You're not even from Earth, so how would you know or care otherwise?

Your black hole of insurmountable naysayism is so in denial that it's
fully understandable as to why you'd knowingly work on behalf of the
likes of big energy, or GW Bush or for that matter Hitler.
- Brad Guth -

I was invited to consult with a middle eastern power, to teach them
picosecond electronics for their nuclear weapons program, for big
bucks. And I had the opportunity to sell to a major cigarette
manufacturer. Turned them both down.

And I sold several thousand end-use load survey meters used to analyze
power consumption and temperature data in homes and commercial
buildings. We're engineers here; we do things.

So, tell us about things you've designed lately. Electronics,
preferably, since this is s.e.d.

Multitasking hydraulic applications that includes generating those
pesky electrons.

Geothermal heat exchanging (free for the taking) for better HVAC
performance.

Custom interface for ship's roll stablization and active trim control,
as well as having installed and proof tested to suit public transport
standards.

Loads of boat related electrical and many custom engineered, built and
installed items that automate and/or improve the general safety of
boat/ship usage. I used to design and build custom RF amps and signal
distribution for a wide range of various RF spectrums. I've traced
out complex problems of electrical, electronic and mechanical as
created by others, and in many cases not only fixed but improved.

Unfortunately, unlike yourself, I still don't know everything, nor do
I have to pretend that I do.

I get it. The solar cells have more output when they're closer to the
sun. Good idea.

I wonder if there's a measurable difference in solar influx between,
say, Death Valley and the top of Mount Everest?

Although, you can't put solar panels on top of Everest, if they
get in the way of the LIM mass-driver spacecraft launcher. ;-)

Cheers!

Guth... that's Jewish, right?

Probably either that or Arab - it doesn't really make much difference;
they're both child mutilators.

I imagine being a victim of infantile penile mutilation could give one
a rather sour outlook on life.

More like Mennonite, not that being Jewish is a bad thing.

You'd never get that impression from your writing.

Oh? so, you were a tech rating in the navy? ;-)

Careful with that "common vernacular" stuff - Engineers probably don't
like it very much.

Yeah, I had that once. It was very painful.

Not to mention the winds, which hit 180 mph or something.

Speaking of wind, this is really scairy:

Very good, now imagine if those units were running on William Mook's
efficiently obtained H2,

Willie Mook hasn't made any " efficiently obtained H2 ".

Get back to us when he has OK ? I won't wait up.

You mean that Yids and others of your kind will prevent it. Trust me,
we understand.

You understand jack shit.

BTW, why don't you not like anything William Mook has to say?

I think Willie Mook's ideas are very interesting. I hope it works out well for him.
Even if his solar cells turn out to be as efficient as he hopes it will takes decades
to manufacture enough to make even the tiniest dent in our energy needs. He would
certainly have to licence the process.

However, using them to make hydrogen would be a criminal waste of energy.

My goodness, are we having another bad fuckology day, or what?

Any more naysayism and you'd turn yourself into another black hole,
like many other silly Yids of your kind that suck and blow.

BTW, at least their natural gas is somewhat dirt cheap and a whole lot
cleaner than any of your coal, h2o and N2 fired alternatives, and it's
not even radioactive for tens of thousands of years after the fact.

Say again why you so hate humanity and don't give a flying puck about
our environment. (isn't it that pesky Hitler cloning thing again?)
- Brad Guth -
Well, I just said they had fuel cell generators. I never made comment as
to what kind.. That was a lead in for some one else to figure out here.
(no names mentioned) :)

It's funny how something can get twisted here! I will say how ever
that the electric company (CL&P) is working on building hydrogen
generators.. One soon to be started at a Technical Trade school location
to supply a small area.
We'll see how that works out.

I just wonder where they're getting the hydrogen for these fuel

It turns out they're using good old natural gas.

You're not aware of Jamie's 'history'. He regularly posts utter nonsense in the

Yet more of the same here.

LOL!!!!
I knew that would get you! LOL!!!!

idiot..
I say fuel cell generator, and you jump right on it, and you did!...
You noticed, I never said what kind !!! :)

Have a good day sucker.

Btw.
Our Electric company is building Hydrogen generator facilities.

They will be experimenting with one on sight at a trade school with
the deal of supplying the school free electric for the use of the location.

Fewer clouds in Death Valley AIUI.

Anybody remember when they first started using nuclear, and electricity
was going to be virtually free?

Sure, I remember. My brother was VP of a power company that was
selling the concept, except he thought they were serious and sold my
mother on electric (resistive) heat. I was just an EE student at the
time, so no one listened.
I guess that one didn't pan out either. )-;

His "Watt-Saver" (PF correction) scheme didn't either.

Hey Braddie,
I wasn't saying LOX was safe! I was saying, compared to H2O2, it is
soda water! :cool:
OK, then put your relatively safe "soda water" tank worth of LOx to
work within a Hummer or GM Volt, and basically go for it, especially
if it's supposedly so much better off than h2o2.
What's the combined LOx+c12h26 of clean Mj/kg worth these days?
How much LOx per gallon of c12h26 or fossil whatever are we talking
about?
What's the well insulated storage tank of that amount of LOx going to
take, in outside measured gross volume, if looking at only a 5%/month
loss?
Is that insulated amount of LOx any smaller than a locomotive tanker
car?
- Brad Guth -
Why bother when there is all this nice atmospheric O2 around to oxidize
my fuel. Sure, it has this nice regulating N2 mixed in, but that way
everything else don't burst into flames! I ain't going into outer space
in this thing, ya know! ;-)

But if you had H2O2 you could be in outer space[*], like Brad.

That is true, as the h2o2/c12h26 powered Hummer or GM Volt would in
fact operate even better while in space, such as upon our moon, or
even while under terrestrial water or within whatever muck, and still
be delivering terrific empg as well as contributing zero NOx.

A Hummer would operate even better in space? Wouldn't traction be a
bit of a problem? You are a space shot, alright!
