First …ahhhh
Yet ANOTHER drawback to this new thing. It’s Sunday morning on Friday night.
Great story about a Wichita entrepreneur working on cutting edge biodiesel and hummers and gas turbines with ethanol and hydrogen.
He is currently working on Arnolds car and has GM looking at his work. Quite an article.

Hmmm, what to do, what to do!
Do I post my Sunday morning highly qualified global warming skeptic tomorrow morning in this open thread or do I post the regularly scheduled Saturday morning highly qualified skeptic?
What to do, what to do?
Bring back some of the old features, please. Will add sugar on top if it helps.
RSS Feeds, if you subscribe to the comments one, it gives you the ability to jump to the comment when you click on it.
Bring back the PREVIEW comments.
Whats up with messing with the layout.
Whats up with a generic email address…..to much interaction with the peasants with pitchforks…public…?
AUSTIN, Texas, Jan. 3 — The Kucinich for President campaign is filing a lawsuit against the Texas Democratic Party to stop the Party from excluding Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich from the Democratic primary election ballot. A co-plaintiff in the lawsuit is legendary entertainer, longtime Kucinich friend, and Texas voter, Willie Nelson.
The state party notified the Kucinich campaign today that its application for a place on the Texas primary ballot was rejected because Kucinich refused to “swear an oath” to “fully support the Democratic nominee for President, whoever that shall be.”
After all of the talk about the Kansas republicans wanting candidates to sign a letter stating they would support the republican nominee before receiving funding from the GOP pot – alas this must be a big disappointment for those high principled democrats.
Wahooo! Is this going to work with no registration?
Can we please not complain, we’ve asked for a new format forever. We get it, now lets let them play with it for awhile and see how it goes.
Ksgrm, I’d be mad too if the Dem party asked Kuc. to sign that oath. “Ms. Moon said the oath for Democratic candidates in Texas dates to the 1950s, when “people used to cross-file and file in both parties.” “
I didn’t ask for any new format.
At least they list the threads now.
But a recent comments is still needed.
ksgram,
Oh, come on…
Posting this 26 hours in the future.
Wanted to get a head start.
Hillary sucks!
I didnt ask for the new format. A better format would not be complained about much. The goal of a new format ought to focus on improving functionality first and prettiness second. The big positive differences are the alternating colors for responses and the RSS feeds. Search feature when fully in place, at least I beg for it to be a work in progress, ought to be a good addition. Maybe a few of the new changes are the WE subtle way to discourage trolls by making some things more difficult!
The new format looks good to me. I appreciate having our names at the beginning of our remarks rather than at the end. I kept getting blamed for comments entered by others. “Did you say that?” Also the alternating colors look good.
Good grief man! Did I miss Sunday morning mass?
It’s been a few days. I can be Kansas now.
I can’t get my magnifying glass to focus on this font.
How the hell am I gonna know Capn UnAmerican from JR
with this tiny crap?
Kansas,
If you have a PC, hold the control key down and then scroll your mouse wheel. The font will then become bigger or smaller as you wish.
Thanks for trying Regular but that didn’t work for me. I am squinting to read this.
Us old farts may be in trouble. You directions were probably clear as can be, but I held down the the control key, and started scrolling down with my mouse, but it just highlighted the text.
My gawd almighty! JR will insult me and I won’t be able to read it.
Edwards sucks. Hillary it looking good, but then my eyesight is going. After a few beers, hell she might not scare a freight train into leaving the tracks!
Good.
Kansas,
Try this:
Hold down Ctrl key and press “++” on the number pad.
To reduce the size, hold down the Ctrl key and press “–” on the number pad.
Damn, Russert looked silly on “Meet the Press”! Hardly worth getting up at 8 on a Sunday!
Hmmm.. . no preview function. Hell, I never used it anyway!
Old pat?
Should I even ask? Never mind.
Waa-laa! That’s it. Thanks regular.
Not bad for now.
At 7:37 PM tomorrow, I am gonna make instant coffee in the microwave an post and see if I destroy the space time continumn
Why at 737 PM? Whats special about the date or time? If you destroy the time continuum, what do you think will happen? :) ;)
Wonder how many smileys work. :P :o

“Hmmm, what to do, what to do!

What to do, what to do?”
Dear Hank Price,
It’s very simple, Hank. You should hugely impress everyone who reads the WE BLog!
Just copy/paste your “highly qualified global warming skeptic”(sic), Alan Titchmarsh, from Sen. Inhohe’s (R Exxon), “400″(sic) “prominent”(sic) “scientists”(sic) list.
Alan Titchmarch: “I’m SURE we are contributing to global warming,…”
And then, Hank Price can again call me a “nitwit”, like he has done many times before.
I wished Hillary on the news today accusing Senator Obama of changing his voting on Iraq. She has changed her vote on it enough it is hypocritical of her. Good for Obama and Edwards for tagteaming her in the debate. How many times has she changed positions? Fitting Bill keeps contradicting her stated positions and her staff have to find ways to keep his mouth closed. Mitt is going after McCain now. The Repub debates were as fun with the comments about attack ads. Clinton and Romney win the nomination and Clinton winning the election. Her supporters get their water dreams fulfilled and she becomes a bigger dictator than Bush. Romney won Wyoming and noone noticed.
