a sign of times: bullish for energy, bullish for mining
higher prices will be forced, in order to fix the system

the Bonneville Authority controls electricity for the Pacific Northwest hydroelectric production system

in 2000, Alcoa was asked by Bonneville to go offline, to suspend all smelting activity (from bauxite to aluminum), to cooperate and shut down operations that use enormous amounts of energy
beer cans require huge amounts of electricity

Alcoa complied, and is making more money from selling electricity leases than they did in smelting to make aluminum

we in this country ARE TOTALLY ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL when it comes to energy
we believe that whenever energy costs rise, some evil force DID IT TO US
like Enron or Calpine or Dynergy in price gouging
how clueless!!!
we believe cheap energy is some national birthright
we know resources lie just waiting for our exploitation
but we commit no funds toward that exploitation, and block all efforts of rightofway, imposing environmental obstacles, feasibility review studies, environmental impact studies

sure, we dont mind raping and pillaging foreign lands for oil, gas, minerals
but God forbid, if there is mining runoff into water supplies

meanwhile, Green Dorks block every single new electric plant
and show more respect for darting snails than human jobs that support families
let the StupidShit Liberals read by candlelight

and nuclear facilities were phased out
and coal plants were deemed unhealthy

so whenever the economy does revv up, expect more electric blackouts
not in California this time, in my opinion
Calif has two new shiny Calpine whopper electric plants, each producing 500 megawatts
one in northCal, one in southCal

my guess is New York State will go dark
or some other northeast state dominated by Liberal DumbFuxx

and Dumbass Liberals will accuse big business of creating the problem
when the finger should be pointed at the Shoeless Clueless Liberals
their priorities are kneedeep up their ass

most Liberals are the stupidest primates I have ever seen walking the earth
