Where did I say that you said that? Since your statement "Is that one of your unbiased "mainstream" news services?" showed skpeticism about the news source, I conjectured if you thought if the news was fake. You could have answered or no. |

You are the "mainstream" is allways right, they never spin the news appologist, so why then is this not from something more "mainstream"?

They did not artificially create a crises, there were real power shortages caused by left wing politicians in the California state senate. I already explained to you how it was caused but you continue to shout your anti-capitalist non-sense. Guess what happens when you loose power stations and you have to provide more power then before you lost it. There are shortages!!! The only way to stop this is to raise prices to decrease demand but the so called "de"regulation bill put a cap on how much they could charge, making this impossible. So guess what if they are required by law to provide service to everyone, then there will have to be blackouts because there is only so much power being produced. |

Actually soy and hemp are damn good and your stupid asses should know that by now.
Here is an expirement to see if vegetable oil is good energy source. Put vegetable oil in a frying pan turn the burner on high. Stand on your drive way and call the fire department. Try it and find out why. Or what does your body use to make energy. I said plants not hemp. Oh dumb ****s as the United States Government makes very clear hemp and pot are not the same thing. Your dams destroy the environment. The environment that let life evolve to allow you to exist. If you do not think it would be a good thing to preserve life then kill it. Kill it all including yourself. Chernobyl. Have you seen the film "The Day After Tommorow" if man continues with his ignorant ways that will be our future and our demise. Quote:
Why so? Do you have a problem with soybeans? |

Cars will happily run (with some adjustment) on vegetable oil. So the power output isn't an issue. Yield might be an issue, but unless you know a quick way of crushing and processing dinosaurs vegetable based oils are likely to be a better long term solution than any other oil based solution. |
