My guess is they cost the same or more otherwise they would not require subsidies for implementation.

But has it led to increased Elk breeding?

The cloud has immense uses but "trust me" is not something you ever want to here from the government or a company. Anyone that puts there assets out in the ether with no alternate location is asking for trouble.

Sorry but it has NOT be clearly established that man's activities caused it. Read a few history books and you will notice there have been many periods of warmth and cold. Guess when the Bubonic Plague occurred? Guess when Hannibal crossed the Alps? Yep cars caused both periods of 'climate change'

For proof of the lie that is global warming go back to the 70's for predictions of global cooling, or go back to the 90's and read the incorrect predictions for today, or realize that they changed the name to climate change because that can mean anything. Global warming is an anti-science movement itself but just like the communists practiced you accuse your enemy of doing what you are doing first.

Nope governments job MIGHT be to standardize reporting or measurement but not lumens/watt. For instance CFLs are slow to warm up but imagine one in a fridge. Or how about oven lights, yep mercury laden CFL or a chip will work real well there. Despite what they act like the idiots in Washington do not know much and should not attempt to tell others how to live (most of them could take lessons on that)

They already do. I am waiting for them to set a good example and go first though.

Has the climate ever NOT been changing? That is the myth of global warming that the current change is unique rather than the norm.

Real open source would be making it a right to work state and getting rid of union control. Real open source would be to get rid of the government control and let people figure things out. What he seems to be proposing is nothing more than leveraging best practices.

Most of what he released was benign stuff like inter department emails that lowered confidence in us and disrupted the ability for staff to freely communicate. There was also a bunch that revealed information on how we operate endangering our troops. Add in the loss of confidence of anyone that wanted to covertly help us against the extremists in their midst that will now not help cure the problem.

Had he filtered the data and limited it to illegal activity I might be on his side but that was never his goal.

They are ignoring the real problem. Why did this guy have access to all of that? Why was the data not walled off some? Seems he had the ability to access and download data that was irrelevant for his job and THAT was the issue that made this such a problem.

Sorry I left it in the glove box of my flying car

Using your logic by the time we find out CO2 is NOT the cause we will have destroyed the world economy and have the devastation to humanity already also.

I don't trust anyone on the Green Madness side as there has been numerous cases of hidden data that once exposed proved incorrect. So you hurry I will keep the standard of living that has extended my lifespan far above my ancestors.

Based by what do you think it will do good? Basically nothing?

The Taliban is made up of evil people that want to kill you and your family. That has been publicly broadcast by them.

Further the problem is NOT our military it is the morons in DC that insist we adhere to the Geneva Convention while LYING about what is in it. The Taliban is explicitly denied protections more than a few ways by the GC. The fact is that they are fighting in a manner that purposefully endangers civilians and confuses the US military in hopes they will kill them or at least generate bad propaganda so the useful idiots will support their side by not supporting their country. The wikileak guys don't deserve the name scum nor the protection of those whose lives are risked to keep their sad hides free.

Playing .... I didn't get beat up because it was like trying to brush a wolverine, even if you won you lost.

Reading the article it seems they are talking short term. However those that say it will cause a problem are looking long term with mass conversion which is like the worry of Prius bubbles but nationwide.

Further the 2kW load does not say for how long. Is that for 2 hours or 8?

I think an electric car would be nice IF they are efficient and cost effective. Given the extreme bias toward anything claiming to be green I wonder though. Further what about drives longer than 25 miles? Taking a two hour drive north might mean stopping for 4 to recharge. Or what about trucks and RVs? The solution and thought pattern seems very city centric with all the country people having magic happen.
