As they should..

And if he doesn’t, the Republicans will just put gas prices back on their list of things Obama messed up.

Lawrence Wilkerson says that DoD is in the vanguard of trying to find new fuel solutions, although he says its understandably clear self-interest on the part of the DoD. Nonetheless, they are concerned. Interview:

Anyways I am glad you brought up Tesla, I went to his home in Croatia, found out lots of stuff. Did you know he cut off his balls? He said sex and women would get in the way of his life. He was a real sexist chauvinist pig as judged by women today, a man I can really get behind.

Do a google search for “tesla views on women”, he had a lot of bad things to say about women, their entering the workforce, thier using sex to make mules/slaves of men, etc etc

If you really like Tesla, don’t just do as he said, do as he did, go see a surgeon and have your testacles snipped. ;)

A man so dedicated to science would do nothing less would he? Come on MRW, show us what your made of!!

Give it a rest, Save America. Germany, the uber-renewable fuel nation, is now building 23 new coal-fired power plants to supply needed electricity (they voted to replace all their nuclear after Fukushima) because after two decades solar and wind don’t cut it. Their wind power projects are only producing at 16% capacity and their solar units at even less. Billions of investment for naught. The radioactive waste produced at stage four of the rare earths needed for one turbine is mind-boggling, but purists never consider that, nor see it because we leave that waste in countries other than our own. (Now they want to carve up Northern Quebec for its rare earth deposits. Wait until they see the waste it can produce, and how it will imperil the indigenous peoples’ fishing waters and hunting grounds with the radioactive waste flowing into the Arctic.

Whether you like it or not, oil is still the number one national security issue for the USG (got that straight from Schlesinger). It has nothing to do with supplying oil for cars, or US consumer/business consumption. Military planes don’t fly on solar at night. Neither do ships, tanks, and trucks. Consider the logistics of Afghanistan. We start oil wars to use up or disrupt other country’s supplies before we ever use up our own, and control who has access to it. We opened Prudhoe Bay in Alaska to prevent the Russians from slant-drilling into the field; only reason we did it. Why do you think we’re trying to drain Nigeria and Canada?

Until such time as the USG releases Tesla’s papers from 1942 and we as a society decide that electricity and energy must be free for everyone–or waaaay freer than it is now–there will be no change. We still await that massive change in consciousness, and hysterics like Bill McKibben aren’t helping it with his jejune jolly-jumper climate logic and singular issue…but then he has books to sell. The oil companies buy up all innovative alternative energy inventions and shelve them, or their inventors commit suicide around trees on the way to presenting conferences (as happened to the MI inventor in 1995 who was about to convert my car to plain water fuel). Biofuels are contributing to the starvation in the under-developed worlds and we Americans, wanting to burnish our green credentials, don’t give a damn about that. The price of corn has, what, tripled or quadrupled?

So, develop some perspective on this. There are forces far more entrenched and powerful than you know.
