    Scott - yes, CLNE has possibilities, has gone up about 50 % recently. Pickens owns about 65% of it and I like his ideas. I expect that it will be some time before CLNE is profitable but I wish it well.

    193313 - Have you really looked at where they want to drill in ANWR - it is a salt water mud flat along the ocean. Prinstine indeed!

    Bronco Drilling Holder Wexford Capital Reiterates Opposition to Merger [view article]
    Wexford didn't think 17 was a bad price when it unloaded most of their holdings at 17 in 2005-2007. This is just a ploy to squeeze more money out of ALY. Reply

    Some of the best parts of the author's article came in his comments:
    600b being sent overseas, a lot of money to fuel extreme movements in other parts of the world, hate money to impliment terror activity for acts that others preceive the USA has done.(right or wrong) We lose twice. money we can use here and money to fight the people we sent it to.
    We need to take back control by putting our minds and money to work finding ways to solve our energy problems. Non- petroleum solutions will happen; by us, some other country, organization, or individual that fills the need. And the need is always filled. Will it be the people of the USA who do it ?
    Also, I saw referrence to oil canadian trust companies, but did not read about that group in the article.
    Did I miss somthing?     Reply

    Unfortunately, KPM is not an IRA holding candidate. The tax free feature is eliminated and must be passed through. Otherwise, I agree but prefer EP fro both entry price (about 20) and growth potential

    The key is allocating the resources where most efficient. Natural gas pipelines already exist to satisfy most winter home heating requirerments. NG for power plants should be minimized. The challange is to maximize converting residential users from oil to NG. Oil's dirty and expensive to transport and should be directed towards autos where refined product is pipelined. Nuclear obvioulsy needs to be controlled thus power plants. Get rid of coal burning; conversion to gas and/or liquids exclusively.

    Only the Fed can make this happen. Unfortunately, our elected officials have neither the fortitude or wisdom

    Let's say you have 100 apples. Now, you can eat the apples directly, or you can use them to make other things, like candied apples, apple pie, vinegar, apple cider, etc. If demand for apples is 1 per day, then math says you only have 100 days of apples. And I think we can all agree that after 100 days, we will also not have candied apples, apple pie, vinegar, cider, etc. To me the argument about oil is the same. We talk about using other technologies to supply our energy needs in the future, but are they not all derived ultimately from oil? Everything in our lives is derived to some extent from oil, unless you made it yourself, or picked it from your garden. So to me, to say that we should look to solar, nuclear, natural gas, wind, wave, or anything for our energy needs is moot. They still are only produced with oil. It's like saying we that we know we can't have anymore apples, but still expect there to be pies and cider. Further, any change to ANY other natural resource will still eventually lead to that resource's depletion, period. We unfortunately don't live on an infinite world with infinite resources. There is a limit to everything we won't to use. For that reason, I am a firm believer in Peak Oil, Peak Coal, Peak Natural Gas, Peak Wood, Peak Anything that we choose to use as an energy source. Switching to another energy source regardless of what it is, will still bring us, in the long run, to the same problem we are facing here. And shouldn't we be trying to solve the real problem, which is our form of civilization itself is unsustainable? We will run out of cheap energy someday, no matter if it is oil, coal, natural gas, or whatever. Would you rather be having this discussion in a hundred years when the population is much higher and the possible draw backs much worse? Or should we just deal with it now and get it over with? Or am I completely off-base and clueless as to how it works? Reply

    The author argues that we should let the market work in raising price of oil, which will then lead to all good things.

    Why, then, not let the market and private operators decide what to do with ANWR instead of the government?     Reply

    Would like to know how you come up with positive current values for companies like CHK and PDE if you are using a DCF model. Some of these companies have negative free cash flow.

    Please explain. Thanks.     Reply

    I just love how these "interactions&quo... about energy always finds it's way into the gutter. Terms like "idiots", "$#$%^ ", "stupid" to describe the author of the article or others who have a different opinion find their way into the mix. I guess about the only thing that is agreed upon is that the U.S. has no energy policy but to read the vehemence of some of the above post I guess that Congress is a reflection of the ignorant, $#$%^ and stupid public.

    he author and almost all the commenter's are idiots.
    No wonder we have a problem, and it's not likely to be solved.

    BTW,
    "For transportation, the world needs VLCCs -500,000 dead weight tons of steel."

    This ship doesn't have 500,000 tons of steel in it,
    rather it can carry that weight of cargo.

    Ah yes, you yearn for the life in the gulags. How simple it was. After a few years, you didn't yearn for the "wants" because you forgot what they were. All you cared about (all you could hope for) was a warm place in the winter, spring, and fall. Now you greenies can call that utopia ---- I call it misery.
