Retired resource economist. I was the lead subject matter expert for energy-related CO2 for 20 years with the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Looking forward to communicating with experts on climate-related energy developments.
I just wrote a @theactionnetwork.bsky.social letter: Ask Virginia Lawmakers to Support Clean Resilient Power. Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/ask-...

It turns out that, "democracy dies in darkness," is not so much a warning as it is a strategy.

Just a note on reserves. If they are not producible at today's prices and with the current infrastructure, they are not reserves. If the price of oil stays relatively low and the lifting costs in Venezuela stay high then they will stay resources and not become reserves.

Some wild weather we have had lately--droughts leading to fires then rains leading to floods. Hot one day and cold the next. This is not to mention the crazy winds and turbulence. But cheer up, the conditions we have now are the most stable we will experience FOR THE REST OF OUR LIVES!!!

A question for healthcare experts. Did the majority people who can't afford the ACA premiums without the added subsidy only sign up after those added subsidies were available or have insurance companies jacked up the prices for everyone? Seems to be a question the media should ask.

When the defendants at Nuremberg were in power they thought it would never end and they would live out their lives in grandiose style. But then things changed and they claimed to just be following orders. It turns out that following orders is not a defense.

Does anyone else love the short film Powers of Ten? I think about it when I need to put our world in perspective. There is also a newer version which contains updates in the science since the original version.

Here is a question for nutritionists. Why do Keto breads and related baked goods contain so much fiber when they appear to have no more than the average white bread. Is there a secret to adding fiber without changing the appearance or am I getting conned?

Medical experts: Given that the handwriting is on the wall in terms of vaccines, is there an effort to develop
anti-virus meds that can be administered after the infection has begun. I know that polio was devastating for some people but less traumatic for others. So could meds limit the damage?

A few weeks after 9/11/2001 I was crossing the National Mall from the Department of Energy to eat at a restaurant on the other side. I looked to my right. I looked to my left. Even though it was a beautiful day I was the only human being on the entire National Mall. I fear a return to that vibe.

I object to naming a storm Flossie. To have your house destroyed by a hurricane is bad enough but to have it destroyed by Flossie is just wrong.

I know a young lad who is on the spectrum. I met him when his parents were stationed in the USA for a military exchange. He is back in Australia now. The last thing I heard that he did was a 30-slide PowerPoint on the history of heavy metal music. That's what I'm talking about!

I have seen references here to EIA's Annual Energy Review. That data set ends in 2009. For the latest annual data see the Monthly Energy Review. The data for all of 2024 was just published at the end of March.

In the range of 600 to 700 universities have some sort of legacy component of admissions. For some reason the meritocracy crowd doesn't seem to be complaining about that. I wonder why.
