Tuesday 5th October

Another birthday gone and over with. I’m starting to feel I’ll be 70 years old and still trying to get this whole project finished.

Oh well, at least it helps pass the time. Still, a decent beach, some surf and the chance to go fishing would make it a lot better.

Did anyone catch the own goal that the 10:10 lunatic fringe of the eco green fascists made on Friday? With their “be green or we kill you” video? I saw it Monday, they are the lunatic fringe that needs to be watched closely. Ok, real title was “No Pressure”

It lasted all of 3? hours up before it was pulled due to the widespread condemnation all over the blogosphere. So far most of their sponsors have pulled out, I’d like to think I was part of that, I spent a lot of Monday sending letters to their sponsors asking just where their brains were supporting a radical group that promoted killing everyone that disagreed with their agenda. So far Kyocera, Sony and Eaga have pulled their sponsorship, still waiting for O2 to wake up.

Franny Armstrong would have to be the most dangerous person around at the moment, apart from the more long term lunatics like Maurice Strong, James Hansen and William Connolley. Anyone who thinks we only have 4 years to cut the worlds population and stop global warming before we kill the planet is not playing with a full deck of cards. Definitely more than a few sandwiches short of a picnic as far as brains go.

What is next on the green fascist agenda? Armbands for non-AGW believers? Re-education schools? Concentration camps? Arbrecht macht frei? Any green party or organisation that doesn’t distance itself quickly from this lunatic group deserves all the oppribrium that falls upon them from now on. You would have to insane to think you could put out propaganda aimed at children and advocate killing people that don’t believe your ideology. Well ok, Nazi Germany did it, and I have no doubt so have other lunatic socialist/fascist/totalitarian groups, it still doesn’t make it right as a lot of the more strident AGW fanatic websites seem to think.

The black underbelly of the Green Party showed it ugly side finally, as I’ve thought for a long time. One of the reasons I dropped out of the Greens in New Zealand was because of their anti-everything that meant development, progress, better living, cheaper energy. And their underlying population control agenda so long as they were the ones deciding which population was going to be the one culled. Much as they have done with Africa, the middle east, Asia with malaria control, letting millions die from Malaria instead of controlling or eradicating the bloody mosquitos. And their blind refusal to let cheap electrical generation go ahead, instead pushing bloody inefficient, uneconomic windmills and pissant little solar panels. Like I’m so sure they can run an engineering shop with solar panels, or a million dollar windmill when there is no wind. But that is their whole agenda isn’t it? To stop any development, stop manufacturing, let people starve to death in the name of cutting the worlds population. Oh, and to save dear sweet Mother Gaia. Bloody Lovelock has a lot to answer for with his highjacked science fiction stories.

My Grandmother, may she rest in peace, travelled by stagecoach from Christchurch to Otira, cooked on a wood stove, used whale oil, then kerosene, lamps, then lived long enough to see people walking on the moon, 4 major wars, from the Boer war, to Vietnam, radio, movies, television, telephones, electricity, all in 94 years. Her mother spent 5 months sailing from England to New Zealand, it took me 25 hours to fly to Ireland.

And the stupid luddite loopy looney Greens think they can see into the future from here? As though nothing is going to improve, change, alter for the next million years? And using fudged, adulterated, adjusted data from so called “climate scientists” to try and prove the earth is going to fry, while all around them snow is falling.

Lunatics. Blind, unseeing, unthinking lunatics. And dangerous ones as well.

You want to cut the worlds population? It’s easy, provide cheap reliable energy, electricity to those countries without, and watch their population growth slow down and reverse. You want to cut carbon emissions? Although why I haven’t been convinced for yet, it’s easy, provide electricity so the people stop cutting down forests for firewood to cook on. It’s the biggest selling item in the Solomons, bundles of firewood, especially in Honiara, where we haven’t enough trees left to cut since the civil war, when practically every tree in Honiara was cut down for cooking fuel.

And if they were really serous about cutting carbon emissions from energy production, they’d be promoting Nuclear energy, no CO2 emissions, constant supply of energy, and good enough for countries like France to generate 80% and more of their electricity. Luddites. Lunatic fringe luddites. I admit I’m a bit wary of Nuclear in NZ, not enough stable ground that isn’t on, near or about to become an earthquake fault. But we have 500+ years of coal that we haven’t sold to China yet that we could use, and still places for hydro and geothermal plants.

And bloody stupid John Key goes ahead and cripples New Zealand with a stupid Labour Party leftover ETS catastrophe. And tries to talk about NZ becoming an Information HUB. Yeah, right John, you need cheap energy to become one of those, you’ve just made it uneconomic for any company to want to open up business in NZ.

And probably killed more New Zealand businesses as well.

Prat.

Having got that off my chest, I’ll have a coffee and find calmer things to write about.

Tomorrow.
