Good because we have $45bn of new data centers and $205bn of new manufacturer facials being built in 2026.

This will help but there is still not enough juice for the.
We need lots of GW scale nukes NOW!

In 250 years, congress has declared war in 5 instances

1812
Mexican war
Spanish war
WW pt1
WW pt 2

11 times total because of of multiple declarations. Eg against Germany and Japan in WW pt 2

More than a few years

Our last declared war, with Japan, officially ended in Sep 45

You are the one who said he and Elon "stole" the election.

Strong claim.

Got any evidence of illegality?

It would require a constitutional amendment. Think you could get 2/3 of states, +2/3 house & senate?

Then how much service and what kind? Would you count LBJs service for example?

I'd go along with that. That would let out

Biden
Trump
Obama
Clinton
Fdr
Hoover*
Coolidge
Harding
Wilson
Taft

*Hoover didn't serve in military but worked on his own between the lines to feed the Belgians and others starting in Aug 14. Probably saved 20mm lives between 14 & 20.

We celebrate 52 years together in 2 weeks

I take your point about the nap. Just 1 wife is a full time exhausting job (worth every minute)

Even when younger the idea of a side piece or multiple wives horrified me.

I just would not have the energy

And here I'd been thinking he was democratically elected

Silly me

Key word "rely"

Some people are so helpless they need govt to tie their shoes.

Over the past 75 years life has taught me that govt is the last, not the first resort for anything.

It will be nice if they can help. Nobody should ever rely on any govt.

48,500 is "WAY below" 50m?

It is down 2000 points since the recent high.

But up $4.5m since Trump was elected in 11/24

Meanwhile CB forecasts $200bn in New mfg plant construction, not counting machy & equip.

Also, $45bn in new data centers. Not counting equipment.

Seems like a good time to buy

Good point about corn and factually true.

In 250 years we've only formally "declared war" on 5 occasions.

But 5 wars

Mexican - American
Spanish - american
WW part 1
WW Part 2

I blame Johnson, Webster et al

If we did not have dictionaries telling us THIS is the only proper way to spell this word.

It is a dull person who can only spell a word one way.

Don't you have to have evidence that can be presented in court before you can have a trial?

Who would you like to see tried?

On what evidence?

Contrary to popular Bluesky opinion, the absence of evidence is not evidence.

Actually fdr bombed a dozen or 2 countries in a single year.

Several years running.

8 if you count the invasion of L.A, Portland, Minneapolis -- not bombing in the traditional sense, of course. But nothing is traditional at the moment.

But in 2025 they brought more coal capacity online (78gw)than solar (63gw)

Grok says they expect to add 36-48gw solar in 26 and 50-80gw coal.

That's actual capacity for solar, not nameplate capacity. Nameplate capacity for wind/solar is a lie. Actual is @20% of nameplate

What is the effective kw per acre?

Not nameplate.

How many kwh per year?

We call them gongoli in Puerto Rico. They come big and black 3-4" long, small and red. Harmless

Not to be confused with centipedes which scare the crap out of me.

I've been asked to write an article on in-plant generation. I plan to touch on the above and more.

Is anyone here involved in CHP? 3rd party generation? Utilities? anything else related?

I'd be interested in discussing.

The other issue is that a plant in the business of making catsup will not want to get into the business of making electricity. Again PURPA, and the Alcon v PREPA decision to the rescue. 3rd parties can build and operate onsite CHP facilities and sell energy as lease payments.
