Congratulations on reaching 750 K points and getting your new orange car!

My condolences on the Texas stalker and shill bothering you in 2011. He does that to anyone questioning any Big Oil actions on GB. Thanks for your excellent comments in Recent News!

In regard to your comments on the article about "900 pages of Solyndra records" M<any republicans are interested in getting more information on the BP Oil Spill, and the 700 Billion to Wall Street was approved buy both parties and supported by then current administration, and the Iraqi contractors were investigated and information was supplies to congress. As to what happened in the 80's that's just too long ago to bring up now. So what point are you making, if previous administration had done wrong then should we let all current and future administrations do wrong without making checks on them?

Well gronin, can't speak for everyone else like you ask, but I've owned my current truck for 6.5 years and just did the math. I AVERAGE, 71.66947723440134907251264755481 miles per day. Now that's not exact, cause I rounded up the last decimal point, but it's damn close.

There's quite a few like me out there as well, so are you guaranteeing that "less than 10%" with empirical evidence or just whining yourself. LOL!

Great post Re: $2 gas

Flex-fuel vehicles can run on gas an with 10% ethanol, I started running e-85 an my milage has dropped 3 mpg.

Good post there on the government giving too damned much to business and people out of work! They need to stop the subsidies to Big Oil, ethanol and elsewhere as well as the wealthy and bankers and banks. By-the-way, Happy Easter to ya! Just another bland day to me!

Everything takes money and time though.

"you don't need to have one of those 100 ft towers with the giant blades to generate enough power for your home. most smaller units create enough energy to sell off even" Very true and what I've told people through the years. With solar and wind both, you can nearly or completely eliminate the electric bill. With super insulation of the home and solar hot water and solar heating you definitely can.

The point of the GM Bailout news item is that Bush initiated both the bailout and TARP before Obama took office. "He who knows nothing is closer to the truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors". ~ Thomas Jefferson
