Why some Americans want to join the Biofuel list and how it's changed.

snip
  


 I don't think that's one. There is a lot of wisdom that gets
bantered back and forth in this group, and sometimes I lose track of
who said what. I think you were writing to Todd about the subliminal
nature of media control. I've been listening more for underlying
assumptions in the press coverage, and I'm hearing it all the time now.


  (Blame is better to give than receive . . .)
  



  Most recent desafinado reason for wanting to join the list, or for 
doing biofuels generally, is what Bush said about America's oil 
addiction and freeing the US from its dependence on foreign oil. It 
seems to encapsulate all the previous disconnects about terrorists 
and Arabs and so on.

Quite often when they write to us they tell us things like this: 
"Just like you, we are dedicated to building a better future for our 
country..." That tickles me, though I suppose I am dedicated to that, 
along with the other 191 countries, or at least the people who live 
in them, and the rest of the planet too.
  


 This is where the insulation of living in a very large and heavily
populated nation serves as a disadvantage. Many Americans have never
traveled extensively or lived outside of the United States, and the
further inland I go, the more prevalent this "sheltering from the rest
of the world" becomes. In addition, as we've discussed before, the
myths of US benevolence and goodness are quite pervasive among my
fellow citizens. The degree to which this is true becomes evident when
discussing "why THEY hate us". I've often encountered a zeal that far
surpasses religious fervor when talking about the problems with US
foreign policy.

 Yours is a far more international and inclusive perspective. As an
American, I like to think people can solve their own problems within
their own communities and outsiders should stay OUT, unless these
outsiders have been specifically asked for help, as in the case with a
natural disaster. When this idea gets extended to the national borders
the natural tendency to distinguish between US and THEM leads to this
very strange, childlike polarization we see among some of the people
who've posted here in the past.

 It's sad, isn't it? I mean, the guy can't even spell your name
correctly, yet he thinks he's got the "solution" to "turning away from
the dependence on foreign fossil fuel by developing our own energy
sources". I read through
the site and found NOTHING about conservation and lifestyle
adjustments, nothing about addressing food miles, sustainable
agriculture, gardening and other activities that would REALLY make a
difference. It seems geared toward elementary students who view the
world as if one energy resource can be directly substituted for another.

 This kind of simplistic thinking solves NOTHING. I recall a
conversation with a certain family member who wanted to buy a gasoline
generator during the California electricity crunch, believing this
would "solve" the problem. No amount of rational arguing could
persuade this person to understand that mere substitution doesn't
address the underlying issue that we use WAY more energy than is
necessary.

 We're waiting for Toyota to deliver our new hybrid-electric Camry.
Our family members aren't saying a whole lot about this, but I can tell
by tone of voice and facial _expression_ that they think I'm crazy to buy
an "expensive, untested technology". (It's no more expensive than the
V6 model, and for the "around town" driving that now characterizes our
driving--since I gave up my "career" position and now work out of my
home--the hybrid electric seems most suitable.) The reason nobody says
anything to me about this centers on the fact that there isn't a

You know what you'll find - independence from foreign oil.

fossil fuel by developing our own energy sources. This is a critical 
time to start moving away from our addiction to foreign fossil fuel 
and face up to possible change in our life style if needed.

And so on, yawn. They just want to replace the imported heroin with

Check the word that's being spread that I'm supposed to help with, 
it's stuff like this:

Biodiesel used in its pure form (B100) may require certain engine 
modifications to prevent gelling which would cause performance 
problems and maintenance issues. Some conversions warm the oil 
preventing the oil gelling at colder temperatures. A two fuel tank 
system is used in many of these conversions. The smaller tank holds 
petroleum diesel which is used at engine start up. After the engine 
warms up, the (B100) fuel is then warmed. At this point the driver 
switches to the larger primary tank holding the (B100). Before the 
engine is shut down the driver switches back over to the smaller 
petroleum diesel tank purging the (B100) fuel that may gel in the 
fuel lines when the engine cools.

 listening to NPR this morning and heard a feature involving an
 evangelical minister who has been caught up in the Jack Abramoff
 scandal.  Chris Geeslin, the minister in question, believed one of his
 parishoners was a godly man because he was in the Bible and prayed
 every day.  This associate of Jack Abramoff set up a foundation that
 was intended to promote family values and return America to God as the
 Founders intended, but instead, funneled foreign money to Tom Delay.
 (Big surprise!)

 Return America to God as the Founders intended?
 
 What???
 
 I've a personal copy of the Constitution and NOWHERE in that
 document does it say anything about America being aligned with God.  But
 if we hear that lie enough, we begin to believe it.  The deception is
 subtle and subliminal, but pervasive.
 
 I've read somewhere else that a man cannot serve two masters.
 People like Chris Geeslin are profoundly mislead when they begin
 believing that the US can function as an agent of God, but it's among
 people like him that the support for Mr. Bush persists.  (I attend
 church with a LOT of people whose attitudes are remarkably similar.)
 
