    It is easy to keep geese off of your putting greens use synthetic grape flavor methyl anthranilate is a powerful repellent for geese. Get some grape flavored kool-aid and spread the powder on your putting greens. My brother in law is the head agronomist for the PGA Tour and learned this from an old greens keeper at a course in Florida he was having problems with geese on.

    One source for electricity that Cali should continue to exploit is the geysers.....

    The Geysers Geothermal Field, California

    I think research should be expanded to see if you fill a room with Sierra club activists if they generate enough hot air to run a turbine. Would probably end up putting them on stationary bicycles and then they would only produce enough electricity to run the lights.

    _____________________________________________________
    Cali can use power generation form the geysers to run Desalinization plants along the over populated coast. Of course the universities are playing with research funding. They are researching working tech rather than training new engineer types to actually get stuff built. Would be interesting to drop something like the ones below into some of the smaller ports/bays around LA/LB/SD and have it slow down the demand for water to the masses of people that should not even be there. Would be real interesting if the military basses would just get it done and turn off the municipal water supply other than as backup. The bases should be self sustaining.

    Rancho Seco was closed by the voters, who got tired of the utility district spending a billion dollars a year on a plant that hadn't generated anything but red ink in years.

    A better statement of what happened than how the Wiki hinted at. And better stated than I could have last night. Thank you.

    They have been talking a long time, that's the reason Forest Hill Bridge is so high is because there was supposed to be a reservoir under it. How long has that been now?
