouldnt it be more impressive if they said: "If it could be scaled up to the size of an automobile engine, it would be 37 million times more powerful than a Porsche Carrera GT's 600 horsepower V10 engine, the researchers say." (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) |

IMO, you can't trust any writer who doesn't know that "eek " is an expression of surprise, such as after seeing a rodent or spider, and 'eke' is used in their context...
