Re: [Biofuel] Ten Ways to Prepare for a Post-Oil Society
Thanks for this article, I have read his book the The Long Emergency which is very good reading on this subject. I have read everything possible in the past year on Peak Oil and its ramifications for our future. I have tried to be very subjective in viewing all of the information that is available. And no matter how you look at it, it is coming and very soon. In all that I have been able to discern we will be looking at the beginning (or the start) sometime in 2011-12. The following is a good site to the information on all of our alternative energy sources and the weaknesses of all of them: http://www.lifeaftertheoilcrash.net/Index.html A.

Editor's Note: James Howard Kunstler is a leading writer on the topic of peak oil the problems it poses for American suburbia. Deeply concerned about the future of our petroleum dependent society, Kunstler believes we must take radical steps to avoid the total meltdown of modern society in the face looming oil and gas shortages. For background on this topic, read Kunstler's essay, Pricey Gas, That's Reality.

Re: [Biofuel] I.D. Cards and Rifers
Mike and D this is just the tip of the iceberg of what our government is doing to undermine our country and the US citizens. I have been sitting here and reading the posts of yours and Keith's, Mike W,Kirk Jason just to name a few. Now it has been brought to my attention concerning the mass human detention camps that was authorized on Jan 24, 2006 by the Dept. of Homeland Security, they gave a contract to Halliburton to construct 5 huge camps in various parts of the US. This is just an excerpt of the article: Don't mind that barbed wire Tuesday, February 07, 2006 I guess it only makes sense, in that Bushworld kinda way, that when the government starts building mass detention centers that Halliburton would get the contract: http://dneiwert.blogspot.com/2006/02/dont-mind-that-barbed-wire.html This is all done under the guise of detaining illegal immigrants, however I have discovered that the real reason is to house millions upon millions of poverty stricken Americans who will be destitute and homeless in the very near future. This being caused by the advent of the oil shortage that is coming in the very next few years. I have been reading and researching the peak oil problem for over a year and we are getting closer every day to the inevitable. Our government is not doing anything to help in developing alternative sources of energy, as I view it, it is now too late to do anything realistically. Mike, like the Real ID act, someone needs to step up to the plate and take a stand for our country. It cannot be a Republican or Democrat, they are one and the same. I think the only route that we can take is an independent or third party candidate for the 2008 election. I would like some input from the list concerning this matter. I live in Arkansas, so maybe we will have an opportunity to get together some day. A. Griffith MK DuPree [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: This is freakin news to me, D!!!

The new National I.D. Cards were passed last year in Congress, and will take effect in 2008 unless we stop it. It will have an RFI chip in it and the government will be able to track you at all times. Why this applies to us in particular is that if your number is accidently turned off in I.D.

Re: [Biofuel] castorbeans
I have been reading the posts concerning the casterbean and feel that I must give a little input on the subject as I have had some experience in growing the plant a few years ago. The plant grows into a stalk approximately 5-7' tall with a diameter of approximately 4', it will continue to produce seeds continuely for several months. The seeds grow from bunches withapproximately 6-8 seed pods per bunch, with each pod containing 3 seeds encased in a hard shell. As someone else has already pointed out the seeds are very poisonous, even one seed ingested by a child or a small animal can make them very sick. When you extract all of the oil from the seeds, what you have left is one of the most poisonous substances known to man, it is then called ricin, which is very illegal to possess in the US.I would highly suggest that the casterbean be researched very thoroughly before extracting the oil.Mike Redler [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm wondering if such an oil producing plant is a good candidate for the urban fuel farmer.

Some questions and observations if you can help. Do the Castor seeds on the plant all ripen at one time? Have not had mine in long enough to know and using cuttings to speed up quantities for transplanting.Jatropha seeds do not all ripen at one time so picking/harvesting is or can be very labor intensive. How long did it take for your Castor beans to sprout all up? My Castor beans sprouted and grew. I then cut some of the branches and stuck them in compost and dirt mixed pots. Seems that most of the clippings are starting to sprout. Am not sure why but was told that this could not be done. Seems once the beans have sprouted, the clippings seem to grow quicker. 5 days to see the clippings developing new growth. Six days for the Jatropha to sprout from seeds and 17 days to see action or small signs of growth from Jatropha clippings. All good to see up and growing. Need to put more Castor clippings in pots ready for planting out.
