[biofuels-biz] RE: WVO/SVO Biodiesel in WA state
Graham, This is an interesting viewpoint. I'm curious whether you know of any situations with state legislatures where WVO/SVO did in fact drag down biodiesel legislation. It seems to me that the concerns you raise are more likely to emerge when dealing with fleet managers and car owners. Why would it not be simple to craft biofuels legislation that addresses fuels to be burned in diesel engines? Why not just use language that supports any bio-based fuel for diesels? I don't know if, at least in Washington, legislators are all that concerned about OEM requirements and other technical details. The stuff is okayed by EPA; that's good enough. I'd bet a dime to a dollar that, given the budget crisis and the problems with school bus emissions, the real issues are going to be revenues and pollution. Facing a whopping revenue shortfall, legislators will be wary of granting tax breaks to industries. The easy counter-argument is that such breaks will not produce lower revenues, as no industry currently exists, but rather will promote the growth of new businesses around biodiesel that will provide jobs and revenues. Of course, I don't have any lobbying experience, so I could be off base. But I just don't see how the message of biofuels for diesels is less difficult to communicate than that of biodiesel for diesels. regards, thor - Message: 5 Date: Mon, 17 Feb 2003 13:17:43 -0500 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: WVO/SVO Biodiesel in WA state Hi Ed, I have to disagree with your recommendation that biofuel advocates should try to get the WA legislature to consider SVO and WVO at the same time as biodiesel. I completely agree that the same priciples support the inclusion of both. BUT, we need to pursue goals that we can attain and appreciate that confusion is a major risk here and a tool that will be used against us. We need to have the crystal clear message that biodiesel(as B20) runs in diesel engines with no need for modification and with the (somewhat grudging) support of the OEM's. Putting SVO and WVO into the mix will confuse people and politicians regarding what biodiesel is and how it can be used and make passage substantially less likely. Biodiesel can lead the way for other biofuels but biodiesel will be less likely to get anywhere if it has to pull the weight of SVO and WVO. I hope that you will seriously consider whether this approach will yield the best long-term results. Best, Graham = Grants Manager Stillaguamish Tribe Of Indians 3439 Stoluckquamish Lane P.O.

Re: [biofuel] Digest Number 1376
Todd S. Civil Disobedience is a right guaranteed to all US citizens.It is one of the freedoms that many men and women have died for in the last 200+ years. Another right or freedom that we enjoy as Americans is the right to go about our business, do our job, support our family, etc. as long as we do not interfere with another citizens rights. Perhaps you are forgetting just exactly what Civil Disobedience is?The US Constitution (and the judicial systems interpretation) gives you plenty of freedom to express your opinions in many different ways on almost any subject you choose as long as you don't break the law in the process. If you do something illegal then you have infringed on another's right to freedom and it is no longer CIVIL Disobedience. It is plain to see that you, and others, seem to think that because you don't care to wait for the civilized process to work you feel that gives you the right to break the law!! You are entitled to work within the legal system to change the law if you so choose. You are NOT entitled to simply ignore (break) the law because you don't agree with it and don't want to take the time and make the effort to change it. It is also plain to see that you, and others, have a great distrust for the US legal system and the US government. I am also concerned about our government and legal system.

Even though I share your disgust for SOME of the actions taken by our government and legal system I hold in high regard our democratic system.

More Hog Snozzle!!! was Re: [biofuel] Digest Number 1376
And just specifically what is it Phil that makes you think that perhaps [I] am forgetting just exactly what Civil Disobedience is? Quite the contrary. What is actually quite plain to see is that you are not exactly familiar with the term, nor how or why it is implemented. No different than Greg, civil disobedience is okay, as long as no one is disobedient. You state right up front that it is a right guaranteed to all US citizens. (Not quite sure where you get that chapter and verse, but it is a moral and principle right of every person on the planet.)Yet you continue with declaration that enacting that right is wrong, as well as the blatant overly general implication that anyone who is civilly disobedient is pretty well akin to an anarchist taking up molotovs and rocks. Again, no different than Greg, you relay several of the exact same disconnects, generalities, vagueries and pretty much flat out distortions as a result of your all encompassing blanket approach. Yessireee!!! If Joe Donut has to waste the first breath on someone being civily disobedient, we oughta' lock 'em up for contributin' to terrorism!!! Well Rosa Parks, save a seat for me on your side of the paddy wagon. Hell, between civilly disobedient supporters of terrorism, commies, pinkos and fags, there ain't no room for honest, upstandin white folks anymore.

[biofuel] w32.opaserve.worm
Keith and all list members: Last week a virus slipped through and took up residence on my primary drive. It was contracted by the simple act of hitting a contact link on an internet service provider's web site and was first noted (among a few other things) by the continual upload of information while connected to the internet, even though no net related tasks were being performed. As well, due to the worm's changes in the registry, conflicts began to arise with software and hardware applications. This worm permits unauthorized access to a person's computer and/or network through a flaw in MS password protection and affects Win 95, 98, 98SE and/or ME operating systems. In the past week I've noticed one or two peculiar messages that came through Biofuel (one was E-bay related requesting to be taken off of the mailing list) that might indicate that this virus may have jumped a few people who run these MS systems. In any event, should anyone find that they have this virus, the specifics, the removal tool and the instructions for the tool can be found at http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.opaserv.worm.html There is also a MS patch that has to be installed prior to running the removal tool. Information about it can be found at the same Symantec link above and the patch can be located via this link http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS00-072.asp More information can be found at http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.opaserv.g.worm.html http://www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/virusencyclo/default5.asp?VName=WORM_OPASERV.GVSect=T http://www.fortinet.com/Vir-Desc/W32/opaserv-g.htm with references to several other files applicable to the virus There are 4 or 5 files that are specifically identifiable with this worm and/or one of its several variants, one of the primaries being MARCO!.SCR However, one or two of the affected files are requisite for Windoze operations, even though they have been overwritten by the virus and corrupted. SHOULD ANY OF THE FILES REFERRED TO IN THE HOT LINKS ABOVE BE FOUND, THEY SHOULD NOT (THAT'S SHOULD NOT!) BE REMOVED INDIVIDUALLY THEY SHOULD ONLY BE REMOVED WITH A VIRUS TOOL SUCH AS THE SYMANTEC LINK ABOVE!!! Also, the particular removal tool above does not necessarily remove all of the participatory files. The end result of the first two applications of the tool yielded 4 deleted files, 3 viral processes terminated, 2 registry entries fixed. Yet a few of the files related to the virus are still present, apparently in a disabled condition on the root drive. No matter here I suppose (glibly spoken) as the drive is soon to be reformatted. But others who might suffer through this process may need to be aware of the residual files and care to search further as to the appropriate method of their removal, or if they should be removed. Apologies should anyone have been affected by this. The story behind it is a lot more gruesome than any could possibly imaginewell all but a few people anyway.

