    US Air has certainly had it's share of long term labor problems, dating back to the AmWest takeover of US Airlines. The pilots still aren't talking.

  • Stop-Start Realities And EV Fantasies [View article]
    I'm afraid the real inconsequential niche product will turn out to be Axion's PbC.
    Keep up the pump and dump, John...

    Been buying fake Lipitor from India via a Canadian online pharmacy for years at a fraction of the cost. Lab test results are the same.

  • The Buffett Rule: Do As Warren Buffett Says, Not As He Does [View article]
    Buffett is trying to keep the tax lawmakers honest.
    As it should be, he pays only what he must and fights for every cent.
    In doing so, he's highlighting the gaping loopholes that many others of comparable wealth exploit.

  • Dark Clouds Threaten German Clean Energy Ambitions: Global Implications [View article]
    Dave
    Thanks for the link to the PNNL study.
    I've suspected for years that utilities would benefit greatly from light vehicle electrification. It's nice to see an attempt to quantify that benefit.
    I would add that combining this with natural gas conversion for heavy vehicles would drastically reduce US crude oil imports.

  • Wal-Mart's Healthcare Initiative [View article]
    CVS has offered Minute Clinics in their drug stores in select markets for a few years now. They are staffed with PA's or NP's with a similar set of service offerings. Around $50 for a cash visit.

  • Electric Vehicle, Lithium-Ion Battery Investing For Imbeciles [View article]
    "There is no possibility that electric vehicles will ever deliver the kinds of cost reductions we witnessed during the information and communications technology revolution because the fundamental science is totally different"

    " DBM technologies, if they ever make it to market, will render today's best lithium-ion batteries useless for anything beyond portable electronics, which is the only market where they're really proven anyway. If you believe the Toyota and DBM technologies are coming, the last thing you want to own is yesterday's best."

    I believe this is some kind of cogntive dissonance.

    Also, John, you made a pretty fast shift away from lithium scarcity to a price smashing glut since I last read you.

    This article reads like you formulated the Peter Principal and Molly Ringwald bookends, then needed some filler.
    Surely you don't believe the 8Kg of non- ferrous metals stat is relevant to anything regarding transportation or investing.

  • The Old School Visionary Who Bested Steve Jobs [View article]
    Bob Galvin was the key to Moto's success.
    It was all downhill after he handed it over to his son, Chris.
    Bob was one of the few industrialists of his day with genuine respect and loyalty to his employees.

  • Are Greek Bonds Pricing In a Massive Default? [View article]
    The best thing for the Greek people is to let the govt default on their bonds a la Iceland. Bond holders are protected to an inordinate degree and placing the population in debt slavery thru austerity is unconscionable.

  • How Long Will the Dollar Be King? [View article]
    apparently, the only thing keeping the dollar in place is the lack of a suitable replacement. Not very reassuring. Trust the bankers and politicians to utilize this advantage to their gain and hasten the change.
