Semi OT Latestbunch of idiots.

[Rob Morley]

I think they still have night in foreignland.

I wonder every time I drive past that big one at Reading Green Park. It rather looks as if it is entirely surrounded, and quite closely, by offices.

[bert]

I hear this July has not been the sunniest for the last 100 years - only the 2nd sunniest, proof positive that climate change isn't happening.

[harryagain]

Yes. And then what shit fer brains?

[harryagain]

They are to install 41Gwp as a first step.. Your dementia troubling you again?

[harryagain]

Because there is the added expense of where to put them. Private individuals can put them on their roof which takes up no space. In desert countries they go in the desert. Private PV on your roof schemes have been on the go in Australia for years.

But British gas will put them on your roof if you like.

They were running rent-a-roof schems in the past, dunno if they are still.

There is a strong correlation between intensity of insolation and energy usage for A/C in countries like Saudi. Solar might make a bit more sense because of that.

The most obvious thing would to be dump it in a deep ocean subduction zone and renew the earths cores heating. However people like you would object in case it came up through a volcano the other side of the planet in a million years or so.

[The Natural Philosopher]

says who? The consultant who wrote the wiki article? The same one who wrote the puff piece in wiki - which I think has now gone - on the 'hydrogen economy' that never happened either?

And then you will clearly fail to understand what you have read and continue to repeat your lies.

[Steve Firth]

The detail in the Caithness report leads me to think that these turbines should not be permitted with a mile of a road or house. I objected to the offshore arrays because they are a hazard to navigation but was ignored as were all protestors. I recall a recent BBC news report that indicated that the offshore structures have a worrying, largely unreported, death rate. Working at height, transferring from small boats - activities that are inherently risky.

[Tim Streater]

Ha. "Yes. And then what shit fer brains?" was definitely an incisive, well thought-out, killer argument that completely demolishes, world-wide and for ever, any notion that vitrification is the answer to the waste problem.

TNP, Steve, Nightjar, and various others including me should go and live in a field and eat worms.

[John Williamson]

There's nothing wrong with eating worms, they give you lovely shiny plumage. That's what my local blackbird finds, anyway. He even gets his exercise pulling them out of the lawn.

[Nightjar]

I could probably do a lot better than worms. I learnt a great deal about self-sufficiency in my hippie days.

[harryagain]

You get ever more barmy. What do you think an ocean subduction zone is like ? Some sort of letterbox you just shove parcels in?

[harryagain]

What I have read is that there is no solution. From people with some knowledge that is.

[harryagain]

You may as well. I have shown you links clearly outlining the (insolutble so far) problems of nuclear waste disposal but you still have this juvenile idea that you just dig a hole and bury it. Instead you believe what you wish was true. Well the real world isn't like that. So shit fer brains about sums you up.

[harryagain]

Well canabis has a permanent effect on the mental faculties so you at least have some excuse.

[harryagain]

Well you definately are shit for brains. It took me twenty seconds to verify this from elsewhere.

There are fifty more items on similar vein.

You haven't even the wit to check your facts before opening your big mouth. In fact, thinking, you aren't even up to the shit fer brains standard.

[Nightjar]

Oddly enough Harry, some of us never did drugs. We did, however, get heavily involved in what these days would be called green living - energy efficient houses, wind and solar power, rain water harvesting and living off our own land. I know all of the drawbacks.
