was indeed an idiot, me! We just used the standard 1040 form which does not 
allow for multiple taxing rates; you pay at the rate of the gross taxable 
income. I had never heard of being able to apply rates in stages, can you 
point me to the code that allows this? Perhaps next time we should consult 
an accountant!

Hey Lillie-

Thanks for sharing the nice story about your taxes. But frankly, I don't 
see how it can be true. If it is, your accountant is either an idiot or a 
crook. Either that, or you're not telling the whole story.


When you jump from one tax bracket to the next, only the amount over the 
cutoff is taxed at the higher rate.  The amount under a specific cutoff is 
still taxed at the lower rate. There is no possible way that simply 
jumping a tax bracket due to an increase of $3000 in taxable income could 
result in an extra $6000 in tax liability.


Perhaps an example is in order. Assume you made 56,000 dollars in taxable 
income last year. The first $14,000 is taxed at 10% and the amount over 
$14000 is taxed at 15%. This means you owe $1400 on the first $12k and 
$6300 on the next $42k for a total liability of $7700.


Now assume you make an extra $3000 this year. Your taxable income 
increases to $59,000. You pay $1400 on the first $14k, $6420 on the next 
$42,800, and $550 on the amount over $56,800 for a total liability of 
$8370.


In this example, an increase of $3000 in taxable income increases tax 
liability by $670, not $6000.


Even in the worst possible case, $2999 taxed at 35%, the increase is only 
an additional tax burden of $1049.65.


So either you're not telling the whole story, or you are getting ripped 
off, but there is no way that increasing your taxable income by $3000 
increased your tax liability by $6000 simply by moving up one tax bracket. 
It just doesn't work that way.

That's the reason that people vote for Bush, and no other.  The problem is
that this is a flase belief.  Real wages have gone down since Bush took
office, and jobs have been lost.  If you earn over $200,000 per year, you
do have more money in your pocket.  If you are like 99% of the country,
chances are that you have lost ground.

Your basis for this?  Bush lied to bring this country to war, and
continues to lie about the reasons for it.  What lies has Kerry told?
This statement needs to be backed up with some evidence.

It is guaranteed

Re: [Biofuel] Kids Opt for Kerry

2004-10-23 Thread Appal Energy



Not much need for anyone to disagree about the politics at hand  if they 
were to evaluate everything face forward rather than hoping against hope.


I was speaking with a member of the ROTC brass last week. While he seemed 
rather complacent in justifying his support of the president, he did make an 
all too valid observation. We were speaking of the broad reaches and 
ramifications of effective energy/efficiency/conservation policy. I made the 
remark that this country (the US) is obese in it's patterns of energy waste.


He responded that all one has to do is look at the average wasteline to be 
able to draw some evidence of that, stating that what this country severely 
needs is discipline.


Yah. Sure. Perhaps one might expect such a remark from a military rep. But 
he's perfectly and absolutely correct. And his observation probably extends 
accurately far beyond energy issues. At least one military rep recognizes 
how wasteful his country is.


As for a global Marshal Plan? Virtually every person I speak to for more 
than a few seconds, no matter what cloth they are cut from, agrees that 
enormous inroads could be gained in global health, environment, 
international animosity, perceptions of global corporatism and political 
corruption if such a plan were initiated. Certainly it would be grand if an 
American president had the backbone to do exactly that. Nothing could better 
unite a fractionalized country, at least in some part.


One thing is almost an absolute certainty - more cast in stone than anything 
Moses ever saw - the present president will do virtually nothing from his 
end to level the energy playing field in anything more than a gratuitous 
manner. Energy prices will continue to surge, and profit alone will be the 
impetus for businesses and families to venture into renewables, efficiency 
and conservation. But that will be more a result of inaction by an 
administration than any action. Energy giants will continue to be 
inequitably subsidized and reap increasingly enormous profits as a result of 
soaring prices. The poor will be  poorer, the cold colder and everyone 
across the planet will be a little older and further behind the eight ball.


If for no other reason than the squandering of energy and the placing of a 
nation in a poorer position of insecurity, Mr. Bush should be handed his 
walking papers and a more conscious replacement given opportunity to begin 
effecting the necessary changes.


