  1. Really some of you posters should look at the satellite maps of air pollution. It is an Asia problem, not just a Thailand problem. Laos, Cambodia and some other countries also burn their cane leaves, and other crop straw, and it all is part of the pollution problem. Just saying. Harvey M
  2. Those giant Windmills kill lots of birds every year. They are also high maintenance and the wind cannot be too strong as well or they have to be shut down. Green but unreliable. Solar is no good in the night, and Hydro needs mountains. Just sayng.
  3. It seems to be the high end hotels that jacked up their prices. I checked with a few guest houses in some places in Thailand and their rates are the same as before. I do not stay in 4 or 5 star hotels anyway. Harvey M
  4. I feel sorry for the women in oppressed parts of the world like Iran, Iraq, Syria, and especially Afghanistan. Especially yesterday when it was International Women's Day. Equality will never happen in the next 100 years in these countries, that is a fact.
  5. Looking at the pollution map, it seems that lots of fires are also happening in Cambodia and Laos. Maybe it is Asia that has a big issue with burning the leaves off of their crops is a problem for all of Asia. Is crop burning also the reason for Dhaka Bangladesh to have a 273 reading, or Patna India to have 237 reading? Just wondering Harvey M
  6. A lot of the world is in financial trouble, and these are countries that are not at war. My question is when was the last time the USA paid down any of its massive debt? The same goes for some European countries, and other parts of the world, when is the last time a lot of countries paid down at least some small percentages of their debt? It actually is a scary world we are all living in. What would happen if there was a global money melt down? I heard that another bit coin company has failed. Will there be any that survive? Just thinking. I am sure glad that I did not invest in bit coin, or be involved in bit coin.
  7. Yes I believe that there are 2 genders Male and Female. Then there is the alphabet soup of what people want to be called. I was a boy and called a master, then as and adult man I was called a Mister. In the last several years the requests to be called something else such as Them or They, and other titles have made every thing more complicated. Some say its a new world I guess. As a senior, to me it is the same world with people trying to make it a new world.
  8. My question is why are people blaming the truck driver and not the pickup driver? If people would quit driving when they are tired, it would help a lot. This Is Thailand and over the many years that I have visited there, I have seen many people who drive when they are tanked up on booze, or drugs, or keep awake pills. I doubt that anything will change in the next 50 years either. As I said it is Thailand. Just my opiniuon.
  9. Yes Russia used to be USSR, and maybe some of the areas of Russia will tell Vlad and his bunch. No More war, no more destroying the USSR. I hope that the war in Ukraine does have some big effect on the USSR. Just my opinion anyway. I am so glad that I am not Russian today.
  10. Is this bio metric system connected to digital ID? I am not a fan of Digital ID, too similar to the terminator movie system.
  11. Rooster, it is so good that you are back. I missed the Bangkok news, and the pictures that you post. Neil Young is not so young anymore, but then neither are you and I. Cheers Good luck on your up country drive.
  12. RIP to the woman. Those cheap helmets save you from the RTP fining you from not having a helmet on. Just saying.
  13. Tim the story of Embraer E190 E2 aircraft have smaller overhead bin sizes than a Boeing 737 or the air bus aircraft. Just my observation of these aircraft. Harvey M
  14. Hey Tim, what time of day do you usually do your week day presentations? Just curious. Harvey Marshall, Alberta Canada
  15. Thank gosh Turkey is a fairly large country, and some of these people can move within the country if transportation is provided by the Turkish government. That should be something the Turkish government leader could have thought of by now. Just my opinion of course.
  16. To buy out the properties next to the tracks to build a straight overpass rail crossing would have cost way too much for the instant valuable properties. You do know that this is Thailand we are talking about right? using the U turn design was a cost savings by using right of way land besides the railway tracks.
  17. One of my relatives in Canada told me that he only watches Fox News, and gets the rest of his stuff from his computer. I asked if He heard of Q Anon, and other sources in the computer and he still says his new sources are better than CBC, CTV, Global news in Canada, or CBS, ABC, NBC, and CNN. He likes Rebel News and a few other twitter news sources so he gave me a good laugh for my day.
  18. Welcome back Rooster, I missed you and the Bangkok and Thailand news. It was not the same with just getting Pattaya and Phuket news stories. Harvey M.
  19. Just a reminder that you could not use you computer if not for as you call them Fossil fuel, or oil. The foam in your cushy chair is also made from oil. your cell phone, tablet, key board and computer screen, even most thread that holds clothes together is mostly polyester, or OIL. Just a reminder for the Green People who think there is no need for oil, or fossil fuel. I am just hoping that Russia ends this unnecessary war. They started it by invading Ukraine in the first place.
  20. I guess the father will be made to pay the damage, as it seems this was a teen on drugs.
  21. Soup Buri, Mai Dee. That is my bad Thai. I am glad no one died, and hope this guy has learned a lesson. Does the insurance companies in Thailand void claims if the fire is caused in this way? Just curious.
  22. Considering how much pollution happens at every rocket launch from the existing launch sites, why does Thailand or South Korea want another polluting site? I am just curious.
  23. The ex president, sore loser, egotist Donald Trump is showing every one why he should not be voted into the position of President again. Please keep the swamp drained of Donald Trump. The Scottish leader has a lot more class that Trump ever has. I wonder just how many foreigners own golf courses in Scotland or England or anywhere else in the British Isles?
