Dear Del: Are you not upset that they are cutting down all the forests in South America and Africa? That is why Co2 levels rise. Plant a tree, save a life!! JDN

'd bet that you were one of his parrot ditto-heads in the past Got $10,000 to spare for a bet on that? Just PM me. We'll have the money held in escrow until the bet is settled. because you still think like him. According to you, anyone to the right of Mao Dze-dong or Ralphie Nader thinks like him. If you would have read my post correctly you would have seen that I said that the projections made in the past were made on available data on known reserves, and were correct for the time And I pointed out why they were incorrect- -those high prices were certain to stimulate the search for more oil. That's where you're simplistic assumptions went wrong. Neither you or anybody else could know what future reserves would be No, but I and a lot of other people knew what would happen. Certainly better than you did. As it turned out, there was far more than what was projected. Of course. Surprise. It does not follow that we will always find enough oil as long as there is exploration money available, as there certainly is a finite supply. Again you are being simplistic. If what you say is true, other solutions will be found when needed. It's called "science". It works. Why do you wrong wingers think that it is somehow it is your birthright to use as much as you want to satisfy your self-indulgent lifestyles, while leaving the wells dry for future generations? Because. So there! Do your grandchildren a favor and save your posts for them to read 50 years from now. It is up to you to explain to them why you didn't want to use our resources wisely and why CO2 levels are so high. Ever hear of plants? Not the industrial kind, the biological kind. Also, there are geologic processes, which, in the presence of higher CO2 levels, speed up and store more. Has it ever occurred to you that you might know less than you think?
