When my ex and I were first deciding whether or not we wanted to pack our things and move to the Big Island we did a ton of research. We studied the economy, weather, school systems, colleges, etc, and in my studies I found a particular interest in the Natural Energy Laboratory of Hawaii Authority (check out www.nelha.org). I remember seeing it on a map of the island and saying to my ex , “Man, I’d like to work there someday” , just the idea of a Natural Energy Laboratory was inspiring. At the time my mother and stepfather were in Alaska for work, and we were house-sitting for them, so we used their Internet access to research this place (my ex also used it to download tons of porn-which consequently jammed my mothers computer-we had to get a professional in to unlock it LOL). When I saw all of the things they were doing at the Lab I was blown away, and then I had an idea. What if we created a series of canals and pipelines along with a slew of Natural Energy Labs all along the coastline of America and used them to irrigate our drought infested landslide? This place also creates bottled drinking water and that’s another issue that would be helped.
You can’t tell me there couldn’t be some government program created to aid in this venture.
Anyways, I could go on, but I have a play-list to create for tomorrows show and it’s already nine at night. I’m going to cut to the poop, so to speak.
Tonight I watched “An Inconvienent Truth”, the movie by Al Gore (remember him?), and I was floored at the information he presented. Basically, the world is melting, and the ocean is rising. Oh yeah, and droughts are getting worse. He’s looking for answers and perhaps this may be something to help……….We’ll see.
I don’t have the energy to create an entire show on the subject that could be ready by tomorrow morning (102.5 KCOF!!!) but I’ve already contacted the Lab and plan to schedule a meeting with someone about the topic. My goal is to put together a show along with relevant information and send it to Mister Gore. If anyone has any information that might help in any way, feel free to share, my ego is not attached to this. If someone wants to go over my head and do this exact same thing before me- HAVE AT IT. I just want to see a happy ending, I’m not worried about the technicalities. BARON!!!!
P.S. Many prayers and blessings going out to the people in the freezing Midwest, may you find warmth and safety. Also much love and light going out to the Phillipines, these typhoons are wild. It aint over, everybody, it’s only beginning to get weird. Praise and love to you all.
A good start is Common Heritage Corp.

Dr. Craven is like a mad scientist, seeminly disheveled, but an inspiration to talk to, tons of ideas on how to improve the world by creating fresh water and all that that includes, which means growing food in desert type climates.
He used to work on things like doing phone taps on Soviet undersea cables to spy on them using subs but now focuses his energies to his worthy projects. I think his projects are so simple that the big corporations aren’t interested since the projects won’t make them the big bucks.
Thanks for the lead, Baron. You da man.
A course in physical geography taught me a lot of things about this sort of thing… but not once did it ever make sense to me why Gee Dubya didn’t want to sign the Kyoto Treaty. Oh wait, money. Right. Preach on, brethren!
I know that’s so true, but really I’m hoping to dwell on the “irrigation” angle more than the “shame on you for using gas” angle…there are tons of people out there beating everyone up over the fuel issue, and the Kyoto treaty is obviously a slap in the face to the planet, but right now we could irrigate the ocean and before we know it we’ll run out of fuel and won’t have to worry about it anyways! Much love Rev.
