  1. I have'em, but not for this forum.
  2. LOL. I don't watch any of that. My loss?
  3. Aliens wiped out my memory so I can't help you. Sometimes a pm helps jog things.
  4. The market will decide. Imagine the family discussion. "Of course we should hold on to granddaddy's joy that he loved so much he never even drove it." "I know, let's hold on to it too and never drive it either." "I agree, the bed could hold all of his baseball card collection too!" BTW did anyone watch the latest episode of Hoarders? Those people are so whack! "Hey! I need the money we can get from that truck to buy a pair of Jubilees." What? Speakers? What is wrong with you? "Aren't you late for a book banning meeting?"

    Jokes?

    And then the joke is on us...
  6. The boomers that are bidding them up to stupidity will die in the next 20 years. The inheritors will decide the market after that. Watching the televised auctions I am smh at what some things bring, but just look at who is buying. Eventually, the real valuable items will remain as before the insanity, and the stupidity will subside to the baseline---Oh look, an old car. Nicely restored isn't it?
  7. For sure. But baseball cards are also judged for their covers (appearance) along with who it is, what manufacturer distributed it, and so on. For collectors, it is not always about the music unfortunately. Who cares about them, except that sometimes they raise the price of what we like to obscene levels. BTW, you got the beanie babies?

    Jokes?

    It is pointless to argue the actual numbers, especially when there is a wide difference between "capacity" and actual "production," but as a whole I agree with you. The important point is that diversification and seeking out new and better technologies is good for the nation. There are many steps in the right direction.

    Jokes?

    I never said anything of the kind. Coal, however, represents around 10% of total US energy production. So if you think coal is going to charge that amount of electric cars you are delusional. But I'd love to hear your response to my city's municipal electricity production being largely from renewable resources, with the rest from natural gas which burns a lot cleaner than the black stuff.

    Jokes?

    Its funny because its not true.
  13. Destroys the intrinsic value of reading. We read to small children. Early in their lives we teach them to read. Audiobook, really?
  14. Dust in the wind. All we are is dust in the wind.
  15. RIP Guitarist Don Wilson, last surviving founder of surf-rock pioneers The Ventures, dies at 88 (msn.com)

  17. I have wanted to try it too, but haven't gotten there.
  18. North America is a continent for the hardy, full of extreme swings.
  19. Alright then. You got biscuits? And mustard? Ah like mustard on mah biscuits, mmm hhhmm.
  20. Sounds like you have it under control. I like to marinate, but it isn't entirely necessary.
