    NYT on Water access in the West (the saga continues!)

    “The real Western fishing experience will get better as soon as I win my lawsuit.” This and the "corner crossing" case are biggies. 83 million acres of public land in limbo over corner-crossing

    SFR Man with a plan for a better future!

    Wait. Without private jets how would your betters travel the globe to lecture you about the evils of fossil fuel? Or attend a polo match in Aspen?

    SFR Man with a plan for a better future!

    While solar is a great renewable energy source it requires some power storage for most practical applications. Therein lies the issues. Lithium-ion batteries are expensive, terrible for the environment, non-recyclable, and subject to geo-political forces. However, lots of promising research...

    The Real Mileage of an Electric Truck

    The Real Mileage of an Electric Truck

    NFL 2022 Season

    That was such a sleaze move. The NFL should annualize his earnings so the loss of income actually means something. I am sure the NFLPA wouldn't go for it though.
