  1. I am sooo tired of the greenies (or more likely watermelons: you know: environmental green on the outside, communist red on the inside…. didn’t want any confusion with that term)

    They’re going to take my livelihood away to fix a problem that isn’t there. Internal combustion reciprocating engines are no longer politically correct, and the fake world of politics is going to command the real world of thermodynamics to bend to its will. It won’t, but the economic chaos that will result will affect everyone who didn’t want it to happen.

    I still don’t understand how people who have no scientific background are trying to mandate intermittent energy sources over on-demand sources, without expansion of all available sources.

    I guess I’ll undergo my 15th-20th career change sometime in my late fifties as a windmill repairman, trying to drag my aged carcass up a 300 foot tall windmill.

    At least my widow might survive on what’s left of our retirement, after I fall of one of those.

  2. the fake world of politics is going to command the real world of thermodynamics to bend to its will.

    That, in conjunction with the view that the downsides of technological progress somehow outweigh the upsides (this attitude coming from people whose great great great grandparents probably wouldn’t have been around if not for the Industrial Revolution…), is really what the whole thing is all about.

    You scratch anyone with an agenda for radical change, and you’re going to find a reactionary who is so frightened of real change that he cannot help but hate it with the heat of a thousand suns.
