Another in the long line of Mac vs PC video’s, this one I think is quite ironic in that it’s so true.



What ancients did for us - The INDIANS 4/6

Well I guess India’s colorful cotton, particularly with the Paisley design, made a lot of hippies happy… yes I admit it, I had Paisley shirts, and as much as it embarrasses me… I wore flared pants too, but it gets much worse still, I had flared cords. My only relief comes from the fact that Flares are making a come back… and just to get back a little more esteem, I’ll tell Gen Y don’t do it! Knowing they’ll take no notice of me.

Gandhi supported the Indian cotton industry, in fact from memory such as it is (injury related), I believe he used that support to start his peaceful revolution against the British Empire, or to be more correct, the British Royal families East India Company business interests, which included Opium.

As far as the cotton industry is concerned, personally I find it offensive that foreign (American I believe) owned companies are growing cotton and Rice in Australia, and are I believe largely responsible for polluting what is arguably Australia’s most important river… the upside I guess is that their water uses is sooo excessive, that luckily the once Mighty Murry has almost run dry, saving us from being poisoned by the chemicals and pesticides used in the production of the cotton and rice crops. For those amongst you that don’t get Irony (most Americans) that was not just sarcasm but ironic sarcasm.

The cure of course is that we should swap Cotton for Hemp, which is a stronger and I believe better cloth, can be used to make high quality paper (no more cutting down trees for paper), insulation and building materials etc. and it will grow almost anywhere, requires less water, no chemicals, it actually improves the soil, and the seeds are a far better food source than Rice.

But they (the Americans) wont like that, it’s apparently OK to sell cigarettes which kill millions, but not Hemp (Pot) that has never in recorded history killed a single person… again for those that don’t get Irony, that’s yet another example. And what has all that to do with India… bugger all, I just thought I’d get it off my chest.



Recharge Non-rechargeable Batteries in Seconds

I spent a relative fortune on ‘Rechargeable’ batteries, which are worse than useless because not only do they not fully charge, but when charged, they discharged themselves within a couple of weeks… I should have used the ‘bunny’ batteries instead. Anyway, here’s another alternative I’ll experiment with.

Archeology has always intrigued me. About 4,500 years ago in present day Pakistan, the Harappan civilization (3,000–1,500 BCE) built what’s thought to be a remarkably advanced, extensive city built on a grid system, of some 30,000 people, totally unheard of before the Roman Empire 2,500 years later.

In this ancient planned city, homes had their own wells, drains and toilets, complete with an underground sewer system comprising of earthenware pipes, a first it seems on our planet. They also had developed an advanced method of casting intricate Bronze statues.



Dentists Discover YOUR Toothpaste & Drinking Water is Toxic

I have little doubt that the increases in cancers, tumors, asthma and a host of other malaise is a result of the chemicals; mostly petroleum based, which are being inflicted upon us.

Regarding fluoridation of our water, it is, along with vaccines; also viewed with suspicions by many, it’s one of the few areas where the government and more particularly big business, have supported their use for ‘our’ benefits.

Below is an extract from Nexus Magazine

“Repeated doses of infinitesimal amounts of fluoride will in time reduce an individual’s power to resist domination by slowly poisoning and narcotizing a certain area of the brain and will thus make him submissive to the will of those who wish to govern him. “Both the Germans and the Russians added sodium fluoride to the drinking water of prisoners of war to make them stupid and docile.”

At 40 million pounds (about 80 million USD or 50.5 million EUR), gas turbine motors put out 17,000 hp, it weighs 95 tons and it will do 75 mph (121 kph)… it’s probably owned by a Banker or property developer. So next time you look at your diminishing returns on your mortgage, superannuation or investments, understand that the Sub prime mortgage crisis wasn’t bad for everyone. :)

Over the years I’ve seen or heard of many alternative motors with differing configurations, this one’s very impressive with regards to it’s power to weight (and size)… just take a look at the size and weight comparison between the two 800 hp motors. If you want to find out more, check out their website at the bottom of this post.

It’s sad that inventions such as this are more likely to get support, if they have a military application, rather than provide a service… say like helping the countless thousands of paraplegics.
