The curse of nuclear waste…….nowhere to run, nowhere to hide

Carbon this and carbon that and don’t leave any carbon footprints in the sand.

Too much carbon they tell us, climate change is all about carbon and we are to blame.

All those cars and trucks leaving carbon in their wake. So get out of your car and ride a bike or take the bus.

But is carbon really the problem or is it something else, something like oxygen.

Hello, what’s this about oxygen? How could oxygen be a problem?

If you have a shortage of oxygen you most certainly do have a problem. A little hard to breathe without enough oxygen.

Dead zones in the ocean, a shortage of oxygen in the water. And water with a concentration of less than 30% oxygen gets you a whole lot of dead fish.

On top of this the concentration of oxygen in the atmosphere is dropping. And when it gets down to 13% there are going to be a lot of dead people, not to mention all the dogs, cats, horses and cows etc.

Unfortunately our atmosphere is slowly escaping into space. Something most people don’t seem to realize.

The oxygen content of our atmosphere has been dropping for a long time and now stands at just a bit under 20%.

So why are we so wrapped up with carbon and climate change?

Because someone told us we could fix the problem by reducing the carbon content of the atmosphere……..you can? Sure someone told you this, but is it possible to effectively reduce the carbon content of the earth’s atmosphere?

Sure we can improve air quality on a local level and we should, but can we effect the planet’s atmosphere to any measurable degree?  And in turn will this have any effect on climate change?

Even if you do reduce the carbon content a tiny bit you have done nothing to improve the oxygen content……the oxygen content of the atmosphere will still continue to decline.

The total carbon content of our atmosphere is a tiny fraction of 1%, yet it is loudly proclaimed that this is a threat to the health of the planet, but not a word about the declining oxygen content.

Climate change is not something you fix, unless of course you can adjust the energy of the sun and you can’t.

It is a dynamic relationship between the sun and the planets that drives climate and climate change, but this is not an acceptable explanation due to the fact that there is absolutely nothing any of us can do to change such a situation.

Regardless of what we do climate change will continue to revise the condition of our earth’s biosphere.

Electric cars, electric trains, why not electric planes.

The first time I heard Larry King was on a radio feed in 1995 where OJ called in and vowed to dedicate his life to pursuing the real killer.  I was impressed with the guests Larry would get and became a fan.In all of that time up until recently, I never saw a show on Larry King Live on ufo’s.  But in the last six weeks or so he’s done three shows on flying saucers.  And each succeeding show had bolder and bolder headlines suggesting that the US appears to be preparing to make some sort of announcement.  First France then England released their ufo docs, and actually Brazil preceded both countries by releasing their ufo documents earlier.I’m not suggesting anything other than ufo shows are good for ratings but it does appear odd that Larry King did nothing on the subject in my 13 years as a viewer of his program (altho he claims to have done many shows on ufo’s on his radio program prior to CNN).   The shows themselves have been of a very low calibre consisting of a couple of guests who believe touting their latest book and a ufo documentary maker pushing his latest film, plus a skeptic.  These programs have begun in a civilized manner and you get the impression that maybe this time we’ll get some real answers.  But, inevitably, and especially with the skeptic in the mix, the programs have burned up a lot of time vacillating between, are they real, no they’re not, yes they are, all the time we have, goodnight.  These have been programs of questions and no answers as have so many ufo documentaries before.Larry King’s last ufo program just a few days ago was the best of a bad three.  What made it good was Seth Shostak from SETI (search for et intelligence) who rose above the bickering and started to do an act about abductions, dental work and anal probing, none of which he said but did say that there were lots of abduction stories about inappropriate things taking place on a first date.  He was sharp and funny.  And a professional et searcher.The problem of course is that we’re simply rehashing 60 year old Roswell stuff about lights in the sky and the program does NOT ask, how do they work? If the media could just get excited about how gravity control works there could easily be a mounting force to persuade more openness.First he presents the current fate of the airline industry.  Then he does a third ufo show.  So hats off to Larry King for making it globally okay to ask the questions, how do they work, and, can I have a ride?  

It started out with a full-page ad in The Economist magazine challenging the world’s physicists to a duel: Come test our machine, and prove us right or wrong. That was in 2006.

Now July, 2008 and on the last public test, ‘it was the bearings that broke down’.

Some things to remember about Steorn - they were an ad and pr company that got caught in the dot com bust so they wouldn’t be totally unaware of pulling off publicity stunts.

Here are some more recent comments from ZDNet:

Steorn, described by one observer, is a busted flush. The scorn for Steorn is mounting. Others believe they’ll pull through at the eleventh hour or perhaps send a post card all the way from South America.

Whatever the results, it’s been an interesting ride and Steorn is not the first to speak and (almost) demonstrate a magnet motor.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

John Bedini of the Bedini Electronics company is an electrical engineer noted for the invention of the Bedini Audio Spectral Enhancer, an audio signal processor that was used to enhance stereophonic effects in various commercial recordings in the early and mid-1990s. Additionally, on his personal Web site, Bedini has self-published a number of articles related to experimental methods for generating and transmitting electrical energy.

Bedini is one of many engineers who claim to have designed or co-designed[2] machines that do not adhere to the first or second laws of thermodynamics, which relate to conservation of energy. Such inventions are generally considered perpetual motion machines and in principle impossible. Bedini has registered at least one patent for such a device.

The Steorn question for many has been answered with calls of fraud. This has caused Steorn supporters to kick into knee jerk action and so far, they’re standing tough. If it’s a game they’ve probably pushed it as far as it will go. If it’s not, well….
