How the Copenhagen Climate Treaty Will Affect Equity Markets

mr. shaw and others--

should such a treaty gain USA approval, will it be as successful[worldwide] as OUR non proliferation treaty for nuclear weapons? should we expect better compliance? how will it be enforced?

i believe history sends a message to us here in the USA. we should not "screw ourselves to the wall" in the belief that other's national interests will reflect our own. CAVEAT EMPTOR!!

Natural Gas and the Potential for Change

the gov't does thru current tax incentives for individuals, plus local utilities add more. these primarily in areas supplied with nat gas. further incentives contained in HR offered by rep Boren et.al. are you aware? if not,search and read. then contact your USA reps for action. show your personal interest thru action!

The U.S. Dollar and Oil: Is an Endgame Near?

the nation's problem is excessive debt and there is no solution to this on the horizon. we will live with a worsening status until default occurs or the debt is corrected through our own fiscal discipline. we could afford a $trillion/year in oil.etc. if we had not placed ourselves in jeopardy through years of fiscal delusion and self indulgence as policy.

the worth and credibility of the US dollar reflects us and our national standards. we are the problem, not our choice of energy.

if energy source were our BIG problem, it would be settled quickly and easily.

THE WORLD MOVES ON!
