Re: [Biofuel] Tar Sands Report

[Walker Bennett]

I read the Globe and mail and Toronto Star every day.  It's been public for
almost a year that the U.S. will receive very little benefit from any
pipeline.  Stephen Harper signed the deal with China in February and last
month signed a deal with Japan for the steel for the pipes.

As Keystone is a Canadian company, the majority of labour for the pipeline
will be performed by Canadian citizens, not Americans.

The only benefit the U.S. will see is oil in our drinking water when the
inevitable spills happen in the Midwest.

Keystone XL's Dirty Little Secret

Monday, 09 April 2012 09:18

By Jim Hightower, OtherWords | News Analysis

The people and companies pushing the tar-sands pipeline don't want 
you to know that most of this oil won't be made into gasoline for our 
vehicles.

It's certainly true, declared Energy Secretary Stephen Chu, that 
having Canada as a supplier for our oil is much more comforting than 
to have other countries supply our oil.

He was referring to the Canadian tar sands oil that TransCanada 
Corporation intends to move through the Keystone XL pipeline it wants 
to build from Alberta to refineries on the Texas Gulf Coast. He and 
lobbyists for the pipeline assert that filling America's gas tanks 
with fuel derived from Canadian crude will cut U.S. dependency on the 
oil we get from unstable and unfriendly nations.

Good point! If it were true. However, ask yourself this question: why 
go to the expense of piping this stuff 2,000 miles through six 
states, endangering water supplies and residents with inevitable 
toxic spills, when there are oil refineries much closer to Canada in 
the Midwest? What's the advantage of sending Canadian crude to 
refineries way down in Port Arthur, Texas? Aha - because it's a port!

What the pushers of Keystone want to keep secret from you and me is 
that this oil will not be made into gasoline for our vehicles. Most 
of it will be refined into diesel and jet fuel and exported to 
Europe, China, and Latin America.

The claim that the pipeline will reduce our reliance on OPEC is an 
outright lie. Such oil giants as Valero, Motiva, and Total have 
already rejiggered their Port Arthur refineries specifically to make 
diesel and jet fuel, nearly all of which will then be piped into 
tanker ships at the port and sent abroad. In presentations to 
investors, Valero openly touts its export strategy, even showing 
world maps with convenient arrows pointing from Port Arthur to its 
foreign customers.

You'd think our energy secretary would know this dirty little secret 
and come clean with the American people.

Re: [Biofuel] In other news. Milk labelling controvery in US

[Walker Bennett]

Monsanto wins another one.

Chip Mefford [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:  Something I've been following in my 
neighboring state of Pennsylvania in
the US.

---

The most succinct write up I've seen on this subject can be found here:

http://www.voicesweb.org/?q=node/1100

In a nutshell. Pennsylvania being one of the few remaining
states in the US that is still quite interested in maintaining
it's agriculture, made a very interesting move in attempting
to ban labeling milk as being anything other than milk. It's
rather hard to explain. In essence, more and more folks at
the top of the food chain (otherwise known as 'consumers,
-and I really hate that meme-) are learning more and more
about their food supply and wanting a better quality product
than is made available by contemporary factory farming techniques.

To meet this new-ish demand, many farmers are rejecting the
factory farming model. In particular, the use of rBST/rBGH
(Monsanto's Posilac) is being flat out rejected by some
dairy farmers. Farmers who view their cattle as a bit more
than just a biological chemical refinery. It's difficult
to avoid pejorative language here, but I'm trying.

In response to this growing awareness on behalf of folks
who drink the milk. The Pennsylvania State Secretary of Agriculture
Dennis Wolff formed a (now locally infamous) 'Food Labeling Advisory
Committee' back in October of 2007. This committee made the unilateral
decision that labeling milk as being 'rBST Free' was misleading
to 'consumers' and the practice should be banned. Secretary
Dennis Wolff then had the state pass a law banning the labeling
of milk as being rBST free. This ban is supposed to go
into effect Jan 1, 2008.

Pennsylvania is doing a lot of things right. Their 'Buy Fresh,
Buy Local' campaign is one example. There is the
state wide Pennsylvania Association for Sustainable Agriculture.
PASA http://www.pasafarming.org/ , a very active and healthy
group that 'gets it'. and other such things. Like I said,
Pa does a lot of things right. This is a thing they are doing
quite wrong. Other states are following suit. According to the
article at least 4 other states have laws pending to outlaw
food labeling in this manner.

One step forward, two steps back, but with the will to take
another step forward, things get done.

For what it's worth.

[Biofuel] San Francisco Fleet Is All Biodiesel

San Francisco Fleet Is All Biodiesel 
  
  By CAROLYN MARSHALL
  Published: December 2, 2007
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 30 — Claiming it now has the largest green fleet in the 
nation, the city of San Francisco this week completed a yearlong project to 
convert its entire array of diesel vehicles — from ambulances to street 
sweepers — to biodiesel, a clean-burning and renewable fuel that holds promise 
for helping to reduce greenhouse gases.

