  • Feb 10 LA fires / climate change / insurance

    Great discussion if you espouse the sophist argument that it’s the fault of climate change. Newsom’s government has driven the insurers out by denying appropriate rate increases, failed to implement proven forest fire control methods, failed to upgrade an antiquated fire protection system and prevented the impoundment of water to reservoir capacity ( hence the ‘dry’ fire hydrants).

  • My favorite news program

    PBS Newshour is not perfect. They have made mistakes in terms of getting the facts straight, although it’s important to remember that this was only twice. There is a general bias that leans left, which is not a bad thing for me. However, they often interview conservative thinkers and politicians.

    With that said, News hour is my favorite news program. I look forward to listening or watching almost daily. This is due in no small part to the amazing hosts and journalists. Dave is very engaging ye... more
