Makes me proud of fellow 12 Brovos and more than a little awestruck since I never had to do anything like that except to neutralize duds.

Great idea copy Arkansas. Or did Governor Sanders copy Putin?

I know much less than many of you but I have interpreted T. Snyder's lectures as emphasizing the Mongol aspect of Moscow as separate from the Ukraine region for centuries related to Poland, Lithuania, Prussia, Ottoman and others. This may be simplistic on my part but Ukraine appears to be...

I was involved in NRC proceedings in the 70s when the risk assessment for airplane crash into the facility involved proximity to an airport (and flight paths) and possible intentional crash of a light private plane. It was assumed that pilots of large planes like airliners would avoid the...

While I would like to agree I don't think the war is necessarily over when/if Ukraine frees all occupied areas including Crimea. If Russia has the will and the means it can essentially bomb Ukraine from long distance for an indefinite time unless Ukraine has either defenses against such weapons...

Sobering and appropriate from a trusted source. It is easy to buy into all the news you like and ignore facts you don't like. Regardless we have to support Ukraine through this struggle.

I read something recently that stated that Uranium in the Abrams armor was a major factor in using current stock. Is that correct?

For some reason I keep forgetting that Turkey is a member of NATO, probably because Erdogan frustrates me so much. Thanks for reminding me.

Query. Outside of NATO and China (and I guess Iran) who makes the weapons with the range, accuracy and other capabilities to attack the Russian sources of these attacks? Could these be purchased like the Iranian drones? What about Israel or Turkey?

I agree but we need your input as well as other Europeans recognizing that there are many points of view. For example I have extreme difficulty getting my mind around Israel issues without my biases toward Jewish history and people. We in the USA need to learn from not only you but others in...

You previously recommended this book. I find it a constant resource on American history and cultures and the nations which make up our State. Thank you for an enlightening reference.

The Owners like his ratings and the money. And it is free speech, opinion, so no one is accountable.

To say nothing about my embarrassment at a bar many years ago when a comely English lady told me to "keep my pecker up". Ok going back into hiding now.

Sacks options remind me of a remark attributed to Henry Kissinger (not someone I usually quote). He is reported to have said that during the Cold War his staff usually responded to a problem with three options 1 total capitulation to the USSR, 2 nuclear war or 3 whatever option was proposed by...

Also Putin and his butcher may be playing to the audience in Russia. Devastating Kherson may help appease those arguing for more violence against the Ukrainian population. Isn't this what Kadyrov wants? This General may be giving him what he wants.

I totally understand but this might be a setup for something short of a tactical nuke with the same result, near total destruction of a city falsely blamed on Ukraine. No one believes it but what do we do. I ask the strategists on here if there is an alternative for Ukraine to perhaps cut the...

I am concerned about a more dramatic point in this conflict. Russia just had an election where I assume mostly pro Russia residents voted. And who would voluntarily evacuate toward Russia. Wouldn't it be easy to announce an evacuation which would clear out the Russian sympathizers and then get...

I accidentally hit reply a while ago to criticize the diversion to WWII aircraft but I realized I was really learning something from the discussion even though it was not on topic. I am constantly impressed especially when this is addressed to Ukraine

According to main thread was denied before this was posted.

Sorry you feel that way. I guess we must disagree about society's obligations.

No she pays her debts. Your people are above the hoi polloi that strive mightily to get ahead and chose humanity instead of profit as a major. Sorry that you look down on people who save your a**

Ok I get your superiority. My daughter in an RN who has a significant student loan. She has taken care of mental health patients with COVID and received a pizza lunch in return. She made 60k from Vanderbilt with 1 kid in college and a 10 year old. Tell me again why she shouldn't have suffered...

Each of us has their own situation. My wife and I are in our mid seventies and I finally retired a couple of years ago. After the split and rise into the$700, I decided to sell half our TSLA which would provide us with enough cash for a very generous retirement. When I did so I promised myself...

