http://www.lewrockwell.com/orig7/singleton-a3.html Nature does not create falsehood without first creating human beings or some such organism having been blessed with the power of reason. Is that not reasonably true? Yes or no? The natural response is maybe; let me think about it some. If the answer is yes, then, my response to the above 'reasonable' article may be understandable to whomever endeavors to apply the God given natural capacity for reason. I expect that the reader will use their own money tree. Look in the mirror and see yourself saying the following words. Judge thyself first. Put yourself in my shoes; please. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. You may have to borrow my eye for a moment to find that money tree. I must paint a picture with words: A new day dawns. The sun is shining. My alarm clock sounds 'the work bell' and it is powered by that, dawning, and brilliant sun. Perhaps it is too early and the energy from the sun does not yet flow through my house as electric power. The fuel powered electric generator does the job instead. All is automated, paid for as time went by, power-independence day has past. Things left undone: I'm hungry. The refrigerator, also paid for, stores the power of milk, also paid for, and after a short time, I am no longer hungry. Meanwhile the generator continues to shake out that valuable utility called electric power. I check the schedule. Maintenance on the power house requires no effort on my part for another 15 days, at which time, it will require a cost of about 1 hour of work, from me, or my hired maintenance expert, whichever I happened to have chosen, to be, the most trustworthy, and least costly individual or individual representative of trustworthy human labor. On that maintenance list includes: 1. Purchase a new Solar Panel to replace the current least efficient one. 2. Purchase and start the order to replace the fuel storage tank with a larger storage tank required to bank excess power for sale to those who still need more power. No need to bother with those work loads now. The schedule is free from those costs now; power-independence day has past. Now, what is left to do, is simple maintenance and freedom. Moving on to daily maintenance, only due to my insistence on commanding this individual chore myself, rather then, trust this essential operation to other's who may or may not have my best interest appraised above their best interest. Daily maintenance: 3. Check the weather. I have, in addition to my urban power house, a rural energy farm, and at that location the weather is a rather significant means to an end. If, for example, the wind is blowing briskly, then, my power output increases exponentially. My energy farm makes too much, or not enough from another angle, electricity. If the months over-production of electricity goes beyond the threshold, then, my farm dumps the excess, wastes it, for no gain whatsoever. If that 'shaking' occurs too much, then, I must make another phone call and set into motion what will eventually be a larger fuel tank on my property. 4. Check current fuel costs. I chuckle some. "Price" is irrelevant like a dinosaurs last thoughts. Even if such nonsense were recorded somewhere the meaning would be lost to me. I don't speak the language; no one does these days. Costs are up today. People are willing to pay more for the cost of my power. Too bad, I think, things were going the right way for some time. Perhaps the change in climate, due to much less dependence on oil energy, has lowered the tendency for the sun to heat up the air and make the air move. No matter, really, I just want to get my work done today, quickly, efficiently, and earn more time for fun. Note: Costs are up, average wind velocity is down, so think more about getting another wind power generator. My work is done for today. It was exhausting; such toil and trouble. Life is no bowl of cherries
