    $1/watt solar??

    The steam plants have elevated parabolic mirrors and capture more square footage than the sites' square footage. That can be done with solar panels as well but they have to be able to stand the heat or the infrared has to be filtered. The steam plant is capturing the heat and the current...

    $1/watt solar??

    The state of California is building a steam engine based 550 megawatt solar power station on 7 acres. That is 1800 watts per square foot. The solar panel company is keeping actual technical details to themselves but I doubt they can come anywhere near that much power per square foot. they might...

    Don't Worry, The Sky Is Only Falling.

    He knew what he was doing essentially. He had been trading for ~30 years by that time and had a brokerage just to keep his costs down. The Dow bottomed in 32 and ran up until 37 so he was a bottom fisher and caught a wave so it was his kind of market... Al Capone was net short in 29 :D possibly...

    Epilogue: Wade Cook

    It was a Wade Cook radio ad that got me interested in trading. Man that was a while back, he talked about "cash to cash", pocketing some loot same day.... I'm a smash and grab guy at heart so that appealed to me... Thanks Wade... Oh, and uh Wade, if you drop the soap in the shower just let it go ok?

    Don't Worry, The Sky Is Only Falling.

    Yeah but a trillion isn't what it used to be... Jusk kidding, sorry.. 180 trillion, I've been wondering how really big the problem is... over centuries the fractional reserve system has created something like $1500 trillion, 180t is rather more than 10% of that total. The subprime derivatives...

    The intellectual elites use climate models to predict the weather and global warming models to predict global warming .... none of it is accurate... then the political elites use those warming models to create a crisis, it's all just a political power grab.. even the evidence that the earth is...

    Photography

    That is a good idea. I have Nikon Coolpix 8700, worth about $300 now, it's a Prosumer camera and something like that will get you well into the digital age. Canons seem to be skewed more to the action photography area, do your own research and choose a camera but don't waste time, get a camera...

    man vs machine

    We've learned a bit about emotion in the recent years. It appears to be true that separating decisions from emotion is not mentally healthy... in fact, there are some brain emotional activities that occur a few seconds every time before we make a logical decision!! That throws the idea of...

    Bubbles the FED made, USA arn't you proud !

    Business cycles existed before the Fed. Assigning causality to the Fed is not very accurate. How much they modify/distort the real cycle is not something I ever tried to figure out... but it would be a fun project. They are as much a symtom as a cause since they are caught up in their own...

    99.5% fail because trading is too simple, easy, and too boring

    I'm almost there, especially if I can offload a bit of the more functional stuff to the computer. Andddd... if I might ask, whose version of "ancient principals of good investing" are you referring to there, that would be a good read for sure..
