Future Earth Gets Super Cold, Humanity Triumphs Anyway

October 21st, 2008 · No Comments

I saw a show on television about all the different ways the Earth could end, and there was one segment featuring Snowball Earth, a theorized former incarnation of our planet. It seems that a long time ago, the Earth had a pretty major ice age. I think it was 750 million years ago. [...]

Weather Takes A Backseat

October 6th, 2008 · 1 Comment

It’s so wild the number of intense and far-reaching issues that have taken up news time lately. Just a little while ago we had a hurricane problem. Then a war with Russia possibly looming. And then at that point Sarah Palin took all the focus. What she experienced enough to become [...]

2 Days To Atom Smashing Prep

September 8th, 2008 · 1 Comment

CERN’s “multibillion-dollar Large Hadron Collider” will become infused with some protons in 2 days - this Wednesday, September 10 (2008).
They’ll run the protons one way around the huge underground circular tunnel. Then the other way. Then both ways at once (I think in October), to collide at high speed. That’s when the [...]

Energy Diversification Is Key

July 14th, 2008 · No Comments

I was reading Megatrends the other day, an old ’80’s copy, and it was talking about how Nuclear Power used to be touted (before the book was written) as the one and only necessary total solution for our energy woes. Megatrends went on to say that the best solution would instead be diversification.
A few [...]

Atom Smasher Doomsday: Halloween 2008, Or 12-21-2012

June 30th, 2008 · No Comments

Here’s my crrrrraaaaazzzzzy theory, in short: The Atom Smasher will be activated this August, take 2 months to warm up, and then destroy the world on Halloween. If the world survives, the machine will be upgraded in 2012. That’s right, a Super Atom Smasher will be built. Then we’re all dead [...]

Google’s New Favicon

June 2nd, 2008 · No Comments

Sure, it’s just a tiny image. No big deal. But Google is huge. And this one tiny change just seems to be pretty wild. At least to me.
I had gotten used to Google’s old favicon long ago. It seemed timeless. But now, in 2008, with a new, lowercase, transparency [...]

We Are Living In Exciting Times

April 21st, 2008 · No Comments

Lots of change going on. If you look at things one way, we face many problems that have the potential to make things bad. But if you take a different perspective, we have a major opportunity to do some good.
I remember hearing about the Greatest Generation, great because they triumphed over incredible adversity. [...]

Hydrogen Fuel Cell Cars

March 24th, 2008 · No Comments

How fast can we make the conversion? I want one! Well, I want it to be safe. None of the whole, “Oh, the humanity!” issues to worry about. But seriously, are we moving along developmentally at a steady clip? Or could things go faster?
How quickly and efficiently could we set [...]

When Do We See Flying Cars?

March 21st, 2008 · No Comments

I’ll bet antigravity or some other sensational new technology will make its debut at some point in the future, after the military has exhausted its uses as a secret weapon, and it will begin to infiltrate all kinds of current industrial areas. Cars could get it. Planes could get it. Even skateboards!
So [...]

When Will Cars Really Talk?

March 12th, 2008 · No Comments

I like the old “Knight Rider” show. I think its neat to imagine having an intelligent artificially intelligent friend inside your car. I think that scenario is possible, just like the one where SkyNet decides to kill us all. But a Knight Rider future seems like a lot more fun.
I wonder if [...]
