The EPA teams up with UC to regulate your grill
Posted by Non_mooching_artist 9 years, 8 months ago to Legislation
A match made in crony hell, if I ever saw one. I was actually not surprised in the least when I read which university was getting the grant to fund this utterly ridiculous waste of money study to limit how I enjoy cooking my food. Btw, because there isn't natural gas available where I live, my stove is operated using propane... Is that getting scrutinized soon, I wonder??
When are the representatives, who supposedly have our backs, going to finally deal with the EPA in an aggressive manner of defunding their punitive projects?? Because enough is enough!
I WILL NOT COMPLY!

Yes. It is also similar to the wood burning stove fiasco.

much d*** Coca-Cola as I see fit. And if I had
kids, I would pack their lunches and send them to
school with lunch in paper bags or lunchboxes (if
I sent them to school at all, instead of home-schooling them). I don't need Michelle Obama,
or any other government b****telling me what
to eat or drink.
It took awhile for me to realize what this meant- but through taxes and fees, we feed the very government monster that regulates us. Now, I resent sending ANY money to our government.
I will not comply either.

The IRS paved the way for this. They are an organization that was supposed to originally only affect the richest 1 or 2 percent of the population, but has evolved into a gigantic bureaucracy sucking up at least a trillion dollars of annual GDP for the population to meet compliance and produces nothing but more power for itself. Like the IRS, the rest of the government alphabet soup is arming to the teeth to force their will on the people. Government, no longer ours, is succeeding in making criminals of us all just as Ayn Rand predicted.
Oh, I still use charcoal!
Volcanoes were erupting all the time back during my time during the Jurassic. What did all those years of eruptions lead to?
The Cretaceous Period of T-Rex with millions of more years of all kinds of volcanoes.
It took a 6-mile wide asteroid or comet to take out the dinos. The birds and the bees and the flowers and the trees still got through it,.

A loophole has been found! People can barbeque in their back yards! So now a 'study' (with a foregone conclusion) is going to be undertaken and this activity will be forbidden - for our own good, of course.

Make sure you have a good 5 cords of wood stored somewhere and plenty of food. A few guns to keep away all the people who let the government be prepared for them.
You would have to get a well permit and drill to about 680 feet to get a flowing well. A bit expensive but doable.

The only thing you can do in the summer is swim. But we are 3 hours from the FL panhandle, and i LOVE the beach.
Every location has its good and bad. I just hope we don't put the Gulch in the cold!
I like the beach as well. I just can't take roasting for too long. That's when a pitcher of margaritas comes in handy. And grilled pineapple....
The high humidity heat would kill me dead. Rather have a fire for heat in the winter than swelter in the the heat of summer :) Good thing we all like different stuff
I have lived 95% of my life in Mi. Frigid, dreary gray skies, little sunshine, car eating salt on the roads, ice, snow, shoveling, slipping, falling down and breaking your keister and shut in for months in the winter. Summers are nice but too brief. I lived for a few years out west. Hot, dry, lots of sunshine, hail storms that dent the crap out of your car... Still tolerable. I have vacationed regularly in Florida. Sunshine, hot, humid, stagnant stifling air and uncomfortable in mid-state, but much better in the Keys where there is a nice ocean breeze and always the cool water nearby. In my travels I have set foot in 45 different states, but never Hawaii. I hear they have the best weather with average daily high temperatures of about 81°F and lows of 65°F at night with slight variables depending upon season and elevation. I understand it is very expensive to live there.
If we could only find a way to take over one of the islands... hmmm. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcvsE1tF...
Well it is a lovely dream anyway. :)

A surprise location, if you like it a bit cool but not snowing, I would not have thought of as being so good is the Alaskan keys. They get cool enough that you need a fire to take the chill of at night, but never get really hot. The warm pacific ocean current keeps the winters warmer than I would have ever thought, but does not heat up the summers.
We could all pull together and buy admiralty island and then once we all moved there declare our personal succession (along with our assets) from the US and start a new country. We would just need to be recognized by another national leader and have a constitution done and walla new country. It would be far less costly than Hawaii.

Constant Disputes between the US and canida on fishing rights would be one of our biggest problems as we would be in the middle of that, otherwise its one of the best places I have ever been for doing a real life gulch. Lots of much smaller islands around that would cost much less to purchase.
Wishful thinking....

I had to try for today, as we have more snow in the forecast tomorrow... :-(
15 ache farm and 20 ache pasture, wood burning stove with a shed full of wood, septic, artesian well, 30ish head of cattle and grow enough to feed them plus sell. 1 ache garden.
My family is nearly independent on food. We would not eat quite as nicely but could survive on what we have for years. My week spot right now is power. I need to buy solar and perhaps put in a windmill though I think the latter would be less effective where I am at.
Where is that big alien saucer when we need it?
:-)
This has a little bit to do with pork (pun intended), but as others have said in prior postings, everything to do with extending control over every aspect of our lives, no matter how mundane. And also to do with this (or similar) bureaucracies justifying their own existence (some existing little weasel was paid to come up with this study), and adding more weasels to police our backyards when this study concludes, inevitably, what a threat to our very existence BBQ'ing is.
Yes to the extent possible we should expose and defund as many of these absurd projects as we can.
But we need a much bigger solution, which I hope to speak to after dinner.
To my regret, I can't make a stand re dinner tonight. Still too cold where I am to fire up the barbie, much less clear the snow...
It's melting though. And I intend to fire it up DAILY...
I'll do the same!
Burn, baby, burn!
(Ah, time flies. Never thought I'd be saying that!)
I say we let them light my grill. With a short stick and gasoline.
I can no longer obtain the paint for my house that actually WORKS IN WISCONSIN because of California teaming up with the EPA and eliminating VOCs in paint.
I told my paint dealer that the temperature extremes in California are: August in Badwater Basin in Death Valley to January at the peak of Mount Whitney and NO ONE LIVES IN EITHER PLACE!
My home experiences those weather extremes in a one-year cycle and I live here! I need something that works for me in real life...not something that allegedly works in some educated idiot's mind in California.
grill nor the woodstove. . this is America. -- j
Even here we have very little. There is a world class observatory at our high school, which has second Saturday of the month events. Really cool stuff!
And the ceiling of which you speak; trey ceiling. Love those!

I like the horse! That would need to be at my gulch house. A few, actually. :-)
and if you keep the fire at a proper temperature, there is little smoke to bother the neighbors.
But that's more poisonous than the particulates.
You could also buy the upscale model which has a nice grill on the bottom for the paper to sit it, and a nice handle to pick it up with.....as long as they are legal to sell, anyway.
Don't need no damn Epa tellin me how to cook, by gum.
So when can we expect the first BBQer shot dead with a spatula in his hand, by responding 'smoke in the air' police that feared for their lives?
Oh, wait...sorry...
