That Man Hunt game sounds awesome! I'd like to see it in action and perhaps participate.<BR/><BR/>I totally agree with your assessment that we as humans have neglected the entire concept of community. The only thing we commune with anymore is technology - wires hanging from our ears, dangling off our laps, and trailing from our backpacks. It's sad, really. <BR/><BR/>Let's start a change. :) Let's carol more. Let's have a week of no technology (except at work, of course), and spend our free time with actual people, as opposed to avitars and TV characters. <BR/><BR/>What a concept...Beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15100023167123234673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276930657789007241.post-24271410698342835842008-11-27T10:20:00.000-08:002008-11-27T10:20:00.000-08:00Hi Ruwan,<BR/><BR/>I did a google search on fishing the Tucannon River and found your blog. I hunt the Snake River Country for pheasants every fall and we have fished for steelhead and this year catfish in the river.<BR/><BR/>You have an interesting blog. Your interests in fly fishing, photography, and alternative energy mirror some of my interests.<BR/><BR/>I did enjoy your links to the more technical environmental articles. We have a solar house in the Washington Cascades that we run as a vacation home rental.<BR/><BR/>http://camasmeadows.blogspot.com/<BR/><BR/>The article on Black Silicon did miss one point. Our house runs strictly on solar from about March through September. After that the sun angle becomes to low and we use our generator as backup. <BR/><BR/>However, it is also about this time that we start heating with wood. A solar cell that absorbs infra-red and generates electricity would be the perfect compliment to our current set-up. The cells could placed behind the wood stove.<BR/><BR/>There is a company in western Washington that has been working on infra-red solar cells for several years. <BR/><BR/>This is their web site. <BR/>http://www.jxcrystals.com/ThermoPV.htm <BR/><BR/>We have owned our solar house for ten years and throughout that time it seems all the alternative energy breakthroughs were just four or five years away. Meanwhile, we still live with a generator and lead-acid batteries.<BR/><BR/>Nice blog. Keep posting particularly those alternative energy links. <BR/><BR/>For fly fishing for trout you should get a Fish Cat float tube. The best trout fishing in eastern Washington is in the lakes and it is much more relaxing than fighting the brush along streams.Vladimir Steblinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17401893012975033107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276930657789007241.post-17822342065085424642008-11-11T09:46:00.000-08:002008-11-11T09:46:00.000-08:00*giggles* I do say, I find our post the most interesting of the page. *smiles* though involving teletubbies in anything delights me, so proceed and what not. :0<BR/>-MichelleMichelle Graveshttp://vortexoffeminity.wordpress.com/photography/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276930657789007241.post-50316379880560499612008-11-07T19:00:00.000-08:002008-11-07T19:00:00.000-08:00Sweet...<BR/><BR/>Im so glad you made it over.<BR/><BR/>your web page here is remarkable also<BR/><BR/>i didnt think of it at the time (just trying to hold on with that crazy driver) but the ride was reminiscent of pohnpei. as if the Lord is on the journey with us arranging a few bells and whistles.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276930657789007241.post-66861657868001291132008-07-16T16:36:00.000-07:002008-07-16T16:36:00.000-07:00Job hunts can be tough.