 Meanwhile, GM is offering a program for a 20 cent per liter discount
 on gasoline for all Canadian customers who buy a new GM truck or car.
 (The truck is prominently featured in the ad.)  We're buying a hybrid
 electric Camry to replace the thrice-damned GM product that dishonors
 our driveway.  The spin, counterspin and programming that goes on in our
 media really sets us up for corporate control.  We get into debt through
 manufactured dissatisfaction and live a lifestyle determined by utter
 dependency on automobiles, and all the while, our president's corporate

 Biodiesel used in its pure form (B100) may require certain engine

 problems and maintenance issues. Some conversions warm the oil 
 preventing the oil gelling at colder temperatures. A two fuel tank 
 system is used in many of these conversions. The smaller tank holds 
 petroleum diesel which is used at engine start up. After the engine 
 warms up, the (B100) fuel is then warmed. At this point the driver 
 switches to the larger primary tank holding the (B100). Before the

Hi John;

People complain to me, but lately I've been telling them to shut
up.  I've been warning everyone around me for YEARS that we were heading
down the path toward BIG trouble.  Now it's here and I'm in no mood to
listen to their bickering.  What REALLY irritates me right now, is that
many of those who are lamenting the loudest are the same group that put
Mr. Bush and his cabal in power.  If you really want to know who those
29% are, listen to the ones complaining about high gas prices and
blaming their problems on the Arabs.  I'd lay odds that among that group
you will find the president's most ardent supporters.



I'd be surprised if you weren't right. With a big overlap with the 
religious far-right.

Most recent desafinado reason for wanting to join the list, or for 
doing biofuels generally, is what Bush said about America's oil 
addiction and freeing the US from its dependence on foreign oil. It 
seems to encapsulate all the previous disconnects about terrorists 
and Arabs and so on.

Quite often when they write to us they tell us things like this: 
Just like you, we are dedicated to building a better future for our 
country... That tickles me, though I suppose I am dedicated to that, 
along with the other 191 countries, or at least the people who live 
in them, and the rest of the planet too.

They're not too good at getting things right. Look at this one, just received:

Beyond Fossil Fuel is a site dedicated to spreading the word about 
alternative fuels/energy such as ethanol, biodiesel, hydrogen and 
more.  We will be following all changes in the landscape of fuel and 
energy and try to provide the best resources for those looking to 
learn more.

Is there anyway you could link to our site or help announce

building a better future for our country and spreading the word is a 
great place to start.

Thank you,

You know what you'll find - independence from foreign oil.

It says: We must start turning away from the dependence on foreign 
fossil fuel by developing our own energy sources. This is a critical 
time to start moving away from our addiction to foreign fossil fuel 
and face up to possible change in our life style if needed.

And so on, yawn. They just want to replace the imported heroin with

Do people in your area think that the US people support President Bush?
Do those people realize that President Bush has an approval rating of 29%?


I'm from Boston, Massachusetts, and darn it, I 
don't think I know anyone who would admit to 
voting for Bush in 2004 or who, when asked, 
would say that they would vote for Bush right now.

Just wondering,

What has me confused is just exactly who are these 29% and where are they 
hiding?


You are right about no one admitting to voting for him in the last election 
and no one I've ever come across thinks he's anything but some bum.


I'm fairly active at a Y with a wide range of age groups and interests.

This Y has a great swimming pool open from 6:45 AM until closing at 9 PM 
with no restricting hours .. a wonderful work out room .. free baby sitting 
for members .. activities for children and adults.


I'm hearing comments from young college ages, young families with and 
children, young professionals, small business owners, retires both on 
restricted budgets and the fairly wealthy .. anytime Bush has a speech on 
TV, the exercise room almost as a single vote wants the channel changed ..


He is not only not liked .. he is not respected.

There's an awful lot of support for him among people I know.  They

subliminal messages that pervade our media.

Keith pointed this out in another thread.  As an example, I was 
listening to NPR this morning and heard a feature involving an 
evangelical minister who has been caught up in the Jack Abramoff 
scandal.  Chris Geeslin, the minister in question, believed one of his 
parishoners was a godly man because he was in the Bible and prayed 
every day.  This associate of Jack Abramoff set up a foundation that 
was intended to promote family values and return America to God as the 
Founders intended, but instead, funneled foreign money to Tom Delay.

I've a personal copy of the Constitution and NOWHERE in that

if we hear that lie enough, we begin to believe it.  The deception is 
subtle and subliminal, but pervasive.

I've read somewhere else that a man cannot serve two masters.  
People like Chris Geeslin are profoundly mislead when they begin 
believing that the US can function as an agent of God, but it's among 
people like him that the support for Mr. Bush persists.  (I attend 
church with a LOT of people whose attitudes are remarkably similar.)

