I just have one thing to add. If politicians really want to solve the problem of overusing fossil fuels, they would stop subsidizing the oil industry first. The International Center for Technology Assessment found that had the feds not subsidizing the oil industry both directly or indirectly, gas may have cost as much as 15 bucks in 1998. Here's their press release: http://www.icta.org/press/release.cfm?news_id=12 I actually posted this on my blog regarding the whole subject of government and environmentalism: http://brianfactor.blogspot.com/2008/03/global-unecessary-force.html So I think the politicians either have no brains or are trying to create problems so they can talk about solving them. Anyway... I believe I've met you through speech and debate. I hope I can see you sometime soon. God Bless! >Brian Hey David,
