Yeah, saw your bike.

Moybin as you know water is a big issue here and will keep getting bigger as more move West and the climates change.

I think you know my attitude about too many people.

The thing I can't get over is the attitude about that pumped power station. Like Frank Lloyd Wright supposed to be summoned from the grave to design it! I thought it looked good, but I've been looking at corn silos for 20 years.

And what's up with the attitude about pumped power storage? Here in the midwest they would love to have enough vertical elevation to make that work.

I guess you can't make some people happy, even if you threaten them with a gun. They'd complain the gun was too small, or dirty, or not American made. B!tch? I don't b!tch! My mother b!tches!

Yeah, the post was a little too cranked for the forum. I'm trying to cut back on my flaming, as it aggravates the manic-depression (no kidding here).

Luddites, saboteurs - which comes from people throwing their wooden shoes (sabots) into the old mill machines - lots of neat words out there for narrow minded, tech-fearing and tech-foolish people. (The forum spell checker doesn't know 'Luddites')

Biggest problem is remembering all the neat words and what they mean, when you don't use them every day.
