Woops! I haven't got this written yet. It seems too easy to think of
things to do. But, I haven't given up hope of finding more
time--Some time!
I used to have a landlord who said: The road to ruin is paved with
good intentions. I don't know who he was quoting, but I suppose he
told me because he thought it was appropriate.
Maybe I should call this an Autobiography?
For the time being I will just include a few facts about me.
I am caucasian with medium complexion, and brown hair
I was born July 6, 1934
I have no brothers or sisters
I have never married, and have no children
I have no religious affiliation
I do not believe in anything not able to be tested by experiment
My main interests and education are in the Sciences: Math, Chemistry & Physics
I wish I knew more about the biological sciences, and Geology
I like the out doors, and enjoyed: Backpacking, SCUBA
At one time I was rather serious about Ice Skating
I tried Sky-Diving and made 30 jumps
I made a living working with Computers--from the time they had vacuum tubes
I am opinionated on about every subject, and often oppose popular opinion
- I oppose Killing. That includes both animals and people
- I have little interest in "Sports"--adults playing kid games
- I don't believe "My Country" is right on all occasions
- We have too many politicians only interested in their gain
- Voting is a farce. Most people don't know anything about the candidates
- Vote Republican or Democrat or waste your vote, both parties are corrupt
- United States Military is the biggest terrorist organization in the world
- The US Government wants to control and dominate every country
- It is logical that the United States is the most hated country in the world
- I believe religion has caused far too many wars
I am pessimistic about the future of intelligent life on earth
- The world is running out of
stored energy
- Technology will not solve this problem. Since man started
using fire, virtually all technology has it roots in releasing stored
energy.
- The US will try to dominate petroleum production
- The world will say the US has already used more than its share
- The US cannot fight the entire world and will be defeated
- 50 to 80 percent of the US population will die due to:
- Lack of heat in the winter
- Lack of cooling in the summer
- Lack of food produced by farming
- Lack of transportation of foods & goods
- Lack of water pumped from wells and lakes
- Anarchy caused by the above will occur within five to ten years
- People in most of the world will do better than those of us in the US
because they are used to using less petroleum
-
Bio fuels are not the answer
- Wind and Solar power are an interesting augment, but so inconsistent
storage is required; realistic amounts storage is not feasible. Pumping
the energy into the grid is only feasible when a lot of the grid power
comes from an energy source that can be turned up and down at will.
- Nuclear Power provides only heat and some electricity, nothing
transportable, hence is worthless for farming, transportation and the
production of chemicals such as fertilizers, plastics, and insecticides.
Further, it would require a huge electrical distribution system. And the
waste problem has no known solution--it would be disastrous.
- The only solution is a drastic reduction in human population
- The only sane way to do this would be a ban on all births for 20
years
- No leaders will have the power or courage to do this
- Nature and starvation will reduce the population
- Nuclear war could do a complete job on all animal life
- The population of the USA just pasted 300 million. World population is past
the point where the energy problem can be solved by conservation.
- A technological solution is a fantasy.
What is your solution?
