My take (as someone who lived across the street from KASE for a few years)

1) Loudest jets were private pilots who would use excessive reverse thrust to save the brakes

2) $100 million is chump change when the average single fam home sells for $25 million. Make the field private and tell the FAA to pound sand if don't like it.

3) Amory Lovins is an asshole who thinks solar panes can replace fossil and nuclear power.

Lies, damn lies, and statistics!

"While adjusted data showed that the American economy added 336,000 jobs in September (twice the consensus expectation), that only happened in the minds of government statisticians. Unadjusted data shows that the economy actually lost 885,000 full-time workers during the month."

When @home merged with them they insisted that cable company techs must install their lousy software (an internet explorer skin that locked down the default home page) and wouldn’t let us complete the job until we did. Then they wanted us to do a lengthy customer education session showing off the exite@home website. First thing we did was show the customer how to uninstall it.

Then they under-sized the connections between headends so they were always saturated during peak hours. Of course the excuse was that customers were bypassing the proxy servers because techs told them to, or that the cable lines had noise, anything but the intercity lines.

"The cost of labor for a vehicle is 5% of the vehicle," -UAW pres. Shawn Fain.

Where'd he come up with that number? If that's even remotely correct I think I'd be pretty pissed off at my union leadership for keeping us living with such a horrible deal for so long.

Unfortunately for her, that's exactly what she ended up being.
