A comment

So earlier, I posted here. I thought the material was too good to stay hidden as reply. But also, the last and most powerful link got cut off.

Whether you are Democrat, Republican, or alien this is a powerful speech. It is worth your time to read.

Good luck all, please try not to kill each other over politics.

Thank you. Need all the luck we can get. . .

P.S. Adam and I are in an argument over the cars that use water to help off set gas. Heard anything about them? Any idea what they may or may not do to the water system?

Not in favor of them. I imagine they could contaminate water just as easily as an ordinary car, but they are freaking INEFFICIENT! Also it takes energy to split the water molecules as of yet the energy comes from coal, so for now hydrogen powered cars are merely a shell game transferring carbon from your exhaust pipe to a coal burning power plant. If we relied more on solar power--difficult to do in winter, it might be different, but as for now the only reason you should buy a hybrid or even a hydroelectric car is not because they are electric, but because they are really efficient.

Note: In my previous post I realized I called them both efficient and inefficient--let me explain. They are not efficient electrically you get something like 20 miles on battery, but because they are usually lighter and decently aerodynamic they get pretty good mileage when they are burning gas.
