Apparently... I suspected that this would happen. I'm hosting on a small vps that I've been playing with for a year. I recently asked my host to increase the memory, but I haven't heard back from him yet. You can read the same proposal at the kuro5hin.org link - you just won't get the three small pictures.:)
I expect you are underestimating the sheer vastness of the ocean
Dr. Joye suggests that some of the oil is concentrated in plumes. I'd send the Enterprise to float over one of those first.
and how many gigatons of O_2 would be required.
This is why the Enterprise's six nuclear reactors are needed - there just aren't any other 310 Megawatt floating power plants, that I know of... The Mighty (MYT) pump design will efficiently convert the reactors' steam into rotational motion. Furthermore, the same pump will be able to move 3x as much air as old compressor designs.
At this point try anything and the place is so fuct that messing with the chemistry a bit more can't make it any worse
Epic disasters call for epic interventions, do they not?
Are you one of those people who places all their trusts in the status quo? "Let the experts handle it?"
I bet you'd say "trust BP to do what needs to be done" too.
If nothing else, the hardware could be used post-catastrophe to try out an awesome fish-farming proposal. Does that not make sending the Enterprise worth doing anyways?
weather (stopping a hurricane
310 Megawatts of power could "turn over" a lot of ocean water. Why not try it out? I suppose you live in... Washington, D.C., so what do you care about oil being carried inland into the old confederacy?
Massive fuckups that can not be solved quickly with all the experts
Sometimes experts know too much. Sometimes experts can't solve simple problems. This is not a quick solution - it's just something to help contain the environmental damage that's going to happen while the long solution gets implemented.
I am of the opinion that the best way to clean up the Gulf of Mexico is to Send the Enterprise (no, not that Enterprise, silly rabbits!). The complete proposal is given at the link.
Tell everyone you know.
(kuro5hin.org has two options for voting for a story: "Front Page" and "Section Page". 93% of the people who voted for my story voted FP, so I have reason to believe that my proposal has merit.)
The 1.45 billion is not part of the budget, it is not being paid by tax payers at this point, it is a loan from a bank (not the feds) that the feds are insuring.
And who gets to keep the interest on the loan? If the feds are guaranteeing the loan, shouldn't they get the interest too?
It's like the recent changes to student loans. For the last few decades, banks issued any student a loan. If they didn't pay up, they went and got their hunk of flesh from Uncle Sam. When the student did pay up, the banks kept 100% of the profit. This was recently changed so that the government is officially in the banking business (for students).
As I understand it, Tesla's later work required no power stations whatsoever. His 'Black Magic' touring car pulled the energy directly from a field of infinite potential...
Look at what the Joe Cell/Brown's Gas researchers are doing now... They jiggle water apart with exactly the right electric pulse and exactly the right setup (stainless steel tubes) to create enough HHO gas to run a vehicle on. I know a builder personally, and his setup is simple and elegant. And it works.
Only One Thing I Dislike About Tesla Motors... Their cars run on DC motors (or at least get power from a DC source). Yet the company is named after a man who is acknowledged as the father of the alternating current (at least in the US).
/methinks Tesla himself would be disappointed that "Tesla" Motor's cars require batteries, when his Black Magic Touring Car ran on free energy delivered through a "dozen vacuum tubes -- 70-L-7 type -- and other electrical parts".
Around the turn of the century Tesla concluded that it would be possible to transmit electrical power without wires. To optimise results, he chose to experiment at high altitude, where the air was thinner and therefore more conductive. As a result he ended up building a research laboratory in Colorado Springs where he conducted some of his most extraordinary experiments; tests that even to this day are shrouded in mystery. Tesla theorised that unlimited amounts of power could be transmitted anywhere on earth, without wires and with virtually no loss of energy. It is not clear exactly how he intended to do this, but right up until the end of his life he maintained that it was quite possible and that he only needed sufficient funds to make it a reality.
