Twitter Triumph – The New Way To Make money with Twitter
The triumph of coal marketing
Mar 22nd
Do you have an opinion about nuclear power? About the relative safety of one form of power over another? How did you come to this opinion?
Here are the stats, and here’s the image. A non-exaggerated but simple version of his data:
For every person killed by nuclear power generation, 4,000 die due to coal, adjusted for the same amount of power produced… You might very well have excellent reasons to argue for one form over another. Not the point of this post. The question is: did you know about this chart? How does it resonate with you?
Vivid is not the same as true. It’s far easier to amplify sudden and horrible outcomes than it is to talk about the slow, grinding reality of day to day strife. That’s just human nature. Not included in this chart are deaths due to global political instability involving oil fields, deaths from coastal flooding and deaths due to environmental impacts yet unmeasured, all of which skew it even more if you think about it.
This chart unsettles a lot of people, because there must be something wrong with it. Further proof of how easy it is to fear the unknown and accept what we’ve got.
I think that any time reality doesn’t match your expectations, it means that marketing was involved. Perhaps it was advertising, or perhaps deliberate story telling by an industry. Or perhaps it was just the stories we tell one another in our daily lives. It’s sort of amazing, even to me, how much marketing colors the way we see the world–our reaction (either way) to this chart is proof of it.

Former eBay, HP CEOs Triumph in CA Primaries
Jun 9th
Former eBay CEO Meg Whitman and former HP CEO Carly Fiorina are moving up in California politics. Whitman will be the GOP candidate against Jerry Brown, while Fiorina will run for Senate against Democrat Barbara Boxer. The Wall St. Journal has the story:
“Career politicians in Sacramento and Washington, D.C., be warned because you now face your biggest nightmare: Two businesswomen who know how to create jobs, balance budgets and get things done,” Ms. Whitman said in her victory speech Tuesday night in Universal City, Calif.
(B)oth candidates, having tacked right to win over conservatives in the primaries, must convince California’s historically moderate electorate that they have better solutions to the state’s economic and political paralysis than their veteran liberal rivals. Both must also show they can make nice with the state’s diverse ethnic and economic demographics, possibly softening their primary-race rhetoric on issues such as illegal immigration.
Amid a generally light turnout statewide, some Republicans who marked their ballots for the two women said they did so, in part, because of their business experience. “We need some business people who know how to run businesses in our government,” said 62-year-old Frank Barragan, an airline-service representative who voted for both women at a precinct in San Francisco’s Glen Park neighborhood.
Added Steve Fryer, a 72-year-old investment banker who also voted for the former CEOs in Newport Beach: “Business people know what the real world’s all about, and I’m afraid that politicians don’t. I think fiscal conservative is the most important thing you could be right now” because of the state economy’s woes.
It would also behoove voters to look at both women’s histories as CEOs of their respective companies. Whitman and Fiorina have vastly different reputations in Silicon Valley. I wouldn’t be surprised to see some of those strengths (and, in Fiorina’s case, flaws) manifest in government office.
This is going to be interesting.
