When I see the section 179 deduction on 6000lb GVW stood on its head in favor of high gas mileage instead, then I'll believe America understands it's addictions. If I were any OPEC pol, and Paulson, or Bush came a'begging, I'd get down on the floor and roll around laughing, chanting "section 179, section 179..." What annoys me is that all the people who decry the unfunded federal liabilities being punted to our kids and grandkids, seem to fail to realise that drilling all our remaining reserves so we can use them now is no different. Our generation does not need to steal all the cookies.

These A&^%*&^%-ng- ================== Fed official rules against Fall River LNG terminal By Associated Press \| Friday, June 27, 2008 \| bostonherald.com \| Local Coverage BOSTON - The U.S. Secretary of Commerce has decided a Massachusetts agency acted correctly when it objected to plans to build a liquefied natural gas terminal in Fall River. In a decision Thursday, U.S. Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez ruled that the project’s potential benefit to the nation would not outweigh the possible effects on the coastline. Gutierrez also said that while the project would increase New England’s access to LNG, Coast Guard officials are not convinced LNG tankers could safely navigate a nearby bridge. Massachusetts Attorney General Martha Coakley, who’s against the project, called the developers’ appeal an attempt to circumvent the state. A spokesman for Weaver’s Cove says the developers expect to file a new application with the state. Article URL: bostonherald.com
