[John Ferrell]

Be careful to consider the real cost of gas.... nearly $1 per gallon is in taxes in North Carolina.

  FWIW, an off topic that interests me in particular is EtOH manufacture from common wood fiber (cellulose) rather than corn (starch brewing). Experimentation and research is continuing in this area. Part of my taxes (and yours) go to fund this important work. It won't happen tomorrow....but when it finally does arrive in about 10 or so years, EtOH price will likely be about 1/3 of what we currently pay per gallon for fuel (gas not model airplane, that is). But THAT waits to be seen

    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.

    What will hurt the price of oil is changing the bushman to anyone new. Can hardly wait

    The wind farms are pretty cool to see....I've witnessed a couple in NORCA.

    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.
