#4  What they need is to be disembodied brains in jars, living in a Sim-world where they rule like the petty gods they think they are.

#3  "Tell me why I had to be a powerslave
I dont wanna die, Im a god, why cant I live on?
When the life giver dies, all around is laid to waste.
And in my last hour,
Im a slave to the power of death.

When I was living this lie-fear was my game
People would worship and fall-drop to their knees
So bring me the blood and red wine for the one to succeed me
For he is a man and a god-and he will die too."


-Powerslave by Iron Maiden

#2  At this point, the only "energy security" I am interested in is a means, using lots of different tricks, to consume as little electricity as possible from the grid and still live well. This is because these idealistic simpletons intend to drive energy prices so high with their pathetic schemes, that it will be measured in "dollars per Kilowatt hour".

What they need is to be disembodied brains in jars, living in a Sim-world where they rule like the petty gods they think they are.
