2021-07-25 Pelosi Asks Kinzinger To Join Jan 6 Investigation

Republican Adam Kinzinger joins Republican Liz Cheney on the House Select Committee on Jan 6th. Both He and Cheney are among the very few Republicans who are responsible and forward thinking members of the Republican Party and willing to forgo the dogma of the GOP in order to follow their conscience and join the Select Committee, no matter that their leaders refuse to cooperate.

This was released by Adam Kinzinger

<< For months, we have searched for answers and what process we should use to get them. For months, lies and conspiracy theories have been spread, threatening our self-governance. For months, I have said that the American people deserve transparency and truth on how and why thousands showed up to attack our democracy, and ultimately, what led to the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol Complex on January 6, 2021.

Self-governance requires accountability and responsibility. My faith requires the same of me, truth is necessary for order, and that’s what I will do. Let me be clear, I’m a Republican dedicated to conservative values, but I swore an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution and while this is not the position I expected to be in or sought out, when duty calls, I will always answer.

This moment requires a serious, clear-eyed, non-partisan approach. We are duty-bound to conduct a full investigation on the worst attack on the Capitol since 1814 and to make sure it can never happen again.

Today, I was asked by the Speaker to serve on the House Select Committee to Investigate January 6th and I humbly accepted. I will work diligently to ensure we get to the truth and hold those responsible for the attack fully accountable.

2021-07-25 Sunlight To Split H2O Into Hydrogen

<< Making hydrogen is hard, but researchers have solved a major hurdle. >>

The article doesn’t say if it’s electrolysis. But the efficiency must be better than electrolysis for it to replace electrolysis.

https://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2021-07/uota-mch071921.php

I think it might be more practical to combine a solar array, electrolytic hydrogen generator and other equipment into a single compact unit that is mass produced at the lowest cost as possible. Then it will need to be supplied with water and its output will be green hydrogen under pressure.

2021-07-25 Swap – Battery As A Service

Dave’s episode on Battery As A Service aka swappable batteries.

Seems like I have something important to say about every single topic that was brought up in this episode. I have to say that this was the first time I’ve heard the term Battery as a Service. That logically leads me to the next topic, Transportation as a Service. If the fully autonomous ride hailing becomes reality in the next few years, the prediction is that commuters will no longer need to swap or charge batteries when they can swap the whole car! Indeed, they won’t even own a car when they can TaaS to anywhere. 🤗👍 The commuter may then have to switch to a freshly charged car at a charging station and continue on with the commute.

Then, the only concern will be: Who is going to plug the empty car into the charger? Does this mean we’re going to have to revert back to the days of when service stations had attendants? Or instead of automatically putting in a new battery, the charging station will automatically plug in the vehicle?

The thought has occurred that with vehicles having modular batteries, the power supply could be a modular battery replacement that runs on hydrogen or other green fuel. Hopefully in a decade or so green hydrogen will be commonly used for most heavy transportation, either directly as hydrogen or indirectly as synfuel.

One advantage of modular battery packs is that as the battery technology improves, it will be easy to upgrade — just swap the pack and pay for greater range. I don’t remember hearing Dave mention this in this episode. 😋

2021-07-23 No More Big Oil To Blame For Suppressing Your Invention

David Cowlishaw
It has been more than ten years since that article was written / published, but there still hasn’t been a “water powered car.”

So what has been your excuse? You used the excuse that the “oil barons” took this invention and made it disappear. I know this for a fact. In the next two dozen years, the “oil barons” AKA fossil fuel industry is going to, by law, stop pumping/mining fossil fuels and all the energy required is going to be coming from renewables, AKA solar PV systems and wind turbines. The renewables will be able to generate 3 to 6 times the needed power and the excess power will be used to generate green hydrogen that will be stored and used at night and during the winter when sunlight is at minimum.

All the so-called inventors who blame the Big Oil for covering up their inventions will no longer have Big Oil to blame. The cars will be electric and gas stations will all be converted to EV charging stations. There will no longer be a need for ‘water powered cars’ because anyone with an EV can charge it for free from the solar panels on his home’s roof. There will be no need to pay to connect to the grid because homes will have battery electricity storage. They may need to be connected to the grid for heating because natural gas (from the earth) will not be allowed. The gas pipelines may be used for green hydrogen or gas made from green hydrogen. All fuels will be biofuels or synfuels, both will be green, not fuels from the earth.
