Crop failure ahead?

As I noted at the end of my “About” page, I used to have Phalacrophobia, but I don’t anymore.

This news is for guys who still have this phobia. Great! For 150 bucks you can:

  • See if your future will be bright and shiny (or not)
  • Know if you will continue living under cover, or come out on top

The test doesn’t fix anything. It supposedly just lets you know what the future holds. In my experience, the best cure for Phalacrophobia, is just to let nature take its course… it is impossible to have a “fear of going bald” when you are bald!

My favorite bald jokes:

  • You don’t put a marble top on cheap furniture
  • God only made a few perfect heads—the rest he covered up.
  • I used to have wavy hair—until it waved good-bye!

Feel free to contribute your bald jokes and one-liners. I need some new ones!

Is this for real?

This technology essentially would extract carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and, using a form of electrochemical separation, turn it into fuel. The goal is to create a fuel that will work with existing vehicle and aircraft infrastructure.

Cool! It solves two big problems at once!

  1. Too much CO2
  2. Not enough clean fuel

Here’s what I envision it looking like:

(Maybe we will be able to fuel our jet packs with these?)

Here’s where I first heard about it.
