Subject: Re: The situation at Fukushima appears to be deteriorating
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.
They already use molten salt for large CSP - -example the Luz project in So
Cal. It is one of the arguments that CSP (Concentrated Solar thermal Power)
has going for it. These plants operate using molten slat as the medium in
any case so storing it off in insulated tanks makes sense. In this manner it
can produce power even at night. On the other hand the peak power demand
curve peaks during the afternoon to early evening time frame - very little
power is actually needed during the middle of the night.
Still waiting for you to respond factually to my deconstruction of your
statements regarding the extinction rate being 10,000 times the background
rate. Or regarding the highly optimistic future energy supply scenarios you
believe in and proposed as being based in fact. Much easier for you to
ignore that and focus on - the alleged invective and "hurt" I caused your
sensitive conservative soul.
I take your silence as a tacit agreement or an inability on your part to
form a cogent response - other than branding me as a Stalinist, which fits
right in with your Tea Party mode of discourse. If you believe it pisses me
off - and that this is good, which makes me gather that therefore this is
your main objective - it kind of reflects back on you and on your motives.
Are you here to piss people off? Or just people who do not buy into your
fanatical and fact free agenda?
Chris
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.

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.
