Are there those who are Irreparably Evil?

Yet another item on Yahoo Answers, where someone asked the question, "Are some people unfixably evil?" I have some background commentary on the question I've added here to expand and amplify my comments to the original question. You might also look at… more »

I have again disabled comments

Some people (and I use that term rather loosely) using a bunch of multiple subdomains from various domains in mainland China under the .CN domain are posting lots of website addresses for various garbage sites. At least this makes sense, they're trying t… more »

I'll take Dimensions for 10, Alex

This is a rather esoteric question, and most of you probably wouldn't think of it. (Who am I kidding when I say 'most of you'? Outside of the spammers who try to infest my blog with worthless material - at my expense - there are probably less than 20 p… more »

Fossil Fuels 2: It's even more than I realized

In writing the previous blog entry, I forgot or was unaware of another point that I didn't even realize: the use of fertilizer - made from petroleum - to allow us to grow crops. So we are dependent on fossil fuels even to produce enough food to eat.… more »

Running out of fossil fuels

I answer questions on Yahoo! answers because it's fun and sometimes the questions make me learn things, even if it's just a realization of things I already knew, just hadn't vocalized it yet. A question someone asked read as follows: What will happen… more »

Welcome to My blog! This is where I store my thoughts so that I can come back to them at some point in the future. This allows me a place like a journal to keep what I'm thinking about. But anyone else is welcome to visit; I make this place public so that other people can hear what I'm thinking.

This is where I make comments on any subject I find of interest. My political comments are in the Politics section, and technical items are in the Computers section. Note, if you want to make a comment, e-mail it to me at paul@paul-robinson.us. I am sorry that I had to disable comments, but after I had deleted the 300th worthless piece of spam comment on this blog and receiving exactly zero valid comments, I decided to stop allowing spammers to excrement all over me and my blog. If you have *anything* at all to say, send it to me in e-mail; if it is even the slightest bit relevant - even if I don't agree with it, I will post it. (As soon as I find a way to stop spammers from posting junk I'll allow direct comments.) Note that if you are a visitor and post a comment, it defaults to "draft" meaning I have to approve it before it is visible, so if you're posting spam, don't bother, nobody will see it.
