Man-made climate change is happening. It will cause disruptions, especially with agriculture. It will cause economic problems. What people should be asking is this: do we want the same idiots who bungled the Covid-19 crisis coming up with "solutions" to this? My answer is...

I absolutely oppose nuclear power. There is no safe way to get rid of the waste, it still makes us dependent on corporations (I'm old enough to remember how we were promised that if we went nuclear no one would even have to pay for electricity), they are terrorist bait, and quite frankly the way...

The idea of getting rid of fossil fuel is a good one. Problem is once again idiots are going about it wrong. I work and drive for farmers so I know there is no way they can afford to go and switch over overnight, and since they are Mennonites they are not keen on government programs. Most...

Point is, with the "conventional" set-up absolutely within reach now- in my case that 450W 12V solar array and a small electricity-producing windmill (roughly 3'), I will have light, refrigeration, and running water. I have a crank-up radio as well, had it since 2000. I also have a wood stove...

We don't need nuclear plants now, in this increasingly incompetent dystopia. I'll likely fail, but what we should want is for EVERY household to have its own power source. Hence my energy experiments. Incomplete as they are, crude as they have been due to severe money problems, they have...

Again, global warming as they incorrectly call it, is a problem- I just don't want know-nothing government types shoving their "solutions" down our throats since it will be sheer stupidity and only make everything worse ("gee let's exclude Russia, India, and China from the treaty!"). The way...

Not to mention the slave labor involved.

Sure, nature can compensate for things like extra CO2 caused by man. But we sure ain't going to like HOW it will compensate. The ironic part is that in dealing with this problem we can become more energy-independent- NOT with nuclear power or the like- I mean each home having its own power...

Planning cities with more greenery is one way to go. Solar works, but granted my panels were bought on sale used from e-Bay. 450W maximum, I set it up myself on an old C-band satellite dish post in the back so you can angle and spin the array (six panels) around during the year, and all they do...

As I've said, don't count on governments getting much right these days.

Imbalance literally. Imagine a wheel- on one side a pipe horizontal, on the other it is hinged and is just hanging. The pipes are the same but the wheel will turn towards the horizontal side. Nobody knows for certain what makes "free energy" devices work, just as they do not know why matter...

Look, when I can I'll start with the "toroid ring" model as it seems the easiest to do and I have must of what I need already- a trip to Lowe's when I have the money and I'll give it a try. Then the "tri-toroid" transformer model. Again, simple enough to do. Then a "gravity motor." Same thing...

After almost four DECADES that solar strip still works just fine. And that calculator has taken a beating over the years.

So they have you over a...barrel? (Rimshot)

Well, I have a little calculator from 1984 which uses a small solar strip. No battery. It works as well as ever.

I will grant that free energy devices must be practical. It must not be difficult to build, must use relatively easy to come by parts, and must put out enough net energy to be useful. For a single person with one dog like me 200 Watts (12V base) constant would supply enough for light, a small...

"Free Energy" devices do exist. We are awash in energy everywhere, and all "free energy" devices do is to tap into it. If I went back in time and told Duke Snootysnuff that with one yank of the cord I could mow his entire front lawn he'd have me laughed out before burning me at the stake for...

The treaty Trump would not sign exempted China, India, and Russia. Had it gone through it may well have been the loophole to allow them to continue on for decades while Western nations get over-regulated by people who know nothing about environmental science (thus making everything WORSE). I'm...

Man-made climate change is a fact. It will cause serious disruptions. What one SHOULD be worried about is just who intends to deal with this and how. I don't care what anyone thinks about vaccines, Trump, Biden, whatever- only someone with his head stuck in the sand can possibly deny that the...
