Another Grid That Could Potentially Collapse In The Right Conditions...
Chris Keefer, the Toronto-based physician and founder of Canadians for Nuclear Energy, calls the electric grid a “civilizational life support system.”
Keefer, of course, is correct. The most critical systems in our society — medical, water, wastewater, traffic lights, telecommunications, and lighting — depend on reliable electricity. But earlier this month, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and the North American Electric Reliability Corporation issued their final report on a winter storm that hammered the northeastern U.S. last year. And that report proves that our natural gas grid is just as essential as our electric grid. FERC and NERC have repeatedly said that the two grids are intertwined, interdependent, and irreplaceable. Indeed, a reliable and resilient natural gas grid is critical to our energy security, and therefore, our national security.
Put short, policymakers ignore the importance of the gas pipeline system at our extreme peril.

It's Time To Start Thinking More and More About Retiring...
It would be nice to find a small island somewhere.
Where you can live cheap and enjoy the
golden years of all the decades of your hard labor.
... oh, to dream

Some Interesting Shows I Have Watched Over The Past Few Weeks....
As the clock ticks forward and the daylight hours dwindle I don't spend as much time outside
as in the nicer months. I get my chores done and retire to the homestead.
During the past couple weeks, I have been able to grab some time to sit and check out the offerings
on the TV. We dumped the regular cable and use Hulu, Amazon Prime, Netflix etc.
The MSM and regular TV shows I can't stand so those are a no go. I don't even bother
with the bread and circus of sporting events. Nope , none, nada.
Anyway, before someone gets their panties in a wad because I am going to mention Netflix,
I get it. But, at some point, it's mindless entertainment, and I'm ok with that on a limited basis.
One show, not on my list to share was the 2020 ( I think) Larry the Cable Guy special. I had
some good therapy from the laughter I enjoyed.
Anyway, back to the shows that I really got lost in.
Again, these were documentaries that can be filmed and massaged to fit the narrative of the producers,
directors, investors, editors etc. If watched with an open, aware mind frame , they were definitely
eye-opening and worth the time. IMHO. YMMV. WYSIWYG.
First up was Meltdown: Three Mile Island. I was young back then and didn't realize how close we came to disaster. Four Episodes.
Second up was Painkiller, about the pharmaceutical family that created Oxycontin and the devastation the addiction of the drug left on this country. Six episodes.
Finally, last night, was Downfall, The Case Against Boeing. This one exposed the issues surrounding the MAX 737 crashes and investigations.
As I was watching this documentary I became aware that this one story can be expanded to include the direction of where this country is going. The almighty dollar, corporate greed, lies, omission of critical information, etc.
If you get a chance to catch any of these or if you have watched them, please comment your thoughts.
Yes, I know it's Netflix and yes I am aware that they have agendas are being pushed both in-your-face and subliminally on a constant basis. They aren't going to go out of business if I don't watch a few shows. I do boycott most of the idiotic actors and musicians that don't just shut up and think I need their opinions on politics and leftist ideals.
Enjoy your Sunday, the salt mine calls...
