  • George Rebane In the 11jun15 sandbox a left-leaning reader pointed out the recent speech (here) of a California conservative assemblywoman who believes that God has intervened to bring drought upon our land as a corrective to punish us for our legalized practice of infanticide and abortions.  Another similarly leaning reader weighed in with his opinion…

  • George Rebane The general circulation models (GCMs) still aren’t worth a crap.  For most of us able to read the literature, that fact has been known for well over a decade.  And looking at how GCM errors have remained large and unchanged, the models haven’t gotten any better.  But that makes no never mind to…

  • George Rebane We are told that the Internet is forever.  The global system today is already so vast and complex that no one can map it, and no one knows what comprises all of its processors (aka bit shifters) and data storage repositories (aka bit buckets).  So we can think of entries like these as…

  • George Rebane [This is the transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 3 June 2015.] For weeks now we have been hearing about the need to renew the Patriot Act that has authorized the federal government to collect data on literally every phone call made in the United States.  No probable cause was needed. …

  • ‘… when you’re rich, they think you really know!’ -  Tevye the dairyman George Rebane [We continue examination of Guaranteed National Income that commenced in the previous post, ‘Guaranteed National Income guaranteed’.] From the pantheon of America’s richest and wisest, we hear that Warren Buffett has now discovered systemic unemployment, especially of the kind that…

  • George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 20 May 2015.] Listeners of these commentaries may recall that I support redistribution of wealth.  This line drew gasps from the Nevada County Republican Central Committee when several years ago I dropped it into one of the talks I was invited…

  • George Rebane For some years now RR has proffered a solution to government’s overreach in hog-tying us with laws, regulations, and codes which are “pointless, stupid, and tyrannical”.  When I have attempted to explain to our elected betters – at least to those who agree that the current regulatory morass painfully afflicts our Republic – how…

  • George Rebane In recent years both the Right and Left have launched initiatives to hold a constitutional convention (Con-Con) to settle some real serious issues on the future direction of these United States.  Promoters on both sides devoutly believe that there exist provisions and they have expertise to implement them to insure that the con-con…

  • George Rebane The State of Jefferson movement was started over a year ago to offer northern Californians and the citizens of its thinly populated rural counties an alternative to being ignored by the social engineers, central planners, and bureaucrats in Sacramento.  The cry from these people has been ignored for over a generation, and working…

  • George Rebane Governor Moonbeam’s latest dicta about how Californians should now take showers underlines the years long insane policies under which the Left has governed our state.  The most recently mandated 25% (of what) reduction of consumer water use is the direct result of “decades of environmental excess”. Since 2000 alone the public has expressed its…
