[NSRCA-discussion] Interesting

[Matthew Frederick]

More good points... Get Florida and California to allow oil rigs off their coasts and drill ANWR... The funny thing is that the people who complain most about the price of gas are the ones who won't allow refineries in their areas. For those who aren't tapped into the business... gasoline prices are not driven directly by the price of oil... it is basically a commodity just like orange juice. Its price is influenced by oil, but it really is basically a suppy/demand price. Build more refineries, and you increase the supply. Stop driving so damn many places (and convince a few million of your friends to do the same) thereby reducing demand, and we might actually influence the price, and then convince Al Gore to stop flying coast to coast on his private jet, and things might get a little better (oh, wait, he bought carbon offsets, so that makes him better than us...) Thank goodness Al Gore is not running for an office right now, otherwise I could be considered to be in violation of Civil Service ethics rules since my state has decided to become the most ethical state in the union...

  No oil drilling in the US where there is oil.

  No new refineries in over 30 years.

  Politicians mandate policy that is counter to basic economics (Ethanol).

  What do you expect to happen to the price of oil?

  What do you expect to happen to the cost of transportation of all goods?

  Get ready, it's going to get worse and it's not the oil company's fault!

  We get the government we ask for and elect!

   Anything to reduce our oil consumption is great. 

   

  As far as hurting the price of oil, my heart bleeds.

   

  The price of oil is hurting our economy; many families are having a hard time paying for groceries because of oil. 

   

   Milk, meats, are 30% higher than last year.

   

  Let the oil companies hurt, badly I hope.

  I have never scene a modern wind turbine before, but today a train load came thru ( South Louisiana ) - blades, hubs, housings ?? The blades were singly loaded, LE down, and occupied approx 1 1/2 flatcars in length, 100ft ?

   

  They may be headed to the Gulf. Sure hope it doesen't hurt the price of oil, LOL.
