Ideas that are theoretically impossible don't become practical which is what most of the hair brained schemes posted on USENETe are.
Ideas that are merely economically impractical may have a slim chance at some point in the future.

And some things that are currently economically unviable become economically viable as stuff like the price of oil increases and stays high.

Um, I evidently misread one of the quotes.
Sorry about that.

Yup. The other thing is that people often learn more from "failures", than from successes. If you go through a planning process, or through someone else's plannnig process, and find out that the idea is unworkable, you've learned something (or at least had a great opportunity to learn something). In a way, success is built upon prior failures - both one's own, and those of others.
The trick is knowing when to realize that an idea is unworkable, disengage form it, and then take the experience gained and rework it.

Er.... I make that 1000 seconds, which is more like 17 minutes, not three hours. Not 3.3 hours, either.
also, don't you need to know how much mass of water (i.e. not square meters, but cubic meters?) Or, is this a 1 square meter column of water 30 meters high?
