Love and blessing to all.

I am sorry to ask you for help, but we need your help. If you have some time please can you take this survey? Do you think the risk of offshore drilling is too great?

"I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent."
-- Mohandas K. Gandhi

In the prologue of the world to day are cities have crumbled we are now in the crumbling remnants of the breakdown of civilization. Life has now become a whirlwind of looting and a firestorm of fear, in which 'men began to feed on men. Now I believe that nature had made a mistake and that human's were probably a cancerous organism on the planet.

If a big burp of gas is enough to blow up a rig, as we have seen here, then the rig isn't built for the job.

The fumbling of equipment never having the ability to do the job and off the cuff Jerry-rig ideas, one after another shows that this was not thought out for sure.
What would they do if a hurricane came dead on to one of these rigs?

If I treated my customers like BP treats everyone, I would be out of business, but that goes for a lot of other things as well.

I hope that their ecologists have thought of it, because if it happens, the devastation will be spread over hundreds and maybe thousands of miles.

This is why research into alternative fuels is absolutely vital, and our governments should be urged to keep funding it.
still finding my way around...

Interesting thing to ponder,
Oil "is the alternative energy".

Prior to this discovery and application of fossil fuels we had all that we are considering "alternative" now. 8-)

Now get this;
If we study what people have realized about the great pyramids, that within them are elaborately decorated interiors, and of them, is one of many stories told on the walls.
This story is of an electric lighting they used which was organic. It is not hard to imagine that lighting the interior of one of these by torches would suffocate if not just make the workers seriously ill. As best we can tell, geography and many things were different 3k years ago, and apparently the Egyptians had a way to take simply organic methods and make crude batteries using metals and citric acids set up in clay jugs. They also had a methods yet to be fully understood, that would work like a light bulb.
Such is the story in the walls.

Second hand solar.. so to speak.

I wouldn't want to stray too far off-topic and ask about these batteries, so just
