I don't get these kinds of screeds. I've watched FOX News, and NBC, and CNN, and all the major cable news outlets. All of them are almost exactly the same. They have "News", and they have "Commentary". The "News" is almost all the same stuff on any of them - verbatim. It's funny because you can literally flip

I think those 'blimp' turbines they are testing are supposed to be pretty good too. Not sure how good either of them are at avoiding all the bird puree' the standard type cause...

But this is only an acceptable solution for about 4 months out of the year.

Sigh. So what exactly are the "more realistic" way to trim car size? People buy cars to fill thier transportations NEEDS, and that covers a gamut of things. A lot of people are rather snarkily implying that all anyone needs is a bike, or a moped, or some other tiny thing. Bullcrap. If every person in the US was a

"Wind turbines are so easy and cheap (energy-wise) to build that the benefits of using it vs fossil fuels are a no-brainer"

There is no such thing as "global scientific consensus". Science does not work by consensus. Please stop repeating opinions you hear on teh internets as if they were scientific facts.

"I wonder what the chances are of this research being funded by climate-change denialists?"

Eyeroll. Copy/pasting the quote doesn't get it right enough for you? Boo-hoo. Your ire is more properly directed elsewhither. I got the intention and the context perfectly correct, you simply dislike the fact that it properly and accurately debunks the entire foaming-at-the-mouth Global Warmie movement and thier

"CORRELATION DOES NOT EQUAL CAUSALITY"

"We'll ignore the fact that in Utah it's not weird to discover rudimentary, survivalist forts while wandering around in the woods..."

Interesting, but trees are the #1 MOST RENEWABLE resource on the planet (unless you count grass). I can see tossing the paper back into the paper mill with the wood pulp, but making a product 100% from the stuff? What's the point? Hug a tree, but then cut it down and make something fantastic out of it because you

Wow - I'm literally amazed. This is the FIRST actual valid reason I've heard so far to get an Electric Car. :) That is all kinds of awesome. It still isn't good enough to make me want to pay 54% more for a car, but I likes it.

I think it is far better at showing the comments of left wing Prog-Lib-Dytes and thier willful ignorance and slavish adherence to liberal talking points. Honestly, it defies parody. :)

That's not Fox News. That's just a basic, simple statement about what Obama promised versus what he's actually accomplished.

"The ... Big Oil Cartels have the power ... to push technology to new boundaries within months ... but they are far more interested in their short term profits"

Well, I wasn't arguing that Domestic Oil Production = Cheap Gas Price. I was stating that Obama has not been an "All the Above" president by any stretch of the imagination. That much is pretty conclusive. And I would argue that if the US lifted all the shackles off of domestic oil production it very much would have

To start with, the opinion piece starts with a flawed premise. The Obama administration's policy has not been 'All the Above". That's a line he's desperately been pushing in an effort to staunch his poll numbers from bleeding as gas prices go above $5 bucks a gallon. Obama's policy is more accurately described as a

Hydrogen cells as land-locked, fixed power generation for permenant structures is the only viable use of hydrogen fuel. As of yet though, the process is still massively expensive. Hopefully they will figure something out but, as the article says, this is not new technology. Humans figured out fuel cells over a

This.

We all knew it was as choreographed as a professional wrestling match, but I still liked the duel in Phantom Menace. Honestly speaking, it was about the ONLY thing in that movie I liked at all. Too bad it was chopped up and interspersed with the awful Gungan battle, the awful Anakin space fight, and the awful Throne
