   All of us need to focus on who we are, rather than who we were.

   Europeans need to be the people who will not continue the centuries of abuse, repression and cultural slaughter.

   I would not try to say what kind of people the Native Americans should be, that is not my place.

   Laugh, sorry, I thought that they were flying shrimp at first glance.

   I know that the idea of a toilet in your house scares you, Ellie. But don’t blame Joe Biden for you “issues”.

   Required? I don’t think so.

   I have a toilet in my house, but I don’t think that I sm required to have one.

   But god help me if I try to sell my house without at least a toilet, sink and shower.

   I believe that one day soon prospective home owners will be expecting homes to have solar or wind.

   They will find something else to control. Water is my guess. Production of food.

   Why rely on memory? Have you actually READ the book or SEEN the pictures with your own eyes?

   Many of the pictures people object to are done in a style representing Ancient Greek art.

   This book was BANNED not because it was read, but because of what someone REMEMBERED someone else saying.

   It is available FREE, right now, on Kindle Unlimited. Enjoy.

   What do you call it then? Outlawed? Prohibited? Suppressed? Forbidden? Are any of those better for you?

   What do you call it when I tell you, “Your book is inappropriate, it does not belong in our schools or libraries!”

   Who gets to decide when something is obscene? Fifty years ago some would have considered a marriage between a black man and a white woman as being obscene. Now we have a Supreme Court judge in such a marriage.

   When a decision is made to prevent a book from being on the school library shelves that book is BANNED. What else would you call it?

   You’re playing at semantics here. If you’re going to ban a book, have the balls to stand up for what it is you did. If you’re going to ban books, Leo, do it loud and proud. I might agree with you. Don’t be a puss about it.

   How about this? How about we sit down and decide, what SYSTEM best serves our energy needs for now and in the future? Let’s think about it like grown ups.

   I’m going to start with using words like “clean, efficient and renewable”. Why? Because they are better words than “dirty, inefficient and finite.”

   We can use a word I know you’ll like. “Cheap”. Inexpensive, if you prefer. I’m all for inexpensive. But when we talk about inexpensive I want to make sure that we’re not just talking about NOW, I want to make sure that we’re taking the long view here. And let’s remember, twenty cents a gallon was considered cheap when I was a kid. Now I’m willing to call three bucks a gallon cheap. And that gasoline is the result of a dirty, filthy, expensive process.

   I always wonder, why do energy sources like solar, wind and geothermal scare you so?

   Listen. I look at the world, I see problems. Problems which one day may came home to America.

   Look at Palestine and Ukraine. Sitting in the dark. Cold. Cut off from the world.

   I have a 13 acres. We have a well and a septic tank. There is my water. We have a rig of 40 solar panels. There is my juice.

   What do I need? A decent battery to store my juice. And the first time one comes on the market I trust, I will buy it.

   I’m not a doomsday prepper, not really. But I want to make sure I’m not sitting in the dark, cold and thirsty, when the sh!t does hit the fan.

   Our electrical grid is out of date. Instead of one huge grid we need a network of independent grids which can function autonomously when and if the main grid goes out. My 40 panels support that type of grid.

   The Panther was rushed on to the battle field because of war. We are not at war. I understand your point, but people would trust new technology more if we gave them a better product.

   The problem is CAPITALISM, this time. not war. The product must make a profit or it won’t be marketed. Under capitalism there is no drive for innovation. No one wants to take a risk like the Battle of Kursk.

   We need HEAVY government investment and support if we are going to get the product we need at a price people can afford.

    Somewhere, in a medium to large Chinese city, a newspaper is publishing an oped cartoon created by “Ramirez-Lee”.
