Watch Out, Garfield!
As much as I would like to spend many column inches tearing Triump another asshole to match Stephen Miller I pulled a muscle in my left knew which makes sitting at the computer painful. But I'll leave you with something important I learned today...
We grow corn to make ethanol for cars to burn. There are actual laws that require we do this.
The mind-fucking part of this is that a125 acre field of this corn would result in enough gas to propel a car which gets 40mpg about two million miles.
If you covered that same field with solar panels it would result in enough electric power to drive an electric car seven million miles. Seven! No CO2 released to the atmosphere and it works year-round, not just at harvest time.
Also, most of the lithium we use today to make battery packs for cars comes from recycled lithium batteries. At some point we basically won't even need to dig lithium out of the ground.
More electric cars, please, and I don't even care where they come from.
See you Monday.
