Here's a strange idea that just occurred to me, to further push YIMBY-ism:
Make electricity free for all those who live within a certain radius of the solar arrays.

You were expecting the storm god of the Sinai desert, maybe?

Chuckables.
Guffawfables.

...and thusly did he speed down by the banks of the sacred River Tigris in his mighty chariot.

He might have won the very first Nobel Prize, had he not passed away just a few years prior, and much too young, wasn't he in his late-30s or early-40s?

In fact, I believe that had Hertz remained alive and won his prize, the Nobel Committee would not have felt obliged to give it to Marconi a few years later.

Marconi was a back-stabbing asshole who became one of the wealthiest men in the world by abusing the gentlemanly trust of others, and coasting on someone else's technology - particularly the way crystals oscillate, and some of them serve nicely as a sort of "translation point" between electromagnetic waves and the physical apparatus that transmits and/or receives the signal.

Ah! We seem to have an MTV Latino watcher from the 90s in da house!

Tambora Sinaloense, you want that tuba sound to infiltrate the pillow and penetrate the ear.

Pray with me.

Say super geniuses who've figured out how not to blame their own mediocre self-centered inertia.

If Democracy has indeed failed in the US, it is because of soundbite-driven, intellectually lazy and dishonest about it, holier than thou, lazy, impatient and easily-angered nonvoters, as easily manipulable as the rabid, bigoted right wing.

Some of these fellows are packin' some serious heat!

Euler and Gauss... the lads.

I'm under the impression that if the proton does not decay - and there is still no evidence that it does - whatever matter is left in cold, dead stars that didn't fall into a black hole, will slowly quantum tunnel their way into becoming spheres of iron.

Also, I thought that B-E Condensates have been created in the lab, by freezing lithium atoms to a fraction above 0K, their electrons slow down, to compensate and still satisfy the Uncertainty Principle, their orbitals swell and overlap, becoming the condensate. Then when they fire up the photon gun and shoot bosons at this gel or whatever it is, they've been able to slow them down, to freeze them inside the Condensate.

So fast forward to cold stars supposedly working their way through the quantum tunnel towards iron... won't the orbitals of these atoms also swell, essentially turning the stellar remnant into a massive sphere of B-E Condensate?
If the answer is YES, there's gotta be some emergent properties in systems such as this.
