Ramp-up to inquiry on Alison Canyon gas leak
And, stop concentrating and begin again to disperse. This is survival economics, not "finance."— February 5, 2016 4:28 p.m.
Ramp-up to inquiry on Alison Canyon gas leak
No, but we could take all the cow and pigshit and digest it, simultaneously reducing pollution, methane release, and the cost of energy. But most importantly, we need to come to understand the concept of homeostasis. If we did, we would go to war, if necessary, to stop the destruction of forests that keep the carbon CYCLE going. In other words, "sustainable" needs to be discarded as a buzz word and reinstated as a serious intellectual and real process.— February 5, 2016 4:24 p.m.
Ramp-up to inquiry on Alison Canyon gas leak
Culture IS a failure. Because we are more and more cultural and less and less social. Culture has a terminal velocity. Social behavior has inherent limitations on power.— February 5, 2016 4:18 p.m.
Ramp-up to inquiry on Alison Canyon gas leak
My global-warming professor friends believe that we should be-LIEVE! Anyone who purports to be a scientist should be willing to do a little arithmetic, like figuring out how much fossil energy it takes to produce a unit of non-fossil energy. Back in the last millennium, some were talking about "net energy calculations." Where does corn stand in these terms? For example, fertilizer, fuel, manufacturing, storage, transport, ad infinitum.— February 5, 2016 4:15 p.m.
Sempra Energy, Pacific Gas & Electric, Edison overspend with impunity
Cap'n Dee has gotta be a "Deep-Throat." I hope he or she doesn't get exposed and burned at the stake. This is real SUBSTANCE!— February 5, 2016 4:05 p.m.
Dean Spanos takes TV test, flunks
Either write is or get a good ghost to turn it out in three months.— February 5, 2016 4:02 p.m.
Oh, Mother's, what have you done?
Our legal system just can't get its head around social justice, as in punishing bad (asocial) behavior as a deterrent to continuing to do something one knows is bad, that will eventually cause misery and death, but doesn't give a damn as long as the activity makes money. In some parallel universe, let's say, bullets travel at one milimeter per year, and you head is, say, twenty millimeters away. So it will be at least twenty years before a crime begins to be committed, and at least another twenty before it kills you.— February 5, 2016 3:59 p.m.
You call yourself a football fan?
Before culture, aggression was largely self-limiting. After culture, aggression grew into blood feuds, which persist to this day. There was a time when men were admired and admired themselves for their strength and courage. Now they admire themselves for their asocial behavior (see the Big Pharma kid), brutality, and cruelty. It that's the new "man," you can have 'em.— February 5, 2016 3:48 p.m.
Spanos commits!
I don't see how the oil-on-canvas visages behind the curtain could be any more horrible, but if you can find 'em, knife 'e where their hearts should be if they had any. Was your name Oscar before you changed it to Don?— February 4, 2016 9:56 p.m.
