Good interview at gm-volt.com covering recent thoughts of Ian Clifford.

I'm not typically a political person. Most political dialogue in the USA is, to me, a little bit boring because I'm such a neophyte. But there are some issues that do get my blood boiling. Apart from my deep desire to see the USA achieve energy independence from our good friends in the Middle East, I get a bit out of sorts when I read about evil masked as legitimate government. Examples: Iran

With the rapid development of computer and information terknologi especially at this time, we are able to force us to recognize and cliver (Diibaratkan We are on the threshold of public toilets, the smell, but even if we get it) we do not know.

In some cases where high school students (SMA or SMK) already know the DOS (disk operating system) or Windows based, Linux or Head Office Basic (Word, Excel, Power Point, etc.), but once and when he was asked again (which is repeated) I do not know also what kesalahanya site? But after carefully re-examine some of the conclusions:

1. The need for educators (teachers) who have a minimum of academic training of the team that bekali in the natural and basic sciences dijejali on the computer until a later time when education, particularly Akan also the foundations of computers, and this is important before embarking on an advanced level, at the base, when Silabus and new box to accept any easier.

2. The culture of the chat at this time, with lots of software from beredarnya new software to be lower in reality because of their importance, but is still in an advanced stage, with the objective of, or strengthen, in particular in schools is not the goal, which affects students receive lessons of advanced materials or equipment not to chance.

3. That there is need for uniformity in the provision of educational materials and to avoid any secondary objectives, particularly students, will be submitted to the management system of the race, which usually enter the world of work with students secondary to most universities.

Three (3) and the above conclusion, that hope is the bar need not be repeated again in this area so that the duty of us, and educators, it can be useful for the fate of children in the country and not to mention the rise of information technology, likely starting Silabus center , when the preliminary results and round, round, and we also realize that sin is wrong.

According to the Austin Chamber of Commerce, EEStor Inc. has reported that as of July 2009 it has 33 employees on staff as revealed in a recent Chamber document listing Clean Energy companies operating in the Austin area.  I asked Jose Beceiro, who is the Director of Clean Energy Initiatives for the Austin chamber, how the list was put together.  He told me the chamber purchased a business list

Note: It is excellent to observe important traditions on a yearly basis. Unfortunately, traditions are also very difficult to launch with any confidence in their longevity. For this blog, my tradition--that I am launching now-- will be to update the essay you are about to read every year on the 4th of July. I will do this in honor of EEStor's achievements...and also because I'm anxious to

Serious followers of EEStor would be denying themselves a true pleasure by ignoring the excellent effort to generate EEStor related Haiku going on at TheEEStory (part of the unrelenting cult programming). Thus far, these fine specimens have emerged for your consideration:EEStor’s E.E.S.U.Will move an automobile250 miles, no gas!D.W. and C. N.Can they destroy Big Oil?Go United States!

I found some of EEStor co-inventor Carl W. Nelson's early research. He's been quite a mystery in the EEStory. Does anyone out there know him personally? If so, shoot me an email: eestorblog@gmail.com

Tesla landed a $465Mil DOE loan according to a Wired article.  The loan is supposed to aid the development of the Model S, a car the vast majority of Americans  (and Earthlings) can not afford.   That's an interesting amount of money to be sure.   

I watched the documentary A Crude Awakening: The Oil Crash this weekend. It was the first time I had a look at an organized view of how much oil is left on the Earth and how it impacts several things such as the environment and the economy. I think the movie makes a compelling case for a simple point: our future generations will not have the luxury of basing their economies on oil. Secondly,

Do you know what your Department of Energy is up to these days? You should if you desire to stay informed at this peculiar time in history where our dependence on fossil fuels is so directly tied to our economic security. There's a lot of good intentions out there floating around in the form of stimulus funds geared towards Energy Independence and Clean Tech. But, what are the people who we

An alert reader known as Spaceballs_3000  at TheEEStory.com has located a public record showing who are some of the investors in EEStor inc as of 2007.   They include:KCPB Holdings Inc. of Kleiner, Perkins, Caulfield and Byers.  The point of reference is listed at John Denniston. Mike Long of Terralliance (formerly of Homestore). The 2004 Topfer Gifting Trust.  This entity is associated with Dell

After months of attempts, I finally was able to have a conversation with Mort Topfer about EEStor Inc.  It was brief. Here's why:  as of 3 months ago, he is no longer associated with the EEStor project.  His decision was based on the fact that he did not want to be involved with "such an early stage startup company." He cited his age, 73, as a key factor.   B: Does your leaving EEStor imply that

CNNMoney.com writer Steve Hargreaves has a nice article out today on Ener1. The article highlights many of the same challenges EEStor will face in moving from where it is now with component testing to a scaled up manufacturing capability. No mention of EEStor in the article, meaning you the reader, are still on the fringe. How does that fringe feel to you? Or maybe, sir, you are on the

"The impossibility of EEStor's impossibility is itself Impossible, " so says a group of 3rd order naysayer believers who call themselves "Ferro-Para-analytic EEstorextentialists" at a recent online gathering of the group. "We've looked at this thing three ways from Sunday and the evidence is very clearly in our favor," said an unknown participant. When pressed to unpack the seemingly repetitive
