I think CSC, Anti-Fossil, Guag, and all our readers have good points. And because we readers have common interests and sensibilities it is good to have a debate.
Each country and more importantly each individual possess a value in our world. CSC-Propulsion has probably seen more of the ugly things of the world than me and understand the points. And Anti-Fossil understands the benefits of maintaining balance. Together we can make change and I think that is probably why Journey to Forever website was formed (thank you Keith and Midori). As JTF readers, Let us set some goals this New Year of doing at least a few great things. My goals for you all are: 1) To finalize and summarize the costs and approach to buying an orphan vacated U.S. gas station and converting it into a clean fuel/biodiesel gas station, including incentives from DOE, commercial credit, maybe a co-op, and other various factors. 2) I plan to "get a real job" to supplement my consulting in energy efficnecy and renewables in order to assist people like you readers and people of similar sensibilitities 3) Gain a better understanding of how I can use locally made regional goods and services and do a better job of recycling, and offering homegrown goods and services to help my immediate neighbors. 4) I will not be as "afraid and fearful" in life and write my congressman and get involved for local and regional change. --- Anti-Fossil <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hey cs, > > Why so angry?
