Not all the animals are dino’s, think billions upon billions of single cell “animals”
The Gulf Oil Leak bothers me, it saddens me, I think at this point we should not be so worried about pointing fingers, we must figure out a way to stop this leak. We can point fingers later.
I think they should gather up shredded timing belts and try putting them in the hole.
Your right, typical corporate b.s. That same mucky muck is now going to have a beach home on the west coast instead of the gulf.
You did very well expressing you sadness and at the same time keeping a "repair and maintiance’ theme to your post, some object to people expressing their feelings about this disaster because the issue “is not related to repair and maintiance”, makes me sad also, good job I say.
Don’t hold your breath,I’ve been waiting for this type of “Utopia” for a long time-meanwhile I continue to pick up beverage containers,fastfood wrappers and other trash people chuck out windows(people are people)-Kevin
Shrimpin’ ain’t easy, but it sure is fun!
…and a picture is worth 1,000 words. Sometimes a political cartoon makes a point better than words ever can.
It’s funny how the Governor of Louisiana used to be against big government, until his contingency plan fails and he needs the feds to come to the rescue!
In all fairness, oldschool, this discussion should have been in the “general discussion” forum. The subheading of this form reads, “Share your [i]car[/i] repair and maintenance questions and answers” (although I added the emphasis).
Not demostrated by prior postings that’s for sure. We have talked about oil and other energy issues endlessly here.
Asking about which refined oil to use in your car isn’t the same thing as talking about a crude oil spill, and you know it.
Are you being deliberately obtuse, or did you accidentally forget to select a forum when you created this discussion?
Too state it simply, “when in Rome do as the Romans do”, many discussions involving many different aspects of the Nations natural resources have appeared in this section of the forum without incident. One that comes to mind was titled “Is Ethanol a scam” you did not take issue with that members decision on where to post. Are you bored and looking for something too complain about…again?
Oldschool, If you think my contributions in this forum are all about being “bored and looking for something too complain about”, maybe I should stop spending my time here. I tried diligently to make meaningful contributions, and to treat you with respect. Now I regret it.
I see progress here, as in something we can agree about, it is you that is trying so hard too make an issue here, when what I have done (posting here when the subject is a condition regarding a natural resource that could cause gas prices to rise) and you know how popular it was too talk about gas prices when they went high. Posting here on this subject is just how it has been done.
Red-Tail, this is if you believe in evolution.
Why not let Tom an Ray have a shot at it .They are probably smarter than the people who are working on this now.
Can anyone explain to me why my idea won’t work? Insert a deflated thick rubber ‘hotdog’ ballon into the pipe and then inflate it with air or hydraulic fluid. They already had a robotic arm go inside the pipe.
What a mess,I suppose the oil dome ,pocket or whatever it is, will eventually run out of crude oil,does anyone have any idea how much is contained in ths area?This enviromental insult is going to be with us for a good while.Maybe they need to try to capture as much of this crude as possible and ship it to the refinery,rather then dispersing it.Dilution is no solution,dont make more mess then we already have.That is one trouble I see with the nuclear industry-they have so much low level waste. Anyway advance the capture techniques,dont create more of a problem then already exists(because cleanup at one site creates more crap to eventually dispose of somewhere else-Kevin
I don’t think it will work because the crude oil is comming out at some 3000psi
Hannity just had a woman on his show with basicaly the same idea, you were not watching and decided to post her idea were you?
