High gas prices? Thank a Democrat this November

Hon: so far they have been doing exactly that and they have relatively ZIP.

Yes: They have some technology that shows promise,but nothing that can do the job of replacing carbon based fuels. Meanwhile they want us to abandon carbon based fuels while they continue to look.

What they should be doing is cleaning up the carbon based fuels the best they can , using them,while they continue to look. not trying to wean the baby before its ready to be weaned.

Not only do they have zip, but every study shows that unless you plow 90% of the USA for Corn to Fuel, or set up massive windfarms on every coastline, and even then you can't come close to Nukes and gas.

Reality based engineering says drill, and build Nukes.

Hey,

I Google'd this and can't find where he said this anywhere.

When and were did he say this? Can you post a link? Or is this another e-mail you got?

TIA,
Andy

I'm not your hon. Only Baja can get away with calling me that. I agree that we should improve our petroleum based fuel efficiency, but I also think it's extremely important that we continue to look into renewable energy sources. If every home in America installed solar panels on the roof, we'd save a ton of energy. Prices would come down because more people are using solar. I knew of a farmer in VT who had 1 windmill installed on his farm. It paid for itself in 3 years. It's now providing enough energy to run his entire farm, and he's selling electricity back to the power company. I realize that it's not feasible for everyone to have a windmill, but it's very do-able in a lot of cases.

I think we could drill now to ease things up a bit, but eventually we're going to have to look into alternative fuel sources. Wouldn't it be smart to develop those sources now, instead of waiting until we rely 100% on another country? We shouldn't wait until we're out of oil, we need to plan ahead. Just because there are no perfect solutions now doesn't mean we won't eventually get 1 or 2 perfect solutions.

And companies have already looked into windfarms off coastlines, but guess what? People don't want to ruin their view.

Calm down Hon.

Anyone know where we stand on antimatter technology?

They are having trouble recharging the dylithium crystals.

So close. Yet so far.

I would love to see someone administer a good to these people.
