HydroCar to Peace and Freedom
HydroCar to Peace and Freedom
This is the possibility I brought
up to the Kyoto Lauriates when they came to my
workplace the University of San
Diego. My reflection to help end war and armed
combat was to have the Third World countries reduce
their military arms budget by 75% and put those funds into developing, design
and/or constructing a hydrogen powered car for less
than $10,000(USD).
I stated that if this plan succeeded that
those leading Third World countries would have more
�power� than if they had purchased arms and military equipment. Because I have
a very strong belief that if the people of the United States and Canada could
get cars that did not pollute , and could run on something that could be made from
many types of resources that they would run to the dealerships selling these vehicles (see what happened with the Toyota Prius).
I also believe that many other countries would latch on to this prospect.
But sadly the Kyoto Lauriates
�pooh-poohed� the idea as not being feasible. I say: "short sighted and too �real
world� stymied are they. They have learned too much about saying no rather than
saying- why not?" Let�s promote a dream. Let�s try not only more peace, but let
us give the public a chance for long lasting freedom.

What have you done, personally, to
encourage peace and/or freedom? Please send me an email so I can list the ideas
to begin a new world. [email protected]
Leave it to Robin Williams to come up with the perfect plan
Leave it to Robin Williams to come up with the perfect plan
... what we need now is for our UN Ambassador to stand up and repeat this
message.
Robin Williams' plan...(Hard to argue with this logic!)
I see a lot of people yelling for peace but I have not heard
of a plan for peace.
1) The US will apologize to the world for our "interference"
in their affairs, past & present. We will promise never to
"interfere" again.
2) We
will withdraw our troops from all over the world, starting with Germany, South
Korea and the Philippines. They don't want us there. We would station troops at
our borders. No more sneaking through holes in the fence.
3) All
illegal aliens have 90 days to get their affairs together and leave. We'll give
them a free trip home. After 90 days the remainder will be gathered up and
deported immediately, regardless of who or where they are. France would welcome
them.
4) All
future visitors will be thoroughly checked and limited to 90 day visits unless
given a special permit. No one from a terrorist nation would be allowed
in. If you don't like it there, change it yourself, don't hide here. Asylum
would not ever be available to anyone. We don't need any more cab drivers.
5) No
"students" over age 21. The older ones are the bombers. If they don't
attend classes, they get a "D" and it's back home, baby.
6) The
US will make a strong effort to become self-sufficient energy wise. This will
include developing non polluting sources of energy but will require a temporary
drilling of oil in the Alaskan wilderness. The caribou will have to cope for a
while.
7) Offer
Saudi Arabia and other oil producing countries $10 a barrel for their oil. If
they don't like it, we go someplace else.
8) If
there is a famine or other natural catastrophe in the world, we will not
"interfere." They can pray to Allah or whomever, for seeds, rain,
cement or whatever they need. Besides, most of what we give them gets
"lost" or is taken by their army. The people who need it
most get very little, anyway.
9) Ship
the UN Headquarters to an island some place. We don't need the spies and fair
weather friends here. Besides, it would make a good homeless shelter or lockup for illegal aliens.
9b) Use
the buildings as replacement for the twin towers.
10) All Americans must go to charm and
beauty school. That way, no one can call us "Ugly Americans" any
longer.
Now, ain't that a winner of a plan. "The Statue of
Liberty is no longer saying 'Give me your poor, your tired, your huddled
masses.' She's got a baseball bat and she's yelling, 'You wanna piece of
me?'"
