as you may all know there was a black out in northern california i just went 20 hours without electricity i never even realized  how addicted i am to electricity i went to kinkos copys and spent 8 dollers for 20 min of time on the internet on a computer people were nervously shopping for batteries and things to make them feel better the parking lot was full at the store i went to all the batteries were on sale there was a nervous mood in the store poeple being rude and grabbing candles and batteries running stop signs all the street lights were out there was long lines at restaurants my house was freezing cold no lights  no tv no computer no oven no stove my fence got blown over in the storm but enough of my whining theres babys being killed in iraq

Hi Tim-

I used to live in Folsom and I'm very familiar with the bizzare storms in Northern California. I used to see tornados. I kinda miss it....Anyway Hope all is well

Yes, a back up generator would come in handy for that. That and Solar cells on your roof and a windmill you would be set. Off the grid is the way to go man.

well, the question is interesting. sometimes when i see the hysteircal sms of my friends on my mobile i get really doubts; they are angry because i never answer my mobile phone. i think i could easily live without it but the question is: could i live without electricity?? hmmm...i´ll spend one evening without...after that i´ll tell you..

children are being killed in iraq... it´s true though..we are the dinosaurs of the 21st century .. i doubt we got to see the next one. we are egocentrical and lazy...and think that it´s all about IQ( if we are scientistst) and it´s all about feeling ( if we take part od greenpeace and want to no progress or save our nature) and it´s all about finding the wright measure ( if we are mad about zen & co), but we´lll never see clear. it´s like have a brain too small too see things from an objective way, and we believe in a god who wants to make us see and live things ( if we believe).
all of us seek just for a justice..... we are slaves of our own existence, day by day...that´s all probably...just another possibility between milliards and other milliards.. DO YOU REALLY THINK ONE CARES ABOUT YOU...ABOUT US????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

take care and just take it
if you have 2 choices:

1) to take it as objective as possible
2) as subjective as possible



we are all human beings ... so we relate something to another thing--- like one who isn´t able to see in the drakness




ps: read also: Imre Madach: The Tragedy of Man ; probably the only ones who think we get back to nature are our leaders : money creates the same chances as evolution ;Darwin and and all the others ... they are right, there is now justice... just change

so, take care and create...the only thing you can do in this blind world ;P

Oh my....I didn't think ca had that kinda weather!
We are in the midst of the great British floods (nothing new there then)
I have just realized...after a power cut for quite some time....that my house renovations could have been planned better.My hob and oven is electric,My heating is electric,my funky fire is ...you guessed it..electric. So no food,no heating,no hot water,ZERO!
And with all this spare time,i cant even play on my laptop(not for long anyway)
But your right...we are not in Iraq.Kinda puts things in perspective.
Hope its better for you now.
