Probably true. And some Democrats believe that sitting in a pyramid-shaped building will cure lung cancer, heart disease and AIDS. But both of these statements (mine and yours) are too meaningless to be worth stating.
I know nothing about the head of Exxon's politics nor his views on resource depletion. Where did you find this information, or did you just imagine it?
There are serious petroleum scientists who cite the association of Helium with petroleum deposits as evidence that Petroleum, unlike coal, is not a "Fossil Fuel" but has some other geologic source. No known biological process generates Helium, but the Earth's core releases it as its radioactive components decay.
Right now, we're using deposits that are reletively easy to find and relatively easy to extract, so the idea of oil from a hole in a Swedish volcano remains a curiosity. But it is under investigation.
"All the oil mankind can ever use" is a nonsequitor--at some point, petroleum will become expensive enough that we stop using it and hence we won't, strictly speaking "run out," so much as switch to alternatives as they become available.
Woe betide all those highly skilled Diesel road sign maintainers now that their jobs have been displaced by solar LED signs.
Right, so because I'm asking some guy who makes a vague bullshit statement to back it up with an actual cite or something, I'm being obtuse. I see what your standards are.
By the way, are you the same guy who was posting as "Georeg" for a while?
None of this has anything to do with those people being Republicans, and these alleged beliefs do not extend to all Republicans. There are probably even Democrats who don't understand science, believe it or not.
Hell, there are Democrats who don't even know what the word "ban" means - they must not, since they claim that "We won't use federal money to fund any NEW LINES of stem cell research" means "George Bush banned stem cell research".
Because an anonymous coward's opinions are worth exactly nothing. You can't back up your noise with any sort of facts, and you're hiding who you are. Just noise in the background. If you cared about what you say, you'd have the balls to back it up with who you are.
So subscribe to a spam filtering service, or buy a program that does it, or install SpamAssassin.
I've got a great sense of humor, but when some leftist posts unsubstantiated crap, I call him on it, and he says "Whoa, I was just kidding", I'm the one accused of having a problem? With all due respect, bullshit.
Dave, generally, I have agreed with your points in this "debate", but here you are beating a dead horse. He provided the requested way to contact him via email, in the portion of the post you did not quote. Like him, I have recently changed emails, and while the bayesian filter did a great job before, it is even better not to get any, so that the annoying 1-2% doesn't slip through.
I post under my real name. Exactly what is proved by using an email address? I can fake an email address as easily as a name.
If you want the source of my info, go to the library and start sifting through back issues of Time magazine. I have better things to do than try to appease a suspicious jerk like you.
Right, he did provide it after being asked, that's true. I am pointing out that there are more effective ways to do it. zaep (from zaep.com) is a challenge/response program that runs on Windows; a sender has to do a one-time "Yes, I'm a real person" in order for their emails to get through. 30 bucks or something, and unless your whitelisted people turn into spammers, 100% effective. Spamcop.net, for 20 or 30 bucks a year, is about 99% effective, does pop and imap, and webmail.
When someone is posting bullshit anonymously, and proposes that their reason for being anonymous is for anti-spam, rather than because they just want to make noise and not say who they are, that explaination is suspect at best.
Great cite, Mike. Good to know you can back up your statements with facts. Now we just have to work on the part about it being irrelevant to anything at all.
However, their showtime show is _not_ about magic, and _is_ about reality. No shills. The idiots were all real people (cherrypicked, perhaps, like Leno does, but real).
And in our present situation, one small part of said humankind, not having enough oil of its own, sacrifices its 18 yr olds and a whole bunch of ingrate "sand nggers" in order to assure a plentiful supply to burn up in 5,000 lb vehicles and 12 ft "cathedral" ceilings.
