[Vwdiesel] (Fwd) Another way to do it... (NVC)

[Area31 Research Facility]

Well I guess we are all DOOMED then aren't we?!

At some point we have to seriously stop this nonsense and look at the big
picture.  Putting obscene profits in the pockets of an elite few (Michael
Moore showed us who some of them are) at the expense of all else and
humankind's very survival with some sort of quality of life is at stake
here!

I'm a little disapointesd but not surprised with the replies that my comment
about becoming self sufficient in agricultural fuel has inspired here.  Not
one of them that complained that the cost of the fuel would not be
competitive has calculated what the savings would be not being in this war
or that!  Wars are obscenely expensive and that is a very real integral part
of the cost of the present fuel supply.  You have to take off your blinders
and look at the big picture here folks, big picture.
