I'm in favor of alternative energy sources. I think it's ridiculous that we are still using oil and coal, which is a 19th century fuel. I can't be certain, but I think the oil companies have been suppressing alternative technology for decades. They have too much influence over government. But I don't support that because of "climate change".

I'm going out on a limb and saying he didn't go to college. He made it on his own and now he shits on those who are academics. Originally Posted by WombRaider

I did, however, pay for college degrees at major Texas universities for my deceased wife, my daughter, my son-in-law, and my sister in law. You can do the math on that.

Coal has been around a long time, fossil oil about 170 years, whale oil's time has passed but what else do we have with the left wing environmentalists stopping the construction of nuclear reactors or the building of wasted storage sites. My guess is that oil is both a 20th century fuel and a 21st century fuel source (natural gas too).

Just because science says something is a possibility doesn't mean it's a fact. Nobody reads it that way but you, Whir-LIE-turd. And of course, your ass licking blow buddy, the smelly old Turdfly.

This discussion is yet another example of Whir-LIE-turd pushing something out of context into a frothing, spewing, screaming argument that most likely will wind up with multiple posters being called "faggot" or something else by IBIdiot and his pals.

I haven't read this thread since the beginning but I'll be surprised if that hasn't already happened.m

The reasoning against non-renewable energy sources is in their name. they are NON-RENEWABLE. Whether it be a hundred years or a thousand, there will be a time when we run out of them.

The scientific minds that advocate alternative energy are doing it because they, first and foremost, want humanity to survive beyond that horizon.

We should be applauding people like Elon Musk. What he, and people like him are doing, will benefit generations upon generations of human beings, after we are all dead and gone.

Let's just that it wouldn't surprise me if the oil companies were suppressing technology that would provide abundant, cheap energy for all. Nope, it sure wouldn't.
Doubtful. This kind of thinking is 20th century old. Nowadays there is way too much start up investor capital with appropriate levels of political clout to over ride and out fox that kind of paradigm.

And if that kind of technology can't break thru in the US ; there are plenty of other countries that it could be launched from.
