    Apparently Vlad is sending those arrested for protesting to the front line. Very insensitive in our opinion.

    He may just be a late comer to the club. Financial difficulties abound in all levels of the economy. So many factors like parts shortages have triggered chain situations that will not have to be handled for years to come. Product in limbo, unfinished. When finished, what to sell as? This year new, last 2 years new?
    Old stock at discount pricing? Then the warranty. Disclaimed on certain aging components, but how defined? Finer print, more enhanced misleading advertising, etc. And the usual fraud, slick promos, money back deals will abound.
    And just add to your thinking misery... When we get all electric cars, trucks, lawn mowers, locomotives. But, we have electric powered freezer food and drug warehouses now.. How to delegate the apportionment of the electric power between food/drug cold storage and the EV's on the highway, carrying commerce and people to WORK. Similar situation to the water apportionment out west now.

    Wednesday's forecast:
    It will be 94 degrees by Friday morning. This will be 3 degrees' higher than last Thursday's high of 91.
    Do we really need to know it is going to be 3 degrees hotter: in two more days, than it was five days ago.
    Follow this science into a maze....

    Also Biblical.. King David applied that science to a situation he caused way back then... Further Biblical: "There is nothing new under the sun", it says somewhere. Amazing knowledge handed down thru the ages.

    Read through some of the CARB propaganda piece that announced the sunset of new diesel trucks sales in Cali. I operate under the philosophy of know your enemy batter than you know yourself......

    Part of the document included a listing of the projects they have in process to increase electricity available to the grid at peak demand times. They also make note of Hydrogen fuel cell trucks as a viable option to diesel that is being manufactured right now. Also noted was a chart of manufacturers currently and eminently producing Electric drive trucks.

    I wonder if they get enough Hydrogen trucks running if the water that is the emissions would be enough to lessen the continuous droughts (drought to me is defined as overuse of natural water resources caused by poor planning and bad/non representative "historical" data).
