I know Bill runs his own server, so maybe he's having hardware problems?

Saw my first $5.00 today.  First of many, unfortunately.   :thumbdown:

And it went to $5.50 in less than a week.   :no:

This was brought to my attention this afternoon.  I don't know how accurate this is, but if it is then I was wrong up above, and I deeply apologize for that.  My ''2 ton'' statement WASN'T EVEN CLOSE.

Is it ethical to purchase a lithium battery powered EV?

Don't get me wrong, if you want to drive an electric car... that's cool.  But if you think you're saving the planet by doing so, you've only heard part of the story.

Hey, does Mr. Starks still sell CDs? Last update was 4 years ago.

How about digital downloads?

Why is it that oil is only a bad thing when we pump it?  Russia, Iran, and the rest of OPEC can pump all they want, and nobody cares.   :thinking:

Now we are going to start buying oil from Venezuela.  I guess Venezuelan oil doesn't cause ''climate change'' the way domestically produced oil does.  :dunno:

Watch interior secretary Deb Halland respond to this query...   :rofl2:

Why is the Weather Channel misleading the public about electric cars and solar panels.  Electric Cars and Solar Panels require more fossil fuel to manufacture than the save.  Solar Panels are an environmental hazard when they are disposed of  in a land fill than you are telling the public.  I believe the Weather Channel is more concerned with ratings than they are with unbiased reporting.   I have lost all the respect I formerly had in the Weather Channel, as have many Americans, especially with dropping the ball on Hurricane Nicholas.

Nearly 2 tons of earth has to be moved in order to mine enough minerals to manufacture ONE battery for an electric vehicle.

Why is it that oil is only a bad thing when we pump it?  Russia, Iran, and the rest of OPEC can pump all they want, and nobody cares.   :thinking:

Coal is a four-letter-word in this country, but China can't burn enough of the stuff.  Again, not a peep.

Makes you wonder.

Very sad indeed.    :(

$4.39 here.  Average price at ALL TIME high.

BTW, the national average was already at an 8-year-high BEFORE Russia invaded Ukraine.

I tune into TWC every day, but 99.9999999% of the time, it is nothing more than background noise; and the constant pushing of the climate change thing is becoming insufferable.

Im not sure.  :dunno:
but its $4 a gallon in Santa Ana, CA. If I recall.

That's what I thought.  That $8.00 figure, if anything, was probably a rogue gas station owner trying to gouge people.   :no:
