There's an angry wind blowing in these parts tonight

The leftovers of whatever the last storm was to batter the gulf coast. And rain, plenty of rain. The Environment Canada has little raindrops in every pictograph right through till next Tuesday.

It's wreaking havoc on the power grid. We were down for about six hours earlier today. Not as bad as down south. There's pockets of Louisiana where they're closing in on six weeks.

It does seem to me we're getting more extreme weather events, as the climate alarmists have long predicted. Since nobody's prepared to do anything serious about that, maybe we should start thinking about a plan B. (Plan A being get everybody off fossil fuels by 2030.)

A sensible start to a Plan B would be to upgrade the power grid. And here's what I mean by upgrade. 

On a night like this we're well past the threshold for shutting down the wind farms. We need to upgrade our turbine technology so we can keep these puppies humming in hurricane winds. Otherwise, there's just way too much energy going to waste.

And of course, we'll need some advances in battery technology before we can properly utilize the windfall of new energy coming our way.

I've been doing some calculations that seem to suggest if we just acidify our oceans a little bit more, the oceans themselves with be the all-time mother-fucker of all batteries!

Think it through! All you gotta do is park your EV close enough to the ocean and drop the cord in the water!
