  1. Hello greenstatistician! Hope you and you're family are doing fine!

    We have been contemplating, "islands of high tech sustainability" and have discovered that two such regions exist here in North America where renewables are powering the electrical infrastructure. Also, Sweden, Norway and Finnland appear to be doing the same.

    1. Thanks for your kind words!
      I just read what you wrote about Spengler at your blog and I found it very interesting that you are using hexagrams from I Ching. I read the book a few years ago and last year I picked and dried 50 (+ spares) yarrow stalks and have tried to use it. As a statistician I find it a fascinating way to generate random outcomes. As a reader of Spengler I find the dualism interesting. All living is governed by electro-magnetic forces and positive/negative charge.
