[CndUltra88]

This whole thing is a hoax and scheme  to get more tax revenue without calling it a tax, just call it something else,

That's the whole story in a nutshell.

Wow! I didn't know there were so many "environmentally conscious" members here, so I'd like to share a recycling tip.

I like to recycle used motor oil, but often it's just a pain to take it to the auto parts store. So here's what I do:

Find an old, mostly used bucket(s) of paint. Carefully pour your used oil into the bucket, and tightly seal the lid. Then place the bucket in a plain paper bag, and put the whole thing in the trash can. Eventually, that oil will find its way back to wherever it came from.

The problem with that is it makes it to the ground water first. There is no new water. http://www.capitalgroundwater.org/h2oquiz/govtbasics.shtml

Like the Goverment needs a hoax or scheme to raise taxes.  

But, you don't hear much about acid rain anymore.

Specialx1, you can close your windows now, it's getting warmer here in Pa.
Now, if you could just make the sun come out and stop the drizzle so I could ride,
I'd be behold'n to ya.

I went out in the yard and exhaled on the trees to feed them carbon dioxide.
They in turn exhaled to "feed" me oxygen.
We all feel much better.      (with the exception of Al Gore)

Water does not emulsify with oil and vise versa. If you actually saw a pump station for municipal drinking water you would probably not be real pleased. The machinery and pumps are all lubricated with petroleum products and the excess and runoff is all over the place.

It sure is refreshing to log onto this sight and find some like minded individules emphasis on "individules"

I work with a bunch of Liberal followers that drive me crazy over this man made global warming hoax, I keep telling them that I would have to be pretty arrogant to believe I can change the weather!

I wouldn't describe myself as a 'greenie' at all but, as a family, we have three bins: recycling, organics, and rubbish (landfill), use low energy bulbs, and don't waste electricity (NZ is nuclear free so the electricity is EXPENSIVE).

Once all that is taken care of I fill up the tank on my bike and burn the bloody lot as fast as I can!  ;-)

I wonder if Al Bore flew around in his 10,000 LBS/fuel/hr jet to make sure everyone had their lights off.

Wake me up when the New Revolution starts.
