They can do it pretty clean now, j.

Not clean enough after it''s burned and more CO2 is dumped, for starters. We''re already above the 350 ppm in the concentration of carbon in the atmosphere and between now and the next decade we''ll have to start trying to scale that number back.

BIG oil hasn''t paid a dime of royalties owed US tax payers on the public lands they already control. GOP gave them a pass years ago since oil prices were so low.. boo hoo.

Now they want to rip us off again? No way!!

Imagine a morning catching 6- to 10-pound mangrove snapper followed by an afternoon that produces trophy-size cobia and huge amberjack. You top off the evening with a 100-pound yellowfin tuna %u2014 on a surface plug of all things. In between, you jump a 400-pound blue marlin.

Sound like a fishy dream? Hardly. Welcome to the world of oil-rig fishing in the northern Gulf of Mexico.

Oil rigs can produce some of the most diverse fishing in the country. These man-made structures dot both the shallows and depths of the northern Gulf and provide protection for baitfish in otherwise vast stretches of open water. Around Venice, Louisiana, for instance, oil rigs can be found in water from 16 to more than 5,000 feet deep, which draws a plethora of species and offers amazing variety for anglers

I just had lunch with 3 other people from our local biodiesel co-op. We don''t buy gas any more. We don''t buy biodiesel because we''re stinky hippies with peace signs on our volkswagens. We''re entrepeneurs who are patriotic, and hate sending our money to OPEC countries.

By the way, my Volkswagen is a V-10 turbo diesel.

Bravo!
I am a proud Liberal Democrat and I will vote for Republican Senator Arnold Schwarzenegger if he runs for that office in 2 years. Arnold is not a puppet of the NeoCons.
Bravo!
