Ok, I get it, and standby every time I ever suggested you might not be firing on all cylinders. I answered you, concisely, using terms and in reference to things that have happened here since the inception of geothermal as a possible alternative source of energy. Yet, it was/is all over your head.. just gobbledygook you suggest was written without consideration of your post. When in fact you have no idea of the things you are going on about.
What do you know about the early exploration? How geothermal was in the neighborhood long before 99% of the people that bitch about were? Yeah I know, you're a frickin' bot spitting out search results just like any ol' bot should.. but do you know about Campbell Estate's involvement? How about the wood chipping area and the back door effort to bulldoze an illegal road into.. or the land swap? Do you have any idea of the roles Kahauale'a, Kupaianaha, and Wao Kele o Puna played in how geothermal ended up being developed where it is? Or, why True came up dry in the middle of the East Rift? Are you hip to the fact that the NPS was a party to the legal challenges to geothermal? Can you recount how the geothermal sub-zone land designation came into being? And how everyone that builds in, developes their hopes and dreams in, the sub-zone already are on notice that geothermal may happen there? I mean, come on, you know that right?
Or maybe, since you like to go on about stuff, you can tell us why when the Volcano Community Association and Puna Geothermal Committee, while they were in the middle of their court battles over the matter and met with all the subdivisions in lower Puna telling them what was coming and asking for their involvement in steering it were told they weren't interested? Like literally, it was spelled out, and the folks makai didn't want to be bothered.
And yet you waddle in here and say..
First and foremost, I will say that the geothermal power to date here on this island has been the textbook example of gross incompetence, greed and sheer stupidity. Coupled with the "deity" issues.
Putting a geothermal power plant in the middle of a residential neighborhood is a grossly incompetent as one can get when there are numerous other places much more suitable.
You said that, I asked you where? And instead of answering you continue to attack me.. fine. That's who you are.
All without knowing the reasons things are as you find them. Because, if you did, you'd never say the things you do. Period. And yet, all the while, you appear incapable of acknowledging your own shortcomings.. in other words, you continue to make my point. Over and over and over... type, hit send.. and over again.
