Report: No "Global Warming" for 325 Months...

[Expat]

Next thing you know, the guy will be claiming there has been global warming on other planets in our solar system as well... pfft, silly wabbit.

 

[Cygnus]

I present to you a moral dilemma facing the earth first crowd the like of which they've never seen or pondered......

Polar bear eating a dolphin.

C'Mon. You know that polar bear was in the water swimming between shrinking ice flows when that doplhin swam right into that polar bear's grasp while it was fleeing Japanses whaling boats powered by dirty deisal...

 

[IndyDave1776]

Because gender background checking our global abortion warming healthcare is central to legalizing medicinal gay immigration common core standards... or something.

Just roll all the platforms into one.

Gender equality is central to effective climate action. It's time our policies reflect that

Absolutely! It makes just as much sense as saying that providing free nachos at the post office is critical to national security.

 

[Mr Evilwrench]

I'm gonna need to look up dolphin recipes. Huggers have probably made it hard to get, though.

Ah, yes I forgot. That's just nature and man is not part of nature.

 

[Joe G]

Did someone mention free nachos?

 

[LockStocksAndBarrel]

Did someone mention free nachos?

I'm IN!

On Renewable Energy (U of L Conn Prize Winner: Renewable Energy a Question of 'Political and Social Will' - 89.3 WFPL), I have no idea what a "Flow Battery" is or what Lockheed Martin is doing with it, but I'm checking on it. He's right you know, storage of wind and solar (or whatever your favorite picky energy building device is) energy is the problem. There is NO current method for effectively and efficiently storing energy on the grid.

If only there was a cheap and efficient ready technology for cleanly producing electricity (other than nuclear because...you know...it's like bad and stuff).

 

[JeremiahJohnson]

Hush, you!

You keep shushing me! Is my Kentucky accent getting annoying again? I've been told a southern accent automatically makes one stupid.

Not entirely sure how the catholyte and anolyte are made/"recharged", but this is the basic concept:

 

[JeremiahJohnson]

OK, just talked to one of the fuel cell geniuses and he dumbed it down for me. The Catholyte and Anolyte are "recharged" from their v-4 to v-5 or V-3 to V-2 states during the times when renewable power is "on". In other words the aqueous systems are flowing one way to release energy, flowing the other way to absorb or collect energy.

Problem is - as with all load leveling methods - volumetric energy density. How big are the tanks for grid load leveling? Can't find those numbers yet.

Another reason why nuclear is bad is that it can provide as much power as is needed when it's needed. Oh, wait, that's . . .

Perhaps your Kentucky nature led you to being a science denier.

Those details don't matter. We need to stop using what works now for no legitimate reason because that stuff might just work someday in the future.

Hush You!!

 

[JeremiahJohnson]

There's your problem with nuclear - see! All that pollution coming out the top - that has to stop!

I've actually heard that one. My answer,

"You know that's steam, right?"

.....uh.....

NUCLEAR STEAM!!

Just tell them that's how clouds are manufactured so that we can have rain.

Wait, why would you Denny the moment so soon? You know how much fun you could have with that?

****, that's not steam, it's special nuclear brain atomizers spewing into the air, designed by biochemists at the behest of advertising firms. It alters brain wave patterns to make people especially susceptible to otherwise absurd suggestions. Why else would those stupid infomercials work? You bought the Ginsu knife set, right? See? It works.

It's dihydro oxygen GAS! And it's one of the most powerful greenhouse gases known to mankind! And clearly deadly.

Well, actually it's not even steam. It's water droplets condensed from the steam as it mixes with the cool air.

But you knew that.

Liquid dihydro oxygen (or oxygen dihydride) must be super deadly too.

Would someone PLEASE think of the children???!!! (in that special whine at the exact resonant frequency of my spleen).
