A friend of mine once told me, while visiting the solar-powered and heated home I had built in Idaho years ago, that I was "really out there on the foreskin of things." Well, maybe so and maybe no, but in either case I have clearly seen what appear to be the direct results of both climate change and resource shortage. And about all I can do is come back as a messenger and say, "Hey, my friends! We really need to look down the road a little bit and decide if this is the one we want to stay on. From my perspective, I don't think it is."

*Well, ok, I admit I will go back and check those out. But I promise to keep working on airships too! (I just learned that I can get helium from a certain source, and I have used hydrogen before-it has ten percent more lifting power, is one third the cost, is renewable, and can be safe if proper precautions are taken.)

Geery lived off the grid for 15 years in an earth-sheltered, solar heated home, while his kids learned in school that solar energy isn't feasible. NAPTA hosts a page on Geery's foibles in education, and explains how he got his butt fired from a tenured teaching position. Here's a short clip of his most recent solar contraption; for more on that project, and Geery's contention that the Wright Brothers took a wrong turn, please visit his airship page (hyperblimp.com). Apparently, Geery is the only one in the world to respond to Osama bin Laden, call bullshit on him and George together, and expose them for the pansy ass rich kids that they are. Unfortunately, bin Laden has been too scared to write back and explain himsself; and George is still working hard to finish his goat book.

I'm a strong believer in diplomacy. I've had enough of the Bush addministrations warmongering.
RM MerrillI'm a strong believer in diplomacy. I've had enough of the Bush addministrations warmongering.

I Say Continue... It's worth it.

As I watched the video my heart was soaring right along with your creation. An amazing feat. We need a whole lot more people willing to put it on the line and come up with solutions for the impending doom. I think that as long as we allow government to intrude on our lives and our security that doom will be here sooner than we think.
Thanks! And good luck.

A writer is a rogue goose. All other gees fly in a flock formation; every goose knows his place and time for honking. The rogue goose is undisciplined. He leaves the formation indiscriminately to have a look at it from aside. He roams back and forth, takes a peep at the leader, honks a little bit from behind, distracts everyone and writes on what he sees. Time passes and as he wants to return back to his place he discovers someone else there. Thus he either has to wait until they land for rest...

we need to communicate sometimes

I have developed a theory about 20years ago which made it possible to build a cheap solar- driven apparatus which being self- starting will pump water whenever. I even built a prototype. Well, 20 years of little distractions ( emigration, poverty, immigration, poverty, taking any job, establishing, raising a family) and now I want to revive that. We should communicate although I cannot promise a continuous string of communication. But it does look we share the passion.