[biofuel] From my Pal
Just so you recognize there are counter views in the US I thought you might like the following. By US Senator Robert Byrd Senate Floor Speech Wednesday, February 12, 2003 To contemplate war is to think about the most horrible of human experiences. On this February day, as this nation stands at the brink of battle, every American on some level must be contemplating the horrors of war. Yet, this Chamber is, for the most part, silent -- ominously, dreadfully silent. There is no debate, no discussion, no attempt to lay out for the nation the pros and cons of this particular war.Ê There is nothing. We stand passively mute in the United States Senate, paralyzed by our own uncertainty, seemingly stunned by the sheer turmoil of events.Ê Only on the editorial pages of our newspapers is there much substantive discussion of the prudence or imprudence of engaging in this particular war. And this is no small conflagration we contemplate. This is no simple attempt to defang a villain. No. This coming battle, if it materializes, represents a turning point in U.S. foreign policy and possibly a turning point in the recent history of the world. This nation is about to embark upon the first test of a revolutionary doctrine applied in an extraordinary way at an unfortunate time. The doctrine of preemption -- the idea that the United States or any other nation can legitimately attack a nation that is not imminently threatening but may be threatening in the future -- is a radical new twist on the traditional idea of self-defense. It appears to be in contravention of international law and the UN Charter. And it is being tested at a time of world-wide terrorism, making many countries around the globe wonder if they will soon be on our -- or some other nation's -- hit list. High level Administration figures recently refused to take nuclear weapons off of the table when discussing a possible attack against Iraq. What could be more destabilizing and unwise than this type of uncertainty, particularly in a world where globalism has tied the vital economic and security interests of many nations so closely together? There are huge cracks emerging in our time-honored alliances, and U.S. intentions are suddenly subject to damaging worldwide speculation. Anti-Americanism based on mistrust, misinformation, suspicion, and alarming rhetoric from U.S. leaders is fracturing the once solid alliance against global terrorism which existed after September 11. Here at home, people are warned of imminent terrorist attacks with little guidance as to when or where such attacks might occur. Family members are being called to active military duty, with no idea of the duration of their stay or what horrors they may face. Communities are being left with less than adequate police and fire protection. Other essential services are also short-staffed. The mood of the nation is grim. The economy is stumbling. Fuel prices are rising and may soon spike higher. This Administration, now in power for a little over two years, must be judged on its record. I believe that that record is dismal. In that scant two years, this Administration has squandered a large projected surplus of some $5.6 trillion over the next decade and taken us to projected deficits as far as the eye can see. This administration's domestic policy has put many of our states in dire financial condition, under funding scores of essential programs for our people. This Administration has fostered policies which have slowed economic growth. This Administration has ignored urgent matters such as the crisis in health care for our elderly. This Administration has been slow to provide adequate funding for homeland security. This Administration has been reluctant to better protect our long and porous borders. In foreign policy, this Administration has failed to find Osama bin Laden. In fact, just yesterday we heard from him again marshaling his forces and urging them to kill. This Administration has split traditional alliances, possibly crippling, for all time, International order-keeping entities like the United Nations and NATO. This Administration has called into question the traditional worldwide perception of the United States as well- intentioned, peacekeeper. This Administration has turned the patient art of diplomacy into threats, labeling, and name calling of the sort that reflects quite poorly on the intelligence and sensitivity of our leaders, and which will have consequences for years to come. Calling heads of state pygmies, labeling whole countries as evil, denigrating powerful European allies as irrelevant -- these types of crude insensitivities can do our great nation no good.Ê We may have massive military might, but we cannot fight a global war on terrorism alone. We need the cooperation and friendship of our time-honored allies as well as the newer found friends whom we can attract with our wealth. Our awesome military
Re: [biofuel] Troubled Times Slow Charge
Hi Kris Please don't get me wrong - I don't mind committing the unforgiveable and saying it's probably just a matter of time till somebody solves the free energy puzzle one way or another. I've said something like that here before a couple of times, despite the ominous silence that ensued. On the other hand, most of the claims we've seen merit more scepticism than anything else, and that seems to have been well-founded so far, none of them has come to anything. (Yet.) I'm also somewhat sceptical of imminent cataclysmic events as a reason for getting into appropriate technology - cataclysms or no, it doesn't need such reasons, it stands on its own well enough, whether in 3rd World countries or developed nations. I don't take a narrow view of what's on topic when it comes to biofuels, nor that is should necessarily be ready-for-use technology that's discussed. That's Hakan's focus for instance at his excellent website, and indeed ours at Journey to Forever, for obvious reasons. But here we can be much more wide-ranging. But we can really do without stuff like Zeta, definitely without Dennis Lee, and without magnets. Just as long as you're aware of that. Anfd you are. So no problem. Still worth saying soi for others here who might not be aware of it though. regards Keith Well Keith, I got a whole diferent view of that web site. I just spent a couple of hours there but, I didn't click on any of the Zeta info, because I read that stuff years ago. What I saw was a group of young guys, probably a lot like you and me at that age, who are not running around screaming that the sky is falling but, are trying to put their thinking caps on now, so they will have accumulated the knowledge necessary to rebuild after a cataclysmic event. Granted these guys are associating with the scam artists at Zeta but, I didn't see anything really wrong with their message except that Planet X is do to visit in the next 75 days or so. I'm not sure why I spend 2 or 3 hours almost everyday reading about all kinds of strange subjects but, something tells me to keep searching for any info that may be of help when the shit hits the fan. I'm not sure if the boogie man is economic collapse, WWIII, NWO, a pole shift, major earthquakes, or whatever but, I am convinced that it is time to accumlate as much knowledge as possible, so my kids have as good a chance at a decent life as I did. I admit to spending too much time looking at free energy sites but, I am convinced that one day humans will overcome their lack of a good clean fuel that will take them to the stars, and that means over unity. I don't see free energy as much different than folks felt about Thomas Edison or the Wright Bros., before they proved their theories were fact. And some day real soon all of the nay sayers will change their tune and will never again be so unwilling to try and give someone the benefit of the doubt on controversial subjects. I know that people like Dennis Lee have done untold harm with their scams but, I'm confident that most of these folks are trying to whip ass on the power brokers just like the rest of us. And I know that there have always been doomsayers predicting the end of civilization but, there have never been so many warning signs of civic collapse as we have had lately. kris --- Keith Addison [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: krisbook wrote: This link will take you to a site that tells you how to charge a large deep cycle battery every two or three days without the use of a generator, solar panel, or even a hand crank.

