I went to a custom car show yesterday. Even though this is a select group of people who love their classic cars, I don't think economies of scale is going to lower the price of rare earth minerals that are mostly from South America, China and Australia. I know that the inventory of electric cars is growing and subsidies from the Biden Administration picking winners and losers is going to help the situation because nobody legislated the internal combustion engine to be gone by 2035. Maybe some states have approved of the phase-out by the next 15 or 20 years but our power grid going with wind and solar and an occasional gas fired or nuclear-powered plant is not going to cut it when we have extremely warm weather.

People are talking about golf delta climate change. We have had three mini ice ages in 1650, 1770 and 1850.

The climate change Fanatics don't want to acknowledge that the Earth has been warming up since that time. We also have had a few ice ages and warming events without the intervention of modern man.

Late last year, I went to a natural history museum in Edmonton. It showed an example of the tree line in the mountains. Many of you don't know that the tree line is the highest point of which trees will grow. Since getting altitude also lowers the temperature, there comes a point when the trees won't grow anymore and it goes to moss, lichens or even just snow or glaciers on the mountains.

They had an illustration that 50,000 years ago the earth was warmer and the tree line was higher and during the last ice age about 10,000 years ago, the tree line is a lot lower. Now the tree line is kind of in the middle so the climate change fanatics don't want to understand that the Earth has variances in temperature caused by many factors and not by man. I wish I had taken that picture when I went to the museum to be able to prove what was written in the history museum because stupid AOC and climate change fanatics won't believe me. Just like with Dr Fauci, they say to follow the science but science is supposed to allow for differences of opinion and not that their funding will be cut or denied if the premise or the outcome of the hypothesis is that man is not at fault.

I'm sure that electric cars are not going to probably exceed more than 20% of the total car market especially if the infrastructure to charge these vehicles is not upgraded. So the Church of the Green New Deal is sitting on sand or as about as feasible as a three-legged chair.

This car show gives me hope that muscle cars and gasoline-powered vehicles Will Survive. I have included two different YouTube videos in the comments. One of them is a 57 Chevy with a 555 cubic inch V8 and has over 300 Grand invested. You will see it drive by with its lopy cam.

I will also have more car pictures in the comments.

Let us not forget about the guy he didn't want to pay $22,000 for a replacement Tesla battery pack for his 2013 Tesla Model S. That will also be included in the comments.

The good thing is people are pushing back against
Dip- Sierra Hotel India Tango John Kerry because he's going to China to negotiate deals without the consensus of Congress and his employees are not accountable to the federal government only to the president so basically here is a jerk appointed official who's working on behalf of the US government even though he wasn't approved by congress.

And because it's being investigated, he won't answer anybody's questions.

His wife's family is part of a food Empire so he lies to people saying that the jet is not his but it belongs to his wife or their company and yet he flies all over the world instead of have a conference calls. Davos, switzerland, a resort in Egypt or a resort in Japan or Dubai and most bigwig Democrats and some Liberal Republicans go Neil brag about how they're going to save the world at the same time they're flying all over the world. This also includes lame duck Nancy Pelosi.

Call it green, pink, red, or purple, the future lies in something other than internal combustion energy sources for the masses.

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen we called it ground pounder express in the army. Two foot express. That way they can save the fuel for their private jets and limos.
