Before we give you a PHD, please detail:

&#039;NEW,Non Nuclear CLEAN Energy Concept: The generation of unlimited ,daily, clean electricity into the national power grid, in volumes that, with implementation, will outstrip the combined output of wind and solar energy - Concept currently UNKNOWN as alternate energy provider.&#039;

&#039;Method: Currently UNKNOWN among the known methods of alternate electricity generation.&#039;

Are you holding out because you think someone&#039;s going to rip you off and make a fortune.  Are you from outer space?  

I like what you&#039;re saying.  But what are you saying?</description>

		<description>Hello

As a comment, The Obama economic policy will trigger a full US collapse, because that model cannot work. Perhaps it might sound fancy to some, but the so called &#039;rich&#039;do not constitute more than 5% of the population really..in fact it may be around 1%.

Can someone assist me in reaching McCain directly?

I contacted your government by fax and email, but since I&#039;m just a no name to world leaders, perhaps communications never reach them. ( I happen to know this from the many autoresponders internationally)
Perhaps someday soon, when you see the world markets collapse fully, you might remember my note and perhaps carry it to someone that has ears. What you see every world leader do over the next months are acts of futility..No amount of cash injection can fix the markets.
 
The &#039;root cause&#039; of everything you know from what is called, credit crisis,subprime mortgage crisis, housing correction etc ( which is really a load of bs) is UNEMPLOYMENT. If 50 Buffets injected their entire fortunes, they&#039;s still lose it all. The EU commissioner doesn&#039;t know much..he maintains &#039;the age of affordable energy is over&#039; . Did you ever wonder why, if the known alternate energy methods are all &#039;clean, AFFORDABLE energy, your utility bills are RISING fast?? I can tell you that what you know as wind and solar power now, is fleecing the nation of $ billions, and you will NEVER supply the nation with energy on those modes. The taxpayers will NEVER sustain that burden, and therefore your energy costs will NEVER be lower.
 
Notes to state depts etc get &#039;autoresponders&#039;..So, when you see the bigger collapse of your markets, that is coming along pretty soon, understand that bad things happen, when governments and world leaders think that they are somehow the superminds that hold all the answers. Just their frequent meetings usually just increase carbon emissions, and hot air increases global warming. Market collapse is inevitable..the cash injections just delay it a slight bit. For the thousands losing their jobs every single day just from financial institutions, even as &#039;bailouts&#039; happen - where do you think those thousands will get $$ to pay off  THEIR mortgages? They live in $3-5 million price tagged homes. They too have &#039;mortgages&#039; to pay.
 
I offered to FIX the global financial systems. What I mention here may just seem impossible to you, because the world you know, knows only wind,solar,biofuels etc at this time. &#039;Impossible&#039;is only so,  to people that know nothing outside their thinking.
 
Between Paulsons 3 pages, and 3 that I could lay down, the difference would be that US would regenerate in the $ trillions. Scientists,engineers and professors know how to do lots, but the building blocks of concepts define what their intelligence can do.
 
 
I can provide the US federal govt with a full , clean, non nuclear energy solution.
There are 2 stages to the generation
1- Full, uninterrupted cyclic generation of electricity.
2- Semi Cyclic generation of electricity converged over time zones.
 
This means a very wide flexibility. In both methods, the voltage output EXCEEDS the COMBINED OUTPUT of wind, solar and biofuels with the kicker being, its possible to engineer and implement at a fraction of the price you are now paying for eg. wind farms and solar farms. In a nutshell, Im saying you can get 1000X the power of all alternate known methods, for a fraction of the price now being injected into alternatives.
Remember Im saying..oil dependance will drop..you can have cheap electric fuel cells for cars..and your investments and savings will be safe again. The high price of energy will fall, because you will begin to actually have &#039;affordable&#039; clean power. Your carbon emissions will drop, as petrol powered vehicles are systematically removed.
 
 
 
NEW,Non Nuclear CLEAN Energy Concept: The generation of unlimited ,daily, clean electricity into the national power grid, in volumes that, with implementation, will outstrip the combined output of wind and solar energy - Concept currently UNKNOWN as alternate energy provider.
 
