Whatever happened to all the solar energy we were promised would exist by now (at least my generation) during grade/middle school? Rhetorical question. I know the answer. Just frustrated that it seems I have to write my representatives at least once per week about potential environmental disasters such as this proposal. Sigh.

katy,

A great deal of “old” blueblood money is (and has been) invested in the oil industry…

…during the Clinton years the investment trend tended toward newer technology and consequently OIL stocks tanked…

…silicon valley boomed and so did the investment portfolios of the nouveau riche tech barons (and their offerings)…

…as SOON as Bushiva (and L’il Dick) took office Bushiva (with Alan Greenspan’s help)…

…talked the stock market down and as a result high tech stocks tanked…

…and oil stocks rebounded in a big way…

…then came 9/11, the WAR and the rest is HIS (their-big oil’s) story…
