On Climate Change, changing their mind: "The blunt truth about the politics of climate change is that no country will want to sacrifice its economy in order to meet this challenge." Never mistake a strong sense of environmental ethics for a weak sense of economics.

Artificial Tornadoes as alternative energy source: A Roaring Success?

Tallest Building and Earthquakes: No solid foundation can support the lofty ambition of men.

Teenage rabblerousers: You see them loitering on the street, with baggy pants and gangster hat. Get rid of them by using a device that emits a high frequency people over age 20 cannot hear (and I cannot hear at all).

North Carolina and Diebold: The state has passed a law requiring open source election software. Diebold refuses, as usual, possibly because it disenfranchises some voters that don't vote Republican. I hope California will do the same and pass a law requiring any e-voting software be open source. No software can be so simple as to count the votes and verify their validity, yet so crucial to being secure, safe, trustworthy and open to the public.

It's the same as that ballot box, where some people designed it to hold some fraudulent votes underneath. If people can't look inside the box, they will never know that there are frauds in the air.
