(What? Yes!…Read on …)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So, when I discovered the “Perfect Application” I had happily&lt;br&gt;offered it to Christy Clark in early March 2011… well before she became the ‘interim&lt;br&gt;/ default’ Premier of BC.;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For use in reducing the yearly BC Hydro generating loss pegged&lt;br&gt;at *$7.5 million in 2006 and when oil was $60/ barrel … What would you say? … would&lt;br&gt;that not equate to over a $10 million LOSS for us in 2011 with oil @ nearly&lt;br&gt;$100/barrel plus the cost of barging it over half the way up the BC coast on&lt;br&gt;Haida Gwaii alone! (*see; &lt;a href="http://goo.gl/uza1o)" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://goo.gl/uza1o)"&gt;http://goo.gl/uza1o)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Applying, my system would result in about $2 - $2.5 million&lt;br&gt;compounding savings every year)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And this is only … (1) one example… of the 15 or more similar&lt;br&gt;isolated “Non-Integrated BC Hydro grids” where Hydro provides local electricity&lt;br&gt;by diesel generation, at comparable loss ratios.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;However, six months had past by the last Labor Day Weekend&lt;br&gt;and with still no ‘action’ from Christy except seeing her out on some of her&lt;br&gt;many ‘Celebrity Photo Ops’ during last summers’ legislative break and then only&lt;br&gt;through carefully scripted media releases, would we even hear from her, so I had&lt;br&gt;already nearly given up and quit holding my breath in anticipation of anything&lt;br&gt;progressive out of Christy Clarks’ Liberals.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yet, trust karma? or just plain good business practice, or&lt;br&gt;simply just money, (since Christy does not believe in ‘luck’, as she says…) let’s&lt;br&gt;just go with ‘sensible business practice’ and give my ‘new friend’ the benefit&lt;br&gt;of a structured enough of an education and grasp of authentic co-operative interaction&lt;br&gt;practices to have;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;researched my website on his own, then made sense of the&lt;br&gt;information to make the ‘service’ connection and applied his most sensible&lt;br&gt;application of good business practice and in conclusion, e-mailed me to offer&lt;br&gt;their factories’ facilities and service abilities for producing my system, very&lt;br&gt;competitively near Hong Kong China.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My question is, in your opinion should I sell out on …&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;MILLIONS OF OUR OWN GREEN JOBS IN AMERICA, TO CHINA ALONG&lt;br&gt;WITH THE BILLIONS/TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS in profits LOST?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Happy? … Like me, just can’t contain your Glee? … Let’s ‘share’&lt;br&gt;with Christy C.? …;)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Governor General and ‘good old Steve H. too’ ? …&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The website; &lt;a href="http://www.goodsenserules.com/id18.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://www.goodsenserules.com/id18.html"&gt;http://www.goodsenserules.c...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cheers,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tawnybill&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Willy</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 11 Sep 2011 13:45:26 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Designing the Future: New National Engineering Month Website Launches</title><link>http://nsbecanada.com/2011/02/26/designing-the-future-new-national-engineering-month-website-launches/#comment-307251032</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Sorry, ... this post was inadvertantly entered twice ...&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Willy</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 11 Sep 2011 13:24:26 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Designing the Future: New National Engineering Month Website Launches</title><link>http://nsbecanada.com/2011/02/26/designing-the-future-new-national-engineering-month-website-launches/#comment-307249050</link><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hello,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I didn't know that Canada&lt;br&gt;sponsored a color segregated engineering group, and although I miss on the&lt;br&gt;first obvious criteria of being of colored skin, so I don't know if I even&lt;br&gt;QUALIFY, however I am helping in paying your way as a Canadian Taxpayer and by&lt;br&gt;that virtue think that I might at the very least see consideration of my&lt;br&gt;engineering skills.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I designed a fuel energy&lt;br&gt;efficiency and pollution reduction system for use on internal combustion&lt;br&gt;engines, that will improve fuel efficiency by 25% and strip the exhaust gases&lt;br&gt;of 100% of its' water soluble GHGs.
