‘Scientists warn Trump’s border wall will be bad for the planet’
Just don’t mention the countless billions of tons of concrete being used by China and India, eh?
Leftists/”progressives”/socialists are not welcome here. Pay for your own soapbox.

They were saying yesterday that the geographic obstacles involved in building the wall rendered it nigh on impossible. The USA is a country that built the Panama Canal, the Hoover dam, the Brooklyn bridge. The transcontinental railroad, the Apollo space program, the Information Age. The Wall will be a walk in the park.
WCB, I reckon there’s some projection going on there. To academics, snowflakes and ignorant millennials anything more complicated than ordering a soy latte is nigh on impossible.
Just leave it to the grown-ups, kiddies.
And that is also the same fake news about the wall that has been going on for a decade or more.
It won’t be 1100 miles long,the simple reason being there are many places along the border where there are no roads leading up to it or even close.And a 40-50 mile hike through desert and over a mountain range acts as a natural barrier.
undamped harmonic oscillation.

The title reminded me of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge.

Exactly.
Larger turbines weigh more, requiring larger towers that demand larger foundations and pedestals for support. “There were about 300 cubic yards (229m3) of concrete conveyed by our TB 110 for each wind turbine foundation and pedestal combined,” he says, “with 270 cubic yards (206m3) of concrete conveyed for each foundation and 30 cubic yards (23m3) for each pedestal. (see Fig. 3)

You took the wind – er, the words, from my mouth.
This crisis is due to the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere, presently 400 parts per million by volume (400 ppmv), or 0.04% of the atmosphere. This is dangerously low, far less than it has been for most of Earth’s existence, and both human policy and natural climate processes threaten to reduce it below an essential minimum. Nothing bad – certainly nothing catastrophic – happened in the golden eras while CO2 was at several thousand ppmv.
The same crackpots insist that the Earth is becoming much too warm. This is also untrue. The Earth is presently much colder than it has been for most of its history, and is likely to become even colder – eventually much colder. Like previous eras of abundant CO2, nothing bad happened when Earth was warmer. But, in cold eras, glaciers destroy whole countries, agriculture suffers, humans and wildlife die in cold and snow, and large parts of Earth become uninhabitable. A cold climate, such as we have now, makes life much harder for all.

The Chinese built one. The world is still here.
The libertards are REALLY going to love the real wall- a couple of divisions of troops, armed drones and the AC-130’s flying overhead 😆
Headlines in the scumbag NZ Herald this morning:
‘Leaks out of White House cast Donald Trump as a clueless child’
I can’t think of words adequate to describe the filth who own the rag and those who work for it. And they’re responsible in very large part for the fact that so many Kiwis are uninformed and bigoted.
Steve Bannon had the right of when he spoke of the media’s ‘Zero integrity, zero intelligence, and no hard work’.
The current leftie Pope claims building a wall is anti-Christian. He forgets that he is the Leader of the Vatican the only sovereign state which is defined by, and completely surrounded by, a wall. This doesn’t say a lot about his communism (oops, Christianity.)
Yep. I saw the other day that the clown claims “liberation theology” has been good for Latin America.
Only Latin American communists.
What the hell?? I just tried to buy a used book from Amazon (US $10) and with freight and handling the bill comes to $49!
The can stick it where (well, you know where).
Try Abebooks or Booktopia, KG.
Amazon isn’t my first choice for online shopping for the same reason. Very low prices on the product, but they get it back – and then some – with the shipping costs.
I heard a guy say once that he put his kids through college on S&H.
Thanks guys – I’ll go take a look.
What are you looking for? I find all sorts in the second hand shops and will be back picking in a week or so.
Thanks Os. It’s John Greenway’s ‘Down Among the Wild Men’
The subject of a fine essay in Quadrant:
‘US academic John Greenway first visited Australia in 1955, finding himself enthralled by the country in general and Aborigines in particular. Gloriously opinionated, enthusiastic and entirely admirable, his often grim truths have seen him ‘disremembered’ for being far too honest..’

Oh, fuck – okay, so we don’t have a clue. But we’ll never find one either, if you don’t keep sending us money!”
All that concrete in one place will throw the earth off it’s axis.
Sorta like Guam flipping over.
Don’t build windmills in Guam.
Trump & The Pope
Seeking a weekend break from his campaign rallies; Donald Trump
jetted to his yacht, which was docked off the coast of Italy. He
invited Pope Francis and the press corps on board for a Saturday
afternoon cruise. It was a rather windy day. The Pope’s little hat,
his zucchetto, was blown from his head and into the water.
A crewman began lowering a boat to retrieve the zucchetto. Trump
told the crewman not to bother. Trump climbed down the yacht’s
ladder; walked across the waves, picked up the zucchetto; walked back to the yacht and handed it to the Pope. The Pope and the press corps were amazed! Donald Trump could actually walk on water!
The next morning the New York Times headline read . . . .
DONALD TRUMP CAN’T SWIM!!!
That’s almost too true to be funny, Oswald.
Hi all –
Sorry to go off-topic but this looks like good news –
http://www1.cbn.com/cbnnews/world/2017/january/persecuted-christians-to-be-priority-in-anticipated-trump-refugee-policy
At LAST! Some massively-needed common-sense in immigration policy!
It sure is, Tranquil.
As for off-topic…in case you hadn’t noticed, we’re miles off-topic already. So far, Darin hasn’t taken names or fined us for it.
It’s just you guys that go off topic,me I never,ever do that
Screening out the muzzienutters.
Yes, it can be done, and this article tells how:
http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2017/01/protecting_america_from_illintended_refugees.html
Sure, it’s no defense against the home-brewed variety, but it’s a hell of a good start to making our countries safer.

Excellent article, KG!
That “Cogito” system sounds great. I hope that a US official somewhere sees the article and passes on the information to Trump.
It works, is relatively cheap, fast and effective. Bureaucrats will hate it.

Maybe time to build a wall in the north too.
And a much longer wall in the south too.

I’ll bet you he’s paid by a bureaucrat to say what they want him to say. Science used to mean objective fact. Now it means subjective political opinion.
