personally, i think it is possible today, but the economics of it are a different thing.

but grinding big rocks into powder to make beer cans when you can pick up refined aluminum in any alley in chi cant make economic sense, either.

ppl need to get used to paying the green tax.
i get shit for asking $10/doz for eggs, when that is the farmers market price.
foodies are happy to pay. and health nuts. but normal ppl, not so much.
and tho my inputs would allow me to sell my organic heirloom tomatoes at a price that competes w mexican imports, fuck if i will.