All Mr. Bush's other mistakes are just more window dressing for cause.

Todd,

I think that for the most part, it is just going to be a matter of 
agreeing

to disagree about Politics and those that make a living from it.

OTOH, I think that for the most part, we do agree for the most that
something needs to be done about world energy practice, although, I 
believe
that the way it needs to be done starts falling into the realm of 
politics.


Your idea of a  global Marshal Plan on energy  has merit, the problem is
that the maximum number of terms that a person may be President of the US,
puts a damper on it.Someone that is in office for only a maximum of 8
years, is only looking to do the best they can for those 8 years, because
sure a there are little green apples, the next man in, is most likely 
going

to change things.

For the idea to have a global Marshal Plan on energy for 16 to 20 years,
means it would have to be a law from congress, and few people their would 
be

willing to gamble with any presidential ambitions that they may have,
although a few would rather stay in congress where they think that they 
can

make a long term difference.The one real chance for a global Marshal
Plan on energy, would be to vote a majority of congressional members into
office, that would not care if they served a second term of not, because I
don't think that most Americans would like the results, and would vote 
them

out the next election.

Should a energy Marshal Plan like law pass, the thing that you would then
have to worry about then is Big Oil and those that benefit from Big Oil (
farmers that rely on the fertilizer that oil is used for, the workers that
work for companies that rely on oil to produce the products and so on )
taking the global energy Marshal Plan law to court, calling it
unconstitutional, discriminatory, ect...

While wanting everyone to have there oars in the water, is nice, I think
that there are just too many people in the world with differing opinions, 
to

come to a world wide consensus.To many people want the walls and
division, it makes them feel special.To touch lightly on politics,
people like Jessie Jackson appears to like building walls, were as Marten 
L.

King wanted to tear them down.

have sworn fealty to Israel instead of thier own people.
The good of the one is not necessarily to the benefit of the other, unless 
we are looking at ONLY the political agendas.
What a friend the US has in Israel; they bombed the USS Liberty knowing full 
well it was an American ship and killed a bunch of sailors hoping to get 
America to retaliate against Egypt. The Mossad set up a transmitter in a 
blacl ops in Tripoli Lybia knowing full well the US echelon or other such 
intelligence apparatus would decipher the mesage, and Reagan bombed Lybia 
killing Ghaddafi's 11 year old daughter. There is more than a little doubt 
about the USS Cole incident as well, not to mention the information linking 
Israel to 9-11 that Bush had classified. The FBI recently were in the 
process of unearthing an entire spy ring centered around AIPAC, the Zionist 
front group and the Office of Special Projects headed by
Zionists until they were ordered to lay off by Rummy himself. Tghe spes 
would have a channel that flowed information to and from Israel without the 
hinderance of being cleared via the CIA and that way the WMD lie was 
cooked up that led to the criminal slaughter of thousands. What a friend, 
huh?
So what does America have to look forward to? One way or the other the 
interests of Israel will be put ahead of those of the American people.
Most people, includig myself, do not hate Americans, although what is being 
done in their name by the governing body and their friends is worthhy of 
the highest disdain, regardless of the system of values  that one holds 
dear. The exception to that (system of values)has already been covered in 
past posts, so no sense in beating it any more here.
Both Bush and Kerry have the same almamater, The Skull and Bones society at 
Yale, a notably satanic ritualistic and highly secretive group which neither 
candidate will to this day talk about.
One report even has them blood relatives to a British lineage, however that 
is not conclusively proven, I believe.
Children are simple at heart, as they should be, and will automatically see 
a warmonger and be attracted to whomever is opposite. Even if syblings are 
often at odds with each other, it is very traumatising for them if the 
parents are in a constant state of disunity and quarrel. It is not an 
environment they appreciate, so sinmply looking at things Kerry has not yet 
shown his entire true colours and Bush has. He has lied to the world to 
start a war of conquest. Children are not stupid either and can see that as 
well, enough to not want anything to do with it.

 http://www.commondreams.org/headlines04/1020-08.htm

 LOS ANGELES - The kids have spoken, and it's
 Sen. John Kerry with a convincing victory over
 President Bush on Nov. 2.