Hakan,

I don't think that a majority were responsible for the reselection of the

What you're about to witness is an event similar to November 1917...only

Mike,

Is it US in the meaning of we, or is it US administration in the meaning of
they? It seams that you are fishing for others opinion, in order to build
your own opinion.

My opinion is that I have never seen such a despicable US administration
before and they are trowing out any kind of accusation to build their own
case, this regardless of truth or honor.

It is also obvious now, that a majority of Americans identify themselves
with this kind of behavior and that it was worth to acknowledge with a solid
re-election of Bush. This despite a solid world opinion of the opposite.

I feel sorry for the minority of Americans, who take a stand against what is
going on. This shameful period and loss of trust that US is going through
now, will take a very long time to repair.

Re: [Biofuel] Nikola Tesla, The Master of Lightning

[Walker Bennett]

One of Tesla's last experiments was to tape in to the magnetic field of the
Earth to produce power.  Some say he succeeded, but no notes were found
after his death.  Of course, the War Department and Naval Research Lab
confiscated most of his belongings after his death.  A trunk full of his
papers was discovered in the '60s in his native Yugoslavia, but now that
we've totally screwed up Bosnia-Herzegovina and the rest of the former
Republic, there's no telling where they are now.

In fact, we had a golden era of the zero-emissions, quiet electric car 
for approximately 30 years circa 1900.  I have made rather a study of it 
(still in progress).  If you want to learn more, I heartily recommend my 
webpages on the subject, beginning at:
http://www.econogics.com/ev/evhistry.htm

As for the Tesla electric car, I can only wish and dream the story is 
true and not apocryphal (and that we can stumble upon the secret again). 
  However, given the amount of power that vacuum tubes of the period 
could typically handle (and especially the type that would have been in 
stock in a local store), I remain skeptical about this story.  Yes, he 
could have built an inverter, but I don't see how it could have handled 
the power to travel in a heavy vehicle with poor aerodynamics at over 90 
mph with typical vacuum tubes of the period.  For 80 hp, we are talking 
about 60,000 watts.  Assuming a 3-phase inverter (3-phase AC being 
Tesla's trademark), using 12 tubes, that's 4 tubes per phase.  With 2 
tubes for the negative side and two tubes for the positive side for each 
phase, that means each tube (if perfectly balanced) would have to handle 
30,000 watts (each phase has to be able to handle the full rated power). 
  If high voltage were available in the ether, I suspect organisms such 
as ourselves would have serious issues.  So, that leaves high current as 
the alternative, again, not friendly to typical vacuum tubes.

I welcome the opportunity to be convinced otherwise, preferably with a 
working model that is available for demonstration and examination.

Re: [Biofuel] Nikola Tesla, The Master of Lightning

[Walker Bennett]

This idea surfaces every couple of years and is totally impractical. 

Example:  In the '60s I was briefly stationed at Treasure Island, California
(middle of SF Bay). We had an AN-SPS30 Radar (i.e., microwave) installation
on the island (6MW) that the city of San Francisco wouldn't let the Navy
turn on because it lit up every fluorescent bulb in a 10-mile radius.

A typical power plant generates Gigawatts, not Megawatts...imagine what a
several a GW beam would do to anything that got in the way.

Actually, you can transmit power over the air using microwaves.  To the 
best of my knowledge this is proven, but I have no idea about the 
efficiencies..  There were stories a year or two ago about setting up 
solar panels on the moon and transmitting the power back down to earth 
using microwaves.

[Biofuel] Fwd: {OHG} RE: Postmortem Residence

[Walker Bennett]

I don't know if this has been discussed here or not, but if it works as advertised, it's a heck of an answer to most of our energy problems.
Website for article: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/897232/postsUnlike other solid-to-liquid-fuel processes such as cornstarch into ethanol, this one will accept almost any carbon-based feedstock. *** If a 175-pound man fell into one end, he would come out the other end as 38 pounds of oil, 7 pounds of gas, and 7 pounds of minerals, as well as 123 pounds of sterilized water. ***While no one plans to put people into a thermal depolymerization machine, an intimate human creation could become a prime feedstock. "There is no reason why we can't turn sewage, including human excrement, into a glorious oil," says engineer Terry Adams, a project consultant. So the city of Philadelphia is in discussion with Changing World Technologies
 to begin doing exactly that.

[Biofuel] is this a better use for sump oil?

[Walker Bennett]

Title: Message




I 
really don't see where this is doable. In 1978 I experimented a great deal 
in the conversion of motor oil into fuel (diesel and/or gasoline). I tried 
many methods, including constructing a fractional distillation tower and using 
catalysts to "crack" the stuff. The major problem that I ran across was 
the "additives" put into all of the various brands.

While 
I did manage to create some of the lower distillates, the odor of the process 
rendered it totally impractical.
