It's going to be v cold til the end of Feb! Every cloud has a silver lining. Thanks for interesting link. In their view state of art salt cavern facilities have more opportunities, more uses, and less costs than other storage reservoirs. Also to be factored in are business rates and electricity for compressors (inject/withdraw).

Not sure Snow who will be offtakers? Suppliers like SSE or Firmus? Don't know if Mutual, they operate transmission and own the transmission pipelines too, from ballylumford to Belfast City. Could be expanding? Whoever, can't wait!

why's this all necessary, NI main supplier SSE has jacked up prices to consumers blaming rising costs on "global markets and rising network charges, and sustained increases in wholesale fuel and transportation costs". Need to store some cheap gas?

I've written to SP and asked, lets see

hello fella
full nodes are essential to the structure of the network, they analyse and verify (for security) all transactions before passing them onto the next node. Once it's done the rounds it gets authenticated. SP run them from Singapore, Delaware and Frankfurt. the other 7 are run by SDF, Coinqvest and Lobstr. Got to be a fee no? I guess IBM are still sticking around.

it is what it is, welcome back blu. as of v recently, SP now runs 3 full validator nodes (maintaining a database of all past ledger operations, with publicly accessible history archives and the fastest available API for querying the ledger) to support the stellar network. that's some serious storage (700GB a node). There are only about 10 full nodes on the network, will SP get income from it?

wearable health monitors have been required last few days, various alarm sounds provided

good article on the space they are trying to move into

a lot of these past products, in the small companies mentioned and owned by tdk, have been powered by usb or AA's up to now, how will they wangle a supercap in there? the times they are a-changin'.

I love it all apart from this sentence, "the company will require substantial additional sales resources to address the content provider opportunity" (p40) Go Katja!

have this project underway called "attracting tomorrow". (if not perhaps the day after) Hope all are well. Here's a bit on it.
