quanto commented on the blog post Come Saturday Morning: Breakthroughs for Solar Power
It must be how the panels are produced, but peel and stick thin film is not new. United Solar Ovonic of Auburn Hills, Michigan was producing a flexible solar panel a few years ago that you could stick on a steel roof between the ribs of the steel panels. Unfortunately they went bankrupt.

People also need to know that your smart phone is the spy’s best friend if they can get you to download their spyware without you knowing it. Beside being able to get all the data out of your phone they can also turn on the camera and microphone to spy on you in real time. (listed under 4-a )

quanto commented on the blog post Court Rejects CIA’s Drone Secrecy Arguments Because Obama, Brennan & Panetta Made Statements
It would be great news if the rule of law actually applied to them. As we have been shown law only applies to the “little people”. My best guess is the CIA will just tell the judge “no”, ( I imagine she has already gotten a pink slip in her in box) . Obomber is still using Bush’s play book just added a few tweaks of his own.
I hate to be so skeptical, but until I see some of these sob’s frog marched to a federal pen will I start to believe in the rule of law again.

quanto commented on the blog post The Obama Administration’s Reluctance to Say Drone Strikes on US Soil Against US Citizens Are Illegal
Does the Constitution allow a US citizen on US soil who doesn’t pose an imminent threat to be killed by the US government?
Maybe Cruz didn’t get the memo but Holder already changed the meaning of the word imminent

Jon,
These are the same mental midgets that decided that MERS had standing to foreclose in Michigan, so nothing they do would surprise me.
Until the public learns that voting just name recognition instead of past history has serious consequences we’ll just keep getting the government we deserve. -
quanto commented on the diary post Hurricane Sandy – Now Comes the Back Wash! by seaglass.
Please don’t get me wrong, I believe the government is there to serve the public and step in when disasters strike, what I don’t believe in is throwing money down a hole when you know its useless. By providing low cost insurance to someone to rebuild in the same spot the second or third time [...]

quanto commented on the diary post Hurricane Sandy – Now Comes the Back Wash! by seaglass.
First, I don’t understand why the government thinks it needs to be in the insurance business anyway, all they are doing is subsidizing bad judgement to allow people to rebuild homes in high risk areas. Second , in order to supplement this fiasco their sticking damn near everyone that lives near a lake , river, [...]

At first glance you would think this would be a good thing, but you just have to know by now that his replacement will be just as “toothless”. I suspect the next head of the Criminal Division will be (civil fines only)
Eric Schneiderman. He’s already proven he can fold like Obama. -

quanto commented on the diary post Congress Vacations While Sandy Victims Freeze by Cynthia Kouril.
The important parts of this are for $ for homeowners to rebuild and they cannot hire contractors until they know the amount of the grant.
This is why the relief is being delayed. The longer they can put it off the more desperate people will become and the easier it will be for the congresses friends [...]

Isn’t their playbook titled “How to take over a country without firing a shot”
Bankrupt a country, then bring in their vulture investment firms to buy it one piece at a time, for a penny on a dollar.

quanto commented on the blog post WikiLeaks Site Operational After Major Week-Long Cyber Attack
eCAHN,
I think if he was a CIA plant they would have made a big fuss for show then dropped it. This is more to chill dissent, the US Gov. wants to show everyone what happens when you cross them, your world will be made a living hell just because they can. The same with Bradley Manning, they don’t need a conviction, they can just keep playing legal games with him until he dies of old age if they want. It has to be working otherwise the heat would have been turned up an there would be more assassinations. -
quanto commented on the blog post WikiLeaks Site Operational After Major Week-Long Cyber Attack
And the FBI sat on servers that were connected to over 4 million computers infected with the DNS Changer Trojan for months just out of the goodness of their hearts. A cynical person would suspect they used that time to plant their own program to take over the computers for just an operation when needed.

quanto commented on the blog post While Eminent Domain Proposal Discussed, LA Tries to Make Foreclosure Cost-Prohibitive
Allowing expansion of the use of eminent domain is just a bad idea. Back when railroads and highways were being build it made sense to stop the speculators with inside information from gobbling up the land and then asking an exorbitant price from the government. Lately it’s just been abused to increase the taxable property value or help out and industry.
The bankruptcy law needs to be changed to allow private persons the same rights as corporate persons. Allow the judges to cram-down a mortgage, the investors? make them prove they actually hold an interest in the property.

quanto commented on the diary post Solar Roadways: Edging Closer to Reality by Phoenix Woman.
I’m all in favor of solar, but this solution seems to have a few drawbacks. First why would you put a solar panel where the vehicles that would be using the power would be casting a shadow on the panels. It would be like putting the solar panels on the bottom of a car and [...]

David,
One thing I noticed with a quick scan through of the complaint filed is that MERS is not listed as a defendant or mentioned in the complaint. ( If I missed it could someone point me to the correct PDF please.)
