Lol.

You haven't even reached phony status. You contribute nothing.


I disagree, ReefSkunk contributes more in that fish pictures thread than anything I've ever seen spew out of your keyboard.


Your face mask is too tight. I was referring to the conversation.

Speaking of liberal phonies, Rabid, who do want for Biden's VP?

Is "troll bait" the new way to say "I got nothing to say because you are obviously right?".

Enjoy my tax dollars as you drive around tomorrow.

Fish on...

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

I wonder who benefits the most from all this conflict in the US?

Just cuz energy and hydro has long been a thing for me, I gotta' correct Todd. Seattle gets about half its electric energy from 5 dams in owns and operates, 3 on the upper Skagit River, one on Newhalem Creek, and one at Boundary on the Pend Oreille River. The other half comes from a combination of BPA and other utility contracts and the energy spot market.

Puget Sound Energy generates only a small amount of the power it sells. The Baker dams, Snoqualmie Falls, and Electron (which it sold to another private company about 5 years ago) provide a small fraction of PSE's energy. A lot comes from long term sales contracts with Chelan, Douglas, and Grant PUD dams on the mid-Columbia. It's worth noting that those 3 counties couldn't secure financing on their own to build their 5 mid-C dams. It was the long-term energy sales contracts with PSE (its predecessor actually) that swung the deal to finance those big dams.

The next 2 dams on the Columbia, Chief Joseph and Grand Coulee, are major socialist projects, built and operated by the Bureau of Reclamation, whose associated irrigation projects makes much of eastern WA inhabitable and economically productive. Absent the socialism, most of that area would remain an unproductive dustbowl.

Yea socialism! Right?

The fishing is a very good for large trout and walleye right in front of my house, so Grand Coolee dam was worth it.

But it was great for large kings and steelhead right out front prior to the dam.

The local Indians were the ones harvesting those fish for sustenance, which meant it was fine to wipe out the runs to build the dam......and their villages now located at the bottom of the lake.

You are never 'Right' and you are rarely correct but you are always an Ass.
