I believe that the number 180,000 is low because of the regular presence of Tourists and Students. A more accurate number is 300,000 in the KILL ZONE.

This alkylation technology was actually developed by Chevron and is being marketed by Honeywell UOP, but that doesn't alter the validity of what LaDuke says here. There are other such processes available such as this one: https://www.wellresources.ca/ionikylation. It's also worth noting that refineries using HF alkylation have to ship in large amounts of HF so there are the hazards associated with that. Shutting this unit down would be a good move.

I am a physician who had an adverse reaction to the flu vaccine. I researched the vaccine extensively after that and I no longer recommend this vaccine. It’s a shame that we put profits over patients well being. We saw this before with opiates and HRT for post menopausal women.

Article South Shore mud walk

That beach is getting pretty muddy. The clay banks are pretty much into the river. As for morrison creek, some guy in Arizona owns 1 acre right near the end of it. From the online records, it would seem the lot line crosses the river right where the ice sticks out on the right side in the above pic of the river. (about 80% of the lot seems to be West of the river). Would be an interesting place to build a small shack for a real "out of the way" place for some R&R, but pretty much impossible to get any supplies there other than by boat.

Article David Brooks is Wrong, Will Rogers had it Right

How dare you use 'eminently reasonable' to describe the war monger neocon David Brooks. BTW, the word Elitist Democrats haven't learned a thing. Trump 2020.

Article David Brooks is Wrong, Will Rogers had it Right

Times have passed you by Harry, you're head's not in the right game. Today the fight is not between democrats and republicans, as much as it's between national sovereignty (populism) and globalism. The GOP has been remade. The Democrat rush away from Sanders is not as much away from socialism as it is toward globalism. Sanders is a populist. Watch THIS. It will help you reframe modern politics: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIgmfpHBiDw

Article David Brooks is Wrong, Will Rogers had it Right

HI JP.

This is the first time I’ve checked comments in a long time. Glad you are still following me and offering critiques.

I like Brooks well enough but even he is a little too beholden to establishment Republicans for my taste. Its an establishment I’m none too impressed with myself. They caved to a pretty hideous mouth because despite their eagerness wage war they have proven spineless in the face of Trump’s outrages.

As you noted times may have passed me by. But I stand by the kind of Republicans my parents and grand parents were. Ironically, after my grandfather’s rush to fight in what he later came to regard as Wilson’s War (in his view Democrats could always be counted on to drag us into one) he too turned to isolationism. Or, in your terms “non globalism” although that would be a term for the future.

The Republican party you disparage has become Woodrow Wilson’s party sticking its nose into other people’s wars and making them ours. My Grandfather would agree with you. We’ve screwed up way too many times from Vietnam to damn near everything involved with the Middle East. But my Grandfather was part of the problem. During Vietnam he still stuck by the mantra of standing by his country……He was mystified by war protesters. And LBJ and Nixon both lived in fear that they would be accused of losing the first war in America’s history if they didn’t stick Vietnam out.

Sanders is not being beaten up by Trump for being a globalist. Trump will treat him as a boogeyman for socialism in large part because Bernie is a populist and Trump’s supporters are inclined to like Bernie. As for moderate Democrats they worry that Sanders socialism, not his populism, is what will get him beat by Trump. I think they are right to worry about that. At least when Bernie tells it like it is – its true! The same can’t be said of Donald.

I am glad you directed me to Farage’s little departure speech to the EU Parliament. It was quite good and even, despite the flag waving, cordial in victory. He is a smug bastard though. And I think the British will come to see that the EU with all its bureaucracy was a good place to hang out.

I don’t need to re-frame my view of modern politics so much as most people need to read a little more history. The context of today isn’t just a decade in the making. It goes back stone axes.

OK BoOmer, thanks for the reply, but I think you have it Bass Ackwards. Did you know that your fellow neocon, Bill Kristol joined the democrat party? He apparently likes to be back among the globalists. I'm stating that the current democrat party of Obama, Biden, and yes, both Schumer and Pelosi, the old guard, are the globalists. Sanders is hardly a globalist, he's America first, Americans first. He truly has a desire to work for the people. Now unless you're subscribing to some list that gives you all the anti-Sanders talking points, I'm not sure where you get your Trump vs. Sanders info from. I'd choose Sanders over Biden and co, simply because he seems to listen to the American people. Here's another good article if you have the time: https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2020/02/03/we_need_smith_--_now_more_than_ever_142299.html p.s. it's a good club (europe), until they try to make you govern your people to suite THEIR needs, then they're just another layer of government, one that doesn't even pretend to be accountable to the people. If you support that, then I have to ask - is hating democracy something they taught you in Boomer 101?

Article Whatever Happened To Wendell Berry’s Adage About…

Sorry but it might be too late to address inequality when the ability to produce money has been controlled by a handful of bankers outside the reach of government since 1913. Anyone with ability, time, and resources can produce wealth. The government has given up its power of defending individual rights when it gave the Federal reserve the power to print as much money as it wanted to regardless of representation of capital or wealth. Gold has inherent value not only because it's rare but it takes approximately the same human effort to produce as something you would buy with it. On the other hand, paper money is highly unstable and unless everyone is a math wiz they will get robbed through debt and compound interest

A Moka pot is not capable of creating the needed pressure to make an espresso. At most you can get 2 bars of pressure. An espresso requires 9 bars. Wikipedia clearly defines what an espresso is and what is it takes to make one.
