What I Learned from Picard: Never Give Up

I learned many lessons from Star Trek: The Next Generation.  I even wrote an English Composition paper about the lessons contained within Star Trek and ST: TNG during my short stint in college.

There have been many times in my life when dealing with tough situations that I have played this scene in my head, where Picard's persistence finally shows it's fruit - he is to be returned to the Enterprise.  It reminded me to be brave, never give up and stick to my guns.



I sum up the lesson I learned from Picard like this:

Never compromise what is in your heart for temporary relief and comfort.

Back then I hadn't accepted Jesus into my heart, but I can never deny my past. When I was barely a teenager I began my study of the deeper messages embedded in most of the Star Trek episodes, like I study passages in the Bible today. Those lessons pulled me through some tough times in my young life. I know from attending several conventions, there are millions of people out there that feel the same way. 

If you ever need to feel an overwhelming sense of hope and don't feel comfortable attending a church - go to a Star Trek convention with an open mind and let yourself feel the collective love and warmth shine through all those that attend.

The Hydrogen Car and Multifuel DVD is BANNED from GOOGLE !

From the USH2.com website:

WHAT GOOGLE DID TO STEVEN HARRIS AND ROY MCALISTER
What did Google Do to us ?? This is a story you just are NOT going to believe. Google has BANNED our sale of our famous 3.5 Hour Hydrogen Car and Multifuel DVD by Roy McAlister and Steven Harris.

From USH2.com: Roy McAlister standing next to his 1991 Geo Metro Multifuel Vehicle. This car runs on Gasoline, Natural Gas, Land fill Methane, Hydrogen, Propane, home made turpine fuel and any combination of the above fuels with hydrogen, or hydrogen on its own.

We use Google "Adwords" to advertise our DVD and other Hydrogen Books, DVDs and Solar Items. Google Adwords are the "ads" that show up in the RIGHT SIDE of the search screen in Google. Google has a policy that you cannot sell 'false' things on google adwords. This includes the selling of anything related to a car that runs on water. Cars that run on water are 100% Junk Science, False, 100% Stupidity and a 100% Scam and WE AGREE that this should not be something available for sale but the problem is Google Does NOT know the difference between Hydrogen and water !! Read on....

Reuters states Google has invested over $350 MILLION dollars in Alternative Energy Programs and despite this corporate commitment some Google Employees DO NOT know the difference between Hydrogen and water. NO Matter HOW BLATANTLY I posted on the advertisement that this is NOT a water car, that the car really does run on Hydrogen and other fuels. (See the 18 minute video of it running on PURE HYDROGEN and home made turpines) Google REFUSES to allow the ad and has now SUSPENDED my entire Google Adwords Account !!! This is a VERY Serious thing to have your account suspended...its not trivial. This happened WHILE I had letter of explanation submitted to them and WHILE the account was under a REVIEW.

Visit USH2.com for the rest of the story and more information about the DVD.
