Some History of Biomass Fueled Devices In Hollywood.

Burning stuff: An idea whose time has finally come.

Yes folks, the cigarette isn't all that different from the wood burning stove, except the burning stove isn't usually in your mouth.

1. I won't be happy until I can throw a banana peel into a hole in my car

and then drive all the way to 1955 and back.

2. I thought Hollywood switched to artificial silicone biomass.

Supplemented with collagen and botox.

3. And a burning stove doesn't contain these...

4. You go ahead and mock Hollywood all you want. Here in Los Angeles, biomass

has been producing large amounts of our electricity for over 50 years at Hyperion. And LA has one of the most aggressive city energy plans in the US. We even use food waste from LAX to generate electricity (since 2001).

Guess you better go bomb Hyperion, too, since you consider ALL alternatives to nuclear power to be EVIL.

5. I am familiar with Hyperion. I bicycled through Dockweiler Beach daily about 20 years ago.

It was a part of my commute.

Anyone who thinks that shit at Dockweiler powers the majority of Los Angeles, or even a significant fraction of it is lacking totally in a sense of scale.
