Global warming.

I give it some thought. The folks I solicit work from (land owners -- folks with trees) appear to give it much more thought than I -- only because its in vogue locally that and politician bashing (either side). As far as I can see Global Warming and the threat of it accelerating has changed nothing. I'd expect emissions suspected of causing GW are rising and will continue to do so for generations.

Acid rain use to make me madder than all heck. About the same time I was irked about my folks cigarette addiction, ended up killing one of them at the age of 57. When I take some time to fish I wonder what it may have been like when the salmon were in the river. I'm not sure when they vanished from the CT river but its been a while now(generations).

So from my tree stump its my opinion that man has proven that he has the ability to change the planets environment. The thought I have at the moment is --are todays doomsday chicken little GW awareness advocates the equivalent of yesterdays anti-cigarette campaigners? If you have a 1-3 pack a day habit think about quitting. If it turns out the writing was on the wall and we failed to act out of pride or ignorance it won't be me picking up the tab but my kids and there offspring.

Having said that moving forward I'm voting for anyone that reduces my taxes and decreases my overall insurance premiums. If that person happens to have a plan for GW so be it. I'll run bio-diesel( eco-friendly??) if available and I'll use mass-transit if available both are not in my neck of the woods so its a mute point. We already use the crappy energy saving bulbs,grow the victory garden and recycle as much as possible.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
