I've never seen a more biased article then the natural gas page. -- Although..It is a circus..Gas Companies are idiots, who get rewarded for acting stupid.....protesters might actually be pawns of the gas companies.(ah...the tails wag the dog..lol)....and they are rabid in their protests, and dangerous. Most articles are using only the facts that they want to support (lol). I've never seen such a circus.

There is good and bad in Natural Gas, but the good far outweighs the bad. Really, we need to decrease consumption, however, it's increasing at about 2% a year....ouch.

For the record....I have an Engineering Degree from a top engineering school, did some nuclear work (but got the heck out of that quickly). I've had great conversations with Exxon and Mobil employees, although, I'm not an employee of either. I'm also a bit shocked that most engineers I've worked with COULD NOT CHANGE THE OIL IN THEIR CAR. Forgive me for being silly, I'd like to see this as a new requirement for an energy company employee. However, I had to work my way through college, and sometimes smart kids of privlege are a bit hard to take.

I am a big fan of Hubert (Hubert's law). I am a big fan of T. Boone Pickens. I am a HUGE fan of SIMPLE natural gas drilling, and i'm ok with fracking. Although, I went to a top notch engineering school, I paid my own way thru with roofing and paving work (common man work), and while I'm proud of that...I guess it leaves me jaded about fellow employees that had some spoon in their mouth. We need to use more Wind Power! It's free! Solar has yet to pay for itself. Diesel/Gasoline....are you serious...we'd be better off burning maple logs. We need to harness the treadmill....lol. When will we consume less?

Oh....fyi: My final average was impressive, however, even more impressive was that my final math minor average was about 99%.

Be nice, be respectful.
