California's Still Killing the Diesel - 01/29/10 05:57 PM
In a follow up to my recent blog "California Kills the Diesel," I've found some pretty amazing stuff about the California Air Resources Board (CARB).
According to commentary on radio station KFI 640's John and Ken Show, documented on their website, apparent fraud exists within CARB.  One of the researchers behind this facist regulation, Hien Tran, claims to have a Ph.D. from UC Davis.  He lied to Mary Nichols, head of CARB.  He paid $1000 to a website run by a pedophile from New York on the lam in Israel for his "degree."  Nichols failed to disclose this bogus degree to members of … (0 comments)

it never rains in California, it pours - 01/21/10 12:38 AM
According to the USGS California Water Resource Center, California is expected to get a full season of rain/snow in the next two weeks.  These storms are being brought in from the west/northwest by a low altitude 200+ kt jet--just about as fast a wind as it gets on this planet.

If these storm systems pick up tropical moisture later in the week as expected, extensive flooding is possible when the warm storms melt snow at the lower elevations.  I … (4 comments)

California Kills the Diesel - 01/01/10 08:42 PM
In December, 2008 the California Air Resources Board passed the most sweeping emissions rule in the nation.  This new reguation starts this year.
According to CARB, diesel exhaust causes cancer, and swift action must be taken in order to save thousands of lives in California.  This law is intended for all of the big rigs running around the state, but it affects all vehicles with a gross vehicle rating of over 14,500 pounds.  All full sized diesel pick ups that I'm aware of have a GVW rating of at least 19,000 lbs.  Exempted are motor homes and private utility vehicles.  Fleets have … (2 comments)
