India's Flirtation With Environmentalism Ends

bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-35340682

Reminds me of Jakob’s “I’m a Shade of Greece!” explanation for his special experience at a Toga Party…

India flirted with environmentalism for two weeks, banning on alternate days cars with odd or even licence plates… and now it’s over. They tried it, found it was distasteful, and did not like it, and grimace at the thought of a repeat.

Smog is much different from carbon emissions, in that it’s low lying, is actually harmful for human health, making the air chewy. Air shouldn’t be chewy. In India, it is, and it’s the main source for B Vitamins for a vegetarian population. That was a joke, smog has no vitamins… it just sucks the life out of you.

So here is to India, and never ending traffic, and chewy air. I’m sure there is a lot of honking and bad music going on in those traffic jams.

Correction -

India per se did not tried it. Every concerned person was aware that all that exercise would not serve any purpose before it was even started. They even asked not to try all those silly things just for the sake for being seen as doing something.

It was nothing but a political gimmick of the Chief Minister of Delhi, who is unfortunately fool and egomaniacal at the same time. Stupids can be found everywhere in the world and India is no lacking those either.

The CM of Delhi is very fond of remaining in the news in any way which he can. He does not care for anything else if he ever sees any such opportunity, no matter how remote and bizarre it may be. He will invariably go for those. He and his party even manage events like getting him slapped and black faced few times by his own party workers in public to draw the attention and sympathy. That is their political usp, which is first time seen and used in the Indian politics, and paid them rich dividends also in the last Delhi state assembly elections.

Black faced?

I’m guessing then he isn’t in Modi’s Party?

I have difficulty following party politics in India at times, I might know the states but don’t presume I or anyone really knows where the party strong holds are, or the local strong men. I can at best identify out of a lineup the guys in the news the most.

Your making him sound like a west coast liberal, here in the US. Carleas thinks he has a clever plan to fixing traffic, so umm… take a look at it:

viewtopic.php?f=4&t=189436

I recall in Hawaii, a company makes a bootleg version of the Segway, retails for about $300 bucks (overpriced for US markets)… he owns a bicycle shop… repairs his own bikes, so decided to take a adult frame for a foot powew scooter, slap a batter in it, and put solar panels and a cord on top of that, and thick plastic. When people ride it, they literally stand on the fragile solar panels, which are easy to replace (3 per US Dollar if bought from factory) if it cracks. Usually charges by cord though, but sun helps a lot.

I’ll pole around to see if I can find it, you may be able to start one, or get a person you know interested in making a equivalent. He got them neat 20 to 30 MPH, it was something absurd, I recall tourists scared riding them how fast they went.

That wasn’t about fixing traffic. Skimmers shouldn’t read Science and math topics.

lol james just stopping in to throw some barbs

Thats a better design, screw what was used in Hawaii back then, this is more efficient. Small enough you might be able to fold up and out in your work locker.

I like solar energy not so much for environmentalism (quite nasty to make actually) but rather it’s long term advantages… once you own it, it’s going to pay for itself… free energy. If you have a desk job, and know the weather is nice that day, no point in not riding thus to work, fold it up under a desk, ride it back.

The skill set is that of a basic bicycle manufacturer, someone in a shop who knows how to weld and bend pipe basically, attach wheels… not impossible to find. Competency with 12 Volt batteries, and a willingness to watch a few YouTube videos on solar cells. Its a good cottage industry for mechanics to sell to city workers. I wouldn’t leave it outside unattended, but awesome if your are a employer, or your employer allows for you to secure it indoors while you work. Perfect for jobs with no parking. Or just screwing around on your day off… a cooperative in a Mumbai slum could pump out a few dozen a day with the most rudamentry of supplies, sell it at market for three times it value, buy the parts again at the end if the day, repeat. Doesn’t require buildings or complex stock, or much knowledge in general. Lets you get around traffic, and allows for a industry to appear out of seeming nowhere… which us great as it’s just pure benefits. Recommend a few night reflectors, and a don’t ride during monsoon season sticker on each one.

James is butthurt cause he finally realized the reason why everyone was avoiding discussing science with him… wasnt cause he was so awesome, but cayse his position generally sucked. My tolerance collapsed during his dodging bullets theory. He ain’t Neo.

You know that bitch in the background of that pic?

Those shoes and that dress? I wouldn’t get to know her even if she threw herself at me. I have standards.

I was gonna say she’s a bit pasty and has some chicken legs. Needs a boob lift…maybe some implants. But small enough frame to work with. A fixer upper at best.

She needs a longer skirt and no heels, should wear more sporty clothes. Her fat density and hair suggests a former high school athlete, but she is still dressing like in high school.

You shouldn’t wear a short skirt unless you can emphasize your hips, she can’t do that, but sporty wear can pull it off. Uphill and downhill running can shape her calves and ass a bit. Longer hair is better too.

No. James just finally got enough of the super faker, being blindly ignorant, calling him and others a faker while playing the egocentric narcissist.

James are you a scientist?

I’m a Narcissist, but hardly a Egocentricist, I don’t put myself out above others unless it’s required to make a point. You mistake rhetorical devises for persona, self assureness for ‘power’, dialectics for grandure, a Jester for a King. I confronted your egoism, doesnt mean I’m a egoist in return, quite the opposite.

The purpose of devices is to get your head out of your ass. You have yours so firmly lodged up yours I’m afraid you may require surgery to dislodge it.

If I have many enemies, it’s because we have a great many fools among us, and am driven to continue the Cynic craft, as practiced by it’s philosophers from Antiquity to the Present.

Tycho Brahe had a similar ‘nose’ for science as you do. Maybe you should loosen up a bit and read up on him. Take a break from spreading stupid and study the history of science, everyone needs a vacation from themselves every once in a while.

Last time a mass midget formation was ever used to assault a castle on film. They used real arrows in the filming… the casualties we’re quite high, but claimed during a lie detector in court the causulties were all infact quite little. They were of course correct in a twisted sense.

It’s a bit tough to be one without the other.

Haha :laughing:
“I only put myself above others when I disagree with them.”
…Gyahd…
:icon-rolleyes:

You (very typically of the narcissist), only know faking being the superhero, so that is all you can see others as doing. You just try to do it better, never suspecting that they were never doing it at all.

You skim articles then try to come off as an experienced expert with a valid opinion - pure 100% ego. You go to a country once and then you are an expert at all things regarding that country, arguing with those of that country.

You are little more than a mouth.

I don’t know by what you measure being a “scientist”. By formal education, I doubt that being an engineer with a Masters in psy qualifies as a “scientist”. I consider scientists to be somewhat naive technicians. When it comes to actual, real physics and metaphysics, you aren’t going to find my match at this site, and no where in metaphysics.

The Turd tries to go over to the Science forum and play opinionated expert (despite knowing ZERO science of any kind) while doing no more than accusing and injecting off topic boasting.

What if I’m a scientist and you just didn’t know it and I said you were wrong about everything?

I would ask for you to point out the details. You would then find yourself either lacking detailed knowledge and resorting to science dogma that you could not support, find that there is merely a wording issue causing the conflict, or you might actually learn something of philosophy (ontology) that you had never suspected.

There is no actual opportunity for a scientist to discover that I am actually wrong about what I say concerning the make make of the physical universe, ontology.

Are you religious?

Not in the sense that You mean.
