I once opined that KR Shridhar the CEO of Bloom Energy
“reminds me of a snake charmer. He makes
a gangrene sulfur filled poisonous cobra pretend to be a smooth green snake
that is harmless.”
Of course I was referring to his company hiding the
hazardous solid waste while pretending to sell affordable, better, greener, and
cleaner electrons.
In the blog I then linked the following you tube
The question is, do I still think KR Shridhar is like a
snake charmer? I did some investigation
into snake charmers. Wiki has an
interesting link on snake charmers.
I really was taken by this paragraph that I quote from the
Wiki link.
The early 21st
century has proved to be something of a golden age for thermodynamic fakers and
greenwashers in the green energy space. Bloom
is one of a dozen companies that Kleiner Perkins (Gore, Doerr, Shridhar and
Powell) , Khosla Ventures, and other promotors festered upon us. Governments, particularly the US and several
states like Delaware, California, Connecticut, and New York promoted the
practice of greenwashing to enrich cronies and drew billions of taxpayer,
ratepayer, and small investor dollars in BS schemes to save the world from
carbon emissions. Sadly in the early 21st
century, the BS the greenwashers hyped provided nothing valuable, but just toxic
waste that stinks and no antivenins.
I do not think KR
Shridhar qualifies or is honorable enough to be a snake charmer. The right comparison is that KR Shridhar
invented, hyped, and is running the largest gangrene ecofraud ever. He has the title of Chief Bloomdoggler in a
gangrene company that is Solyndra times four and Flint on steroids. The sulfur waste metaphor in my blog that
referred to snake charming is far too soft and kind. I should have simply called KR Shridhar the
Joe Isuzu of green energy.
I once did blog
about Bloomerangs and how the sulfur waste came back to bite Bloom in the ass. Boy has it ever bitten Bloom and their
customers like Apple, AT&T, IKEA, Coca Cola, EBay, Home Depot, Genentech,
Walmart, and others in the ass.
Joe Isuzu hyped the 1988 Impulse with Lotus
handling. Sridhar hyped his 2010 fuel
cell with better electrons. Better electrons
than coal maybe. Maybe not. Some
things never change from century to century, especially the laws of
thermodynamics. Yes Thermodynamics
Trumps Everything. Donald Trump would
never have funded the Bloomdoggle as unlike Oh Bummer he does not need Doerr
and Khosla to build his billion dollar library.
President Trump is an expert at building things.
Generally I agree. But Trump is merely an expert at fraudulent use and abuse of eminent domain and in scamming investors, public agencies, consultants and contractors leaving all of the above holding the bag while walking off with the fruits of all of their labors and assets. He is simply a hyper successful grifter.
ReplyDeleteRob Ryan Trump will make science great in America again. He has a good understanding of the second law of thermodynamics. As for Joe Biden who is not president and who is back in Deal Away, Joe makes Trump look like Honest Abe.
ReplyDeleteOh Bummer makes Trump look like Einstein when it comes to energy policy.
Actually Oh Bummer was so bad in science he makes Rick Perry look like Stephen Hawking. Did you see What me Worry Moniz on Far Reed this morning. Moniz gave us Kemper the "clean coal >$7 billion wonder that just won't work." Kemper had some leaks this week and Southern will stick the poor in old Miss with more rate increases. Kholsla and his team at KIOR stole $75 from old Miss but Moniz was a bigger crook.
ReplyDeleteI asked a Chinese sage if there could have been 8 years of the snake, not just 2013. The sage told me yeas the 8 years of Obama and Biden are known as the years of Chicken Snake https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken_snake
ReplyDeleteHere is the latest on the Kemper project which was Obama-Chu Chu- Wondergirl Moniz's stab at clean coal

As I said, I agree with your Bloom (and KIOR and, generally, Khosla) points but Trump never heard of the second law of thermodynamics and has no good understanding of anything whatsoever, other than the same sort of understanding that the side show hustler carnies have about how to fraudulently extract money from a mark.
