"It is all about money and power though, not the good of the country."

That's exactly right, dear lady.
What puzzles me when this subject is broached is the passing attention to natural gas as if it's not important.
It is, in fact, the only thing that IS important!
We have enough natural gas deposits on the North American continent to be completely independent of foreign sources of energy.
We need to shift the focus from oil to natural gas.
There has been no widespread effort to advertise the advantages of natural gas, and it doesn't have public recognition as THE alternative energy supply.

I guess if the public weren't innundated with pictures on TV of government vehicles blowing up as the result of natural gas explosions, there would be more acceptance.
Sarcasm off.

I'm not a big fan of highly pressurized gas. Explosions aren't the only risk. As I recall, it can be converted to propane and IMO that would be the better fuel for public distribution. I know that you are aware of how much gas Clinton locked up with his EOs.

Good point sir. I think you are right about the fact that the American people are not aware of natural gas as an energy source instead of oil. I know that, because I had no idea myself until I read your post!
I am sure many people do, but all I know is we are so brainwashed into believing we have to have that Arab oil, that we are sitting ducks, and at the mercy of those who wish to take our money, and destroy us at the same time. Doesn't make a lot of sense, but seems to be the case.
