But photosynthesis mainly produces carbohydrates which are meant to be burned. Producing carbon nanotubes directly would let us mimic more of the plant's cell-building mechanisms -- using the energy to build stuff and potentially produce net energy without burning any of the carbon compounds.

Reminds me of a joke where some guys sit in a sauna and one of them receives a fax. You can imagine where it comes out... The Butt Plug? That certainly has a wow factor.
