To follow up on a comment I made a couple/few weeks ago. 4 minutes about Renewable Energy:

Renewable, Expensive, Shortlived, & NOT Recyclable!

PG&E should be paying us to compensate for the irreversible destruction they will load onto
our children’s future by demanding we move to use only Electricity.
(at every opportunity, Vote to dig coal which is now 100% usable, right down to the last carbon molecule~~no waste and no recycling needed!
AND don’t let them get by with selling our oil and gas right out from under US…while making us
build windmills in the ocean!
No. this is not about Politics. Well maybe a little bit. It’s about American survival in a bleeping
EPA crazy world.
That 5.7 earthquake near Silver Springs Nevada was widely felt out here in the Far East (County that is) .
My tribe felt it & ceiling fans wobbled a bit, so I checked USGS website and there it was… + 3 aftershocks (now it’s up to about 36 aftershocks).
Local yokels on Facebook were reporting it too.
Any of you on the other side of the hills feel it?
In past 24 hours 126 earthquakes
USGS website set to the area of quakes
I don’t even feel the ones that are local. The last quake I felt was in 1989. Whether I’m keeping busy, living on solid foundation, sleeping through them, or they just don’t phase me, something is going on. I really do live in the Bay Area…
Just got around to reading “Whatever”.
Didn’t feel it in Clayton, but my kid in Reno sure did. Sent an email with the link to the USGS site. 5.7 is a pretty sizable shake.
IF speed violation cameras are ever installed in Claycord area.
WE GOTTA try THIS . . . . . .
