Also, the ill- health caused by many companies can make it impossible for many people to even work (in the US, and in poor countries) <<Oil companies have poured hundreds of billions of > dollars into the economies of countries that had absolutely nothing before > their oil resources were discovered and developed.>>> Nonsense, and made up comfort BS for yourself. You have your head in the sand, and you are sucking up the propoganda: ""We were told by the company that we would have a new school, with books, and electricity and water," a Cameroon village chief reported" http://tinyurl.com/y3zs86 http://tinyurl.com/yhbs52 http://tinyurl.com/yc4h4q OffWorld To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'
