    Piano music courtesy of Harpeth Presbyterian Church, Freddie O'Connell is doing what our leadership does best — “if you can’t solve the problem — Change the Narrative — Our “unhoused” are not the same as homeless! We say there are fewer “unhoused” we have succeeded.FYI/ the words finite and opportunity do not belong in the same sentence with "federal funding" -- they are not synonyms -- Here’s the offending line —-“An all-access pass to sidewalks, signals, service and safety…..”Translation — everywhere you go, metro will have its hand in your pocket — You must pay to walk the streets, and drive your car — A surcharge may be made for safe driving!

    Opening & closing piano music courtesy of Harpeth PresbyterianNot long ago I was reading a blog, about our power-grid, those new photo-electric cars (The Hybrids), this writer suggested that “power would be returned” to the grid when the “cars were fully charged”….Yes, it’s true that if you have a “home generation system”, like a windmill your excess capacity may find it’s way into the power grid, but not from your Prius…Here’s The 411/The current coming into your home is “alternating current” (a gift Nicla Tesla) a storage battery is “direct current”, in other words the current is consumed in order to “charging the battery’.There’s no “two way flow” of “opposing currents”….Thomas Edision’s original generating plant is still in use, and one neighborhood of the big Apricot (Thank You Superman The Movie), consumes direct current.We can thank Nicla Testla, and George Westinghouse for the development of “high voltage transmission”, and alternating current, which made “wiring the world feasible”.
