We just keep on going from amazing to more amazing and more and more amazing …..

“ Scientists have shown they are able to interpret the colour patterns seen in 100-million-year-old fossil feathers.

"The banding looks so life-like that it can't be geological in origin - it has to be biological," he said.

"But then how do you square that with the well-known fact that the majority of organic molecules decay in thousands of years?"

In 2006, researchers showed that some woolly mammoths would have sported dark brown coats, while others had pale ginger or blond hair.
The information was gleaned by analysis of genetic material extracted from a 43,000-year-old woolly mammoth bone from Siberia.
The same technique has been difficult to apply to creatures as old as the dinosaurs because of the lack of well-preserved genetic material. "

Imagine that, two 'well known facts' - "the majority of organic molecules decay in thousands of years?" and woolly is 43,010 years old ! ! ! and the feathers, my god, they ARE 100,000,000 !

AND once again ………
“ Hydrogen has long been touted as an alternative energy source to carbon-hungry fossil fuels.
One of the biggest obstacles to wider adoption of fuel-cell vehicles is the lack of hydrogen fuelling stations.
To be used as a fuel, hydrogen must first be produced using another energy source.
While some scientists are hopeful of the fuel uses of hydrogen, many others are skeptical because it is inefficient to produce, expensive to transport and to convert into electricity.
The hydrogen home refueling station works via an electrolyser which produces the gas from water and electricity.
An internal combustion generator converts the gas back into electricity to provide power for the home. ”
At school they taught us that one only gets as much energy out of hydrogen and oxygen combining as it took to separate them from water (assuming 100% conversion efficiency). YES, in fact where ever one gets ones hydrogen from it is expensive to get it AND it takes ENERGY, lots of ENERGY.
Lots of people have never gained a healthy respect for gasoline. OR propane. Have you ever seen hydrogen blow up ? Even a little tinny weensy bit of it ? ?
Remember the Hindenburg !


AND wouldn’t you know it, our efficiency boosting reliance on the super computer has gobbled up – what ? Profits ! !
“US clothing maker Levi Strauss has seen profits dive as a result of weak consumer spending and costly new software which disrupted supplies.”

Come on, everything works better with a computer hitched to it, everyone knows that ! ! !
