What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Seafort man, I'm good. PTSD is under control and I've mellowed to near Dude levels. As Ben said the wife and I just went through the restricted course and we're looking at cowboy action shooting. I'll be "El Duderino", The Dude in the 19th Century.
Good to hear from you again, Kendall. :) And that you're doing better, too. :)

Mikey as a guest? good lord, don't even think of trying for a topic. Just let the convo drift... :D

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

As an example of how we fail to stay on topic. This weeks show that we recorded last night was my topic of choice on the green fallacy. How most recycling is useless, the Prius is a joke ect. The whole show kinda turned into us hating on solar and loving nuclear.

But that is on topic; people will go for the "green" option even if it isn't actually the cleanest alternative. :wink:

See I find it fascinating from a technical perspective, it's just foolish to power a society off it.

I find the idea that people want to power the world off it a joke due to the obvious limitations of solar IE night time. But I think it is a nice supliment and good for farmers ect in the right climate.

What's that quote about human stupidity and the universe?

It's like the douchebag at the bar, "I'm supporting the green industry" which is only true if Toyota goes somewhere else with vehicle engines.

Green is a nice color on cars... Oh wait.

The Jaapanese nuclear power plant being hit by that tsunami was pretty much the worst timing possible. The world was just coming round to Nuclear power, now they are shutting down plants acros Europe... where their arnt earthquakes let alone tsunamis.

Yes there are (earthquakes at least) - Italy has had some pretty nasty ones fairly recently.

No Earthquakes In Germnay where they are shutting down the power plants to my knowledge.

While I appreciate the G Whiz on a technical and economical level, I would never ride in one. Its almost as bad as owning a hyundai.
