Category: Comment Sandbox

  • Sandbox – 3may15

    [The old sandbox is overflowing again.  In the effort to evaluate and/or design alternatively powered vehicles that was initiated in the 27apr15 sandbox, it would help for our more environmentally concerned readers to recognize that the energy to move a given mass (say, automobile) from point A to B in time interval T requires a certain…

  • Sandbox – 27apr15

    [For the record, 27apr15 The Union published my letter critiquing Mr George Boardman's column. The letter was also copied into the 23apr15 sandbox's comment stream as its opening comment.]

  • Sandbox – 23apr15

    [The nearby photo of a massive dredging operation is of the Chinese busily enlarging some Spratly islands in the South China sea to better house their growing military presence there in order to cement their lawless takeover of the islands. This is a continuation of the crap that’s going on with Russia in the Ukraine…

  • Sandbox – 16apr15

    [Readers were starting to complain about the old sandbox getting a bit "stale" (some would have chosen a more robustly descriptive term, but then we do promote decorum on these pages), so we open a new one.  This day is propitious for another reason, today I brought home my fourth Jeep Grand Cherokee and bid…

  • Sandbox – 7apr15

    [Well, the weather outside is frightening … .  Since the trees have leafed, we are going outside periodically to knock the snow off those bent over branches of the 'specimen trees' we can reach. And the local dust devil getting people roiled around Nevada County today is the question 'Was Terry Lamphier set up?' for the child…

  • Sandbox – 30mar15

    [As a surprise to no one save Team Obama and the land's progressives, Iran has finally done what was expected and told us to go pound sand on the major provisions of the oh-so-hoped-for agreement.  gjr]

  • Sandbox – 22mar15

    [Well, that was quite an episode in the last sandbox that I hope has run its course, or at least not let that thread of ad hominem exchanges leak out.  I see that Sen Ted Cruz will throw his hat in the ring tomorrow, NATO's chief sees continued expansion from Putin that may get out…

  • To What End Por Favor?

    George Rebane We are here in Scottsdale again attending the annual conference of the Mercatus Center and Institute for Humane Studies.  For the last several years it has been an annual event for us and friends to caravan down and enjoy a few days of exceedingly interesting presentations and workshops on economics and national issues. …

  • Sandbox – 18mar15

    [Am on travel and daily connectivity is iffy.  Am very interested in hearing readers' take on what is the definitive yet plausible disclosure about Hillary's emails that would start other Dems coming out of the woodwork to throw their hats into the ring for 2016.  So far everything looks like the email thing may become…

  • Sandbox – 11mar15

    [So much to think and talk about – Hillary's debacles and scandals and incipient candidacy(?), Kentucky's two senators starting to hug each other, Obama's Iranian bumble, The Fed's prevarication on interest rates and the market's dive, Iran 'advising' Iraqi troops against ISIS (remember, these turkeys fought an eight year war recently), al Sisi, our strongest Arab ally,…
