-Man it is hot outside, but it is cool in the bunker, where I plan to stay. At 4:00PM yesterday, at our hocienda, we had 104.7 deg. F with 27% RH. That's almost desert conditions Today, it's to be more of the same but a "cold" front is right around the bend, that should sprinkle the partched land and cool things down a bit. Hopfully back to normal temps next week.
-Before the impact of the 2012 drought is felt on food prices, some 200 Etoh plants (corn used as raw material) have been shut down in US due to 1) lack of subsidied $, 2) the price of crude oil has dropped, hence gasoline prices are down, making Etoh corn refineries unprofitable. Anyone could of predicted that case
- Here is something pp or mamaO (for certain ) should tether to the "all of the above energy resources" ...sugar corn or beet. Noticed Shell teamed up with Brazilian refineries to buy Etoh made from sugar . But corn is a starch? I know, but we need corn more than sugar to feed the world's people.
The US produces 13% world's wheat, 40% of the corn, 50% of the soybeans, 80% of the sorgham. The US exports most food stuffs than any other country and it is but 2% of our economy.
-Halt! That's what GE management said about a major new plant construction in CO. Appears the bottom fell out of domestic need for more solar panels. I wonder if the WH ever completed their scheduled solar panel extraordinary?
-Then you have this wild man in the row boat, trying to conduct his energy program and he is beginning to realize one little man really can't do much by himself no matter he is the POTUSA. Welcome to the Free Enterprise System and stop screwing around where you do more harm than good, sir.
-Rumor has it that David Gregory, journalist with NBC "Meet the Press "is to be axed? FNN standing-by. .
