Harry, I am curious. Why are you starting all this political crap
again?




Gas prices impact boating in a serious way. Ignore at your peril.

Harry, I agree that gas prices and availability are significant
boat-related issues. What's more interesting to me than bush-bashing is
the idea of a hydrogen-dependent economy and how to convert gas and diesel
powered boats to hydrogen powered boats when the time comes (if ever).

I also wonder at what point the price of gas will make an alternative fuel
such as hydrogen and conversion of our infrastructure financially
feasable.

I also wonder if hydrogen is feasable mechanically and if it is truly
renewable.


I wonder if lack of demand can actually affect fuel prices. I mean, I keep
hearing that prices are rising because of higher demand from China. And, in
theory, Americans would prefer that prices be lower. I think I'm right about
that, but I could be wrong. Somebody let me know if I'm wrong about that,
OK?

So, if we'd like prices to be lower, I wonder why so many people are doing
the exact opposite of what it takes to make that happen.

I'm not sure we can make a dent in demand anymore. I might be wrong, but I
think the demand for oil in China (if that is a true assertion) will
outstrip any decreased demand in the U.S. My take is that we need a fuel
source that we can make in the U.S. from U.S. resources owned by U.S.
companies.

I find that attitude disturbing. In effect, you're saying that Americans
can't be counted on to do much of anything except bitch & whine. What's
interesting, though, is that nobody's asked us to do anything different.
Politicians are afraid to mess with The Religion.

You're a teacher. Would your work be affected in any way by driving to work
in an Impala or Camry, instead of perhaps a Suburban?