I wonder what the robust domestic demand was. /s

I appreciate the info on here so much. Each day I check in to see where things stand. Please don't stop keeping me totally up to date on what is happening.

I seem to recall some studies in Europe where phevs were bought/leased as company cars for large numbers of employees at low prices due to incentives. The charging cords were found to be unused. On the other hand individual Volt owners in the us seemed to compete to use less gas. Confession...

More likely because Manchin said he would not vote for the union provision. It had to be dropped along with much more to get his vote.

I sympathize and agree with you feelings but this would be a terrible use of the company's resources because Tesla would lose. And how would it look if the headline is Tesla loses defamation suit. To much of the public that would confirm that the media is correct. Tesla would clearly lose...

If I remember correctly local elec. utilities have their rate and policies set by TVA. The State PSC has no jurisdiction. And TVA has little oversight. When I did my home solar project it had to be approved by TVA by within it's meager solar budget. I had to agree to sell it to TVA at a set rate...

Could Tesla use rooftop solar and megapacks in a meaningful time or manner to offset a Russian gas cutoff to Germany including possibility GigaBerlin? It seems a likely necessity in the long run anyway.

Thanks to everyone on this thread for the enlightenment each day. I do not presume to know or advice anyone. Other than some political stuff from the Brits this has been exceptional. Particular hat tip to @nativewolf for the recognition of 12Brovo combat engineers my old MOS. I liked to blow...

Which raises the question, how could you trust any agreement Putin made if you got him to the table? Clearly this should be up to Ukraine and they have their own experience with wether to trust Russia.

Just about any decision can be appealed but being successful above the trial level would be unlikely. Agreed orders will normally not be disturbed except for limited reasons like illegality. The theory is you are bound by your agreement even if you agreed to do things the other party didn't have...

T Or that all legislators get the best price possible from their friendly local dealer.

Years ago I did environmental enforcement and I got favorable treatment from various media but when the articles came out they were full of major errors. The same thing happened when I did health care litigation. They couldn't understand that medicaid is different from medicare. There was only...

I have owned TSLA for many years and at 76 am living well on the gains but I have to sell some occasionally for living expenses. I sold some at around 1200 for 2022 but now cannot resist the possibility of sub 1000 shares. Actually I put in an order for a substantial buy but frankly I hope it...

If you don't know who @jhm is you don't know much about TMC investment threads

I do but over 100k so no help for me.

What were they. I have not had a recall on my 2013 MS that I remember. There was a seat belt bolt but not a recall. Did I miss a recall?

Actually GM needs to compete with Silverado, F150 and Ram to succeed. We will know when they are serious when they try to move their customers from one GM ICE model to a cost comparable BEV.

As I recall Mobileye required access to the vechicle data to keep enhancing its system. Tesla refused.

There was some analysis and possibly a thread around 2013 -14 about what kind of car was traded in on MS. It disproved the presumption that it was rich people who wanted the newest thing. It may not be the best approach to rely on historical trends here with respect to Tesla. It is anecdote but...

Almost everyone. Are you kidding?

Thats nothing K&E slide rule

Common misunderstanding. NEPA applies to federal projects and federal funding unless a state also has a state NEPA. Only real possibility here I can see is impact on Colorado river as a navigable waterway involves federal regulation. No funding issue. State environmental impact assessment not a...

I marvel that 2 semesters of cost accounting on the way to law school actually helps even if I don't remember much.

Tesla is asking the court to issue an injunction. A permanent injunction would be issued after trial, possibly years. A preliminary injunction would be issued after an evidentiary hearing where Tesla would have a significant burden of proof and likely have to file a bond. A TRO Temporary...

Hospitals have always had a problem with kickbacks and referrals with doctors, hence the Stark law and Anti-kickback statute. However there is likely no unusual financial incentive for either docs or hospitals in the intubation situation. Frankly many patients are poor and uninsured. The health...
