would a woman manage a hsehld so that some members has superheaps and others has so litl they strved to death?

ie, are women [generally - hillary clinton, margaret thatcher excepted] free from mad limitless greed for money and power, and limitless ego to justify it?

would women generally have the sense to realise that extreme wealth-power and extreme poverty-powerlessness could only be very very very bad for absolutely everyone?

the matriarchal cretan empire had 3000 years of peace and plenty [according to flinders-petrie, the great archeologist of crete] – matriarchy enables sexual freedom for male and female [since the women share the burden of children] which probably prevents pentup frustrated explosive violent sexual energy

has patriarchy become decadent, destructive, insane, and will we see a global shift back to matriarchy, sense and constructiveness?

in crete everyone had multiroom homes, which was not seen in the patriarchy till 16th C

would women have the sense to see that no one can earn a billion times as much pr hr as another worker [as some men think]? – or not?

Solar “Death Ray”: Power of 5000 suns!

The R5800 is my latest and greatest solar creation. Made from an ordinary fiberglass satellite dish, it is covered in about 5800 3/8″ (~1cm) mirror tiles. When properly aligned, it can generate a spot the size of a dime with an intensity of 5000 times normal daylight. This intensity of light is more than enough to melt steel, vaporize aluminum, boil concrete, turn dirt into lava, and obliterate any organic material in an instant. It stands at 5’9″ and is 42″ across. Unfortunately, the R5800 was completely destroyed in a storage shed fire on December 14, 2010. music: “hypnothis” www.incompetech.com provided under creative commons liscence Coming spring of 2011: Sun Runner 3 R23000 (R23K) Area of dish aperture (elliptical)= (pi x 102cm x 73cm)/4 = 5848 sq cm Area of focal point (circular)= pi(0.6cm)^2 = 1.14 sq cm Concentration Power= 5848/1.14 = 5129 then rounded down Output Power Estimate = 560 watts

Is fear of death the root of all religion?

If we accept as inevitable our own mortality, are we then free to use our resources to attempt to make life better for ourselves and those around us (including the wider community) rather the waste time and energy on who is right about which faith to follow?

Melting Cans with the Sun Solar Fresnel Lens Solar Death Ray

FAQ “can you melt cans” This video illustrates the ease of melting and burning very thin metal. For some reason, a lot of questions came in about this over the past week. The thinner the material is, the less square area it has to dissipate heat collected. This lens is extremely powerful but would have a difficult time melting a 1 inch x 1 inch block of aluminum in open air. Metal masses require a crucible to retain the heat collected or they act like a heat sink. This is why heat sinks are usually at least 3/16″ thick. Also most metals become very shunt when molten ad reflect 50% of the light,
