Nice. And it will continue to get cheaper with advancements in the cell technology. Now, if someone could come up with a super cheap and efficient way to store it...

Tough call (in all seriousness). Allegedly extracting energy from the volcano could reduce the risk of eruption too. Nuclear fission gets a lot of bad press for no good reason. We'd rather burn coal and gas and release the radioactive isotypes from those fuels I guess.

Personally I like watching them. They are relaxing to watch. But if we want clean power, nuclear, hydro and geothermal are still the only games in town. Even solar panels have a toxic waste stream and a less than zero carbon foot print.

The anti windmill crowd says the amount of CO2 released by the concrete, steel and petroleum that it takes to create a windmill will never balance out in the amount of CO2 it saves from the atmosphere. Could be true. His problem is that he hears fragments of factoids and delivers them in a way that it sounds like he is making crap up on the fly. OK, sorry for breaking lent... we have been all pretty well behaved.

Enough said. On Thu, Oct 22, 2020, 9:24 PM Steve Jones <thatoneguyst...@gmail.com> wrote: The moderator tonite is a known leftist trashcan. She was left heavy.

So after the fact I'm looking for punditry, switching between the big 3 (tiny 2 CNN MSNBC and max fox) and it's what I expect from each. Where would I go if I want to watch some serious discussion? Also I dont care who you are, joe is right on daca, and I wish nancy and chuck hadn't brick walled trump on the same thing.
