Are we running out of oil? I've heard 50 years and I've heard 200 years. Hard to understand, since we apparently haven't found it all yet, how anyone can put an endpoint on the supply. I had a doctor friend (cardiologist) who used to end each prouncement with "so far as we know". He understood that we didn't know everything and things could change overnight. Anyone who predicts the end of oil without using this as a caveat is a charlatan.
The reason that we have so much interest in Hybrid cars is government. Why spend a 100 million dollars on developing the Volt when you know that it is fatally flawed and you (the car company) can never recoup your investment? Only with government promises can you go forward.
Solar and wind are energy dense enough to support industry and take up too much room to support residencial development except as an experiment.
Some quick research and I cannot find a hydro-electric dam built in the US since the early 1970s. Canada gets almost 70% of its electricity from hydro but it continues to build dams and has built a number this century. It is utter folly to rely on a source of electricity that has been all but banned in the US.

Uh, Ekim, you really need to pay attention. I think Halliburton is doing just fine under Obama. He seems to like them as much as Bush did. So don't tell us about the evil "Bush-Halliburton" connection until you discover the evil "Obama-Halliburton" connection.

See you got the period at the end of the sentences. The capital letter thing down at the begining of the sentences. Now let's concentrate on the double space between the period and the cap. LOL Originally Posted by IIFFOFRDB