I wrote to the UN and some governments/gov depts/EU commissioner etc, on a global energy solution that  with implementation will provide more electricity than wind/solar/biofuels COMBINED.
Here are a few aspects :
 
Type: Clean,non nuclear solution with guaranteed outputs, and minimal loss.
Method: Currently UNKNOWN among the known methods of alternate electricity generation.
What I am saying : The entire energy generation methodology of the globe will change.
Oil Dependance : Guaranteed to drop systematically 
Emissions : Guaranteed to drop systematically as less use of petroleum, automatically reduces carbons.
Cost Effective: In comparison to what is now being spent on wind, solar, biofuels - implementation costs less. Models can be flexible for developed/developing countries.
Development: Because of the flexibility, it gives developers entire new direction , unlimited to a single standard.
Environment: Minimal impact. Carbon emissions will be reduced on a large scale.
Economic impact: Basically, the economies of the globe will be able to regenerate within 7-10 years. Low cost electricity, available daily and abundantly allows all sectors of societies to progress.
 
Drawbacks: 
One aspect is not possible to implement in wartorn areas with damaged or no  basic infrastructures.This drawback does not apply in developed countries like US , UK or EU.
Richer countries will need to assist poorer countries with some developments.
Monopolistic govts, who are always quick to see &#039;profits&#039; will have the ability to still charge high prices, so it will need possible international regulation .
Developers, who are also quick to hike prices for installation of even affordable stuff, will want to be quick to exploit the concept for financial gains, rather than implement with a reasonable margin, for the actual purpose of unlimited electrical generation to be realised..and their reasoning will be because of what it provides, in terms of generation capability,and profits .
Because of the sudden demand, even the producers of affordable components and materials will try to exploit the concept.
Pre- legislative work is required in congress to ensure that 80% of the work happens within US, or greed will ensure that unlegislated, US citizens will be marginalised in the face of greed, searching for cheap components.
 
Positives:
The energy output is guaranteed,daily.
Energy is possible from what I shall term a partial cyclic, and full cyclic.
Surplus can be channelled into storage too as the capability to store powergrows, especialy in remote areas.
Only govts have the capacity to really roll out the concept,and how it should happen countrywide..so it is possible for them to regulate all departments/private sector/industries aligned etc beforehand.
Only govts can allow the basis of implementations.
Only govts can oversee maintenance/upgrades/technology advancements because power generation is a matter of national security.
US will meet its emissions targets.
------------------
The above are just basics..I can list it all in much greater detail .
 
1- Launching the concept requires a global  energy summit. Only UN or a specific govt has the power to command that.
2- The concept payment is to be made by  strict pre-agreement with the US Federal Government. 
3- All developed countries can utilise it, and even developing countries ..but it is not possible in wartorn regions like Darfur etc, unless they stabilise . Its possible if the installations are secure.
4- The scale of the concept, has a global application, and can allow meeting the unrealistic targets now set, in 7-10 years. At current, you know wind,solar,hydro and biofuels combined cannot reduce oil dependance.
5- Concept implementation, is guaranteeing daily renewal of electricity into national grids, with minor fluctuations of maybe 3-10% ,with the capability to expand implementations with minimal environmental impact, and flexible modelling.
6- I am saying: If  eg.1GW is the rated output from one installation, then that 1 GW is guaranteed with only a small fluctuation , daily. This is the secondary output capability.  In the main installation capability, power is produced on a continuous ,uninterrupted basis .
7- In 7-10 years, it will allow approx 60% of petrol powered vehicles  vehicles to be totally removed. Electrical fuel cell will be a simple reality, because the electricity is fully available, by clean power.
8- Oil will still be necessary , but not as it is now, in such high global volumes.
9- There are different stages of developments- The main installations will deliver totally uninterrupted high energy , and the second stage developments offer determined periods of guaranteed output. The environmental, architectural, structural ,technical and related capabilities of the concept implementation ensure many different co-operative developments.
 
I also sent the following to the Whitehouse by Fax and Email.
 
Urgent Attention: President George W Bush.

Re: ECONOMIC SOLUTION- NEW METHOD OF ALTERNATE ENERGY.

Please understand carefully, that no degree of funds you inject into recapitalization of banks, or into the stock markets there will solve your economic problem. I can ensure that US does NOT go into a depression. Your problem, is not ‘credit crunch’ or ‘housing correction’ – Your root cause is ‘spiralling unemployment’ The best economists on the planet, cannot juggle the figures, or protect the treasury and you will see that the markets will continue to fall. Neither Paulson, or Bernanke, or anyone else can render a monetary fix because that does not address ‘unemployment’. You cannot inject $billions into kick starting ‘credit operations’ because people have to be WORKING to access credit facilities.