RE: [biofuel] good oil crops for England
The reasons are many: The markets are probably not in place The processing is not in place Farmers have the equipment and knowledge to grow and harvest corn, wheat soya etc. They will not commit their large farms to a crop which they do not know how to grow, harvest and sell. The claims for yields are probably based on research with trial plots and the yields from growing them in real conditions with pests and diseases that will get bigger as the crops get bigger are much lower. I'll take the example of hemp grown in the UK - it is a wonder crop, amazing yield, needs little fertiliser and chemicals as it grows so fast. Amazing tough fibre, seed can be used for biodiesel etc. But how much is grown. Around 2500 ha. even with a subsidy of around £500/ha. Why - because it is a bastard to harvest and the yields are much lower than the researchers quote, and hence the returns are lower. There is a small demand for it but a UK company has been working very hard for years to promote the crop, and their main market was/is the hurds used for horse bedding. What are chokeberries.

RE: [biofuel] Behind the Great Divide
Keith: Interesting Article. It is hard to believe the line the liberal U.S. media are strikingly conservative - and in this case hawkish.. The US news media is so liberal, that it is hard to think of them in any other way. I am not swayed over, but my perspective has changed a little. Harley -Original Message- From: Keith Addison [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 18, 2003 11:41 AM To: biofuel@yahoogroups.com Subject: [biofuel] Behind the Great Divide A bit weak, especially for Krugman... but it's a start, maybe about the maximum-sized bite the average cable-viewer could chew on without choking. Keith http://www.nytimes.com/2003/02/18/opinion/18KRUG.html Behind the Great Divide By PAUL KRUGMAN There has been much speculation why Europe and the U.S. are suddenly at such odds. Is it about culture? About history? But I haven't seen much discussion of an obvious point: We have different views partly because we see different news. Let's back up. Many Americans now blame France for the chill in U.S.-European relations. There is even talk of boycotting French products. But France's attitude isn't exceptional. Last Saturday's huge demonstrations confirmed polls that show deep distrust of the Bush administration and skepticism about an Iraq war in all major European nations, whatever position their governments may take. In fact, the biggest demonstrations were in countries whose governments are supporting the Bush administration. There were big demonstrations in America too. But distrust of the U.S. overseas has reached such a level, even among our British allies, that a recent British poll ranked the U.S. as the world's most dangerous nation - ahead of North Korea and Iraq. So why don't other countries see the world the way we do? News coverage is a large part of the answer. Eric Alterman's new book, What Liberal Media? doesn't stress international comparisons, but the difference between the news reports Americans and Europeans see is a stark demonstration of his point. At least compared with their foreign counterparts, the liberal U.S. media are strikingly conservative - and in this case hawkish. I'm not mainly talking about the print media. There are differences, but the major national newspapers in the U.S. and the U.K. at least seem to be describing the same reality. Most people, though, get their news from TV - and there the difference is immense. The coverage of Saturday's antiwar rallies was a reminder of the extent to which U.S. cable news, in particular, seems to be reporting about a different planet than the one covered by foreign media. What would someone watching cable news have seen? On Saturday, news anchors on Fox described the demonstrators in New York as the usual protesters or serial protesters. CNN wasn't quite so dismissive, but on Sunday morning the headline on the network's Web site read Antiwar rallies delight Iraq, and the accompanying picture showed marchers in Baghdad, not London or New York. This wasn't at all the way the rest of the world's media reported Saturday's events, but it wasn't out of character. For months both major U.S. cable news networks have acted as if the decision to invade Iraq has already been made, and have in effect seen it as their job to prepare the American public for the coming war. So it's not surprising that the target audience is a bit blurry about the distinction between the Iraqi regime and Al Qaeda. Surveys show that a majority of Americans think that some or all of the Sept. 11 hijackers were Iraqi, while many believe that Saddam Hussein was involved in Sept. 11, a claim even the Bush administration has never made. And since many Americans think that the need for a war against Saddam is obvious, they think that Europeans who won't go along are cowards. Europeans, who don't see the same things on TV, are far more inclined to wonder why Iraq - rather than North Korea, or for that matter Al Qaeda - has become the focus of U.S. policy. That's why so many of them question American motives, suspecting that it's all about oil or that the administration is simply picking on a convenient enemy it knows it can defeat. They don't see opposition to an Iraq war as cowardice; they see it as courage, a matter of standing up to the bullying Bush administration. There are two possible explanations for the great trans-Atlantic media divide. One is that European media have a pervasive anti-American bias that leads them to distort the news, even in countries like the U.K. where the leaders of both major parties are pro-Bush and support an attack on Iraq. The other is that some U.S. media outlets - operating in an environment in which anyone who questions the administration's foreign policy is accused of being unpatriotic - have taken it as their assignment to sell the

