    You Left Out the Part About ...
    The new “X-Men” film is more than a summer flick. It’s historical fiction.
    I have never really liked the X-men.  They were badly drawn and clumsily plotted.

    The Earth Is Full
    We are in denial about the severity of the climate crisis and just how big of a response is going to be needed.
    We know. An end to carbon based fuel.  Less will only slow the disaster.
    We are already committed to most of the disaster.

    U.S. Said to Be Falling Behind in ‘Green’ Technologies
    Strong incentives in European and Asian countries have given them the lead in clean energy technologies.
    A long sad history says that enthusiasm will not substitute for cash flow.  
    We have been there and done that.  
    Oil is still too cheap. Fix the price of oil and be amazed.

    In India, Dynamism Meets Dysfunction
    Economic growth is often the product of a private sector improvising to overcome the inadequacies of the Indian government.
    A boom with a hangover.  
    This city will be gone in ten years and cost for a century if not forever.
    It is built on externalized costs.

    This is a failure of the responsibility to safeguard their customers.
    It should ruin their business.

    A Federal Study Finds That Local Reporting Has Waned
    Coverage of local governments has receded at such an alarming pace that it has left government with more power than ever to set the agenda, an F.C.C. report finds.
    "Dirty deeds are done in the dark." Reporting is better than a hearing nobody came to.  
    If no one is watching it might as well be secret.

      Nintendo Introduces a New, Touch-Screen Wii
      “Nintendo Introduces a New, Touch-Screen Wii - http://nyti.ms/k7PS4v - I'm not sure how I feel about the controller.” 
      This is not a unique response.  What was good was the console was the interface and required action.
