An engineer who is any good works things out. 90% of the world's
population lives on 10% of the land surface. It takes far less mass to
support a desert with SSP than it does to build an O'Neill colony.
This is obvious to any engineer. You are clearly not an engineer.

That doesn't seem so clear to the many people who have hired me to do
engineering.

I just got a shudder at the thought of that. So many it would seem
that you change jobs a lot.

Yes, that's what consultants do, you moron.

Many "consultants" are corporate failures. You used to work in the
corporate world now you have found enough fools to hire you as
yourself. Amazing!


You seem to lack any kind of scientific understanding.

I only "seem" that way to loons.

You keep using that line as your affirmation and see how the number of
loons keeps growing.

Not very fast. The biggest problem is that the loon/useful poster
ratio has increased dramatically here over the past few years.

Yes and your number of posts has been increasing, so by your own
admission you've been adding to the fodder.

Too bad your blog sucks, as you tend to spend a lot of time here
rather than there.