Chokecherries are a shrub. Takes a few years before they would bear fruit. Also I don't know any nursery that sells them. They grow wild in ravines.

On the one hand you issue terse condemnation against dirt worshipin', bunny lovin' tree huggers and circumstances of which you are largely unaware, yet on the other hand you state that it may be necessary for you to conduct an act of civil disobedience in the future as well - not okay with Greg on the one hand but okay with Greg if it's his own hand. I never said that. I have never, to my knowlage, ever said that an act of civil disobedience is never an option. Where by your previous and present expressions you have equated civil disobedience with terrorism, you now qualify civil disobedience as occasionally being acceptable, even when in the radical extreme such as John Brown. I never said that John Brown's actions were acceptable to me. While his motives were good, his actions were not. The extremisms expressed in your views are a bit incongruent. Not at all. By your standards, any activist who does not have legal standing in a judicial matter is one who has jumped on the bandwagon - an activity that you again are disdainful of. I never said that, again you pervert, what was said, and twist it for your own ends. What I said was, Far to many times people jump on the civil disobedience band wagon, just to be there with out having done any other work, to resolve the issue. I try and clarify it for you. Many times people sit around doing nothing about a problem, they just sit there and get angry about things that are going on. They sit there, and sit there not doing a thing, then they explode into civil disobedience. They didn't seek recourse by legal means, they did nothing untill, they started breaking the law and / or civil code. This is were I have a problem with it. By your standards, Thoreau should have filed suit against the poll tax and waited years for a ruling, even when the tax was but a vehicle of his protest, not specifically what he was protesting. Did he attempt any other recourse before not paying the tax? Attempting to establish a standard where people who haven't done the work should have no right to their activism is not only preposterous but once again a highly opinionated and overly presumptive judgement. O.k. I'l put it in in different words. Civil disobedience, should always be the last thing to do, not the first. Only a select few have the right to enact civil disobedience? And would it be you who is just the individual capable of determining exactly who is and who is not acceptable to participate in such a manner - on any matter? Again I will say it. It is my belief that anyone that engages in civil disobedience and law breaking, before they ( as indivduals ) seak other means of resolving the issue, should get what they recieve, as far as the courts are concerned. If they end up injured by police ( percieved to be on purpose ) in the process, then it is up to the courts to deciede if it was abuse or not. Two things that I find lacking in your expressions: 1) a lack of understanding of critical mass, which seldom to never happens in the nice, tidy and ever so orderly fashion that you would prefer and 2) a largely void understanding of the disparity between our judicial process, both its time lines and its metering of justice, and the natural world that you reside in. I know about critical mass, and about how slow the judicial process is, but, it does not in any way shape or form, remove indivdual responsability to seek lawful and legal means of recourse first. Ecosystems and human beings don't just get up out of their chair beyond the dais and casually resume their previous existence after a judge makes a pronouncement, least of all if they've been devastated, destroyed or compromised in advance of or throughout the same legal process. It's a re-growing process, that everyone and everything undergoes through from setbacks. And while you may expect that the rest of the world should simply wait politely and quietly for the pen of a judge, legislator or policy chief to sway in one direction or another, your expectations are exaggerated and unrealistic in light of the inequities, improprieties, injustices and other indiscriminate spoilage that may be effected both prior to and after that same pen having been taken up. I don't expect people to stand still, for they can be doing other legal things, in the mean time. Perhaps most telling of all is your following perception. If any activists, by breaking the law, draw law enforcement away from anti-terrorist activities, then yes indeed, they are supporting terrorism. They may not be directly supporting terrorism, but, they are supporting it none the less. So inequity and injustice should only be met with a pen, wielded by appointed judges - as anything beyond that which draws

