Fuel Sources besides oil?? I remember the long lines at the pump in the 70"s when OPEC cut our supply. And gas skyrocketed from something like 60 cents to 70 cents per gallon (don't remember exactly). There was an outcry for alternatives other than petrochemical, and there were a number offered. None really succeeded in freeing us, even slightly, from the MiddleEast tit. Here we are 30+ years later, and we are still sucking, more every day, and no end in sight, and not much effort otherwise. I hate it, hate it. That ain't the way we got to where we are, that is, kicked back with a brew on the deck, wondering what the Bulldogs are gonna' do this year, not worrying that there is a storm brewing right in your face....... Your thoughts please??
