The Sunless City and Sin Crude invested 6 billion last year in The
Fart, north of Eskimoton. That is CDN dollars not lire. Prodo cost
is 11 a barrel.

So nobody wants to put a billion into VZ to make tar oil a drug on
the market. And Smilin Jack couldn't make it with 50K barrel a day
pumpers in then Arctic. So Amoco got all the ground. Fingers. And
nobody talks about Arctic tar.

Solvex had some process that they were trying to hide, possibly
alcohol or bio remediation. There are bug proci. But 30 mill won't
do it so its no surprise they flamed out. They were trying to make
it doing metal ex too with what was basically a pilot plant to stalk
investor. The trouble is getting ground. You have to go for the low
grade north stuff. a few have said Solvex was scamoila but it may
not have been. What is the real scam is business as usual in AB.

Invention, discovery, brains are "nice". But stupid money has the
last word. And if you ain't related to it you had better listen.

Give you an example of money being cute. A fund manager wants my
advice on stock So I send. One day I broach the idea of flow
through shares to do some drilling in NO. Well he tells me I can
stick those flow through shares up my ass. He has a billion. He wants
the low down on a few mill for his fund so he can look good. But
no give. Me give all. Get 20 a month. I understand slavery but so
I don't have to go through it to get a degree. Now maybe I am wrong
to ask but he don't even send the 20 a month. Money is ungrateful too.
Maybe it has no time. Small wonder the peon rebels in LA.