You're right Greg. Technically you never said specifically that. You only implied that it's the wrong option unless of course it has passed through a rationalization process acceptable by your standards, and then absolutely declared that people who do conduct acts of civil disobedience are tantamount to if not supporting terrorism if they draw one dram of energy away from the war on terrorism. Gee! I wonder what they were before the war on terrorism or before you classified them as supporters of terrorism? Protesters? Activists? Concerned mothers and fathers, sons and daughters?

If so, the right to peacefully assemble is revoked, erego illegal, until such time as the applicant can overcome the economic barrier of the judical appeals process. Should the date and time of the initial permit application expire before all legal remedies have been exhausted, the applicant must make new application for a permit, inclusive of all fees, and must once again follow all prescribed permit processes and circle dances.)

Re: [biofuel] Re: Chokecherries
The appearance is that chokecherries can yield ~2.14 times the oil per hectare as does rapeseed. Presuming rapeseed oil yields of ~100 gallons per acre (cold pressed or solvent extracted?), chokecherries would yield ~214 gallons of oil per acre. There would also be the fermentable (and then feed) co-products of the berry, giving yield to ethanol production on top of the oil production. (The sources connected to the links below could perhaps yield a more refined answer.) Tests have shown that a car can run for about 7,000 kilometres on a hectare of wheat converted into ethanol, 14,000 km on canola-based biodiesel and 30,000 km on a hectare of chokecherries. http://www.extension.iastate.edu/Pages/grain/news/newsarchive/02i gqinews/020926igqinews4.html http://www.agr.gov.sk.ca/afif/Projects/19960373.pdf To collect agronomic and fruit quality data from previously established cultivar trials of Prairie native fruit species including chokecherry, pincherry, highbush cranberry, black currant, lingonberry and blueberry. http://www.cast-science.org/education/sfa2-2.txt Wild Chokecherries Tamed The sour chokecherry is looking sweeter these days. The demand for chokecherry jelly and syrup is good, so prices are premium for the wild fruit. Now, Colorado has the first cultivated chokecherry orchard in the nation. The research project was conceived and developed by the private sector and paid for by industry and interested citizens. A chokecherry processor in Colorado was troubled by the undependable supply of wild berries, so he formed the Chokecherry Growers Association and asked Colorado State University to conduct research. Two acres on a mesa overlooking the San Juan Basin Research Center has been set aside, fenced, and irrigated. In 1987, 600 seedlings of four varieties were planted.

