NASAs, CISCOs and AMEEs are great, but then... eh:-p

@Coleman. Yes, political agenda is another nasty bug.

That said, I like a comment he made last year and i'm paraphrasing - If we build all this technology to avert climate issues what's the worst that could happen? We would've created a lot of cool new technology. If we don't do anything what's the worst that could happen? We'd all be dead and gone. I guess some people prefer to take their chances with the latter.

BUT! I love the new technologies, some really cool stuff. Even though I will never buy one, hybrids, what a fun concept of engineering. If we could only get these fake enviroagolists outta the way we could do some magical things. (like put wave generators on the bottom of the ocean, who do you think is blocking THAT deal) and if you think environmentalists are the good guys, just look at how much money and funding are in these "keep it green" organizations and then come back and say it's not about the money. The EPA has turned into more of a farce that the FDA... and that takes some true talent behind the works. Ok... I'm done now... continue Tim... I actually DID enjoy the article.

Yeah, the environmentalists are clearly the ones blocking putting generators on the seabed, or whatever. Obviously. I mean, duh. Big energy companies would NEVER buy up patents only to bury them to protect their profit margins. What possible reason would they have to do so? All those environmentalists are the ones blocking green investment, of course! All the lobbying they do, all the research, all those new companies they start, working to free us from oil dependance and prevent the catastrophe that the scientists of the world say is waiting for us, that's meaningless PR. The people who really know what's going on all know that climate change is a myth, whatever all the "scientists" who study the subject say.

All those non-profits out there looking to save the planet, they're just doing it so they can make a living without producing something someone wants to buy. It's all about the money. The long hours they put in, all the volunteers and donations, it's all a scam to get paid half or less what similar jobs in big business get paid. They don't care about helping at all. They're just self-righteous pricks who want to feel good about themselves for making life better for others, it's ridiculous. If you want proof, just look at the government agencies designed to protect us, total failures, and the naysayers can talk all they want about the previous administrations under Reagan, Bush, and Bush systematically gutting the protections, but it's really that the environmentalists are self-serving dicks!

Dude, you're a greedy, know-nothing prick. Talk about self-righteous! What a troll you are, really. Try learning something before you open your mouth. Look in the mirror sometime-- all the nasty traits you see in those "enviroagolists" are really just a reflection of the quality of your own character.

Altruism exists, and its rewards don't diminish the good it does, even when you get paid for it. You're either in it for the common good, or you're a goddamn useless fool. Now get out of the way so the grownups can do the work that needs to be done. Pissant.

artist today are selling their stuff by the single track; umakeitcool.com for example;

i think old catalogs will die just like old sears catalogs of the early 20th century.
