Uncle Steve's Planet: Green River Baetis hatch
http://uncsteve.blogspot.com/2013/04/green-river-baetis-hatch.html
My Way, or the Highway. Friday, April 19, 2013. Green River Baetis hatch. April is the most holy month of the Baetis dun emergence on The Green River and the nexus of nice spring weather. In no other month can the angler witness so much surface activity and take so many foolish trout with such ease and on banker's hours. But a few key points must be observed or even the best hand with a fly rod will utterly fail. 1 no flock fishing; stalk. The banks for a single consistent riser. 5 Match the hatch:.

Uncle Steve's Planet: Jenner and "different strokes for different folks"
http://uncsteve.blogspot.com/2010/05/jenner-and-different-strokes-for.html
My Way, or the Highway. Wednesday, May 12, 2010. Jenner and "different strokes for different folks". Musing today, as I walked down my street, of the greatest accomplishments of the human race, it seems to me that respect for the ideas of others has led to more relief of suffering than any other single idea of mankind. Decades before Jenner popularized his vaccine. Maybe he felt the heat from colleagues and backed off out of fear of damage to his reputation. English doctors scoffed at such outrageous bla...

Uncle Steve's Planet: Corporate Governance in America
http://uncsteve.blogspot.com/2010/05/corporate-governance-in-america-carl.html
My Way, or the Highway. Tuesday, May 25, 2010. Corporate Governance in America. Carl Linnaeus, the Swedish naturalist, commenting on the North American carnivorous Venus Flytrap declared it was “against the order of nature as willed by God”. I presume that he made the assumption that plants were by design far too beautiful, peaceful and innocent to cruelly devour other critters. Or maybe that plants eating insects couldn’t be so, since in Europe “it just isn’t done”. BP plc [public limited company] with ...

Uncle Steve's Planet: The Enemy Within
http://uncsteve.blogspot.com/2010/05/hey-as-i-read-more-of-blame-game-about.html
My Way, or the Highway. Saturday, May 29, 2010. As i read more of the blame game about the Deepwater. And blowout, I thought of the famous quotation of Pogo by cartoonist. Which ran on Earth Day back in 1970. The cartoon is shown above. The Gulf Coast beaches could easily be substituted for the T- rashed. Forest. The beaches would be covered with a stinking slurry of dead fish, birds and axle grease. Along with the aroma of sour gas topped off with an assortment of plastic water bottles. We can have hydr...

Uncle Steve's Planet: BP oil spill, the solution to pollution
http://uncsteve.blogspot.com/2010/05/bp-oil-spill-response-inadequate.html
My Way, or the Highway. Friday, May 14, 2010. BP oil spill, the solution to pollution. Spokesman states, "the estimated rate of flow would not effect either the direction or the scale of our response, which is the largest in history.". I could not disagree more. the magnitude of the leak is critical to the response. If a patient is undergoing major surgery, has stable vital signs and has a little bleeding which you can easily be controlled then the surgeon does so and proceeds with the procedure. Packs, ...

Uncle Steve's Planet: Easter Island party
http://uncsteve.blogspot.com/2010/05/easter-island-party.html
My Way, or the Highway. Sunday, May 16, 2010. After reading about Easter Island in j. diamond's book collapse, chilling parallels. With the USA are obvious. The islanders were encouraged to build larger and yet larger monuments to their gods as manifest be the ever increasing size of the well known monuments found at the ruins of these sites after their collapse. actually they destroyed each other's monuments over time and when the first Europeans. Arrived few if any remained upright. Obviously if a nati...

My Way, or the Highway. Saturday, June 5, 2010. The nation that destroys its soils destroys itself." – F.D. Roosevelt, 1937. Mr Herbert, New York Times editorialist, points out today [june 5, 2010], in Disaster in the Amazon , the heinous acts of a parasitic entity without a soul, the laissez faire corporate model, which is currently sucking the soul out of America. Agreed, wetlands destruction anywhere is nothing less than a national disaster but it is only the tip of the iceberg. 2 We have rendered the...
