for the purposes of a discussion about this book, or really for any reason at all... why does it matter that E. Black is Jewish? What the fuck??

[distantrhythm]

So the Jews were the suicide bombers, the Nazis were just "securing the homeland" against them, IBM was just assisting in their eradication, and anti-Semitism was just a survival tactic for the average German. I see where you are coming from, nightowl8936, and it's a very bad place. I suppose because you can't prove him wrong, it is time to resort to personal attacks and name-calling; makes me think there was something to the IBM thing!

WHEN?

Will this book be made into a movie!?

When?

[dmandery]

This book brings about a lot of interesting facts that most people don't know about. Well worth the read.

[Dutchoven08]

I enoyed the audio book, in the car, ironically.

I wonder why I've heard so little about this important book?

Media/oil/auto industries all in bed?

Yes.

[Dutchoven08]

Powerful book!

It reveals much of the cause for our current subjugation to Oil interests, including those in the white house.

[Dutchoven08]

Wow.

By justifying a crime like 'providing IT to the Nazis against the Jews'- "in a time when antisemitism was as common as Islamophobia is now" is mind boggling.

By that logic, Companies that now provide monitoring or even killing of Muslims are off the hook as it is "in vogue".

When it is popular to cage "your kind", I'll use the same logic to look the other way, too.

Enjoy your cell.

Sorry "Cheesy Music" is such a sore spot for you, too.

Stand up for mankind, all of us.

The point I am trying to make is that Edwin Black is not an engineer. He is a lawyer, and to make facts fit whatever perception they want to manufacture, he would rather stretch a rubber ruler than to learn engineering knowledge.

You'd have to be pretty gullible to believe the hype around this book of his regarding Industrial conspiracies. Fast talking con job.

If he was ever proven right, it would be grounds for a popular revolt against all the major industrial powers of our time.

Wow! You work at a campus? I guess that makes you an authority on a great many subjects... perhaps you collect ALL your data from the "stupidest" students for whatever argument you happen to be bullshitting your way through...

[nightowl8936]

"Perhaps Edison..."

As I recall, Edison used to electrocute chickens and other animals to show the dangers of big, bad, AC.

Its really very simple. Edison invested in DC, and wanted it to be the standard. But it would have become apparent eventually that high voltage AC is the only practical way to send electric power over any significant distance without losses.

Edison was a great man, but also an obstructionist much like Microsoft is today.

[nightowl8936]

I work at a campus and even the stupidest engineering students know that electric cars are just now becoming viable. To suggest that electric cars back then could have held their own against gasoline vehicles of the day is pure lawyer-type B U L L S H I T.

He is a master at collecting a bunch of events and putting them together into what appears to be a conspiracy, but they are not connected events.
