The Daily Skunk

I had an interesting thought tonight.

I was listening to an ad for a candidate on the radio. His career highlight apparently was that he had voted to expand coal, oil and wind energy in our state.

That got me thinking about a comment someone made to me not to long ago when I was telling them about my trip to the badlands and how there was so much oil production going on that I was in disbelief and highly disappointed, because of what it was doing to the area. Their comment was drill, drill, drill… drill it all.

Of course my thoughts were… easy for you to say, one who never makes it out of the city or off the black top. Sucks for people like me, the virtue of the land and the animals who make it home.

Within a minute after the commercial I was thinking about that conversation, the badlands, the Gulf, all the oil under the national parks in the SE US and ANWAR.

It then dawned on me that drilling is exactly what needs to be done - “we” really do need drill it all. There are so many people who never realize the cost, the why and how it really doesn’t matter? Don’t get me wrong I’m a consumer, but that doesn’t mean I’m completely unaware. It also doesn’t mean I’m completely against the use of these resources. I just cannot stand the ignorance of so many people and their complete disregard for everything else involved - especially concerning oil.

Anyway, I’m actually convinced that we need to encourage the drilling (only with extreme environmental consideration of course). The reason being that the closer we get to the last drop is the closer we get to the day when the badlands are free again and places like ANWAR will be completely forgotten to all but those who really care about it.

This is the only thing that will provide the momentum necessary to initiate the use of an energy source that is truly renewable and that will get all of these eye sores out of our wild places.

Imagine the month before the world realizes that we are that close to the last drop - will it be absolute chaos or will the world give a big sigh of relief?

Maybe they’ve put too much lipstick on that pig.

Nanotech and the Physical Manifestation of a Reality

Ok, give me some comments on this people.

I can’t figure out why my posts of this nature haven’t received any comment?

Is it beneath you all? You have nothing to say? I don’t believe that - at least call me stupid or tell me it is bullshit or something.

I find these thoughts incredibly interesting, even if it is hard to believe…

I generally tend to be a conspiracy theorist and I fully believe that we have not even come close to the pinnacle of knowledge, contrary to what many of our present day scientists seem to believe. So, as I said before I find things of this nature very fascinating.

Anyway, read this article and be prepared - the movie “The Island” comes to mind.

Tell me what you think!

You might recall a post I wrote a few months back, titled something to the effect of “Big Bang?”. I can’t recall exactly but I think it was in July.

Anyway, in that article I talked about a few things with the main point being about the fact the big bang theory is starting to loose it’s foothold.

Turns out that there is something out there in space that has been happening that just doesn’t fit within the big bang theory. Actually, it doesn’t fit within any theory that we currently understand.

All that they really know at this point is that this matter, called “dark flow” is moving in a specific direction at about 2 million miles per hour!
