What's Good for Citi - And What's Good for America [View article]
Sounds like the common hard working taxpayer that keeps his bills paid & never takes a dime vs the scumbag that gets a million dollar mortgage with no job and a sub 500 credit rating. Both the failing banks and the scumbag leave us to pay their debts.
Carbon Cap-and-Trade Could Increase Coal Usage [View article]
AlexS: Some of the SWAP processes are precombustion and others are postcombustion. Go to The US Patent Office site for a detailed description. www.faqs.org/patents/a...
According to the swapsol.com website: "Dr. Roy Drayton, president of THS, Inc. verified the chemical kinetics proving the SWAP is ready for full-scale industrial implementation." I believe that qualifies the SWAP processes to be a DOE stage Four company. Are you wondering how something like this happened without becoming news before now? Start with No government funding, then add a heaping measure of the best guidance available.
I do not blaime anyone for being skepticle. I have known Ray since 1963. For me investing in SWAP was an easy decision. Proclaimimg the SWAP processes was easier for me because of Ray covering all of the bases. And I have the documentation to back up my statements.
Good Morning John. Excellent Article to wake up to. I hope that I someday I will get a chance to talk with you in person. I like your comment about "leaving issues to better-informed writers". Causes me to focus my attention on a much anticipated early retirement. I will leave you with this thought: Have you noticed that today's babies are born walking, NO, make that running!
Thanks for the correction, I still stand by my proclamations. The lost production is substantial, but the cost savings to me and the consumers of those products is greater. Consider brake rotors for your car, twenty years ago cost for a GM model (86 Park AVE) brake rotor was over $125 at Advanced Auto. After NAFTA the same rotor was $18. I have saved Thousands since NAFTA on car parts alone. The spectrum has shrunk but the gross dollar value did increase along with increased worker productivity. The point is that only with energy consumption was it possible to accomplish. Today's Electric power is more reliable. Because of that computerized production systems are much more reliable and that allows us to maintain high production rates. efficiencies.
By exporting the mundane jobs we free up those workers to maintain and operate the computerized systems. There is a shortage of workers in this country, how else do you explain the illegal immigrants flocking to this country?
To paraphrase the old saying "You cannot stop a frieght on a dime" the same holds true about our economy. Our economy is driven by all forms of energy and the world of power generation (all forms) is about to change. The price of Oil will increase BUT the increase effect will be relativly less, while the value produced from that same amount of oil (and all hydrocarbons) will be greatly increased. Mark Perry's graphs shows that in spite of low value jobs being outsourced overseas the value of USA's goods have increased AND the output per worker increased at the same time proves that this could only happen due to the way we used energy. We are not only working smarter we are utilizing our reliable energy sources to accomplish this great feat.
The state of our economy is just a small bump in the road. A predictable happening anytime there is a great change. The way I see it the truly savvy investors have been selling their assets (some at an unexplainable losses) in order to better position themselves to take advantage of the unavoidable economic explosion that is about to happen. We are entering a time where we will get far more "mileage" from the the energy we consume. Not only will burning fossil fuels be more efficient we will be producing valuable products from what was waste (CO2 & other waste products). Resulting in reduced cost for Environmental concerns, power generation, waste disposal, shipping, handling of waste products and higher profits from the same amount of energy resources used.
Now take a look at the graphs and realize the effects on our GNP. Last week I proclaimed that the National Debt would be paid off in TEN years. Today Obama claimed that his plan will cut the National Debt by half in FOUR YEARS! Still think that I have been smoking? While you are thinking thinking about it, think about this: If the SWAP processes can have this kind of effect with this tightly focused area.......What will be the overall effect on the rest of our worlds economy? Cheaper energy EQUALS more jobs. MORE Jobs EQUALS stronger Economies.
Now figure in the other Great Things that we are hearing about and hang onto your hat!
The Great Awakening: Boomers, Your Crisis Has Arrived (Part 3 of 3) [View article]
Tom your article is about to take on a Greater Awakening.
1) I agree with most of your statement. The exception is this: The younger generations will not be paying higher taxes in order to pay off the stimulus package. Barring the Powers That Be blocking the SWAP processes. The economy is soon to be stronger than anyone could hope for. As I proclaimed the Stimulus debt will be paid off in ten years with the tax revenues from the carbon fibers alone.
2) This is going to sound like the SWAP processes are the center of all, but something this big will have this kind of effect.
Bailing out the Bad Banks it would be less likely to concentrate the wealth vs letting them fail and thereby concentrating more wealth in the hands of the few survivors . (lesser of the two evils)
On the other hand:
Remember the lead/carbon batteries? I believe that the cost of the carbons needed will be very affordable thanks to the SWAP processes. That and carbon fiber car bodies should make electric cars safer and very competitive.
The SWAP processes used to generate electricity will make clean abundant and very cheap electricity for transportation energy of choice.
The SWAP processes make it possible to increase the capacity of our existing electric grid using the Right of Ways and towers already in place by replacing the heavy metal cable conductors with strong light weight high capacity carbon fiber cables. (less need for expensive Right of Way and Environmental development cost).
The list of benefits from the use of SWAP processes goes on and on.
3) Again the SWAP processes are Global processes that will bring dollars home by way of license fees and royalties, thereby reducing the need for protectionism.
4) No comment.
