Good morning.  So, the Seattle city government has at least admitted that the transit system is collapsing, it has literally become a toxic environment due to fentanyl and meth. However, their response this is a new initiative to make the transit system an “anti-racist mobility agency“. Clown show, doubled-down.

I never eat collie for breakfast.  I think of it is more a dinner menu item.

Good plan!  You could shoot up half the junkies in the city at one time!

I fear democracy more than monarchy, like the Founders, and for the same reason.

U.S. corn-based ethanol worse for the climate than gasoline, study finds

The research, which was funded in part by the National Wildlife Federation and U.S. Department of Energy, found that ethanol is likely at least 24% more carbon-intensive than gasoline due to emissions resulting from land use changes to grow corn, along with processing and combustion.

Of course, if all that corn-based ethanol could be freed up from being wasted as fuel, it could do wonderful things to the price of whiskey.

The reason I said no shit sherlock....

20 year old Cornell article.

Every time you make 1 gallon of ethanol, there is a net energy loss of 54,000 BTU.

I love the Instant Projection in that clip.

The country I admire most is China, because it's a dictatorship.  Also, Stephen Harper wants to be a dictator.