 An unusual opinion poll that has correctly predicted the winner of the
 last four presidential elections has given Democratic challenger
 Kerry 57 percent against 43 percent for Bush,
 according to results released on Wednesday.

 The Nickelodeon cable channel, better known for programs
 SpongeBob Squarepants and Jimmy Neutron,
 conducted Kids Vote, an online survey of
 almost 400,000 children on Tuesday.

   The latest Reuters/Zogby poll showed Bush
   and Kerry in a dead heat two weeks before
   the Nov. 2 election. Other polls also showed
   them in a statistical tie or Bush holding
   a slim lead.

 Nickelodeon, a unit of Viacom Inc.,
 has organized its poll every election since 1988, and
 has a 100 percent record of picking the winner.

 The 'Kids' Vote' seems to work as a good barometer of the
 actual presidential vote because, developmentally,
 kids between the ages of two and 11
 share the same opinions and outlooks as their parents,
 said Cyma Zarghami, president of Nickelodeon Television.

 The survey was the final step in a yearlong
 political awareness campaign on Nickelodeon.

Intelligence cutbacks to virtually nonexistant?

I guess that also explains why all the WMDs turned out to be
non-existant..., because the darned good intelligence that George W. Bush
said he gets, was actually virtually nonexistant (according to Greg
Harbican) because funding for intel had been previously cut back to zero.
(Oh..., sorry..., virtually nonexistant.)

Well. That answers that question. But if you're right Greg, then George W.
should be appropriately assessed as being nothing but a bald faced liar who
fabricates intel out of thin air, because there was virtually no
intelligence (You know..., due to the cut backs you refer to.).  Now, we
wouldn't want your conclusive findings to give cause for assessing something
as ugly as that against Mr. Bush, would we?

And do you remember those timely panty raids (Republican inside joke) that
were conducted during the impeachment hearings? You know, the attacks on
suspected terrorist camps that the anti-Clinton camp claimed were a
pre-meditated diversion from the hearings?

I have to profess, all these dyed in the wool Bush supporters are a peculiar
lot, always wanting it both ways. Bombing is a diversion. Not bombing lets
the blame be cast against someone else's watch.

Must be quite convenient fabricating no-lose situations for all occassions.
Helps considerably in shifting the burden of responsibility whenever that
time comes.

Come on Greg. Just between you, me, Donald Rumsfeld, George Bush and the fly
on the wall? We know where the[ weapons of mass destruction] are, don't
we?

Re: [Biofuel] Kids Opt for Kerry

2004-10-22 Thread Abraham Lincoln


I have sat by and watched these tirades on the Biodiesel list for sometime.

It still eludes me what this has to due with Biodiesel.My father worked for
Texaco as a simple refinery worker.  This is why I joined this list.I think
motor fuel production could be in hands of the little guy. I would like to
be a part of that.

I don't think the war in Iraq was a good idea. I think alternative energy
is. For the most part, I think the members of this list share this
viewpoint.

If there is a Zionist cabal as you called it, they have sertainly missed
me and my family for several generations. Yes, I am a Jew. But if my
resident country determines I can be of help,I serve. My grandfather,
father, myself,my son, and soon my daughter have all served in a
branches of the U.S.Federal Government which required combat
or great risk.

You see as Jews, we don't seek to convert people to our religion. (or to
protect Israel) Our obligation is teach (or more accurately tell) you of
one G-d and what his expectations are for you, i.e. that you follow
7 of the 10 commandments.

It is with great regret I must inform you that I am not a Torah Scholar. But
I have seen many inaccuracies posted here (1) about us and our relationship
with G-d. This is basically, from what I can surmise, from people who have
probably had very little contact with Jews. I base this upon the geography
of the postings.

It is really with our G-d that I think your complaints are against. Israel
doesn't really affect your life on a day to day basis.  But our G-d's laws
do.

And this has everything to do with Biodiesel.

Just for the record, weather you like us or not, this is what He expects
from you.

 1. Do not murder.
 2. Do not steal.
 3. Do not worship false gods.
 4. Do not be sexually immoral.
 5. Do not eat the limb of an animal before it is killed.
 6. Do not curse God.
 7. Set up courts and bring offenders to justice.

