I tend to approach things from a physics framework. And physics teaches you to reason from first principles rather than by analogy.

We are not here concerned with hopes or fears, only with truth as far as our reason permits us to discover it.

The universe really is motion & nothing else.

It is perhaps just dawning on five or six minds that physics, too, is only an interpretation and exegesis of the world (to suit us, if I may say so!) and not a world-explanation.

The amount of energy required to make hydrogen and turn it into liquid form is staggering. It is the most dumb thing that I could possibly imagine for energy storage.

Biofuels such as ethanol require enormous amounts of cropland and end up displacing either food crops or natural wilderness, neither of which is good.