5) No comment
6) There is another possibility, The revenues generated from over 25 billion tons of carbon dioxide waste each year being combined with other waste byproducts to make 25 + billion tons world wide each year of valuable construction products will soon pay back the loans need now AND put millions of workers back to work using all of that new carbon fiber building material.
7) As soon as the short sellers are brought under control, real demand for oil, coal and gas will occur through What else.....the use of the SWAP processes to generate electricity more efficiently and produce carbon fibers used to produce everything from light weight electrically conducting cables for our new power grid and low cost carbon for lead carbon batteries to car and aircraft bodies, high strength light weight carbon armor plating, high strength extruded carbon fiber tubing and even I beams for bridges & buildings. Starting to get the picture?
8) The Military Industrial Complex will grow stronger.... Without a doubt! But hopefully without a conflict to prove itself. The abundance of strong economical carbon fibers for every aspect of our Industrial Complex combined with all forms of clean economical energy and the strongest economy ever known.......well need I say more?
9) Say what you want about Boomers, (sorry Ray there is no denighing that you are a preboomer) the Boomers like me are making the SWAP processes happen!
10) In light of the aforementioned, do you still think that the economy is doomed?
11) Energy, NOT just Oil, is the lifeblood of our society. At the present time anything can happen but given the good that is in the hearts of the Baby Boomers and the SWAP processes we have a very real opportunity for Peace on Earth!
12) GO HUG YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS, THE SOLUTIONS ARE REAL!
Life After Coal: Coming Sooner than You Think [View article]
How much of the Western coal production has been due to the restrictions placed on high sulpher coal?
Tom, your Peak Coal Accounting is flawed. There is at least one Clean Coal Technology available, SWAP processes., that resolve most if not all of the issues of burning all coal (waste coal and all hydrocarbon containing materials). The Swap processes are exothermic and therefore inhance the energy reserves. While making it possible to reduce the cost of generating electricity to less than zero. The SWAP processes will change the real value of Coal (and ALL hydrocarbon materials) to construction materials (carbon fibers and other valuable products) while retaining their energy value.
The SWAP processes are the basis of my Proclamations.
The Great Awakening: Boomers, Your Crisis Has Arrived (Part 3 of 3) [View article]
Great post Rosey, yours like so many other post echoed one common theme to me. That is that many of us want to contribute something to help "move on with our lives" and do so with the maximum positive impact to our world. You all can help and achieve a very great and positive impact on our world. You can do this by checking out AND then spreading the news about SWAP . These Patent Pending processes are unbelievable Environmental and Economical beneficial solutions that consumes waste products like Carbon dioxide and combines them with other waste to make valuable industrial materials (hydrogen, carbon fibers to name a few) in great volumes. Which makes it possible to 1) economically burn hydrogen to generate power and 2) a cheap source of carbon fibers for stronger than steel construction materials. World wide there are literally billions of tons of waste that can be used instead of being dumped into OUR Environment. You can start NOW! Most of my post are about SWAP processes. Here is part of their statements:
permanently removes carbon dioxide from the carbon cycle by converting CO2 into stable, industrially valuable solids and liquids and/or solids, liquids and gases at very moderate temperatures while giving off energy in chemical reactions with abundantly available natural or man made industrial waste, offers the only safe large scale alternative to burying carbon dioxide to abate global warming, converts hydrocarbon waste materials (virtually everything in your trash other than metals and minerals such as glass) into valuable industrial chemicals and hydrogen, streamlines the refining of crude "sour" natural gas and oil, with less capital equipment and lower operating costs, streamlines the conversion of coal into hydrogen and make the combustion of hydrogen, the world's cleanest burning fuel, in power plants an economic possibility, makes possible the extrusion of carbon fiber structures such as I beams, sheets, tubes, etc. that are electrically conductive or electrically resistive as desired, makes polyurethane-like foams out of two very abundant, inexpensive ingredients
Together WE can make it happen!

Coal Won't Be Replaced Anytime Soon [View article]
Billp37: I read the referenced article. One thought comes to mind is the possibility that cables made from conductive Carbon fibers could be one solution. They would be much lighter than conventional conductors and therefore the existing HV system towers could be utilized to to carry the additional capacity needed. That would save time and expense ( right of ways, towers, enviromental issues ect....). As I see it, economical electrically conductive carbon fibers are to be had in the near future. With more and more people, everyday, becomming believers in the the new SWAP processes it could happen in the VERY near future.

Need to make the goals higher and due before 2020 to earn the maximum "brownie points". There will be no problem meeting any Carbon OR Carbon dioxide reduction goals (even near zero emissions) with the SWAP processes. The SWAP processes are the best and only Carbon destroying process ever discovered. This process combines industrial waste and Carbon OR Carbon dioxide to destroy Carbon while generating a considerable profit.
Believe it! The SWAP processes are based on KNOWN chemistry practices AND have been independantly confirmed.
Lead-Acid, Lead-Carbon Batteries: The Only Option for Average Consumer [View article]
One thing that I have not seen mentioned is the effect of driving in a mountainous region vs driving in a flat region of the country. Common sense tells me that it would take more energy to drive up hill. Even if you take into account utilizing the down hill grade to generate/recover the power there would be greater losses vs steady load conditions. Could you explain more on the difference between driving on a more or less level road vs driving on a mountainous terrain?