The funds however were not forthcoming, and Tesla was eventually forced to abandon his Colorado experiments in what was to become a recurrent feature in his life; no money or insufficient finance to pursue an idea . . . but a constant stream of new ideas.
Really? Fuck. I'm glad you've used your super-psychic powers to explain my experiences.
Or you could just be a regular tool who doesn't know what it's like to have a bad eyeglass prescription, like the person I originally responded to & others in this thread.
sounds like your eyeglass prescription is not exactly correct for you.
One visit I noticed a testimonial letter in my doctor's waiting room once about a unique approach to vision. I mentioned to the doc that I was wearing contacts. "Oh really? Let's see if they're right for you."
He got behind me, put his hands on my head, and directed me to close my eyes. After a moment, when he had a good 'feel' for the position of my sphenoid (the bone underneath the eyes), he directed me to open my eyes. His response was instant: "these are totally wrong for you. We'll have to fix this too..."
If an eyeglass prescription is NOT correct, the eyes will strain to change the level of focus, and this strain can be felt on the sphenoid (through the temples, of course).
My first prescription was only a little weaker than the prescription I started with. (1/4 diopter in the one eye and 1/2 diopter in the other). Before long, I could tell when I was due for a new prescription...
Look into developmental optometry: http://www.covd.org/. They can't evaluate prescriptions like my doctor does, but developmental optometrists have a lot to offer.
I thought I was logged in when I posted this... The list of principles were distilled from the Edgar Cayce material. Cayce really kick-started the natural movement in the 1910's -> 1940's, and was easily 100 years ahead of his time. My web site isn't very polished right now, but it does have a bit more information, and the reports are pretty good.

There's a formula for good teeth. It goes something like this:
Calcium + Phosphate + Vitamin D + (misc other vitamins minerals) -> normal teeth

. One major reason is that it's harder to operate because the output of wind generators is not constant, consistent or controllable.
I've driven past the windfarms near Tehachapi, California. Most of the windmills' blades aren't moving, presumably for the reasons you mention in your post...
Have you ever heard about Doty Energy's proposal for using off-peak wind power to split CO2 and H20 for making synthetic alcohol fuels? It makes sense to me, but then again, I'm not in the industry, nor do I have a few million $ to lend to them for a trial plant...
I seriously doubt any commercial carrier has equipped their aircraft with any super secret government gassing project.
When I read the links years ago, they said that the doping agents go straight into the jet fuel, and pass through the turbofan without causing other problems.
I used to live in the mountains, ~80 miles from Phoenix. On this particular day I looked up and noticed multiple jets in the sky, which were presumably headed to/from Los Angeles. All were at cruising altitudes. Some jets were laying contrails that rapidly dispersed and disappeared, while other contrails "hung around" and dispersed like chemtrail proponents said.
I guess the main thing is "who do you trust"? I figure this wouldn't be the first classified program ever to be undertaken...
P.S. Phoenix's humidity is very low for most the year. It spikes when it rains, then goes back down. According to this chart, average afternoon humidity only varies by 21% throughout the entire year.
I live in Phoenix and I pay attention to the skies. Haven't seen a chemtrail in a couple months. Maybe it's the summer heat (moved here in November, have seen the chemtrails elsewhere in Arizona before), maybe they stopped spraying when BP's oil volcano went off in the gulf. I don't keep logs or take pictures, so this is just from memory.
With that said, there are still planes flying in and out of Phoenix Sky Harbor International. I'm in one of the flightpaths, so I see those planes all the time. The planes that are approaching and leaving Sky Harbor never leave chemtrails. Perhaps the chemtail planes are drones...
Myself, it makes me laugh at conspiracy nuts who don't really know what they're talking about.
Maybe you live where it's cloudy most the time. If you've never seen an actual chemtrail, it's understandable to assume that they don't really exist. Arizona Skywatch has some pictures. But the site is not worthy of your visit - just something else for you to scoff at.

