Sunday School 3 years, 6 months agoThere are no engineering answers to Does God exist? Do we have free will? Is reality material, mental, or both? What is beauty? What is a just society?
If there were, they would have been solved by now.
Is philosophy dead? Not by a longshot.
BTW, I agree that the American educational system has turned to shit. We have mistaken a hole…[Read more]

@robert So, your “reply” is a cheap shot. You know who makes even more than engineers? Drug lords.Yeah, big deal, that’s illegal. Undergrad soft courses were a kind of a joke.

Maybe we need to stop trying to bring our kind of “democracy” to unsuspecting victims abroad when dictatorship is taking hold at home.

Lomborg is not a fringe nut job proffering hare-brained concepts. He is former director of the Danish government’s Environmental Assessment Institute (EAI) in Copenhagen. He became internationally known for his best-selling and controversial books designed to reduce climate hysteria and offer more cost-effective and practical solutions to…[Read more]

I’m a big proponent of tide power. There are cloudy days and days when the wind doesn’t blow but the tides run like clockwork. Of course, they aren’t steady. There are lull periods between high and low tides, so tidal power would work as a steady source of energy only if part of a far flung geographical and probably multi-nation network.…[Read more]

Probably some of the best and most accurate news nowadays comes from private Ukrainian citizens via social media. So, maybe it’s just as well that traditional journalism is being quashed and/or disinformed by the governments involved. It’s becoming the day of the eyewitness “journalist.”
Russian tanks suffer from more than one design…[Read more]

Sunday School 3 years, 8 months agoFor me, with my rent and food costing more and more, saving money is a major consideration. I make the sort of decisions one on a small income has to make.
Aside from diabetes, I have other health issues and work with several different specialists for vision, cardiac care, podiatric care, a history of intestinal polyps (so far, benign),…[Read more]

Here Dr. John discusses vaccination status in a video that got him a Youtube “Warning.” While he does find it interesting that Dr. Fauci and top Pfizer execs, all of them fully vaccinated and boosted, nevertheless contracted Covid-19. None died or even got seriously ill, but presumably could still transmit the disease. Nowhere does he…[Read more]

Here is Dr. John discussing Ivermectin. What do you object to about his treatment of the medicine? He has a wide following having little to do with “don’t get jabbed.” Just read the comments. I read the first few and found no rabid anti-vaxxers. I suspect a true anti-vaxxer would excoriate him for not drawing their…[Read more]

That Covid came out of a U.S.-run or maybe -financed research lab is a possibility. It’s becoming clear that Covid-19 didn’t occur naturally.
BTW, the Lancet recently issued a report assessing the possible causes of the disease and noted the likelihood of there being an unnatural component in its genome. Unnatural obviously means…[Read more]

If you’re done with semitropical climates and ridiculous weather, consider the Pacific Northwest. I live in Portland, which has its problems, but Eugene and Corvallis are college towns with Eugene having a hippie-esque vibe. Southern Oregon is gorgeous but less developed. Ashland looks a lot like Vermont but no cold winters. Eastern…[Read more]

The amazing thing to me is why Russia—a huge country with lots of resources ranging from fossil fuels to timber to mineral resources including gold and silver—doesn’t have a more powerful economy and why its people aren’t as prosperous as Americans and German.
Russia is in that small handful of major nations that can claim to be, at lea…[Read more]
