Will rising gas prices doom Obama? -- SoCalWahoo Sun Feb 19 2012 6:42:53 PM |
I don't understand why you think demand for oil and gas is low. -- KaHOOnah Mon Feb 20 2012 9:18:52 AM |

So we could drive $40K Volts that switch to gas after 27 miles? After 12 hours -- Hoodafan Mon Feb 20 2012 10:29:04 AM |

Again, putting words in my mouth. There's no utility in responding to you. -- KaHOOnah Mon Feb 20 2012 11:23:20 AM |
|
Did you not suggest "investing heavily on alternative energy"? -- Hoodafan Mon Feb 20 2012 11:42:39 AM |
|
I did. And you took that to mean, "everyone driving Volts." -- KaHOOnah Mon Feb 20 2012 11:47:07 AM |
|
So you meant Volts powered at our solar/wind homes? -- Hoodafan Mon Feb 20 2012 12:04:20 PM |
|
Why you don't think wind and solar can be primary source of energy? ** -- JohnHoo? Mon Feb 20 2012 11:03:55 AM |

The technology isn't there yet. There is no bigger supporter of green energy -- Galileo24 Mon Feb 20 2012 11:39:49 AM |

All of what you say is true, but we have to take into account improvements -- Galileo24 Mon Feb 20 2012 12:49:14 PM |

When I say "biofuels" I am primarily talking about algae. -- Galileo24 Mon Feb 20 2012 1:47:50 PM |
|
So, no switchgrass, etc that would occupy land that would otherwise raise crops? ** -- KaHOOnah Mon Feb 20 2012 1:51:41 PM |
|
I'm not a big fan of switchgrass because it is about 20 times -- Galileo24 Mon Feb 20 2012 1:58:38 PM |

Interesting. I'll read up on it. Much obliged ** -- KaHOOnah Mon Feb 20 2012 2:12:13 PM |

Yes. Approval numbers getting ready to crater. ** -- JMHoo Sun Feb 19 2012 8:04:43 PM |

It's Mitt's in free fall. Must suck to support someone the base despises. ** -- Shenhoo Mon Feb 20 2012 9:34:34 AM |

Gas prices are under Bush levels. We remember. -- Shenhoo Sun Feb 19 2012 8:45:04 PM |

In 2008, gas was under $1.90/gallon. ** -- LTHoo Sun Feb 19 2012 8:49:53 PM |

In 2001, the national average price of a gallon of regular gasoline was $1.46. ** -- LTHoo Mon Feb 20 2012 1:38:37 PM |
