Book Review: Robert Hefner's 'The Grand Energy Transition'

fitz--[comment to jamup]--
most heavy duty, long range,or high torque reqts will require LNG. REFERENCE CLNE[two current high capacity LNG plants[TEX/CALIF]. Westport and Westport Cummins web sites. also ngvammerica. taxi, auto fleets, trash/utility, buses focus on CNG. the toughies use LNG. many large facility stations supplying both CNG, LNG will use LNG feeders.

Cramer's Stop Trading - Peabody Is in Freefall (3/2/09)

remember, cramer is a person who has been hot and cold on geithner and bernanke several times over the past months. consistent focus and rationale have not been his most significant attributes. he is an entertainment after all, keeping ratings and sponsors $$$$$ is his objective for CNBC.

Cramer's Stop Trading - Peabody Is in Freefall (3/2/09)

cramer must come up with a script every day for entertainment with a bit of psuedo-analysis thrown in. there is no consistent theme for him to sell, except neuroses. that's what you see. he made his fame on tv as showman during a powerful up market, which contained many themes from which to select. on the up side his schtick was easy. it is no longer so.
if you wish his type entertainment, watch but don't listen with an ear toward investment advice.
