The Green New Deal proposes elimination of nuclear power in 5 years.

Andy4608 comments on Feb 23, 2019:

Firstly, I think we need to look at the Green New Deal as a discussion point. The discussion has started and when the hysteria dies away some progress will be made. All power generation has a price; as a society we have to decide and accept how we are going to pay. The sources of electricity need to be diversified and a commitment made to eliminating the use of coal. European countries have made a start on this. Nuclear power is not the easy panacea that the article gives. Construction is massive, location is defined by the need for cooling water (as are all thermal generators),the waste is long lasting (to put it mildly), in this day and age security is a concern. I believe its use in Europe is contracting, the French were always the greatest proponents.

WHAT'S YOUR POSITION ON ABORTION ?

Andy4608 comments on Feb 13, 2019:

As a man, I feel have limited voting rights here. My 2 cents worth. 1. Abortion isn't the problem 2. No one likes abortion Address the problem: 1. Acceptance - we are hardwired to reproduce 2. Education - Ensure knowledge of the all the consequences of #1 3. Access to all necessary services Though how to get that through the Pro-Birth lobby is a whole 'nuther question.

Andy4608 comments on Jan 28, 2019:

In a similar situation, I have an interest but not an input in both (really need to talk with someone about this whole taxation without representation thing). I think in both elections there was a failure to consider what they were voting FOR. It was easy to leap on to the "not" bandwagon and ignore the potential consequences. There were many reasons for this, including misrepresentation by the interested parties and a desire on the part of a number of voters to make a point to the establishment. The victors in both promised over simplified solutions to complex issues and used a fast-moving (and largely untrue) narrative to keep the establishment on the back foot. To answer the original question, I am not sure. The republic is showing considerable resilience with a clawback taking place at state and congressional levels. The UK is bending and may be suffering for its relatively informal though complex constitution. I have hope for both.

My friend, your historical perspective seems to be viewed through cracked lenses. Numerous wars and other struggles have erupted over the Reformation. The Irish situation is complex, folks tend to forget that the historical religious dimension is three-cornered. The Irish have often been under valued: a country that can deal with distances in kilometers, speeds in mph, gasoline sold in litres, fuel consumption measured in miles per gallon and two currencies (if my memory serves me correctly) could probably solve this problem.

I bought 3 and have kept them since, even lugging them to Fort Worth (a certain irony for lovers of historical retail trivia) together with my Texas Tornados CD's.

Originally recorded to be released while the Beatles were in India. As it turned out Lady Madonna was released instead. The Beatles were persuaded by Spike Milligan to donate a song to an album he was putting together for the WWF. It was re-engineered with bird song and speeded up and released in 1969 on the Album "No one's gonna change our world"

Andy4608 comments on Nov 2, 2018:

What is it with Savoy Brown? I remember them from the early seventies, when I was a teenager, playing on the minor tour circuit and plugs for their album (name completely escapes me) in the music press. I think I may have seen them but I do not recall ever hearing them on the radio. I haven't heard any mention of them for around 45 years and they sank into a memory recess until I heard them on the radio (KKXT) a couple of months ago and a couple more times since. This is my first visit to this page and they're leaping out of the screen!!! Really not bad, I shall have to look them up.

Regret for the past and fear of the future are the two things that impact our lives the most. As today is the bridge between the past and the future, I try to stay in the present. There are past decisions that, with hindsight, perhaps I should have made differently. The past cannot be reworked and with time I have made peace with it.
