Fuck God for making hydrocarbons!! Poor people do poor people things, and rich people do rich people things. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it! when you rob Paul to give to Peter ... ... ... you will always get Peters support! :Brieffromnativea: |

Rex Kristos User ID: 90749 United States 05/17/2010 09:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The good news is what a great heatsink oil is, compared to water. Those early tropical systems should get up to about Cat 9. Quoting: Evil TwinBeen doing some research on oil/ocean albedo. It has the odd effect of stopping sunlight from reaching the depths and cooling the ocean overall at the same time greatly increasing heat at the surface... "And though I believe in the ineffable glory of God, and though I might have experienced the undeniable reality of the Deity, and though I may know the secrets of the ages, these do not fulfill the Love in my heart. But to Change and Be and Do and dissolve both the subject of my person and the object of my God into the fluency of Empirical Providence. The Way, the Truth, and the Life." |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 940676 United States 05/17/2010 09:47 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The creeps who did this are evil, they are Bloodsuckers of Mother Earth Herself. Ancient spiritual traditions from all over the Earth revere the Earth as a Goddess, not just some 'Lump of Dirt' but a living being. The Red we are seeing in the Ocean is her blood itself... Quoting: nirvana666 973673The fuckers who did this shit may just kick our planet out of its rotation. The Blood (Oil) is in the Earth for a freakin reason fools. Interesting to note: Hindu scriptures say oil helps maintain gravity and balance of the earth, in fact there is a story in one of the Hindu scriptures where it is said that ages/eons ago the demons upset the balance of the earth by removing her Blood (oil) , thus upsetting her balance, resulting in the Earth falling into the lower parts of the Universe. And it was recovered by incarnation of Vishnu after fighting with the demons. * I am not a Hindu, much in these stories are mythology, however I do find this interesting as the story is in fact quite old and indicates something like this could have happened long long ago. I agree w/your sentiments and thank you for sharing the Hindu story. I for one believe "myths" hold more truth than the neatly packaged history with the huge missing pieces we are encouraged to just ignore. |

Quoting: Mister ObviousHere is a partial list of the things we will eventually have to say "good-bye" to, when we get rid of (or 'FUCK') petroleum. 1. Petroleum Jelly (Vaseline-- that's a fun one) 2. The automobile, including so-called hybrids. Park it and take public transit instead. Or some kinds of public transit. Other kinds will be gone too. 3. Bicycles. Yep, because of the tires (oil based.. no more rubber trees) and the paint dyes, various lubricants, etc, etc. 4. Pharmaceuticals, including Vicodin, Oxycodone, hydrocodone and the others that both help and hurt you. This means both tablets and capsules. You can thank the Rockefellers for creating this monstrous monopoly. 5. Vitamin supplements when they are in the form of tablets or capsules. 6. Anything made of plastic. That's a real long list, obviously. 7. Cell phones, because of the plastic and other components. That's OK though because we are about to be hit by a massive epidemic of brain cancer from that. 8. Most clothing, due to the dyes in it. Get ready to dress like the Amish. 9. A vast and wide range of industrial chemicals. These are used to make the products which make life easier. 10. Computers, because of all the plastic components and numerous other parts and chemical products involved in the manufacture and usage. 11. Television. Same as above. 12. Radios. Ditto. 13. Crayons. Most of them are mostly petroleum anyway. That one will be tough to let go of. 14. Airplanes. No more air travel of any kind. Not only the kerosene but parts and applications too numerous to mention. 15. Combs and brushes. Well, any of them that are painted or plastic, anyway. 16. Virtually all modern farming. This is both because of the fuel needed to harvest the crops and livestock as well as the herbicides, pesticides and whatnot. OK, that is enough for now. You get the picture. Realize, it is wise not to take a stand on this issue, one way or the other. There are many valid an logical arguments either way and across the spectrum. In fact, we would be healthier without oil, both in the short run and in the longer run. But we would also be a lot less comfortable, at least for a while. Oh yeah, most heating and air conditioning would be gone too, both because of the functioning of these and for the various parts and components in the systems themselves. Sigh... |

The human deserves death for his crimes he allows those few that rule over him to destroy the planet and rule over it in such a way that it resembles some B sci fi horror movie. Everyone too concerned with themselves humans are doomed. Just wait till the other billions reach America and Europes level on consumption/destruction. Without immediate and sudden change - Human activity must be controlled and the population reduced drastically. |

Plastics can be produced from vegetable oils and are then biodegradable and non-toxic. Alternative energy sources are available. The oil companies probably own the patents which they then suppress. These are most likely to be cleaner and infinite. These could power our transportation systems from personal cars, buses, trains, trucking, shipping and aircraft. Same with agriculture equipment. Pharmaceuticals were synthesized to replace the natural source such as opium. Traditional dyes from natural sources. Organic farming would become more viable with cheaper, cleaner energy sources powering the equipment to transport compost, etc. Who wants to eat food with artificial fertilizer (polonium?) pesticides and herbicides anyway? Some oil could be used to manufacture synthetic rubber or whatever natural vegetable sources could not supplant. Get the picture? Maybe polluted air, water, earth and food make you more comfortable? |

You forgot to read the last two paragraphs up above, especially the first one. Like most other major and complex issues, there is no definitive "right" or "wrong" on this one. The only clear-cut truth is that we would be healthier without oil, especially in the long run. In fact, the problem here started in the late 19th century, when certain very greedy and very powerful types deliberately set out to artificially engineer petroleum so deeply into all of our lives that we would become hopelessly addicted to it indefinitely. Now, just as with any addiction, it is going to hurt like hell to let go of it. In fact, we won't let go of it -- unless forced to as a result of a first magnitude act of nature -- a distinct possibility.... anytime soon, and for just that reason. Once this leak is capped, the spill is contained, or at least limited, and the oil is slowly cleaned up from places far and wide, this whole thing will be blissfully forgotten. And then it will be back to business as usual, without further ado. And no form of logic will dictate the circumstances.. just as with all of the other addictions. Most would rather not think of these things, however. Instead, they'd prefer to just say, "FUCK OIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!" It's OK. None of us will be here for very long anyway. That is how this experience works. We live and learn. |
