  1. Yes, but the reason is ignorance, not what you say on First Town In US To Become 100% Wind Powered · · Score: 1

    There's a reason it always comes up, and namely because it actually matters.

    Yes, they _could_ use peak storage, but they don't. They're on the grid. It does matter.


    Nothing you said in that mess actually supports what you said. The poster you're replying to mooted all your points, and yet you think by restating them that it makes them "matter".

    Nothing you posted changes what GP said.

    It's just passing the bill to someone else...


    It's also paying someone else's share sometimes, and those times outweigh the times someone is paying for them. It's not hard to understand, so why is it hard for you to understand?

    You'd be wrong.

    He specifically says that the purpose of the taser is to replace the gun, and nowhere in his post does he mention it being just another alternative.


    And so rather than clarify, you jump to conclusions and begin attacking him. You're a dick, I was right.

    but that's not really what he said.


    No, it's exactly what he said, you just assumed you knew what he meant. And were wrong.

    What are you trying to say ? That an "real AC" will dehumidify while a "heat pump" will magically leave all the water in the air when it cools it down ?


    See, that's exactly my point. If you wee half as informed on the subject as you pretend, you wouldn't have to ask, because you'd know exactly what I'm referring to. That you don't proves my point, you're ignorant.

    You've just gone from junk engineering to junk physics. It doesn't work that way.


    Guess what asshat, you've gone from being wrong and ignorant to using fallacies to support you being wrong and ignorant.

    How about you start making sense and get a clue while you're at it ?


    How about you stop pretending you know what the fuck you're talking about and actually LEARN WHAT THE FUCK YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

    YOU added the retarded bit about "Evil Lefties making an issue of it for Their Own Nefarious Purposes". The difference is not subtle, and you did it intentionally because you have an axe to grind.

    Why lie?

    people would call him a hypocrite


    Despite the fact that you and others like you think this is a criticism, you are wrong.

    I would expect thinking, rational people to occasionally change their position on a subject based on the circumstances.

    The idea that once a person has taken a position that they can't change, or risk being called a "hypocrite", is ridiculous. It's a cheap trick people like you use when you don't have a real argument.

    Hypocrisy isn't always a bad thing, you're just not smart enough to realize when it is and isn't.

    Gay marriage does not have any affect whatsoever on straight couples.


    This is demonstrably wrong.

    Married couples pay different taxes than unmarried couples. With a large increase in the number of married couples (as a result of gays who could not previously marry) the tax burden of married straight couples will be affected.

    Whether that will be a positive affect or not is irrelevant, you said "Gay marriage does not have any affect whatsoever on straight couples" which is, as I have shown, wrong.

    This is not the only example of why you're wrong, just an obvious one.

    That calls into question the accuracy and validity of your opinions on the subject, as anyone with an opinion worth considering wouldn't make an easily refuted, demonstrably wrong claim like you did.

    So what's the big difference between an AC and a heat pump (except for the former being an application of the latter) ? Explain please.


    No, actually, I won't. I will tell you that in the future, if you don't understand a post you're replying to, and get told so and corrected, it's incredibly pathetic to play stupid semantic games in an effort to gloss over your previous post.

    However, there IS a difference. The fact that you don' understand what it is doesn't mean it doesn't exist, just that you're ignorant.

    As Click and Clack opined


    Fixed your mistake. What two old guys think I "need" means fuck all to me, and as an argument, you should realize how useless it is. In addition, it's no surprise to anyone that Berkeley thinks bigger autos are Satan incarnate is no more useful as the fact that oil companies think gasoline is a panacea. Consider the source works both ways.

    The 1967 VW Beetle weighed 1850lbs and had 53hp, and they worked just fine...
    in 1967. They were primitive then, though, and were never more than "basic transportation". Tell me again why your opinion of "works fine" should mean anything to me?

    There is no need to go 0-60 in under ten seconds if most cars on the road do it in fifteen seconds


    Says you. In my extensive driving experience, such a car would be insufferable. Tell me again why your subjective opinion of what constitutes an acceptable auto should mean anything to me?

    Structural engineering of cars is really only half the crash test, the other half is the size of the other car they collide with.


    And that's just wrong.

    The point you fail to comprehend is that if no one will actually buy or drive a 100mpg car, then it's a failure. So all the wonderful compromises you seem to think won't matter, do actually matter.

    When did Metallica go after people for trading their music on cassettes? Or did you mean "something similar", which realy isn't even all that similar?

    And as I recall, they went after people for trading their music without their permission. The "for which they had not paid" part is something people like you add to muddy the issue and make them seem like money grubbing whores. Not that they aren't, but your point isn't valid in the context of what actually happened.
