when that happens i think voters will take algore and the greenies, throw them under the bus, back over them a few times just to make sure they're dead.
then we can move forward with nuclear and other sustainable energy sources
LMAO!!! Now there is an image I can get behind.
Back in the early '70s, I knew a guy who was a nuclear engineer. Worked for the California power people. He made efforts to convince me that all of the problems with nuke power that folks were bringing up could be dealt with, and I now believe that. Unfortunately, we succumbed to the whackos in the 1970s and shot down new nuke plant construction, all at a time when it would have most benefited the country.
Now we're playing catchup and, in the meantime, the Chineese are burning coal at a record pace. Anything we do in this country to reduce CO2 emissions is a drop in the swimming pool compared to what the developing world is doing to pollute.
WRT $5.00 gasoline, I see the day coming. And when it does, it will drastically change the way we live our lives. Won't see me taking a 4,000 mile road trip like I did last summer, and air travel will get prohibitively expensive. It'll be like the 1950's again, when only the well-to-do could afford to travel by air. |
