  1. I can't see why it's an unbelievable story. That doesn't mean I approve of it. Nev
  2. The Young are more concerned with Climate action as they are most affected. Nev
  3. SKY and 2GB Nev (Ignore the gremlins).
  4. Glyphosate, Lead and Plastic to name 3, Nev
  5. Inertia in separate rotors wouldn't help back EMF has almost limitless effect and tends to hold things in Synch.. The synching has to be spot on. The Boeing B727 is a synchronous system including Ground Power. APU and all engines The engine generators are driven by CSD's that hold a constant rpm over a wide range of engine rpms Before putting an extra Gen on Line you have to flick the switch at exactly the right time Indicated by a blinking white light which is most Intense when you are most out of synch. Guess when you have to select the switch ON... Nev
  6. Young and foolish.. Chase excitement. Not New. Nev
  7. Australia is not very densely Populated but sometimes I wonder. We choose to send Electricity to a lot of remote Places. Nev
  8. Couldn't edit that. They're onto Me. Nev
  9. What about all the CRAP in the Media? IF they printed the TRUTH we could all have the facts at our disposal. Moneyed Vested Interests make sure that doesn't happen. Nev
  10. Dutton Proposes that for Businessmen but what's that got to do with the Price of Tea in China? There's generation and there is STORAGE. Standby Power is ridiculously expensive and slow in many. Instances Anything involving steam loses efficiencey and is Prone to Failure when the Plant ages and it usually Happens on a hot day Under full load without warning. Nev
  11. They used to frequently do such things at Ballarat. Nev
  12. OMEJust a Balance with batteries and you're there, IF the grid is available I wouldn't be in a hurry to dispense with it. To stay on it is about the same as Oxy and acetylene bottle rental. Sheep etc can graze the Paddock. where the Panels are. There's NO dust or noise.. No water table affected. Nev
  13. Some Pilots get Paid to do what they'd Pay to do.. Nev
  14. Even some Parts of Canada are using solar Australia HAS to be about the Last Place you'd need Nuclear. You can't easily wind it up and down, Batteries are virtually Instant ON & Off Nuclear needs water to cool the wasted heat and is a security issue. Dispersed sources are easier protected, Nev
  15. The grid is a big factor and some times we can't use all the Solar and wind we now have even. Batteries and things like Pumped Hydro are what is needed for rapid response to changes in demand . SA is BIG area for not a large population. Both sides of politics there agreed on solar wind and batteries. I think the grid there is the main issue. Nuclear is not a serious possibility for decades if ever and the cost is WAY up Multiples of the others. Nev
  16. CHANGING Climate is different to Pollution but both are a challenge to our continued existence here. Nev
  17. THEY don't GET to vote for Trump till they are the 51st State. The swing was back to Trudeau's mob. BLUE ties. Who would have thought? Nev
  18. That's not deliberate. Trump Imitators or FANS choose to accept the risk, hoping to benefit from it. Too Bad. Nev
  19. Babies can't help Pooping themselves. It's in bad taste to highlight it.. Stinks too. They perk on you as well.. . Nev
  20. It doesn't pay to "sleep like a Baby". Do you suppose that one will be shown at the wedding or Funeral? Nev
  21. It's Majority "restored" Now. Linked AC current is "synchronous" or the Back EMF blows limiters designed to protect the Components. Sunspots can cause it.
  22. They have tried to,, but that is obviously not enough to satisfy them in their Dictatorial Ambitions. Nev
