I understood, what you were going for, but I hit back on old, Chris, because he changed the conversation to invective-which I am ok with. No big deal, but I hit back. Secondly, the nice guys, the progressives world-wide, tend to become more and more oppressive as time goes by. Use a problem like AGW, and make into a reason for making a dictatorship. This is what Stalin did. Thirdly, the progressives worldwide like to cast the Nazi aspersion at conservatives, so rather than waste energy, I counter-punch with the Stalin thing. I am Hitler, they are Stalin. It pisses them off so that is a good, if only for my limbic system. Also, it has a point, which is the government is a god or godwin, as you like it. I think, many times this is a bad, bad, thing, and I'd like to avoid that, if possible.
Being conservative (pragmatic) I look for results. I prefer technology over government and government management (dictatorship). One of the interesting thing we could all reflect on, is the capacity to use molten salt, as an alternative pumped storage, for night and cold winters. Rugged, less expensive, re-usable, and makes solar and wind storable, ahead of batteries, and fuel cells-not that I am against them, being pragmatic. I don't really think you are a Nazi, thank Godwin - but then you should not call disagreers Stalinists, because it is at best a caricature. As were my satirical comments, but I did it intentionally. -----Original Message----- From: LizR <[email protected]> To: everything-list <[email protected]> Sent: Sun, Mar 9, 2014 5:17 pm Subject: Re: The situation at Fukushima appears to be deteriorating On 10 March 2014 01:39, <[email protected]> wrote: Liz, you are doing the same thing, Chris does, which, when confronted with someone who disagrees with their world view, hurls snarky accusations. Actually I was satirising the paragraph of yours I quoted, which mentioned Stalin at least 3 times.
