Sverdrups & Brine

Friday, July 27th, 2007

A “Sverdrup,” named after the famed Norwegian geologist who defined this unit of measure, is the largest quantity commonly used to express volumes of water flow.  Naturally, the highest volumes of water flowing on this planet are ocean currents, such as the Gulf Stream, which warms Europe and flows at a rate of of 30 to 150 Sverdrups, [...]

Monday, July 23rd, 2007

There is an interesting futurist website entitled “Evolution Shift” authored by David Houle that recently reported on “the Air Car.”  If you haven’t yet heard of the Air Car, from Moteur Developpment International in France, you aren’t alone.  We’d heard of MDI’s Air Car, but when we set out to really research the development, we [...]

That would be the Myers Motors “NMG,” a nimble electric tricycle that is officially classified as a motorcycle, and [...]

Friday, July 6th, 2007

Later today, when somewhere in this world begins the seventh day of the seventh month of the seventh year of the new millenium, the concert heard round the world will start, and global warming consciousness will continue to build.  Now we have a pledge that all 2.0 billion likely listeners will be urged to sign.  On Larry King [...]
