  • Nevada County Tea Party Patriots

    [gjr – Just received this email from Kim Pruett.  The Tea Party movement is alive and well, and we're all still searching for the corporate fatcats who are supposed to be guiding and sponsoring this.  If they're out there like the liberals claim, sending a few bucks our way would sure help.  Hell, we'll even…

  • ‘H1N1 Influenza A’ nee Swine Flu

    George Rebane The medical mavens in Washington and WHO have again renamed the pony (or is it the pig?) in the middle of the stream.  Following a week of dubious and hard-to-track reports on the progress of the Mexican flu (another interim politically incorrect name), as of today the disease will be known as ‘H1N1…

  • Politics Now Rules ‘Man-Made Global Warming’

    George Rebane Science be damned – it’s now only the politics stupid!  With last week’s pulling of Viscount Monckton’s invitation to testify before Congress alongside Al Gore – so Big Al would not be “embarrassed” (here) – the blitz to bamboozle, control, and tax the nation’s sheeple is in full swing.

    George Rebane Lynn McDaniel teaches English at Nevada Union High School and coordinates the Senior Project Presentations.  She sent me the following message for all you local RR readers asking for volunteers to join the project evaluation panels.  Jo Ann and I are planning on contributing an afternoon to help out. Once again, on behalf of…

  • 3% of GDP for R&D

    George Rebane That’s what President Obama has told us today.  As usual, government information is mushy and gives plenty of wiggle room for later waffles.  Given the current GDP at the $14 trillion level, this “investment” comes to about $420 billion annually – at least, we think it’s a long term commitment and not a…

  • We Zig While They Zag

    George Rebane We are heading back to the barn after spending the better part of this week in San Diego.  My old Army unit – 2nd Battalion 5th Artillery – had its latest reunion there.  These affairs involve our wives who all know each other from the days in Germany when we were young with…
