Re: A Different View Of Economics

You have to remember that the idiots running central banks are neo-Kensenians for whom the very thought of even modest deflation is horridly terrifying. People running constant budget deficits are also terrified of deflation, for more reason. The people pushing minimum wage are equally clueless. Pe...

Re: Eric Cantor Loses To TEA Party Libertarian

The Right is supposed to be the guardian of history. I'm not seeing it. Left and right (of today), both have no confidence in freedom and believe people are incapable of living without a caretaker. Somebody, then, has to take on the duty of being the farmer - caretaker... for a cut off the top. Pur...

Re: Okla Goes After Marine Drug Loon

In every place legalization was done medical was the stalking horse. I think Trump is going with what sells. About 80% favor medical cannabis. Among voters in the places it has been tested support for medical runs about 55%. It will also be an attractant to some Bernie fans. Hillary is in the "it ne...

Re: New Polywell Article On HotGas

@ladajo My apologies. Now (having actually read through the article) I see your point. (Shoulda done that first . . . rats!) It is a relatively non technical article for the general public. Lots of people who had never heard of Polywell were introduced. EMC2 was linked and it was noted that they ne...

Re: New Polywell Article On HotGas

[quote="ladajo"][/quote] I got paid to be an engineer. I had the title of engineer. I did engineering work. Was I an engineer? Well certainly not a PE. But most engineers are not PE. But if credentialism is a big deal with you you can always ignore me. In fact I'd prefer it. I do get your point. I'm...

Re: New Polywell Article On HotGas

Hi Mike, nice to see you around. You really should stop telling folks you are an engineer, when you don't have the credentials. It would be more appropriate to say you worked in aerospace electronics engineering. You might even make claim to being an engineering technician, although that too now ha...

Here you go Simon. An area where I happen to agree with you. I'd like to keep that from going on for too long so: People in chronic pain chronically take pain relievers . According to Dr. Lonny Shavelson 70% of female heroin users were sexually abused in childhood . – So the pain is PTSD. When the ...
