Anyone watching channel 13 will see those same ole naysayers talking about it can't happen without billions invested. actually like anything new many just can't accept an idea that is different than what they know. I FOR one hope it work's. the bulb and the pie plate were used in the u tube piece about using radio waves to burn off oxygen -hydrogen gas from sea water. nothing elaborate just something that works. way back when I was A young fella I laid out a steel retaining wall across from the snow falls picnic area in West Paris. you'd be surprised at the professional engineers that said that wouldn't work. ah that was the first job in Maine to use a 25' fiberglass rod for x-sectioning. It was decided to make a picnic area and we needed information to design it. well to make along story short after 6 weeks the design office sent back basically a blank page which said build picnic area here. last I knew except for some changes in the eighties it basically was the way the boys from bridge const. and us Eng. built it. I sure miss ole Charlie Wright, Hook Sanborn and Mother Weeks and his crew. guess what I'M trying to say is education with out common sense is like a vehicle with out an alert driver, if you don't look in every direction your headed for trouble. I for one think anything is possible ,the impossible just takes a little longer.

1. sixty minutes segment was great |
|
sorry the first part was omitted. This was about the segment on 60 minutes and the interest in radio waves that are being explored in the medical as well as energy Field's. If this works out it will help eliminate "chemo" and surgery. they estimate about 4 years before human treatment.

It kinda looks like what I imagine. At least the cat does, anyway.

I wondered what they done with all those "over weight union welders" in the winter months. I see they put their under-employment checks to good use. I worked with a pipe welder who couldn't handle the work load at "biw". He said they actually expected him to put his book down and weld. He left to go work at the tank farm in south portland.(oil tanks) oops. that isn't personal just one of the many observations I've made over the years of people working paper mill overhauls and pipe line work. the first one I worked on was the pipeline running along the haynesville stretch of rte 2. the first paper mill reconstruction was the woodland mill. their was quite a write up about me being 3rd generation at that mill. the first over haul was the jay mill. I have many family members that are union Iron workers. the rule of thumb is "milk it" it's a long cold winter!
