The BP fatcat himself just stated that BP has 503 active wells
pumping..

It would work if BP had not poisoned their poison.

coal should be reserved as a feedstock;
it makes an excellent fertilizer, combined with gravelflour e.g..
yes; some burning could be stopped with modern nukes,
use some of the "DU" and thorium etc.

oil is not neccesarily as old as the permeable rocks
that it's found in, and it's probably not fossilized. oil is created
at the rate of biomass production run-off; so,
what's the sustainable rate?

OK, I'll tell you the first one that I heard Griffith say,
at the end of his 9/11/2001 Truth talk:
that it was absurd that a terrorist could cut your throat
with a box-cutter, when it was legal to have one
in commercial flight.

thus&so:
sounds interesting, but I doubt that you will get much of a reading,
since M&M et sequentia did not -- but, it was *a* reading. now,
you'd probably call that, entrained aether, but I really don't
see any need for such in "electromagnetism
with no Pascalian (perfect) vacuum" (and I recall reading,
the air is half hydrogen, 500 miles out e.g.)

> I can get Earth’s speed and direction without reference to any stars!

thus&so:
I read [*] the name of the unindicted co-conspirator
of HDubya in Iran-contra, Oliver "Buck" Revell,
who laid down the law at the NSF meeting,
that "global" cooling would henceforth not be funded. see,
I put that word in scare-quotes, becuase it was the self-
same flat-map miscomprehension of insolation
-- merely the differential from pole to equator --
that presupposes that glaciation requires a lesser temperature,
or that deglaciation'd require a greater one.

Now tell me, Mikey, what was it that made you see
red about Green now? This is wonderful news and
you are most certainly not the first one to defect from
the Enviros' Green camp. Let me know what triggered
your switch. There are a lot of folks who'd like to see
some rational and critical way of how to live without
all that corrupt & hysterical Greenism. You could help.
Take care, Mikey.

Time and fancy permitting I may continue discussing
the oil issue, given the interesting responses from
Frank Logullo, Al Schwartz, LSMFT, lorad, and you.