Most elections of any significance are rigged. While Rand Paul wasn't supposed to win his Senate primary, I'm sure the corporate media kingmakers are thinking about how they can influence the election. It'll be interesting to see how that one turns out.
Anyways, I suggest Ellen Brown's site for more on the money problem. I also like her blog posts...
Similar pains in different people are triggered by different energetic imbalances. Oriental medicine has five elements, five rhythms that run through a person: Water, Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal (Air). Each meridian has characteristics of one of the elements.
But westerners who study acupuncture try to use the same points in their trials, when the study should be designed to address the individual's specific imbalances.
I've met a few mystics in the last few years, and my experience says that people who "scoff" at the notion that acupuncture is quackery are idiots. YMMV.
The U.S. Navy used to have a research submarine that could go down to 2500 feet: NR-1 engineering and research submarine. This sub was recently deactivated, presumably because they've got something better, probably classified.
What kind of resources does the USN have that they could use in this situation? It's certainly more than what BP can call into service...
Leave BP in charge of drilling the relief well. The Navy should direct efforts to stop the gusher, and bill BP for the services rendered. BP will never be able to afford the total bill to New Orleans, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida and Cuba, so the company should be sent into receivership now.
There's an annual charity booksale that I try to go to. One year I noticed a table stacked full of Dr. Phil's books. This was on the second day, where everything was 1/2 price.
Gary Craig gave the basic EFT manual away for free. This was partially humanitarian, but it was also a way to advertise his more advanced materials which are not free. He's since retired, and I don't know if any of his advanced courses are available anymore.
Semmelweis did have evidence: his patients didn't die. His contemporaries didn't like his explanation (which was pretty good, for the time), so they ignored him. The page I linked to has a decent explanation of what happened.
Energy psychology is NOT 'pop psychology'. Dr. Phil is pop psychology, who's as worthless as they get. Really - what other book can you buy on Amazon for $.01?
People enroll in clinical trials all the time. Would you have someone live forever with an irrational fear, and let 15 years pass while research catches up with the techniques?
Gary Craig used to give his instruction manual away for free (he retired in January, and I haven't visited the site since).
In his book The Game of Life, Timothy Leary provided the following polemical definition of the Semmelweis reflex: "Mob behavior found among primates and larval hominids on undeveloped planets, in which a discovery of important scientific fact is punished"
well, it's sorta like that Semmelweis guy, who implored his colleagues to wash their hands between the sick ward and the maternity ward. But the doctors couldn't see/understand how washing their hands could possibly make a difference. So the women dropped like flies, and they avoided the hospital at all costs.
It took over 40 years for Semmelweis' insight to take hold, and countless women died needlessly. Likewise, researchers waste their time using "augmented reality" for phobias, when there are practical solutions available that are essentially free.
I once met a young woman at a late-summer outdoor gathering who twitched every so often. I looked closer, and it seemed that she didn't like bees. I inquired, and indeed, she'd been terrified of flying yellow bugs ever since she and her sister were attacked by a swarm when she was 12 years old.
It'd been 10+ years, she'd been to counseling, etc, but still no relief.
I was an amateur people-fixer then (this was 7 years ago), so I offered to help... After fumbling through a few different strategies, I remembered a certain variety of energy psychology ("acupressure for the emotions"). I walked her through that procedure. The woman felt the bee phobia as a clenching feeling around her heart (when you think about how terrible cockroaches are, where do you feel it in your body? Usually it's somewhere, some people are disconnected from such feelings).
She got rather giggly as the feeling moved out of her left arm. When it had left her body completely, I said "okay, I guess we're done now", and we went our separate ways.
She sought me out 20 or 30 minutes later: "Look, I got stung!" She was excited that her phobic response, which she suffered with for 10+ years, was gone.
Energy Psychology -- Gary Craig's Emotional Freedom Technique is the best-known -- is extremely effective. I've used it with many people since that first woman years ago, and consistently get excellent results. It doesn't fix every problem instantly, but many people find it better than anything else, and research is slowly being done.
