Thanks! Really interesting to me. Ed
Speaking about electricity - check out Kathy Loves Physics on YouTube - she has a lot of fun on the topic of Electricity...
"The Manhattan Institute is a policy think tank that has received significant funding from both ExxonMobil and Koch Industries. According to media transparency, the Manhattan Institute has been known to “obscure” science supporting man-made climate change.
Bryce has been unwilling to answer questions about the funding the Manhattan Institute receives from the fossil fuel industry."
So John Larkin is - as usual - peddling climate change denial propaganda. He is a gullible sucker for that kind of nonsense.
My go-to source for dirt on organisations is Transparency International, and they make no such accusation. You're wrong again, Bill.
Transparency International is all about financial corruption.
The Manhattan Institute is selling it's services in a perfectly open way.
There's a lively international trade in delusion and misinformation. Truth in advertising is an ideal, but a more expensive ideal than anybody seems able to afford.