Attempting to bring us down, or to tell us that our relationship with G-d
has changed, (and therefore you are off the hook for the above laws), will
not change his expectation that you follow the above laws. If you hate these
laws it is something you should take up with him.

We are still going to be here, AS HE PROMISED.

Israel is going to be here AS HE PROMISED.

And you will be judged (as we will) AS HE PROMISED.

There is only one G-d.

And that one G-d rules the universe and expects you to follow the above
seven laws.

The fact that we are here, proving his existence, and expectations, is what
your compliant is truly against.


(1) Such as I intentionally exclude The Talmud here as it is NOT a holy
book but rather an extrapolation of rabinical doctrines, dogmas and
traditions unrealated to the texts of any of the above,except to distort and
manipulate them.

Here again you apperently want to kill the messenger. Major sections of
Tumud teach against the evil tonge for your postings, you are apparently
attached to this path. I have also seen kindness in your desire to help
others in your postings.  I would suggest that you follow the path of
kindness.

Main problem facing Americans (amongst the many) is that both candidates 
have sworn fealty to Israel instead of thier own people.
The good of the one is not necessarily to the benefit of the other, unless 
we are looking at ONLY the political agendas.
What a friend the US has in Israel; they bombed the USS Liberty knowing 
full well it was an American ship and killed a bunch of sailors hoping to 
get America to retaliate against Egypt. The Mossad set up a transmitter in 
a blacl ops in Tripoli Lybia knowing full well the US echelon or other such 
intelligence apparatus would decipher the mesage, and Reagan bombed Lybia 
killing Ghaddafi's 11 year old daughter. There is more than a little doubt 
about the USS Cole incident as well, not to mention the information linking 
Israel to 9-11 that Bush had classified. The FBI recently were in the 
process of unearthing an entire spy ring centered around AIPAC, the Zionist 
front group and the Office of Special Projects headed by
Zionists until they were ordered to lay off by Rummy himself. Tghe spes 
would have a channel that flowed information to and from Israel without the 
hinderance of being cleared via the CIA and that way the WMD lie was 
cooked up that led to the criminal slaughter of thousands. What a friend, 
huh?
So what does America have to look forward to? One way or the other the 
interests of Israel will be put ahead of those of the American people.
Most people, includig myself, do not hate Americans, although what is being 
done in their name by the governing body and their friends is worthhy of 
the highest disdain, regardless of the system of values  that one holds 
dear. The exception to that (system of values)has already been covered in 
past posts

 There are so many of them. I'm going to stick with biofuels and

 one sided.
 
 No, you do. You fling charges and claims about that you don't
 substantiate, when asked to substantiate them you obfuscate. Reason:
 no substance. You've done that here before. This is the truth of it:
 
 In Steve Spence's opinion, there have been half truths and hateful
 misinformationÊÊspread on this list, where many members are not only
 anti-Bush but anti-American, but since, not for the first time, he's
 unable to provide any substance for this nor any instances of it when
 challenged to do so, it's just an empty opinion, based simply on
 Steve's inability to counter views he disagrees with and objects to.

 Please, would you do everyone a very big service and point to the
 half-truths (plural) and misinformation that you are eluding to? And when
 you've addressed those claims, please be so kind as to zero in on what
 aspects are hateful.
 
 I would think that if you take such great acception with what others 
state
 that you would redress those statements specifically and steer clear of
 overly broad and sweeping generalizations.
 
 But then again, that type of evasiveness does serve it's purpose, doesn't

Hmmm, this is interesting.

Intelligence cutbacks to virtually nonexistant?

I guess that also explains why all the WMDs turned out to be
non-existant..., because the darned good intelligence that George W. 
Bush

said he gets, was actually virtually nonexistant (according to Greg
Harbican) because funding for intel had been previously cut back to 
zero.

(Oh..., sorry..., virtually nonexistant.)

Well. That answers that question. But if you're right Greg, then George 
W.
should be appropriately assessed as being nothing but a bald faced liar 
who

fabricates intel out of thin air, because there was virtually no
intelligence (You know..., due to the cut backs you refer to.).  Now, we
wouldn't want your conclusive findings to give cause for assessing 
something

as ugly as that against Mr. Bush, would we?

