    More Yobbering


    Yobbers,


    Why don't you stop your wobbling and leave it to people that care enough about our Earth to learn and actually do something about it?

    In Australia they do that in the Snowy scheme to use the power from the coal fired plants when demand is low

    Powerabout,

    Do they use the excess electric power to pump water up to a higher elevation? or? It seems to be a great idea for sure

    No, they didn't. And no one but a relative handful of gullible, brain-dead whacko's believe they did....

    Troy, I am pretty sure he was kidding.


    I do wonder where Yobbers has been today? Maybe his wife has him in "time out" after his obnoxious comment about WWII. Or it is more likely that there is another "Golden Girls" marathon on TV, you know, the Amercian TV show that stars Yobber's reported femme fatale; Betty White.


    Smiling here

    I don't really think he was joking that much; I think he was working up to using it as an example of how gullible and prone to panic 'the left' is, and how they'll believe anything.

    Of course, I may be wrong. As he's pointed out before, I'm not a mind reader.:)

    Why is it a shock to find out a woman who's been in entertainment her entire life is a registered Democrat, and more liberal than you politically?

    Jeez... the gal is 90 years old, and still picking up Emmy nominations. Focus on her performances, not her politics.:)
