September 9, 10:32 PM Seems that every day you read about how successful the environmentalists have been at stopping a coal fired plant, a hydroelectric dam, or a nuclear reactor in favor of unreliable wind and solar power. This brings up a serious question, one that I would like to hear an answer from the enviros, politicians and others who are either preventing the building of these facilities or profiting from the alternatives. This would, of course, include our Connecticut governor and the entire Connecticut legislature that unanimously passed the climate bill requiring an 80% cut in carbon emissions by 2050. Throw in the entire Department of Environmental Protection while we are at it. They too are complicit. The scenario is that the Sun, as it proceeds toward the barycenter of the solar system, and slows to half its former velocity, with a fraction of its former intensity, will result in the predictions you have read here of a long deep cold spell. Some say the spell could last 30 years. Others have predicted 100 years and at least one has suggested 300 years is not out of the question and maybe even more. If this scenario plays out in concert with the environmentalists penchant for stopping every new source of power, other than wind, solar and bio-fuels, there is an extreme likelihood we will not have sufficient power to heat our homes and power our factories. There will be shortages of critical commodities. Farming will be out of the question in most of the temperate areas. Food shortages will be everywhere and starving people, and animals too, will be common even in the most affluent countries. It won't necessarily be about money. There won't be any food. There won't be any energy. There won't be any warmth, period! So the question I ask of all these people who played on our fears of man-made global warming and duped the public into accepting these draconian measures for a scam, supported by the scantiest of nebulous evidence, perpetrated, at least in a significant part, by the UN, is this. When the power sources that could have been built, but for your inane scheme, are not available along with the power that they would have produced, and will all of you self righteous opportunists who sold your souls to the UN step aside and allow those who played no part in the scam to have the available power and food? I think all we know the answer to that question. Fat Chance! But don't worry. They'll take care of you. And that's what I am worried about.

The same thing that happens in Wisconsin every winter: Drink and sex.

That's change I can believe in!
