Peak Oil as a Direct Result of Misallocation of Funds

PAUL8756 i know you and most of the posters(no matter your political views) are sick of corruption and having to choose between the lesser of two evils. who wants to vote for evil? please read THE BATTLE OF ATHENS. IT IS A TRUE STORY. ATHENS TENNESSEE NOT GREECE. the author set out to discredit the participants but ended up siding with them. i know it is a fairly accurate account because my father and some uncles had a small hand in it and as a teenager i dated the daughter of the youngest kennedy brother. see how ww2 veterans reacted to corrupt county politics when they returned home. the governor was afraid to call in the national guard because he knew they would side with the veterans. and the state troopers refused to act against the soldiers. as my old dad often commented, THRICE ARMED IS HE WHOSE CAUSE IS JUST. pickens is setting a great example. we all agree whether we are in total agreement or not with him, he is doing something and i know we admire that. if nothing else it is an interesting little piece of american history.
