   You are confusing net energy potential with economically recoverable   
   energy.   
      
   If it takes ten watthours to mine one watthour, then you have a net   
   energy sink and are simply destroying gasoline.   
      
   Mining Helium 3 off the moon makes almost (but not quite) as much sense   
   as recovering tire rubber off the highways.
