      EDIT: I have no opinion one way or the other. I just think its interesting.
      yep, I like morgan freemans comment in the movie chain reaction...If the world found out about a cheap, very easily mass produced alternative fuel such as hydrogen from water then global oil markets would collapse over night along with the rest of the world

        Most people I talk to have nothing but good things to say about you, but you sure come across as a condescending prick. Do you have an inferiority complex you've attempted to overcome through overachievement? Or were you fondled as a child?

        You and slow99 should date. You both have passive aggressiveness down pat.

          What you're experiencing is when you run out of shit to say because none of what you know makes sense. It's time for you to do some research and regroup with some cohesive intelligent conversation.

            If it's a conspiracy theory, it's a conspiracy theory. We call them that because there is no evidence, just a group of people that wish/want there to be. A guy that chokes to death on a ham sandwich is a guy who choked on a ham sandwich. But a guy poisoned by mysterious oil company g-men is a sensational story that keeps the meek minded compelled. If you're unable to see the baseless sensationalism in these conspiracy theories you'll get lost in them. It is the essence of all conspiracy theories. JFK got shot in the head by an ex-marine with a carcano surplus rifle. Sensationalism - JFK was taken out by a pro-communist mafia black network paid for by LBJ. On 9/11 a group of psychotic muslim terrorists flew several airliners into buildings. Sensationalism - an international behind the scenes black network of right wing government g-men orchestrated the attack to justify a war with the middle east to steal oil. High altitude jet engines cause condensation clouds called contrails, it's simple science. Sensationalism - a government conspiracy to secretly gas the population with mind control poison. I know several of these people and i've discussed it in person with them. All of them have one thing in common - they don't know shit about what they're talking about. It's always the same recipe, just a different topic. Humans desire this urge to turn the mundane and disappointing into the sensational and expected. Ever get those bullshit chain mails in your inbox? Or the wings that make men fly, or the guys who can surf on waves created by dynamite, etc. All of that is the same compelling urge a lot of people feel to create the fantasy that reality denies. The guys who see those faked viral videos and buy ever bit of it are the same kinds of guys that come into threads and claim a guy who choked on a ham sandwich was killed by mysterious oil company g-men.

                I wouldn't say they are all baseless, though many are. I'd say there are enough unanswered questions, to create questioning. I'll use Monsanto as an example. If they will go to the lengths they have gone to, to monopolize the farming industry (all very well documented), why is it do hard to believe that oil companies wouldn't do the same? I just think its incredibly naieve to think it is not possible, and to immediately dismiss it as a crackpot conspiracy theory. Sure, some conspiracy theories are just that... Crackpot theories. But when hundreds of billions of dollars are at stake, I know what lengths I would go to, protecting what I perceive as mine. And I bet you would too.

                    nothing left to say. keystone will possibly create short term relief that is if the north and south portions are built. as it stands only the south will be fast tracked increasing wti by about 20$. the oil will go to whoever pays the most for it and with a tight oil market like what we have it will likely be shipped out. keystone= short term relief but the long term problems still exist.

                      60 year oil production projection is far from short term.

                        Amid rising raw material and transportation costs, our residential roofing manufacturers have announced a price increase for April. Unfortunately, we must pass these increases on and will apply them to all shipments beginning April 16, 2012. We are anticipating an increase range of 10-20% on products and fuel surcharges.

                        Please be aware that manufacturers have already announced another increase for May. We will keep you informed as this situation develops and more information becomes available.

                        Please contact your XXX XXX representative with any questions and thank you for your continued support.

                        Sincerely,

                          What shingle company is that, or is it a roofing supply group? 10-20% is retarded. What are you paying now?

                          I've seen some steel price increases, but no where near 10%, and there was word that prices could actually ease in April. Fuel surcharges were bound to happen.

                            Roofing supply company, and when fuel goes up, everything goes up. I'll be checking with other suppliers to see how much they increase.

                            • I see that this thread has been derailed, but we were paying $1.64/liter for "petrol" in Ireland. That works out to $8.25/gallon, so just be glad you're not paying even half that.
                              When the government pays, the government controls.
