Occidental and its founder Armand Hammer and the racist Gores go way back.
This is a kick!
Butterfly, meet Occidental, Goron's favorite big oil company!
To: sasquatch
I saw Armand Hammer's crypt the other day in Beverly Hills. Big, impressive, for the founder of Occidental, but none-the-less he is dead. He couldn't take it with him. I don't mind his wealth at all. I just don't like how he put the Gore's into prominent politics. And Al sure does like to bite the hand that fed him! Where would he have been without all that OIL MONEY?
As for the tree sitter, cut it down while she is up in the top of the tree.

Was there some insider trading going on? I remember Rush saying something about this. Please refresh my memory.

US Liberal Ecofreaks are not used to South American justice. No Harvard Communist lawyers representing them pro bono. No endless free TV coverage by a fawning press. No Bill of Rights or US Constitution. Just harsh non-US justice.
Enjoy, Butterfly.

There's probably not a lot of environmentalists in Equador to haul her waste for her like there was during the tree sit.
She will have to do a lot of praying to Mother Earth.

I thought she fell out of a tree and died?

This is not funny! I see a much larger pattern, a conspiracy, in fact. You got this honey in prison in Ecuador and Lori Berenson in prison in Peru! This means that female American terrorists of every stripe are positioning themselves in South American prisons, WEST COAST SOUTH AMERICA, and for what treachery, I wonder. The NYT would hang a headline on a Republican for a lot less concrete factual information! If Jane should go to Chile in the very near future, I'm calling the authorities before this really gets out of hand!!

The little gringos have been arrested, including the old cockatoo who climbs trees,"
Old Cockatoo? LOL!
To: sasquatch
Julie, I'd like you to meet Lori Berenson. Lori, Julia. All right thinking people will applaud Gustavo Noboa for his observations and bird-oriented wit.
Notice how the Accion Ecologia is run by a gringa, too? God forbid that the poor Ecuadorians should benefit from any of their own natural resources.

"The little gringos have been arrested, including the old cockatoo who climbs trees," Ecuadoran President Gustavo Noboa said of Hill Bwahahahaha! Is this for real?! I hope they throw away the key, instead of deporting her.

"That pipeline has ruptured numerous times, spewing about 150,000 barrels of crude petroleum into adjacent jungle watersheds."I have to admit, until they get their act together, jeopardizing the tourism money that they are getting isn't smart.

Olympia, WA - Activists from the Cascadia Defense Network, a grassroots environmental group, have staged a tree sit in opposition to a proposed natural gas pipeline in Thurston County, WA. The group feels that the 49-mile long gas pipeline project will adversely impact endangered species habitat in the Black River National Wildlife Refuge.
Action Alert:
TREE SITTERS OPPOSE GAS PIPELINE COMPANY
June 24, 2002 Olympia, WA - Activists from the Cascadia Defense Network, a grassroots environmental group, have staged a tree sit in opposition to a proposed natural gas pipeline in Thurston County, WA. The group feels that the 49-mile long gas pipeline project will adversely impact endangered species habitat in the Black River National Wildlife Refuge.
The section of the Black River that the pipeline company (Tulsa based Williams Company) wants to tear up contains 1 of only 3 known Oregon Spotted Frog populations found in the Washington State. This pipeline project violates the Endangered Species Act and NEPA. Williams is using power granted to them by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to circumvent existing environmental and safety laws.
On October 10th, 2001, Duke Energy Corporation of North Carolina broke-ground on a $340 million natural gas-fired power plant in Satsop, WA in the shadow of two failed nuclear reactors. They do not yet have a pipeline to provide the fuel to produce the plant's potential of 650 megawatts. However, Williams Co., the company requesting permission to build 49-miles of 20-inch pipeline to serve the plant, already has a 30 year contract to supply Duke with natural gas. The power produced from the gas generators will be sold on the wholesale market, and will be exported. The Duke Energy plant will only create 27 jobs. From the perspective of those who wish to build a new power plant in Western Washington the contracts have been signed - it's a done deal. We disagree
.
There have been recent revelations regarding the role that the nearly bankrupt Williams Company played in the recent California energy crisis. Ironically, FERC, the same Federal Agency that is allowing Williams to disregard existing environmental laws, is at the same time currently investigating the nearly bankrupt Williams Company because Williams manipulated power supplies and inflated prices during the California energy crisis (New York Times, June 12th, 2002). The investigation has put FERC on the verge of revoking the Williams Companys right to sell power on the wholesale market (Houston Chronicle, June 5th, 2002).
This pipeline company is another Enron, and everybody knows it! Both Tulsa based Williams Co. and North Carolina based Duke Energy are currently being sued by the State of California for price manipulation. The Williams Co. is currently being sued by their stockholders, and employees, for Enron-like financial dealings. Duke Energy is being sued by the Dept. Of Justice for Clean Air Act violations.
We cannot let these crooked companies get away with any of this!
Join us in this fight!

I forgot to make note that my last post was about another pipeline in Washington State. It is interesting that pipelines in general are now targets for protest.
