I agree. We need to adopt a more open mindset and accept possibilities even when they don't seem appealing at first.

Allamanda comments on Jul 16, 2019:

Many of the newer types of battery are said to have recoverable elements, up to 90% in some cases. That becomes easier with economies of scale. Plus they have huge efficiency gains, up to 12x. Not all electricity is or will be produced by fossil fuels or nuclear so decreasing that aspect of ...

Too little too late, the profits must be made with scant respect for future generations, should we jettison all the shit into outer space? Pollute the universe......

I heard Mecca is a beautiful place, especially at night to visit. I am interested in its history.

My answer is you should stop thinking about it immediately. It will do no good whatsoever. Watch a good movie instead.

Justly so, I do not judge the people by an iligitimate fool of a leader, I'm hoping that our cousins across the pond will be as kind to Brits if Boris the "Turd" becomes Prime Minister? It's all political Chess, nothing to do with democracy!

Good for them. The US should apologize for setting aviation back more than 100 years. Revolutionary soldiers took the airfields and not another plane launched to 1903 (correct?).
