Good point, this place http://www.vla.nrao.edu/ is in a dead zone for artificial radio waves. It makes it ideal for research. A few balloons in the area may be like shining a search light into a telescope.

Psychiatry is a medical profession where the practitioners go to medical school and then train in the profession as per other medical professions. Psychology is not medicine. Psychologist study human emotions, thought, mental illnesses and disorders (overlapping Psychiatrists) but cannot prescribe unless they also train as a doctor or a Psych nurse. Psychologists do more counseling and group dynamics. Psychiatrists are more focused on drug treatments, but often work in tandem with Psychologists.

Psychological is training based on both medical and Psychological research.

This is why I hate the business. We never learn.

" In smaller companies where IT is a support, I can understand when CEOs and Execs who don't know IT make the mistake over and over again."

No, it doesn't matter. Though I sometimes think smaller companies are better than large companies as you can button hook the owner/CEO in the hall and talk to them. While in a large company the CEO may neither be a technical person, perhaps even starting in Sales, or accessible. There is no special wisdom in large companies.

Diesel engines were originally designed to run on vegetable oil and the Model T was originally designed to run on alcohol fermented from agricultural waste. So two prime movers could exist without fossil fuels. Burning oil and alcohol can also run steam engines. As could chemical batteries. Evidence suggests the Greeks and even Egyptians used available metals to build batteries. So we could have electricity, cars, trains, and ships. Perhaps even airplanes. At that point you can boot strap up. Most of the Science used in Engineering these days is hundreds of years old. So while it may be slower it is plausible.

Diesel died under mysterious circumstances, some people suspect assassination by oil interests. The Model T's ability to burn alcohol was killed by US Prohibition. Some people say Prohibition was at least some what driven by the oil interests trying to kill off alternative fuels.

Hey, the assertion was that an ambassador dying in office disqualified her. My response was that it doesn't as there were worse things that happened to Sec. of State and Presidents which most people do not consider as disqualifying them.

Compared to what? What have you done lately? What has RAND Paul done? What did Bush do?

People hate her because she is the wrong gender. Considering IT's views on women the this on this site is not surprising. Sad, but the internet has not created a better world. We should just ditch it and get back to face-to-face interaction.

We lost 3 of those under Nixon and Ford. I believe Kissenger was Sec. of State at the time.
