U.S. shale drillers appear to be worried about losing market share in Europe to Russia, Bloomberg reported last week, citing data from a Kansas Fed survey. But this worry may be more of a hypothetical than actual problem. “Associated gas will increase as the U.S. shale drilling ramps up in future years,” an executive from the oil and gas industry told the Kansas Fed. “European demand will be further satisfied from Russian supply, reducing the U.S. market share.” Yet most U.S. gas exports haven’t been going to Europe at all this year. Instead, most American gas has been going to Asia, where buyers have been more generous with prices. In September, the Financial Times reported that Asian gas buyers have been outbidding European buyers precisely for U.S. gas.  “They… Source link

In the latest issue of The New Yorker is a long and, to me, confounding story titled: “Can Nuclear Fusion Put the Brakes on Climate Change?” The subtitle is: “Amid an escalating crisis, the power source offers a dream — or a pipe dream — of limitless clean energy.” No scientist, never mind physicist, I do understand a part of the story because it keenly evokes perhaps the eeriest episode in my career as a journalist: the brutal murder in May 2004 of Eugene Mallove, a childhood friend and high school classmate in Norwich, who, at the time of his death, was a leading exponent of cold fusion, a complicated and still highly controversial form of… Source link

The recent technological advancement in the energy front could translate into abundant low carbon energy supply; however, there are multiple problems associated with it that need to be addressed first. This article is part of the series Comprehensive Energy Monitor: India and the World Recent developments    Recent news reports suggest that fusion energy is close to a technological breakthrough. The National Ignition Facility in the US is reportedly on the verge of achieving a longstanding goal in nuclear fusion research which is to generate more energy than what is consumed. A pioneering reactor in Britain is gearing up to start pivotal tests of a fuel mix that will eventually power ITER, (International thermonuclear experimental reactor or “the way” in Latin), the world’s… Source link

I laughed at Jorge Smirnoff’s acknowledgment of my book gift. I set a simple trap for him, and he predictably fell in. He avoided stating the title of the book I gave him “A Disgrace to the Profession: The world’s scientists, in their own words, on Michael Mann, his hockey stick, and the damage to science.” Science is objective and factual. Scientists, less so. Nothing could be truer about self-declared Nobel Prize winner, climatologist Dr. Michael Mann. Mann’s hubris precedes him. Smirnoff confuses “following the science” with “following the scientists,” such as Mann. If science was never questioned, you’d still be believing Earth was the center of the universe, drinking cocaine (Coca-Cola) and giving kids heroin infused cough syrup was a good idea, using… Source link

I wish to add some comments to the editor’s page an article/letters in The News the past few Sundays. 1)      Letter – Science is about reproducible results, (or irreproducible results, see Pons & Fleishmann “cold fusion”) however, it involves peer review as well.   So, I would add that to the definition/conversation.  Although that was not directly stated I believe implied.   2)      Letter – As for ghosts, there are millions of people whose religious beliefs involve spirits/ghosts.  Let me use the example of Catholicism as I was raised in the Catholic Church.  In nomina Partris et Filii et Spirtitus Santos – In the name of the… Source link
