I love the fact that when I was five years old, Mad Magazine was able to look into the future and sarcastically (but accurately) describe many (but not all) of the a-holes we see in the news. https://www.madcoversite.com/mad129-15.html

OK. So where we are spending Christmas, it has a current wind chill of 0F. And you might think that is cold. But my home town made the news with a wind chill of MINUS 72 DEGREES.

Karma calls occasionally, and this week, for me, it was the punishment... my work travel got hosed, my shipments got hosed , and our cat got run up a tree. Some say you pay now or pay later. I hope this is a down payment.
Although nuclear energy has a tarnished past, it is time for a new effort to promote and grow our nuclear energy supply. #fusion holds the promise of clean nuclear energy and we should boldly pursue it. I would like to see 100 new fusion-based nuclear reactors built in the US in the next 10 years. https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/us-announce-scientific-breakthrough-fusion-energy-sources-2022-12-12/
