    l watched Dick last night .

    He's all mouth and no trousers .

    l used to admire him a bit because he used to speak out .

    l am quite surprised he isn't across the concept of renewables plus energy storage .l genuinely thought he was smarter than that .

    However, l lost a whole lot of respect for him right there last night .

    He made the mistake of waffling about a subject that l'm particularly interested in and quite a bit about .

    He made a whole bunch of baseless, factless claims.

    When are these RWNJs going to get it through their heads that if you make a claim you have to follow it with hard evidence ? mad.png

    The days of Nanna agreeing with what the nice looking man said on television are over .

    People want proof. People want real examples . People want real data .

    Dick provided none of that .

    His first mistake is saying that we need " baseload power ". That proves that he doesn't understand the modern power system at all.

    Baseload power is going the way of the horse and cart . Baseload is going broke today because it is being undercut by much cheaper renewables and storage .

    Renewables plus storage is much more efficient and flexible than baseload . lt is creating efficiencies and opportunities that baseload can only dream of.

    Dick is a dinosaur looking up at the meteor and wondering what it is .
