  • The Depth of Dumbth (updated 1apr17)

    George Rebane Evidence continues to pour in that the most recent generation of Americans – the so-called millennials – have turned out to be the dumbest in our history.  Specifically, their literacy, numeracy, and critical thinking skills hover above the barely adequate levels to conduct modern life according to diverse sources ranging from America’s employers…

  • AI, Education, and Immigration (Updated 1apr17)

    George Rebane Recently the new SecTreas Steve Mnuchin was quoted (here) to claim that the acceleration of technology, specifically the advent of smart machines, would have no or minimal effect on US employment.  The overwhelming evidence that inundates us daily (e.g. recently here and here) leads one to conclude exactly the opposite.  Warning of the…

  • No Plausible Means in the Lamestream’s Inflated Russian Bubble

    George Rebane This morning NPR again alerted the nation to the manufactured Russian threat, still very much a work in process.  They devoted the major segment of their Morning Edition to “reviewing” Russia’s impact on last year’s election by interviewing two ‘experts’ who turned out to be another pair of pot boiling reporters. We were…

  • Ruminations – 28feb17

    George Rebane Litmus test for regaining America’s greatness: Sustained GDP growth exceeding 3% per annum. NYT claims “Mr Trump will inherit an economy that is fundamentally solid.”  But that fake news is patent nonsense as these pages have maintained for years, and now Mr Nicholas Eberstadt, political economist at the American Enterprise Institute, will explain…

  • Scattershots – 23feb17 (updated 27feb17)

    George Rebane It’s screwing up the short-term that kills you.  Without a successful short-term there is no long-term. Refugees “dashing for the border” was last night’s report on Fox News showing illegal aliens trudging through northern New York snow to cross our unfenced border with Canada.  They claim to fear being apprehended by our ICE…

  • Stupid is as stupid does

    George Rebane Victor Davis Hanson makes it clear that California will quickly join the third world if it ever succeeds in seceding.  The Oroville Dam fiasco is a good yardstick for reflecting on the state of our state after decades of Democrat control that now is becoming more radical by the month.  Businesses will see…

  • ‘Pausebuster’ busted – lamestream laying low

    George Rebane The corrupt ‘science’ (it does not deserve the name) behind the global warming hysteria is unraveling by the day, and the lamestream media is doing everything it can to hide the reports and the devastating supporting facts.  Today the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology issued a press release corroborating the reports…

  • Scattershots – 2feb2017 (updated 5feb17))

    George Rebane More signs of our times.  SESF Executive Director Russ Steele and I along with our brides attended a robotics competition last Sunday at the Folsom campus of Intel Corporation.  One of the teams competing was from Nevada Union HS, and we were there to root for the home team.  They did quite well,…

  • An Early Take on Trump (updated 22jan17)

    George Rebane Yesterday’s early snowfall left our rooftop satellite dish glommed up and dysfunctional.  So Jo Ann and I, with our puppy, watched the inaugural doings at our neighbors who also happened to be close friends and more wisely had their dish installed at easily accessible ground level.  What we witnessed was and continues to…

  • What has Lewis done since then?

    George Rebane Black congressman and civil rights icon John Lewis hasn’t done much if anything for black folks since he joined the legislative gravy train in Washington, so maintains Jason Riley, senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute (here).  What Lewis has done lately is become leader of the de facto Democrat Party’s drive to delegitimize…
