Theorem 3. There exists
It isn't clear it is the wrong call? The public health measures have been
ineffective (contact tracing) or unpopular. And by the time people are in
hospitals, if they are unvaccinated, it's just a crowded place for them to die.

Well, from Renee's perspective, it's the wrong call ... not for the patients,
but for the burnout. She's worked 9 12-hour shifts and 1 14-hour shift in the
last 11 days, after only 1 day off. The previous streak was an 8 consecutive

Steve,
In the Bay Area, and in other places there is a trend toward electrification.
It sounds plausible on the surface, but to go all the way means solar for water
and for electricity. Most houses within financial reach for most people don't
have the square footage to support all that. Con
In California there is a movement (ballot initiative I think) that will
basically put the billion dollar rooftop solar industry out of business by
giving public utilities exclusive rights for green power in the form of wind
farms and large solar arrays. Keeps the inefficient distribution grid t

I can't help but wonder if electric ships run down any differently. Oh, and the

I read quite a bit of existential-threat/remediation non-fiction as
well, and sometimes it is hard to tell the difference because while the
non-fiction (technical) is generally accurate to the details, it is
always describing "a spherical cow", thus the "plausable on the surface"