 

Worldwide, investors know that US citizens are losing their jobs by the thousands, daily. Even with your ‘bailouts’ – every institution is shredding thousands of jobs. Every employee in these institutions has a mortgage too. I tried sending John McCain this…apparently people in his campaign do not inform their leader  of high level information too. Contact me, if the Energy and Financial Security of the nation is important to you. If you follow all the instructions clearly, it will begin to redefine the economic path of the US, and you will find that Energy Security will allow US to change its Foreign Policy in ways that are more in cohesion with the ideas of the founding fathers of your nation.

 

I am offering you: 

1 – National and Global CLEAN Energy Solution that outputs more electrical power than Wind, Solar and Bio-fuels  COMBINED. ( Gigawatts of power)

2- Concept Implementationallows  a comprehensive Economic Plan based on millions of jobs, as the concept allows the regeneration of your steel and engineering plants nationwide.

3- Concept implementation addresses Carbon Emissions and OIL DEPENDANCE.

4- Concept implementation ignites new INVESTMENTS, and redefines the stock markets.

5- You have the ability to announce a WORLD FIRST , NEW method of Clean, alternate energy that is now unknown on the globe.

6- You will have an energy source that has 2 methods:

a) Full UNINTERRUPTED Cyclic Electricity at National Grid Level.

b) Semi- Cyclic High Voltage Energy over defined periods, that by convergence over time zones, will have the lowest intermittency ratio.

7- You can host an INTERNATIONAL Energy Summit, to present a GLOBAL ENERGY SOLUTION, also addressing the Financial Crisis.

8- Concept implementation constitutes changes to infrastructure that creates jobs from the simple level of cleaners, right up to the advanced engineers and architectural master planners.

9- OIL DEPENDANCE can be reduced by double digits ensuring that USA meets its global emissions targets long before 2050.

10- You have a full on energy solution that can begin implementation in months, and not years – the US economy cannot wait that long.

11- ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT is addressed, ensuring you have high level consistent energy with minimal environmental impact.

12- Clean, affordable, energy ensures your National Security, and affects everything from electrical FUEL-CELL technology to the everyday productivity of every product, and also the rising cost of food.

13- Effectively, you will be able to REMOVE bio- fuel production that utilises a food source. Other methods can remain in limited use as necessary.

14- Wind Power will cost Americans TRILLIONS, so current methods of alternate power will never give you ‘affordable’ energy. Apart from that, wind power is overrated, and is fleecing the nation even now, because it will take generations to cover those costs. Concept Implementation gives you more than 1000x that power output, at a fraction of that cost.

 

The above are a few basics, achievable in under 7 years. There are strict pre- conditions , and terms.

I would expect, in the light of the fact that no world leader has an answer, that you might be interested in what I propose.</description>

		<description>Here is what the &quot;Troopergate&quot; report acutally says:  

&quot;Governor Palin’s firing of Commissioner Monegan was a proper and lawful exercise of her constitutional and statutory authority to hire and fire executive branch department heads.&quot;

So what exactly did the Governor do that was so wrong?  

&quot;Governor Palin engaged in “official action” by her inaction if not her active participation or assistance to her husband in attempting to get Trooper Wooten fired.&quot;

That convoluted sentence basically means she did not put a leash on her husband when he continued to complain about the misbehavior of the ex brother-in-law (Trooper Wooten) and the slap-on-the-wrist he received from the State Troopers.

So what were the recommendations for punishment for these &quot;dastardly deeds&quot;?  A fine or even impeachment as AK legislator French hinted months ago?  No, not at all.  The recommendations included: 

&quot;The legislature should consider amending [the law] to permit those who file complaints against peace officers to receive some feedback about the status and outcome of their complaints&quot;.  

This is confirmation that the situation with Trooper Wooten was intolerable from the standpoint of the Palins who never were informed about the results of their complaints about Wooten.  The trooper had tazered his own son, threatended the life of Gov Palin&#039;s father, drank beer in his squad car, as well as issued threats against various other family members.  The State Troopers never informed the Palins what punishment (if any) Trooper Wooten had received. Little wonder that Todd Palin was incensed about this situation and kept telling people how unhappy he was that nothing had been done about his ex brother-in-law.  

The other recommendation regarded some clarification of the existing medical records release of information law.  

