if you look closely as you likely are, nato has pretty well out of stuff to send ukraine. nato armies are small, untrained, without combat experience. usa is used to bullying very poor people in invasions of poor countries. none have been up against a real army.



sure, drake, but why does it matter? because what we know now is that even without china helping, nato could not stop russia if it blitzkrieged west. a few thousand arty rounds against a country that fires 80k arty rounds a day.



if i can figure this out, for sure professional military officers in africa and latin america can, and they know they can tell the usa to shut up and go home, and it will have to, because it cannot force them. usa doesn't have what it takes to fight co-ordinated, layered air defense.

composting is worth doing but not worth devoting your life to.  a lot of approaches are more trouble than they are worth.

this is the easy listening composting podcast.  if what you want is the fast version, mix it up, fluffy but not too fluffy, damp not soggy, let it heat, turn it and put the outside stuff in the core of the new pile and let it heat some more, well you just got that.

i am giving away radish seeds if you pay the postage.  available as a guest on your podcast.  i tried to put the web site here but it bombed my upload.  look for it wherever anchor puts it.  sorry but i am terrible about checking email.

an attempt to show how all these things could fit together without a lot of chemistry and physics, just a little easy stuff.

this is about how we can do recycling much better.  the technology that did not work very well is obsolete
