This is great! I am not usually fond of Ed Begley, but he makes some very good points and Varney just comes across as just trying to fear monger without understanding the issues.

This is a really interesting idea for generating power that really has not been discussed much. If it works out, it could be a huge source of renewable energy.

Camels terrorize Australian outback town

Mark Bentley Nov 27, 2009, 8:24 am
Camels are not exactly what I think of when I hear "terrorize", but since some were released into the wild they have made themselves very comfortable there

Help needed to bust ridiculous podcasting patent

Mark Bentley Nov 20, 2009, 3:46 pm
Judging from some of the patents that I have sees, some people at the patent office clearly do not have a clue. Some of the patents that they have given out are nothing more that patenting the obvious and hoping that someone else will do it so that you can nail them. The whole system needs an overhaul.

Did Texas' Gay Marriage Ban Accidentally Ban Straight Marriage, Too?

Mark Bentley Nov 20, 2009, 2:41 pm
Pretty funny. To bad it will be ignored, but funny anyways. What is the big deal against same sex marriage anyways (and don't say that marriage is just to have kids and a family unless you annul all marriages that don't produce children). Let them suffer like the rest of us... ;-)

Poll: Majority of Republicans Don't Think Obama Won 2008 Election

Mark Bentley Nov 20, 2009, 2:33 pm
That is funny because a lot of people still feel that Bush didn't win his first election, yet Republicans seemed fine with that... Somehow I doubt that ACORN has anywhere near the clout required to throw the election.

Christian Conservatives Praying for God to Kill Obama

Mark Bentley Nov 20, 2009, 2:30 pm
They seem to have forgotten that there is a section in John where it talks about following authority figures (i.e. Obama) because God has put them there, so to fight them is to fight God.

Seriously, what a bunch of hypocrites.
