What's your view on Windfarms and Hydro elcectricty?? That they're great and should be used where locally exploitable. Unfortunately, there is no feasible way for them to power entire nations as electricity is not highly transmittable over long distances, and they are not a 'dense' power source, and they are not high enough in EROEI for generating liquid/gas fuels We could just pack the electricity into 9V batteries. But those things can kill you if you're not careful. |

Interesting rant/viewpoint. I don't profess to understand half of what you're talking about (too many unidentifiable acronyms  ) but I understand the passion behind the words. Of late I find myself screaming at the televised news, so much so my wife thinks I'm certifiable. Why? Mostly 'cause I can't believe the *feces* that's presented day after day, hour after hour. Doom and gloom and then more doom and gloom. For every 10 hours of various degrees of horror, we're treated to one feel good story about some dog saving his/her owner which is supposed to make us all warm and fuzzy. What does all this mean? IMHO, we're overloaded with information. The internets are killing us (maybe chimpyco too). Can I find "good" things to read about? Of course, but you are constantly presented with war, poverty, disease, murder, genocide, inflation, stagflation, recession, and so on and so on......... So, when all this gets too crazy, as it often does, I find the solution is easy. Just get *feces*faced drunk. |

I see the equities markets today have shrugged off Aske's concerns
.....I really didn't think people with that much $ would be dumb enough to buy back in ..... ........... good thing joe moran is an obedient little merkan and just dumps what little he can into his 401k on whatever his 'advisor' tells him too. Sorry for taking bits of the total post but it's for highlighting purpose. 1. People with $ aren't typically dumb. There is a reason they have $. 2. God I'd love to show you my 401(k) over the past 15 years.  And no, I'm not rich. Just a pretty smart middle class person who has utilized his 401(k) very effectively. [constructive criticism] I'll give you my attention for one more post of your treatise before you lose me with the "joe moran" inferences I'm taking away. It comes off as a bit insulting as I read it to mean if I don't 100% agree with you I'm somehow stupid. Or the implication that the knowledge you are sharing is no way known by anyone else in 'merka. There are actually more good, smart people that work for corporations, in the financial world, aske's hate list, than there are idiots. I absolutely know you don't believe it but not everyone outside of your sphere of influence is a criminal, part of an illegal conspiracy or just plain out to *fudge* someone. At least intentionally.  I hope there is more proof and less opinion/allegations coming in the next chapters.  [/cc] |

Please don't take it that way. It's just that it distracts (at least for me) from the points you are trying to make. I hesitated posting that for fear it would come across poorly. I just think your arguments sometimes get lost in some of the rhetoric. |

LMAO. Stay for the outtakes. I can't watch YouTube at work, but I think I know what it is - Cramer telling a caller they should not sell Bear Stearns last week at $80-something a share? Yeah - he's eating some major crow this week |