That&#039;s it.  No fines for Palin, no impeachment, nothing.  This goes to show that the report and its findings were much ado about nothing.  I watched a video of one of the AK legislators after the report was released (Kim Elton, D, Obama supporter) who said that the legislative council did not all agree with the findings of the report.  To paraphrase, he said that some of the legislators agreed with the whole report, some agreed in part, and some disagreed completely.  Basically the AK legislative council just voted to release the report and let is sit there like a turd in the swimming pool.  Right before the election.  October surprise.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here is what the &#8220;Troopergate&#8221; report acutally says:  </p>
<p>&#8220;Governor Palin’s firing of Commissioner Monegan was a proper and lawful exercise of her constitutional and statutory authority to hire and fire executive branch department heads.&#8221;</p>
<p>So what exactly did the Governor do that was so wrong?  </p>
<p>&#8220;Governor Palin engaged in “official action” by her inaction if not her active participation or assistance to her husband in attempting to get Trooper Wooten fired.&#8221;</p>
<p>That convoluted sentence basically means she did not put a leash on her husband when he continued to complain about the misbehavior of the ex brother-in-law (Trooper Wooten) and the slap-on-the-wrist he received from the State Troopers.</p>
<p>So what were the recommendations for punishment for these &#8220;dastardly deeds&#8221;?  A fine or even impeachment as AK legislator French hinted months ago?  No, not at all.  The recommendations included: </p>
<p>&#8220;The legislature should consider amending [the law] to permit those who file complaints against peace officers to receive some feedback about the status and outcome of their complaints&#8221;.  </p>

		<description>Fox News reported that SoS Jennifer Brunner filed an emergency petition with the Supreme Court late Wednesday requesting that the SC overturn a Lower Court ruling that requires her to set up a system that provides names of newly registered voters whose DL# or SS# on voter registration forms don&#039;t match Government records.

About 200,000 of 666,000 voters who have registered to vote in Ohio since Jan 1 have records that don&#039;t match.

House Minority Leader John Boehner of OH (R), released analysis showing ACORN received at least 31 Million in Federal Funds from various agencies since 1998.

Boehner last week called for an end to Federal Funds to ACORN following widespread reports of voter fraud by the group.

BTW, McCain gave a wonderful speech at the Al Smith Memorial Dinner in New York a couple of days ago, absolutely hilarious. He needled BO mercilessly, without it being campaign attack mode. Great stuff.</description>

		<description>Well, now we know why Obama doesn&#039;t do townhall meetings. His Joe-the-plumber/spread-the-wealth admonition is closer to the truth for Obama than America realizes. 

Trying to explain the implications of an Obama/Reid/Pelosi government to the Obot cultists is met with vacuous stares, or outright hostility. We are going to pay a very heavy price for the excesses of the Bush years.</description>

		<description>Mark Rinzel,

Palin doesn&#039;t scare me sir, but you do. Transcend her status? . . . What? . . . Like her mommy status? You know her life&#039;s gameplan? Based on what? What you have read in an overreaching, liberal press?</description>

		<description>Gaisan is right.  Obama supporters have the characteristics of a cult: faith in the leader, rather than critical analysis.

So how do you campaign against a cult leader?  Pick the most vulnerable point in the core belief and hammer away at it, again and again.  You won&#039;t get through to the true believers, but you can get through to the ones on the fence and the potential converts.  For example, how about the central theme of his candidacy - income redistribution?  

Dozens of socialist and communist countries tried it during the last century, and not a single one succeeded.  In fact they were all miserable failures.  The only ones that started building wealth in their countries were the ones that have moved toward capitalism and free markets like China.  Those that are still mired in socialism like North Korea and Cuba are economic basket cases.  Most of the developed world has figured out that socialism doesn&#039;t work.  The only people that still think it&#039;s a good idea are Barak Obama and the American Left.</description>

		<description>“It doesn’t make any sense!”  That’s what a commentator said today on the radio. He was talking about the fact that when he lays out the litany of the unsavory characters in Obama’s past… and present… who advise and counsel him, they all say “I know, I know, but I’m voting for him anyway.”

When someone says something that doesn’t make sense it usually means that he or she isn’t thinking rationally. When a whole group of people, collectively, are not thinking rationally, it usually means they’ve been dazzled, enthralled, captivated, mesmerized, and charmed by the eloquence of someone… dare I say a messiah… who promises them that all they need to do is follow Him and he will lead them to the Promised Land! 

That, my friends, is called a CULT!  That’s why it never made sense to many of us but now it does - perfect sense. That’s why all the rationality in the world won’t help… ask anyone who’s had a loved one in the grip of a cult. Cults are not democratic… cults don’t like it when any of their followers want to leave… cults have been known to kill people coming from the “outside” in an attempt to preserve the cult’s way of life… the most notorious of whom eventually became unhinged and deeply paranoid… Jim Jones.

Voting for Obama is voting for nothing less than voting for the leader of a CULT to become our next President.  Have we all gone crazy?</description>
