    <wp:comment_content>Dave thanks for your post. As you noted, tidal power is real, and I think it has a good future. Here are some other resources on this topic:

    - EPRI has done some good work summarizing the potential of wave and tidal energy here: http://www.epri.com/oceanenergy/streamenergy.html

    - NYC currently has a pilot project online in the East River. I wrote a brief post about that here: <a href="http://seacoastnrg.org/2007/01/02/nycs-new-tidal-power-turbine-is-online/</wp:comment_content">http://seacoastnrg.org/2007/01/02/nycs-new-tida...>
