We are seeing that in our food prices right now far Won't matter how much oil we have if we run out of water, will it? Quote of the day. "We won't have oil tomorrow, if we don't go after it today". Got enough gas to run the genny for several days? I hope you guys in the northeast are taking this event seriously. They are taking it too seriously. Everything in the DC area is closed for the next two days. My wife had a rotator cuff repair this past Monday. She was supposed to see the Dr. today to get out of the sling, which is driving her crazy. She got a call last night that her appointment is cancelled because the government is closed, and the Dr's office follows the government's lead. Now she's looking at a couple more days in the sling. Not happy! It's all O'Bama's fault. Actlually, it's the damn dog's fault. She tore three tendons in her shoulder playing with the dog which was on a long leash. Both my wife and I injured our shoulders walking our 60lb Springer Spaniel on a 6 foot lead. He used to lunge a lot. Now my wife uses a General tle Leader harness that controls his head and I use an Easy Walker harness that controls his movements from his chest. He tends to pull when hooked up at his neck It took us a month to self heal from those shoulder injuries. Sandy had one tendon partially torn, one halfway torn, and one torn completely loose. She now has four screws in her shoulder. She'll probably be in the sling for at least a couple weeks. The doctor won't let her start physical therapy for two weeks. |

I don't want to insult you by spelling it wrong. I spell my name iBoaterer. But again, the answer you gave is not for the question I asked. We spell your name Kevin. Loogie loogy Kevin Iloogy or I boater. None of them are capable of answering questions. They all are as dumb as a post. If you are talking to me, what didn't I answer? 1st line is Q to U I'm not loogie. Loogy, Booger, iBoater = Kevin. Your identity has already been confirmed. You can stop the pretenses. |

By the time it really gets expensive they will be cracking coal and making liquid fuel from that. That is a fairly old technology that will be upgraded. It may really be the only way to have "clean coal" and coal is not going away. Water is a far more serious problem. They are depleting "fossil water" aquifers like the Ogalalla at an alarming rate. Just like oil, when they are gone, they are gone. That will shut down our midwest farms where most of our grains come from. In the central valley in CA, they sometimes pump those giant wells dry and have to wait for more water to seep in. You are a treasure trove of worthless information. |

You are never gonna' get him to accept that even though it's the most basic math ever... ========= "Actually, a barrel of oil is 42 gallons. When the barrel is processed, you may get something like 15 gallons of gasoline, 9 gal. of fuel oil, 10 gal. of jet fuel (Kerosene) and 4 gal of other "heavy" products such as lubricants, grease, asphalt / bitumene and plastics and 4 gallons of lighter condensates/naphtha." http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_much_gasoline_can_be_made_from_one_barrel_of_c rude_oil So the price of gas depends on a lot of things, not the least of which is supply and demand for not only gasoline, but also the other refining products. Transportation and taxes also enter into the retail pump price in a fairly major way. You see this in the considerable price differential between gas prices in New York and New Jersey. Areas with tight refining capacity like California also pay higher prices. |