Meanwhile, GM is offering a program for a 20 cent per liter discount 
on gasoline for all Canadian customers who buy a new GM truck or car.  
(The truck is prominently featured in the ad.)  We're buying a hybrid 
electric Camry to replace the thrice-damned GM product that dishonors 
our driveway.  The spin, counterspin and programming that goes on in our 
media really sets us up for corporate control.  We get into debt through 
manufactured dissatisfaction and live a lifestyle determined by utter 
dependency on automobiles, and all the while, our president's corporate 
friends are heaping on the profits.

Ah, well, if you look back far enough *I'm* really a guest here in the US!

As a Québecois, albeit un des maudits anglais (currently residing in

Now to start digging into the Canadian Kyoto debacle of last week and 
see where our Made in U.S.A. climate change policy is headed.  Nuts! 
And Harper's probably still better for Canada than the previous Liberal 
administrations.  Talk about setting the bar low.  Double nuts!

One of the problems with transparency in government is what you get to see.

Question for all of you who do not live in the United States:

I'm from Boston, Massachusetts, and darn it, I

Hi Robert

Re: [Biofuel] Torture and/or Nuking Iran -- was Re: Poll in favor of Nuk

Why some Americans want to join the Biofuel list and how it's changed.

snip

People complain to me, but lately I've been telling them to shut
up.  I've been warning everyone around me for YEARS that we were heading
down the path toward BIG trouble.  Now it's here and I'm in no mood to
listen to their bickering.  What REALLY irritates me right now, is that
many of those who are lamenting the loudest are the same group that put
Mr. Bush and his cabal in power.  If you really want to know who those
29% are, listen to the ones complaining about high gas prices and
blaming their problems on the Arabs.  I'd lay odds that among that group
you will find the president's most ardent supporters.

I'd be surprised if you weren't right. With a big overlap with the 
religious far-right.

Most recent desafinado reason for wanting to join the list, or for 
doing biofuels generally, is what Bush said about America's oil 
addiction and freeing the US from its dependence on foreign oil. It 
seems to encapsulate all the previous disconnects about terrorists 
and Arabs and so on.

Quite often when they write to us they tell us things like this: 
Just like you, we are dedicated to building a better future for our 
country... That tickles me, though I suppose I am dedicated to that, 
along with the other 191 countries, or at least the people who live 
in them, and the rest of the planet too.

They're not too good at getting things right. Look at this one, just received:

Hello Kieth and Midori,

I am contacting you to ask you to help us spread the word about 
alternative fuels.  My name is David Bernstein and I am the 
technical advisor for http://www.beyondfossilfuel.com/. We have 
just launched our new site and are looking for some industry leading 
sites to help announce its launch.

Beyond Fossil Fuel is a site dedicated to spreading the word about 
alternative fuels/energy such as ethanol, biodiesel, hydrogen and 
more.  We will be following all changes in the landscape of fuel and 
energy and try to provide the best resources for those looking to 
learn more.

Is there anyway you could link to our site or help announce 
beyondfossilfuel.com's launch? Just like you, we are dedicated to 
building a better future for our country and spreading the word is a 
great place to start.

Thank you,
David Bernstein
Technical Advisor
http://www.beyondfossilfuel.com/

You know what you'll find - independence from foreign oil.

It says: We must start turning away from the dependence on foreign 
fossil fuel by developing our own energy sources. This is a critical 
time to start moving away from our addiction to foreign fossil fuel 
and face up to possible change in our life style if needed.

And so on, yawn. They just want to replace the imported heroin with 
homegrown so they can go on guzzling forever, change in our life 
style my elbow.

Check the word that's being spread that I'm supposed to help with, 
it's stuff like this:

Biodiesel used in its pure form (B100) may require certain engine 
modifications to prevent gelling which would cause performance 
problems and maintenance issues. Some conversions warm the oil 
preventing the oil gelling at colder temperatures. A two fuel tank 
system is used in many of these conversions. The smaller tank holds 
petroleum diesel which is used at engine start up. After the engine 
warms up, the (B100) fuel is then warmed. At this point the driver 
switches to the larger primary tank holding the (B100). Before the 
engine is shut down the driver switches back over to the smaller 
petroleum diesel tank purging the (B100) fuel that may gel in the 
fuel lines when the engine cools.

ROFL!!!

How would I go about helping him? Start here?

Not very unusual. I suppose that's how they go about doing Bush and 
God and Arabs and so on too, it's the missing 29%, they're still 
missing even when you find them. They probably even believe Bush has 
some intention of wheening the US off foreign oil. They're not part 
of the answer, they're part of the problem.

What do you think I should tell the Technical Advisor? Shut up? :-)

Probably I shouldn't tell him anything, the usual experience is that 
there's no reply that won't make him angry. If I don't reply he'll 
probably just conclude we're obviously not patriots and we haven't 
got any manners either so we're no loss.

I could just send him that crazed B100 paragraph and tell him he's 
confusing two different fuels and then point him at JtF where it 
explains the difference, but that doesn't work either, as we saw last 
week. Some people just don't get good information no matter what, and 
I think it applies to these folks and the missing 29%. They can't 
think straight.

I think it's because many of them aren't getting their
