Sunday Ponderance

I’ve long been fascinated by the idea of going off the grid. I suspect many folks who actually do so would be on the opposite side of the political spectrum as I am. I’d like to ask them if they believe all of us should have a right to “go off the grid” for more than just energy? And if not, why not.

    We’re somewhat allowed to leave the government school grid. But not completely, we must still pay our tribute to the teachers’ unions , errrr, I mean local public schools.

    Go off the grid, as in Ted Kaczynski?

    Anybody who wants to live as he did (not counting his bombing) should be free to do so.

    However, what the Sierra Club wants is to have everybody else live as Ted did, or, if one wishes to dwell in a bigger house, heat it with solar panels and fusion reactor generated electricity (unicorn energy).

    I am not sure how Ted managed to stay warm in Montana without burning some firewood, but looking at his house (now in a museum in DC) it does not look like it was fitted with solar panels, R-5 insulation, and Pella windows.

    I do know that my fuel oil tank is 1/4 full, and that fuel oil is about triple what it was in nominal dollars than when Dennis Hastert was Speaker. I wish a natural gas line (odorized and low pressure) ran under the road and a Yellowstone hot spring were nearby, but for now I am stuck with No. 2 fuel oil, unless I spend thousands to retrofit my house. Time to call to get another 230 gallons.

  3. Very interesting details you have remarked, thankyou for posting.

    There are certainly a number of details like that to take into consideration. That is a nice level to convey up. I supply the ideas above as normal inspiration however clearly there are questions just like the one you deliver up the place an important factor will be working in trustworthy good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around things like that, but I’m positive that your job is clearly recognized as a fair game. Each boys and girls really feel the affect of only a moment’s pleasure, for the rest of their lives.
