Well, you have to the admire the courage and perseverance of the Black Night.

The fuel crisis is solved! There is no difference in the energy contained in your gasoline and the energy available from it to do useful Work. Genius!


That is a pretty good one. And your right of course, if this were true you could just harness all the energy of the chaotic motions of the ocean (or anything else for that matter) for cheap power.

I trust that was high sarcasm, because there are many companies doing exactly that.

The hapless releaseeabode was talking about the "ability" of the falling WTC Tower masses to "release energy" upon impact with static objects, i.e. conversion of kinetic energy to all other forms including strain energy and heat. This is a nearly 100% efficient process. This was not a discussion of Maxwell's Demon. As such, my comment was completely correct, and only a physics ignoramus would claim otherwise.
 

Strange episode that. Muddled fears of the right summarized in a list of "questions" about where the USA is headed:
Obama, Left, Internationalist, Graft, ACORN style-orgs, Revolutionaries, Hidden agenda
giving acronyms
OLIGARH
Cleverly, he notes right away there's a missing letter. He knows how to spell, and he did that on purpose app. to defy ACORN, and such, who "select their words first and then tie em all together into one word." This is annoying to him apparently so he left his one letter out (and he really wanted to include Communist but forced himself not to). Then he writes the missing letter - to drive the point home that he refuses neat little word results, it's not C but Y! OLIGARHY! He's driven home the point that he's not pulling an ACORN and picking a random but rightlly spelled acronym, but rather a non-neat one that's both loaded and misspelled. He drove that point home well.

I'm starting to wonder, really, if the whole GOP rile-up sector was secretly lobotomized early this year?

Also a comment there was great, some weird reading of Ayn Rand on health care:
The government wishes to "dish" out care indiscriminately without reason, Rand believed this to be innefficient and immoral because it discards reason

Missing the point

Not so fast. The definition helps clarify one aspect of this notion: "elite." Small group of liberal elite rulers changing this country before their very eyes. I'm sure he knows why he chose to approximate this loaded word, it's why he decided to misspell it that's the real WTF? moment.
 
Has anyone found out if the man who formally posted under the name FloydGoethe posts on any other forums? I think we may have hit the mother-load here; this fruitcake is a veritable Stundie goldmine. It's a shame all his posts here have been deleted.

Your Stundie nomination has been disqualified on account of your dishonest douchebaggery. Thanks for playing!
