re:I see. You got in over your head so its: why don't you move to Canada time. Pretty typical. Thanks. No it's your typical reaction to anything - first you read a claim that Canada will run out of NG in EIGHT YEARS and you wonder how the USA is set for NG. Yes, I posted an article to JF about how Canada had 8 years of NG left, expressing my concern. I appreciate that you wanted to respond, but it wasn't necessary. I publish link after link to convince you there is no issue, the world has lot's of NG and we're well on our way to building ships and LNG transfer points to deal with the loss of domestic supplies and we have no issues we can't resolve and we'll be fine on the LNG issue for the next several decades if not centuries. First of all, the issue for me wasn't that the world would run out of energy in the next 8 years. Instead, my concern was that we get some of our NG from Canada, and with them running out, we would have to go to the same countries that we currently get oil. That means we aggravate the US's growing dependency on foreign energy which is worsening our trade imbalance with the world and causing the US's trade deficit to increase significantly. Secondly, the US's need for foreign oil is generating a foreign policy that I find to be very dangerous. And what made you think I was unaware of LNG? I am well aware of it's potential. I see it as a temporary a fix until we can permanently lessen our dependency on foreign fuel. Besides isn't this a global warming proponents wet dream, a dwindling carbon based resource that will finally force us to address alternative forms of energy. Yup. Global warming is one big wet dream.
