[PSUBS-MAILIST] support boat

[Marc de Piolenc via Personal_Submersibles]

Makes a lot of sense. The conventional way to power turbopumps is with 
turbines running on some very dangerous monopropellant - high test 
hydrogen peroxide or nitrogen tetroxide for example. Going electric 
actually eliminates a major hazard. If they can get away with it.
