I want five seconds. Technology has evolved how many times since that evaluation was done. I imagine the difference in cost would now be much less than a factor of three. By the time EirGrid goes to break ground, the cost of the two options will nearly be on a par. I think Mr. Slye has admitted that himself. He will not say the word "wrong", but that is what is wrong with the thing. EirGrid cannot be wrong.
