Dr. Keynes Was Right: Thought For The Day

Colombia, Venezuela, Greenland, Canada then the rest!!

The world is not linear.
Smart people vote with their feet. [you betcha]
-- Donald Hughes McElhone, Ph.D.[statistics, Iowa State]/1975

Over the past several years, global reinsurance companies have had what the researchers call a "climate epiphany" and have roughly doubled the rates they charge home insurance providers.
-- Claire Brown, et al/2025 [no NCAR?, and NOAA? de Nile is just a river]

Better A.I. would remember what it learns, just as humans do, and squeeze more work from each watt. Tech companies spend billions of dollars running large language models that don't learn while they run.
-- Carl Benedikt Frey/2025 [sounds like AI/LLM backed by some RDBMS which stores the learning? sound familiar?]

There's not a single example of things working out for the appeaser.
-- Nicolle Wallace/2024 [like this? the next extortion is on the way]

He was awarded a Bronze Star and a Combat Infantryman Badge (CIB), having served in civil-affairs operations and as an adviser in Afghanistan. But let's be clear: Hegseth was not a front-line leader of combat troops under sustained fire. He did not command an infantry company in protracted combat or lead exhausted soldiers through night patrols and firefights.
-- Dick Dowdell/2025 [once again, with anger: drugstore truck driving man]

Effective with the 2026 mid-term elections, military proctors will be stationed at every shithole Blue city polling place, demanding to see a current, valid United States of Alabama passport. No passport, no vote. I am the dictator.

Now that Bone Spur Samurai^© has flexed his flabby muscles on East Coast wind power, might one want to know where the most current wind power is? You'll never guess - Texas. Also solar, just 2^nd. Seems not to be a consistent destroyer of more actually clean electric power. And, of course, clean coal is amongst his biggest lies. Bigger than foreigners pay the tariffs? Toss up.
