Was there a depression as big as 1929 when there was a

previous
oil
shortage? Do you not think there are modern safeguards in

place
to
protect us against that, even IF it were to happen?

Yes, I'd be employed. There would be just as much work
designing
new,
more energy efficient buildings. There would be a

sprouting up to meet energy requirements using

alternative
means. A
novel idea, our economy could suffice on NEW

technology.
The
right
wing
just wants to keep us in the dark ages, as always.

Hell,
when
motor
cars first started appearing, people NEVER thought

they'd
replace
the
horse. Especially on farms. How many horses do you see

on
working,
profitable farms today?



As I said, you better take an economics course. There was a

small
recession
when the price quickly rose up during the 70's. Lots of

Silicon
Valley was
out of work as well as a lot of the rest of the country.

That
was
just
cost, not supply. There was a supply problem. Remember the

odd
/
even days
for gas and the long lines. That is nothing compared to a

60%
lack
of
energy supplies. Most every manufacturing job in the country

will be
gone
while the search for energy reigns supreme.

My god you are dense. We produce enough oil right here to meet

demands,
IF conservative measures are used. We certainly have enough to

keep
afloat while new forms of energy are either made cost

effective, or
developed entirely. Who do you think will be doing the research

and
development? Building specialized buildings, and infrastrucure?
Designing those?


Probably not you. Probably very few. They will use existing

buildings as we
will be short of the supplies to build new infrastructure. As

to
having
enough oil to survive. Yes we do have enough. But it is in the

ground, in
areas that are not being drilled. How long do you think the ramp

up
to
drill in ANWAR, off the California Coast, etc. will take? Too

long
to stave
off a very large rescession.


So, let me get this straight. IF we were to be dependent on OUR oil
resources, you think that the only thing people will do is lie down

and
die? Perhaps YOU are mentally resourceful enough to do so, but most
educated people in the U.S. will work very hard developing

technology
already in research stages, as well as working on new technologies.
Again, you probably remember this, and I've read about it. When
gasoline engines were developed enough to actually be useful,

people
NEVER thought that tractors would replace farm horses, and cars

would
replace buggies. You are using that exact form of narrow

mindedness.
Look back at the recession. A LOT of good technology came from

that. If
you remember, before that, cars were huge, heavy, and the engines

of
the day, while powerful, weren't fuel efficient. Now days, the
horsepower produced from a given gallon of gas is much greater.


Sure there will be a very small minority employed in the search for
alternative energy sources. Just as there were people employed

during the
"Great Depression".


There will never be another "great depression.

As to fuel efficiency, most has come from smaller
lighter vehicles. Maybe 5% from technology. My 1964 FI Corvette got

about
16.5 mpg on average and on the highway got about 18 mpg. This is

with a 375
HP 327 CID / 5.3L engine. My 1999 5.4L Ford Expedition FI, weight is

50%
more than the Corvette got 14.5 mpg or less around town and 16.5 mpg

max on
the highway. You are highly mistaken if you do not think there would

be a
"Extremely Great Depression".


Gee, do you think that maybe "lighter vehicles" were the result of
technology? Now, that 5% part is PURE horse****. Yesterday's
carburated, heavy large displacement engines were NO match for today's

There will never be another "great depression.

As to fuel efficiency, most has come from smaller
lighter vehicles. Maybe 5% from technology. My 1964 FI Corvette got

about
16.5 mpg on average and on the highway got about 18 mpg. This is

with a 375
HP 327 CID / 5.3L engine. My 1999 5.4L Ford Expedition FI, weight is

50%
more than the Corvette got 14.5 mpg or less around town and 16.5 mpg

max on
the highway. You are highly mistaken if you do not think there would

be a
"Extremely Great Depression".


Gee, do you think that maybe "lighter vehicles" were the result of
technology? Now, that 5% part is PURE horse****. Yesterday's
carburated, heavy large displacement engines were NO match for today's


Believe what you want.

But, there would be new firms working on new ways to do

things.
Was there a depression as big as 1929 when there was a

previous
oil
shortage? Do you not think there are modern safeguards in

place
to
protect us against that, even IF it were to happen?

Yes, I'd be employed. There would be just as much work
designing
new,
more energy efficient buildings. There would be a

technologies/a
sprouting up to meet energy requirements using

alternative
means. A
novel idea, our economy could suffice on NEW

technology.
The
right
wing
just wants to keep us in the dark ages, as always.

Hell,
when
motor
cars first started appearing, people NEVER thought

they'd
replace
the
horse. Especially on farms. How many horses do you see

on
working,
profitable farms today?



As I said, you better take an economics course. There was a
small
recession
when the price quickly rose up during the 70's. Lots of

Silicon
Valley was
out of work as well as a lot of the rest of the country.

That
was
just
cost, not supply. There was a supply problem. Remember the

odd
/
even days
for gas and the long lines. That is nothing compared to a

60%
lack
of
energy supplies. Most every manufacturing job in the country
will be
gone
while the search for energy reigns supreme.

My god you are dense. We produce enough oil right here to meet
demands,
IF conservative measures are used. We certainly have enough to

keep
afloat while new forms of energy are either made cost

effective, or
developed entirely. Who do you think will be doing the research

and
development? Building specialized buildings, and infrastrucure?
Designing those?


Probably not you. Probably very few. They will use existing
buildings as we
will be short of the supplies to build new infrastructure. As

to
having
enough oil to survive. Yes we do have enough. But it is in the
ground, in
areas that are not being drilled. How long do you think the ramp

up
to
drill in ANWAR, off the California Coast, etc. will take? Too

long
to stave
off a very large rescession.

So, let me get this straight. IF we were to be dependent on OUR oil
resources, you think that the only thing people will do is lie down

and
die? Perhaps YOU are mentally resourceful enough to do so, but most
educated people in the U.S. will work very hard developing

technology
already in research stages, as well as working on new technologies.
Again, you probably remember this, and I've read about it. When
gasoline engines were developed enough to actually be useful,

people
NEVER thought that tractors would replace farm horses, and cars

would
replace buggies. You are using that exact form of narrow

mindedness.
Look back at the recession. A LOT of good technology came from

that. If
you remember, before that, cars were huge, heavy, and the engines

of
the day, while powerful, weren't fuel efficient. Now days, the
horsepower produced from a given gallon of gas is much greater.


Sure there will be a very small minority employed in the search for
alternative energy sources. Just as there were people employed

during the
"Great Depression".

Asslicker once again shows why he is the "king of NG idiots"

Most of the weight taken from current production is derived fom reducing
the load.........thinner sheet metal, unibody construction instead of
frames, shaving fractions of ounces off of every part in the car.......like
springs and brackets in the brake system, plastic instead of metal parts,
etc etc.

What does that mean? Door dings from the slightest touch, higher and more
frequent repair costs. More deaths from lighter weight vehicles

I see that you still aren't adult enough to debate something without
childish name calling. Have a lonely weekend? How's things going
raising your kid? Get enough support from usenet?
