The Man has it together

If you were looking for just the right no nonsense take on what we face with our energy needs, I just ran across this http://www.mannycan.com .

I can't say it's packed with facts, but, the site has links to the facts, and it's quite funny. The site features a video by hosted by a talking dummy, Manny Can (it took me a while to get it..mannequin to Manny Can)

There's numerous articles written by this character. His demeanor and southern hillbilly vernacular delivers the straight talk about the issues that we all should be concerned with.

I must say, I read the whole thing and the writer is quite talented. Typically you'll see the documentary or commercial type of propaganda, or the non profit fact driven websites. This is both, entertainment and thought provoking material and is well worth the 5 or ten minutes.

The video uses an analogy of milk production to demonstrate the functions of supply an demand on our energy costs.

What he does a good job of is pointing out the flaws in many of the environmentalists propaganda. The latest attack by a group called "Reality" (funded by a coalition of well funded environmental activist groups) was a target for Manny. He makes the point that the campaign assumes you to believe in global warming and that CO2 is causing it. Without that assumption, the ad is bogus. It's sad that today's press doesn't do what Manny is attempting to do.

At any rate, Happy New Year.
