1992 and 1996 reports worth re-reading --- this issue hasn't changed a bit !!!

Flaws in Ontario Hydro's approach to planning in 1992 !!!! Note Chris Bancroft Wilson is the same person that sat beside me at this weeks' meeting !!! LINK: http://www.energyprobe.org/energyprobe/reports/ep376-40p_final.pdf

Note the reference to honey bees in this 1999 report !!!!

There has to be some classic lines from this report... Everything old is new again... Read at least the first few and last few paragraphs.

Quote:

"Honey bees navigate by observing changes as small as 0.6% in the Earth's magnetic field (2.5 mG out of 400 mG). Other studies have shown that other animals, such as sea turtles and homing pigeons, can navigate using the Earth's magnetic field as a guide. In order to navigate to precision, it is necessary to have many magnetosomes with a permanent dipole moment which are able to maintain their direction in the Earth's magnetic field while being buffeted by Brownian thermal fluctuations."