Wrong again, You may not have been paying attention as he played
his game
since the Gulf War, but, I have. He has been kicked inspectors
out of Iraq,
several times, since the end of the Gulf War.
{ken} Your memory may have conveniently failed you. Hussein did not
kick the inspectors out of Iraq. He asked the American members of
the inspection team to leave because they were CIA agents using the
inspections as a cover to spy on Iraq. The response of the
inspection team was to pull everyone out.
And if memory serves correctly, Saddam says the latest batch also is a bunch
of spies.
I don't believe they pulled out because they were a bunch of pansies and
couldn't handle
being called spies.
It probably had to do with access to sites being blocked etc and diplomacy
not having any effect.
Threat of military action does appear to have an effect, however. I
certainly hope that
military action is not needed. i don't want to argue with anyone about why
its needed..
just want to say that I hope it isn't needed.. thanks :)
One the other hand, accused spy Scott Ritter says that iraq is not a threat:
http://www.cnn.com/2002/WORLD/meast/09/08/ritter.iraq/
Given the standard set by GW should I run into his
house and change the regime? I think not. If we go in and
assume that this is good for us to do what if France decides that
since we have numerous WOMD that we should have a regime change
and masses troops in Quebec? Treaties be damed.
Your missing the point, Saddam has failed to comply with a Peace
Treaty, and several UN resolutions. When is he finally going to
comply? The US on the other hand, has bent over backward with
treaties as that concern WOMD.
(ken} there are many countries that ignore UN resolutions especially
Israel, and treaties are often ignored. The US has not bent over
backward with treaties concerning WOMD. Until just recently no
treaty eliminated nuclear weapons, all the treaties with the Soviet
Union limited future production and occasionally eliminated outdated
weapons. BTW hasn't Bush thumbed his nose at the Kyoto accord and
ignored the ABM treaty?
Probably has something to do with view of excessive regulation on the US vs
almost
no regulation on other countries like China, etc.
We could leave him alone and isolated. It worked for 9 years.
Wrong again, all it did was make him think that he can get away
with more.
We left him alone after the Iraq / Iran war, what did he do? He
went into
Kuwait, and caused acts to be committed that almost put him on par
with the
Talaban in some cases.
(ken) don't forget Bush's daddy led him to believe that he could
invade Kuwait with impunity.
Saying 'the US did not want to get involved in Arab politics' is not the
same
as 'go ahead to kill, rape, and plunder we don't mind, save some for us'.

Re: [biofuel] Troubled Times Slow Charge
Hi Keith and Kris, I do not take a narrow view on technologies either. I would not be Electronic, Building Construction and HVAC engineer with 37 years of computer experiences, if I wasn't passionately interested in technologies. But I share the urgency that Keith have in making something now and that puts a time line on everything we do. What I am afraid of is that people get so distracted, and maybe already are, by all unproven ideas, that we do not do what we can and should do yesterday or at least today. Even if we came up with a fully researched idea for a total solution tomorrow, it would still take around at least 25-30 years and more to generally implement it. You only have to look at Internet to understand it (it took 35 years). This if the idea needed new user equipment and new distribution systems. If the available financial resources at the same time goes down, it would be difficult to do the new investments and the developed countries could find themselves in a downward spiral, difficult to stop. The more dependent the country would be of energy, the the more difficult it would be. Dreams about not ready for use technologies or wars to colonize dwindling resources are not good solutions for the current situation, we need consistent work with implementing ready for use technologies. That is why I am nagging about ready for use technologies and that is why Journey to Forever and Energy Saving Now have it on the web sites. Maybe Keith task in helping the developing world is both a more noble and gratifying one, than my task of trying to get the supposedly advanced and developed world to conserve and change energy use. Sometimes I have the feeling that it would be better to concentrate on the developing world who wants the help, than trying to pull and push the developed jackass off the rail track in front of the rapidly closing train. Maybe I can help with both, but the latter one makes me sometimes a bit stressed and aggressive. That is also why I like this list and Keith as moderator. He have an unique understanding that we, like it or not, have to deal with a lot of political and emotional issues. It is all about changing attitudes and goals, not only issues about technologies. The social aspect of this exercises and education are very important. I think that suddenly the subject title got even more explanatory and fitting.

