Battery operated vehicles had a decent chance to replace the horse and buggy. Batteries and charging them was already fairly well along in the early 20th century when Ford got his gas car assembly line going...and that killed them. Ironically; it was the small electric motor -installed as a "starter".... that replaced the hand-crank-start - that killed the Electric vehicle revolution. Can you guess the first car company to install electric starters were? Read on.... https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1073006_what-killed-electric-cars-the-electric-motor-100-years-ago

Robecology comments on Apr 14, 2020:

I'm an epidemiologist...(I study trends in human populations) so - yes - this is a wake-up call. A warning. A slap in the face. The tip of the Iceberg. Things will get much worse...sooner or later; until we get to ZPG. As long as we "value" or "welcome" growth....we are speeding up our "runaway freight train" of human population growth. The more we grow...the more close we get, the more likely we are to breed stronger germs. I'm afraid it's becoming the most likely thing to end our - and most land life's - existence on the planet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRLCUdWuyng

I used to agree; I can't any more (that "Sanders followers should be angry"). I've donated hundreds. Bought pins, banners, bobble-heads and bumper stickers. I've posted tons of articles on FB, and here, trying to promote Bernie for president (see the memes. below). Having said that; I concede.... Bernie will not make it to the presidency this time; and this seems like his last shot. But that doesn't mean he's done. Remember; if the mood of the nation remains strongly anti-Trump/pro health care for all...Bernie will pass that torch to Joe, A.O.C. and others. And remember this; if our Senate becomes "Democratic" then guess who will be the new Senate Majority Leader? Yep...Bernie Sanders. Bernie's not done, yet.

Who knows...I'm guessing some day, when religion has faded, that the pageantry will become a theme of some Agnostic POV's..."Silent night...peaceful night...not a germ in sight...." nah...not yet...

Robecology comments on Apr 13, 2020:

Now I will have to go get me some shrimp! This looks fabulous! Traditionally, ceviche was made with either fish or shellfish that was "cooked" by marinating in an acidic liquid (like lime juice), mixed with chopped fresh vegetables and herbs, and served with a starch like potatoes or yams. The citric acid in the lime breaks down the proteins in the shrimp and prepares the meat for consumption, turning the flesh an opaque pink and destroying harmful bacteria. https://www.southernliving.com/seafood/shrimp/raw-shrimp-ceviche

The Gaia hypothesis suggests just that; that we are, indeed, an "infecting" (i.e. overpopulating, growing out of control) organism. We are, indeed, causing the earth to react with a "fever". Earth's warming will add more clouds and storms; the white tops of which will cool us, as will the rains.

A few years ago I saw the "Adopt-a-highway" sign....and since a highlight of my teaching career was doing that for decades with my high school Ecology club, I decided to try to get the seniors here at my "Ocean Village" community to participate - with no results at all.

It's a tough call. If we "mix"...get "out in the world - if we "socialize" then we increase our chances of both good and bad experiences. I'm guessing since we have one life to live; we can isolate, let few outsiders "know" us...and live longer....or we can get out, get involved, get intimate - and suffer the consequences - and not live as long. This "new normal" as you called it is probably going to do humanity good. We'll live - as a species - a little longer if only because we're not sharing diseases as well. There's been reports of lower pollution levels, less social intimacy development...which could lead to our slowing of our out-of-control growth rate.

Robecology comments on Apr 10, 2020:

We have to empathize with the Trump supporter. They're just like him...quick to label and call names (democRATS"). Sexist. Racist. Tax cheats. Business cheats. Every person I know who's a Trump supporter has most of these traits - -and they're nearly impossible to debate. They've made up their minds. They're akin to #religulous about him...they want a loud, aggressive, ignorant bully as POTUS. They want to suppress the poor and the foreigners. They want to force people to avoid abortions and not do well with family planning...because that's what they've done. So it comes down to this; either ignore them; or reason with the guy/gal "on the fence" about him. Then work to "get out the vote". That's about all we can do. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rW9R6jgE7SQ

This is a great science experiment for any of your kids stuck at home. Lay out 10 (or multiples of 10) evenly distant on a wet towel surface Keep it wet. Moisten with purified water, if possible, to eliminate variables. Take pictures of each set once one has germinated. Be consistent with your watering time, amounts, and time of day the pic is taken (the goal...eliminate variables). Remember; a control would be fresh seeds, or seed types that create 100% germination. (that's why the sets of 10...to keep it mathematically simple). Print out the pics...make graphs...Easy, valid science experiment; most elementary and/or Jr. Hi science competitions would welcome a well done, clearly illustrated experiment like this. Don't take on too many seed types/ages; remember the KISS rule (Keep it Short and Simple).

The Chinese went through a very controversial "One child per family" policy from 1980 until just recently. It did ease some growth. - but they - and we - still suffer from out-of-control population growth. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-child_policy It was my major in Grad school...and i taught a large/long unit about it in HS for decades. The basic facts; We're growing by 150 more births, than deaths per minute. 220,000 more per day. 1,000,000 every 5 days. https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/ Yet most nations applaud and reward "growth" with tax incentives for larger families. But more people means more easily transmitted diseases. This COVID thing is the tip of the iceberg. If we don't act now - the next Pandemic will make this one look like a walk in the park. Al Gore tried to warn us 14 years ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRLCUdWuyng

Tell me this is a spoof? post edit...Nope. He dropped out. Sad. Disappointed. Let's hope we get some Bernie people behind Joe. Let's hope Obama comes out swinging to support him.

I don't get Dr. Birx stare; is it "WTF are you thinking" ? Maybe; "You're so hot/wise/cool"? Only funny interpretations, please...
