Ethanol Surprise
06-05-2009
•
arclein
Ricardo, an international automotive engineering design firm, has designed a technology that allows engines powered by ethanol to approach levels of efficiency hitherto only afforded to diesel engines, wiping the floor with poor gasoline engine efficiency. It's called by it's acronym "EBDI" or ethanol boosted direct injection. The thing about ethanol is that it has subtly different properties to gasoline, which manufacturers have been slow to exploit. For example, it is a higher octane fuel, and has a higher heat of vapourisation.

THIS CIVILIZATION CANNOT CONTINUE ON ITS CURRENT UNSUSTAINABLE PATH

Frosty Wooldridge
Let
me repeat Clugston’s words, “…not sustainable.” California cannot sustain its own addition of 1,700 people and 400 vehicles
added to that state"daily! It cannot
sustain its projected added 20 million people. It does not possess enough water today! The USA cannot continue adding 3.1 million annually, net gain, on its
way to adding 100 million in 26 years.

Obama Administration Targets Environmental and Animal Rights Activists as Eco-Terrorists
Stephen Lendman
What began under George Bush continues under Barack Obama -
targeting dedicated activists with "one of today's most serious
domestic terrorism threats," according former FBI Deputy Assistant
Director of Counterterrorism John Lewis before a Senate panel in May
2005. Called "eco-terrorism," it grew out of the 2001 USA Patriot Act
that created the federal crime of "domestic terrorism" and applied it
to US citizens as well as aliens.

Nonexistent Stimulus

arclein
There are signs that the economy might be recovering. This optimism may turn out to be unfounded. Or it may turn out to be justified. But the reason I mention that only $36 billion of the stimulus has been spent in the first 3+ months since the stimulus bill passed is to remind people that we were told that we needed to spend $787 billion urgently without discussion or thought to save the economy and that the reason it would work was because It"and "it" is the spending of this enormous sum of money"would create jobs. It would create jobs by stimulating aggregate demand in the face of a slump in consumer spending. If indeed the economy does recover"the so-called V shaped recovery, then it cannot be via this increase in aggregate demand caused by government spending.
