What is the Best Human-Centric Climatic Baseline?

No sane person would want to return to the “pre-industrial” period or the Little Ice Age.

Alleged Trump Lies

What is the New York Times definition of a lie? How does it compare to Webster’s Dictionary definition? When they call Trump a liar, what do they mean? Do they mean Trump lied to deceive? Or just that he made a mistake or had a different opinion than they do?

The 2020 Election, was it stolen?

By Andy May Trump often claims that the 2020 election was stolen from him or it was improperly run. The news media responds to these claims by saying that there is no proof that the election was rigged or stolen. When pressed, some in the media will admit that fraud existed in the 2020 election,Continue reading “The 2020 Election, was it stolen?”

Possible Lawfare against Trump

By Andy May From my perspective, the Democratic Party, the FBI, the Intelligence community, and the so-called deep state launched unprecedented legal attacks against Trump, his friends, supporters, and family after he won election in 2016. The attacks were supported by multiple news media organizations, although no evidence of news media/deep state coordination has beenContinue reading “Possible Lawfare against Trump”

Deployable Energy’s new compact nuclear reactor

By Andy May I first read about Deployable Energy on Joanne Nova’s website and was very interested in their innovative small modular nuclear reactor and how it worked. The reactor was produced under President Trump’s 2025 nuclear reactor plan. It was designed by Australian Bobby Gallagher and his team in Houston. It can produce oneContinue reading “Deployable Energy’s new compact nuclear reactor”

Comparing Equilibrium, Kinetic, and Non-Equilibrium Temperatures

Definitions of thermodynamic, kinetic, and non-equilibrium temperatures with illustrations.

Kinetic Temperature

More on the definition of temperature. Comparing kinetic temperature to thermodynamic temperature.

Defining Temperature

By Andy May I never thought I would participate in a serious debate on the definition of “temperature.” But it happened on twitter, and with people who have degrees in physics and other hard sciences! Since I worked with kinetic and effective temperature estimates for 42 years as a petrophysicist, I knew these topics intimatelyContinue reading “Defining Temperature”

Modeling the Troposphere

It has always been a bit of a mystery why the IPCC CMIP models reproduce the tropospheric temperature profile so poorly, here we try and explain the problem.

Testing the Dew-Point Anchor Hypothesis

By Andy May and Philip Mulholland Earlier this year Philip Mulholland published the details of his Dew-Point Anchor Hypothesis or “DPAH” (Mulholland P. , 2026a). The hypothesis assumes that the Dew-Point Lifting Condensation Level (LCL), as calculated from surface conditions in the tropics, can act as an anchor for the lower and middle troposphere. ThisContinue reading “Testing the Dew-Point Anchor Hypothesis”
