"Conservative solutions have been proven to be objectively inadequate, while the only solutions that have been proven to be even remotely effective are the only ones that are considered unthinkable."

I love the way this guy writes. I'm still waiting for his first novel. So long as I get to read little bits like this now and then, that's okay.I also love the way he takes a picture. If by love you mean "am jealous of."

The Life of Kenneth: So You Want to Build Electronics

http://kennethfinnegan.blogspot.com/2011/06/so-you-want-to-build-electronics.html
So here is a gigantic list of everything I would buy right now to replace my entire workshop if mine were to disappear. I'm going to try and separate it into some sort of reasonable order as far as importance, but the point is that you see all of this, and use it as inspiration to put together your own collection.

Open Fuel Standard: Why Support the Open Fuel Standard Act of 2011?

http://www.openfuelstandard.org/2011/05/why-support-open-fuel-standard-act-of.html
Oil prices will stay high unless market forces drive them down through competition with alternative liquid fuels. Conservatives as well as liberals should be supporting the Open Fuel Standard that will ensure that drivers have fuel choice and thus that market forces can work. As long as the only useful fuel is petroleum the "market" simply can't work. For a market to work, you need alternatives and the opportunity for consumers to make choices.The government need to subsidize alternative fuels, all that is necessary to clear the existing market failure is to mandate that new cars must be built with fuel lines that will permit alternative fuels to be used. (cost: about $100/car). We were able to mandate seat belts to save lives. It is time we mandated the Open Fuel Standard to save our economy and our markets.
