This PhD title indeed has NOTHING to do with energy generation. Meritocracy indeed.

I couldn’t be bothered to read his thesis as it seems to be a rather boring historical cut and paste account, based on a number of interviews. However, the two pages I happened to fall upon were fraught with errors.

Pg 244 (grammatical error)
The PM asked he to stay
Pg 244/245 (error of repetition)
Over time DSG became the Prime Minister’s trusted advisor.
Same phrase repeated on Pg245
Over time it was evident that DSG became the Prime Minister’s trusted advisor
Pg 245
Does not skip a line when starting a new paragraph
Pg 245 (missing word)
The Consultancy Group (MEU) was represented in these committees which ensured that the Unit was positioned to major strategic projects
Pg 245 (Constancy should read Consultancy)
The leader of MSU had repositioned the Constancy Group as supporting..

I hope he proofread and correctly computed his numbers before submitting his grand technical document drawn up for the power station.

Might is right and no matter how complicated this issue becomes and how many extensions are added on to the 2 years time-frame, somehow they will see it through. With the kind of majority they enjoy, no Opposition or NGOs will stop the runaway train.

The only way to slow down the project is, if they go ahead without an EIA and the necessary permits etc., and the EU will start fining the government for contravening the rules.

However, if Joseph meant what he said, he can save the embarrassment of having to resign after the project fails, and resign now because it is clear that this project cannot possibly be completed in 24 months.

Besides the plant itself, the tanks, the regasification plant, pier and 2 ships will still have to be designed, approved and in the case of ships, found or built.

Konrad had better start breathing oxygen instead of the carcinogenic fumes at his office within the Delimara power station.

Joe Mizzi will have a temporary office on a bus.

Instead of arguing about names for the new PN leader, we should be talking of programmes and a vision for the party. Practically none of the potential candidates have expressed themselves in these terms.

In the case of Malta to produce electricity from gas is not possible and this can only be possible if Malta discovers its own resources.So this idea of generating electricity from gas can never be a reality.

The problem with Malta adapting to gas are:- transport, loading, storage and the amount of loses in converting liquid gas into vapour which is most dangerous process in high temperatures of summer.

Next stage is heating up the boilers to produce steam next the steam passes into tubes that heat up this steam into dry-steam that compress the turbines to turn up the dynamo to produce magnet force into electric power.

Heavy fuel oil added with water vapour do the same job and it is less costly that can make the bills of electricity and water to the prize we have today. There exist no other option to Malta. Heavy fuel oil is the safest and the cheapest and less dangerous and its C02 emissions can easily be controled by the added water vapour that can creat an emulsion in the furnce where toxic gas are turned into powder and can be collected and desposed intelligently.

Operation Konrad is a kid’s stuff.

Have you read that Chinese warships are visiting? It might be the guys who will be giving for free the power station that Joseph has promised.

They all hit the ground, face down.

They said they had been prepared to govern for a long time.

It is already showing.

The queues have been shifted OK, from Mater Dei to Pater Minister.
