About This Blog
What this blog will eventually be about I do not know.
But it will be about how I’m coping with the loss of my wife and son to cancer in recent years and how I manage with being a coeliac and recovering from a stroke. It will be about travel, sport, engineering, food, art, computers, large projects and London, that are some of the passions that fill my life.
And hopefully, it will get rid of the lonely times, from which I still suffer.
Why Anonymous? That’s how you feel at times.

Coal plants continue to be shutdown despite Trump. The main problem is too much of the supply is getting replaced by natural gas. The US should be a wind/solar powerhouse given it is further south and sunnier than Europe with plenty of open space for turbines but we will have to wait for a new President for that to happen. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-coal-decline-graphic/u-s-coal-fired-power-plants-closing-fast-despite-trumps-pledge-of-support-for-industry-idUSKBN1ZC15A

Trumkopf hasn’t kept his promise to the coal miners.
The US has also given pumped-storage a new lease of life.

Not surprising Trump is a liar. The real issue is that natural gas is so low that it is impossible for coal to compete, regardless of environmental rules. An energy analyst has told me gas needs to be above 3.25 per million btu’s for coal to make sense. Right now it is 1.82