I've said something like that here before a couple of times, despite the ominous silence that ensued. On the other hand, most of the claims we've seen merit more scepticism than anything else, and that seems to have been well-founded so far, none of them has come to anything. (Yet.) I'm also somewhat sceptical of imminent cataclysmic events as a reason for getting into appropriate technology - cataclysms or no, it doesn't need such reasons, it stands on its own well enough, whether in 3rd World countries or developed nations. I don't take a narrow view of what's on topic when it comes to biofuels, nor that is should necessarily be ready-for-use technology that's discussed. That's Hakan's focus for instance at his excellent website, and indeed ours at Journey to Forever, for obvious reasons. But here we can be much more wide-ranging. But we can really do without stuff like Zeta, definitely without Dennis Lee, and without magnets. Just as long as you're aware of that. Anfd you are. So no problem. Still worth saying soi for others here who might not be aware of it though. regards Keith Well Keith, I got a whole diferent view of that web site. I just spent a couple of hours there but, I didn't click on any of the Zeta info, because I read that stuff years ago. What I saw was a group of young guys, probably a lot like you and me at that age, who are not running around screaming that the sky is falling but, are trying to put their thinking caps on now, so they will have accumulated the knowledge necessary to rebuild after a cataclysmic event. Granted these guys are associating with the scam artists at Zeta but, I didn't see anything really wrong with their message except that Planet X is do to visit in the next 75 days or so. I'm not sure why I spend 2 or 3 hours almost everyday reading about all kinds of strange subjects but, something tells me to keep searching for any info that may be of help when the shit hits the fan. I'm not sure if the boogie man is economic collapse, WWIII, NWO, a pole shift, major earthquakes, or whatever but, I am convinced that it is time to accumlate as much knowledge as possible, so my kids have as good a chance at a decent life as I did.

[biofuel] Oil and water do mix after all
http://www.newscientist.com/news/news.jsp?id=ns3408 Oil and water do mix after all 19:00 19 February 03 Exclusive from New Scientist Print Edition Oil and water do not mix - the mantra is familiar to every schoolchild. You have to shake them to overcome the forces that hold the oil together. Mixing the unmixable Now teachers may want to rewrite their lessons. If you first remove any gas that is dissolved in the water, it will mix spontaneously and even stay that way indefinitely, according to chemist Ric Pashley of the Australian National University in Canberra. Many scientists are going to find this very hard to believe, says colloid scientist Len Fisher of the University of Bristol in England, but Pashley has provided very strong proof that oil and water will mix. Pashley's observation is bound to cause controversy as the reason it happens is still unclear. Chemists are waiting to see whether the experiment can be repeated. If confirmed, the finding could provide clues to one of chemistry's most puzzling phenomena. This is the so-called long-range hydrophobic force, which causes oil surfaces to attract one another over what to chemists are remarkably long distances. French dressing The effect prevents oil's dispersion in water, and means that you can only make oil and water emulsions, such as French dressing for salads, by shaking them and adding stabilising agents. But although countless chemists have measured the force, no one has ever been able to explain how it works. Pashley was studying oil-like hydrophobic surfaces as they were being pulled apart, and spotted microscopic cavities appearing on their surfaces. Water that has been exposed to air contains the equivalent of several teaspoonfuls of dissolved gas per litre, and Pashley suspected that the cavities contained bubbles of gas that had been drawn out of the water, maybe as a consequence of the long-range hydrophobic force. To test his hunch, Pashley removed almost all the gas from a water-oil mixture by repeatedly freezing and thawing it while pumping off the gases as they evaporated out (Journal of Physical Chemistry B, vol 107, p 1714). What he saw then was completely unexpected. The mix spontaneously formed a cloudy emulsion. I was as surprised as anybody, says Pashley. The result suggests that dissolved gas may be involved in how the force acts. Extremely close He takes the air out and he doesn't get the long-range hydrophobic force. It doesn't nail the hydrophobic force down, but now we have something to work on, says James Quirk, a chemist at the University of Western Australia in Perth, who hopes that studying the spontaneous emulsions may lead to an explanation for the elusive force.

Pashley suggests that the gas might interfere with the hydrophobic force most effectively only when the oil droplets are extremely close together, such as when they are first separating as the emulsion starts to form. Once the emulsion has formed, hydroxyl groups from the water adsorb onto the surface of the oil droplets, making them similarly charged and thus preventing them from coming close together. If spontaneous emulsions can be made at will, they could have important applications in medicine and the chemical industry. Many injectable medicines are currently only soluble in oil. An alternative might be to disperse the medicine in degassed water, which is already produced on a large scale by the oil industry. Emulsion paints, which currently use chemical stabilisers to stop them separating, could also be made more cheaply if degassed water would do the trick.
