Well, yeah.
I've got a beard IRL, too.
Aw, he's no fun, he fell right over.

Re: Biofuels have forced global food prices up by 75%
Did you grow it in anticipation of passion?
The problem I have with discussing freedom is that people have been conditioned to expect "of me to tell you what to do" to follow it... inevitably they notice I don't ever get to that part, and they feel like I am trying to trick them.
Sometimes before replying to a topic, I think to myself: I am just so original!

Re: Biofuels have forced global food prices up by 75%
Natural gas is a reasonably good alternative to coal and oil electrical generation. It's already set up. I'd like to see upgraded or expanded electrical generation capacity go to electric vehicles, if we're serious about alternatives, than creating a parallel fossil fuel distribution system system for vehicles which will likely go electric anyway, natural gas or not. Seems a wasteful enterprise unless you're in the business of gas distribution.

I'm seriously looking at a Honda natural gas Civic in the next few months.

Well I think overall we need to go to electric vehicles; but in the mean time, if we move over to natural gas, then we stop caring about the oil in the middle east and the fact that we import so much of it. And also the fact that natural gas is already distributed all over the country makes it pretty easy to set up.

There's that ridiculous mantra again. It has a life of its own.

Being that it's a mantra, wouldn't it be that it has an astral projection of its own?
