As always when we at Global Wahrman
come across examples of incompetence or stupidity, we have to ask if
it is really incompetence or stupidity, or whether it is in fact
incompetence AND stupidity or even worse, whether it is an example of
how the Space Aliens are using hypnotic mind control as many suspect?
Take for example the latest problem
with the Boeing 787 involving the exploding lithium-ion batteries.
Second only to Islam for the bad-marketing-award of the last 20
years, lithium-ion batteries have been famously exploding in people's
laptops (and laps) for years. So when one exploded on a 787,
fortunately on the ground, a picture of the battery exploded, so to
speak, across the internet.
Oh, there is one little detail about this picture that I forgot to mention ...
But there was actually a little detail
about that picture of the exploded battery, a subtle nuance one might
say, really barely worth mentioning: most of the news articles, well all of them
but one actually, failed to tell you was that this is a picture of a
battery that had been hit by an ax when the firemen came into the
plane. I hope it wasn't a metal ax because that could have had a
shocking result, ha ha, but maybe that is the real reason firemen
wear rubber work gloves.
Well, yes, it turns out, this is just a
technical detail, that if you hit a battery that is distressed for
some reason with an ax, hard, it doesn't surprise me that the
battery might explode. In general, we recommend to not hit a distressed battery, or any
battery at all actually, with an ax: that would be the recommended
procedure. The battery is much less likely to explode under those
circumstances.
So whatever is going on about the
Boeing 787 and their extensively tested lithium-battery (no sarcasm
here, it was extensively tested), its not about them just going off
and exploding.
Unless you hit it with an ax, of
course.
One might wonder if the news
organizations thought about the issue that they might have something
to do with the fate of the many, many American jobs that lie hanging
in the balance on the perception of the 787 in the marketplace?
The
answer is no, of course not, they don't give a fuck. They just want
to make a buck like the National Inquirer and with all the integrity
and relentless attention to detail that the National Inquirer applies
to their articles ("Did Space Aliens Steal My Baby and Turn It
Into Tom Cruise?"), but with less honesty (the National Inquirer
is clear and upfront about their motivations). Like everything else
in America, its not about doing good work, its about lying and
stealing the money.
