    Will distributed power production be the way we go?

    Power can be generated by big power plants or by tiny ones. Solar power is on the tiny side of the equation.

    Elizabeth: the golden years - truly dreadful fiction!

    I finished watching Elizabeth: The Golden Years this evening and wanted to briefly rant about how horribly bad it is. It is mainly function. Most of the characters in it are either inventions or are engaged in actions that they never performed in history. Important characters are completely...

    Do any of you good folk eat brown rice. I've noticed that some batches of brown rice have an occasional husky grain that just refuses to cook in the alloted 45 minutes (in the microwave). These husky fellows remain chewy and tough even after cooking and are annoying to encounter. Can they be...

    For certainly a tree is known by its fruit.

    Matthew 12:30-33 [30] Whoever is not with me, is against me. And whoever does not gather with me, scatters. [31] For this reason, I say to you: Every sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven men, but blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven. [32] And anyone who will have spoken a word...
