And it has more than a million members so far. You might discreetly pass the word on this to other proponents of solar and wind on here, but the way that site is set up the oil proponent blowhards will have trouble making trouble and impeding the communication process.

They're organizational ability is incredible. They will actually send you surveys asking what matters most to you and then direct their efforts where the majority says go. BTW how come you're not already on my friend list?

is patented technology where travel occurs without air friction or rolling resistance (like “Space Travel on Earth”). ETT provides 50 times more transportation per kWh than electric trains or cars. ETT is clean, safe, and faster than jets. The focus of ETT is to maximize transportation value with proven technologies. I invite you to visit my page to learn more.

Oh my god! You want to see some stubborn people? I have another blog called, Drill, drill, drill...I'm sick to my stomach! They say drilling the hell out of this country will increase supply and magically bring oil prices down. Yeah, RIGHT! The minute they make an oil discovery, speculators will be all over it and public demand for this new oil field will skyrocket! We'll just go back to our comfortable energy-guzzling lifestyles and our keep our SUVs, sports cars, and luxury vehicles. At our current rate of oil consumption, we use 21 million barrels of oil a year! If we go back to our previous lifestyles, that number will increase greatly over the coming years, just like it always has! Oil is an international commodity that will be mainly be sold to developing countries like China and India, but you know that. I'm sure that much of the population that supports drilling doesn't know this. No matter how much we drill in this country, we will never meet demand and become independent of foriegn oil! We need to save the cheap oil for future generations to use for domestic plastics, chemicals, fertilizers and lubricants. There are many technologies being developed to replace oil. One of the most recent discoveries is Algae-to-Oil. Algae uses photosynthesis to create oil and other byproducts. One acre of algae can produce 20,000 gallons of oil per year! Every single algae cell is comprised of 50% oil! There you go! It uses CO2, water and sunlight and creates high-yeild cheap oil! I found several good forums on this website about it. Just put in a forum search for "Algae" and you'll get 361 results and counting!

One really good forum was: Algae Bio Mass Farms can produce up to 20,000 gallons of oil per acre per year!

Good God you ignorant, stupid hick. You left leaning hate mongers are as bad as the neocons. I only hope you've served your country 1/2 of what I've done which is many times more than either bush or clinton. I only hope your wake up and realize this country is going down because of both parties and the elitists who run it.
