effectiveness of solar & wind

[bubb2]

New problems with wind generators that you haven't thought about yet.

Did you miss the sidebar? They've collided with two police helicopters as well. Obviously, some of the aliens have a DWI problem. Or would that be FWI?

Anyone know if wind is better then solar?

If you are full of hot air, it favors wind gen. Your hot breath can spin the wind gen but will heat up the solar panels which has a negative effect on the panels.

20 days till launch. How much more trouble can I cause.

For reasons not worth going into here, I have had to spend a lot of time recently studying genetics, DNA, how cells work, etc. It is very complicated, and I am amazed at the variety of things that have to happen for cells to make proteins, how base pairs form DNA, how DNA is replicated, how tRNA moves amino acids around and delivers them to ribosomes, how polypeptides get folded and bent into usable proteins, etc. Did you know that DNA is copied to RNA, shuttled out of the nucleus, and then it is manipulated until it actually ends up as polypeptides that are bent into useful shapes like three dimensional puzzles ? And that those shapes sometimes come together to form things like hemoglobin that carries oxygen ? Unreal. Cells even have special proteins that come along and fix problems in our DNA as it is used to make RNA and when it is replicated, even special proteins to take the tension out of the double helix when it is unwound to make copies, it is simply incredible all of the things that go into making a cell work, into making our bodies work, there's no way to express how unbelievable it all is, how it all manages to work together. Did you know that our cells are powered by a little power plant called mitochondrial DNA that scientists suspect used to actually be a separate life form like a bacteria that somehow ended up inside of human cells, that our cells actually contain these little special DNA sequences that are symbiotic with our human DNA ? And that trees have a third set of DNA called chloroplast DNA that does photosynthesis ? How did all of this first start out, it looks like an engineering project gone crazy, it is so complex you can hardly imagine it. And to think, cells are replicating right now in your body, moving amino acids around, turning sugars into usable fuel, making hormones to send messages around in our bodies, all this activity, ceaseless, so much going on we may never fully appreciate the intricacies of it all ...

The most amazing thing about all of these incredible processes and systems, all of the intricate workings that are going on inside of us is that all of these forces can combine together and work in harmony to allow us to ... post to the solar and wind thread.

I am guessing - Denby is 20 days to launch and you launch this weekend?
