I have to admit I found this very interesting, but the question that popped into my head was —— How much does the electricity cost to produce the flame? Is it cost effective? Or is it a boondoggle like ethanol is? Ethanol cost $1.25 to produce $1.00 worth of energy —— not too smart.

Aaron is making real progress in his move back down to the basement. I suspect it will go a little slower when it comes to cleaning out the room he is leaving.
I watched a little of what they call “news” last evening. Really weird. I was expecting we would be hearing about the wars and the health care debacle —— but No —— Sarah Palin, that stupid false arrest and the ridiculous crusade of the GOP wingnuts about Obama being born in Kenya or some such nonsense.
This birther thing (what a weird word to invent?) is so intense that GOP politicians are so scared of the wingnuts they can’t even bring themselves to admit Obama was born in America. It is almost as if Washington has turned into some weird comedy show.

That whole bit about Obama not being a natural born citizen is just insane. It doesn’t even matter if he WAS born in Kenya! His mother was born here and never renounced her citizenship, therefor no matter where he was born, he was a natural born citizen of the United States. People are stupid.

I agree —— It just seems to me with all the trouble in the land we could find more important issues on the news.
