Thats really good!

Thanks. I could have done better but this was what I could throw together in 15 minutes before going to bed.

I have a program called Bryce that I was going to use to make one from scratch but that would have taken a couple of hours. Photoshop sure is handy when time is short.

Let me put my petroleum geologist hat on for just a second. It is an old saying, but a true one: "A nation that runs on energy can't afford to run short." One of the greatest disservices the democrats and a few fellow traveler republicans are doing to this country is to make us more dependent on foreign sources of oil.

Most "alternative" sources of energy wouldn't amount to a hill of beans. Back in the Carter Adminstration, a pile of money was spent on "alternative" energy with not a lot to show for it.

We have, in this country, proven reserves that have been made off limits by legislation and moratorium. And we also have huge petroleum reserves tied up in oil shales and "heavy oil." Before another planet would ever become a source for this planet, we would utilize the existing terrestrial sources.

I think it would be more honest for NASA to say "Yes we found fossils." Which we did.

Nice accent. Although we call it "black gold," "Texas tea."

Wouldn't it be ironic if because of all the environmentalists the rest of the world had to come to us when they ran out?

I can dream, can't I...

Should a retailer be required to sell gasoline to someone with "environmental" license plates?