And do you remember those timely panty raids (Republican inside joke) 
that

were conducted during the impeachment hearings? You know, the attacks on
suspected terrorist camps that the anti-Clinton camp claimed were a
pre-meditated diversion from the hearings?

I have to profess, all these dyed in the wool Bush supporters are a 
peculiar
lot, always wanting it both ways. Bombing is a diversion. Not bombing 
lets

the blame be cast against someone else's watch.

Must be quite convenient fabricating no-lose situations for all 
occassions.

I'm no fan of Bill Clinton and he his administration was dealing with the
Taliban terrorists on that darn pipeline for a time, they did wake up and
saw the folly and ceased dealing with them, to have Bush renew the
negotiations.  Clinton era intelligence was what used to set up conditions
so they got lucky and foiled the plot on the West Coast at the millenium.
Security was not on top of GWB agenda when he entered office, a good portion
of his efforts apon taking office where to pay back those who bank rolled
him.  Why did the  9-11 commission investigation stop at the Clinton
administration.  Surely the previous 12 years of my countries willingness to
deal with terrorists surely has a negative role.  My first thought when I
watch the TV coverage of the second impact was Binladen, my second thought
was once again the wrong persons paid the highest price for the mistakes of
my government.  Make no mistake about it the men that piloted those planes
are responsible for the murders on 9-11. IMO if life was fair the only ones
to die would have been all  members of the Reagan, both Bush and yes the
Clinton administrations.

RE: Re: [Biofuel] Kids Opt for Kerry

2004-10-22 Thread Tim Ferguson

Steve,

Having differing opinions and opposing views are
vital to problem identification. A group of
people all in agreement with one another will
hardly identify new ways, or better approaches to
any endeavor because even if that group does not
develop the dangerous mind set of we've always
done it that way, their thought processes are so
entrenched that any new ideas are terribly diluted
with the same old thinking. Disagreement is very
important. In this list all opinions are
encouraged to be expressed but they are expected;
no, required to be validated with sound evidence.

In order to develop solutions to today's problems
we must have consensus. And consensus begins with
debate from various opinions. Differing opinions.
And for any individual to hope of having their
opinion furthered within the debate, they must
have sound, intelligent and convincing arguments
for their opinion. Without such evidence, their
opinion is baseless and no longer worthy of
consideration towards consensus.

I have on many occasion found my arguments to fall
from the table of debate as my arguments were not
sufficiently supportive of my opinion or my
opinion was flawed. But I would like to believe
that I am a better man for trying to forward my
arguments and evidence yet I know that I am a
better man for staying at the debate and learning
from the arguments of others. In the end, I want
to be a part of the solution.

Keith is right that being able to admit you are
wrong is only going to gain you respect at the
table of debate. I'm sure there will be some who
will disagree with my opinion stated here today or
the semantics of my less than eloquent delivery.
But I am always open for debate and more
importantly...to learn.

Best Wishes,
Tim F.

RE: [Biofuel] Kids Opt for Kerry

2004-10-22 Thread Peggy

Thank you Abraham,

Acceptance of the best of each religious doctrine promotes peace.
Looking for the bad in each philosophy promotes disharmony that erupts
in problems.  When I collect my garden vegetables I consider paring
those blemishes that will not suit my personal palate and enjoy really
good meals.  You are correct to highlight the best.   Too many people
(the noisy ones) like to rant about issues that will naturally flow into
goodness regardless of a presidential candidate.  The concepts of
appreciation and stewardship begin at home and are fundamental to most
faiths.  A global consciousness does not have to erase unique regional
characteristics.

Best wishes,
Peggy

I have sat by and watched these tirades on the Biodiesel list for
sometime.

It still eludes me what this has to due with Biodiesel.My father worked
for
Texaco as a simple refinery worker.  This is why I joined this list.I
think
motor fuel production could be in hands of the little guy. I would
like to
be a part of that.

I don't think the war in Iraq was a good idea. I think alternative
energy
is. For the most part, I think the members of this list share this
viewpoint.

If there is a Zionist cabal as you called it, they have sertainly
missed
me and my family for several generations. Yes, I am a Jew. But if my
resident country determines I can be of help,I serve. My grandfather,
father, myself,my son, and soon my daughter have all served in a
branches of the U.S.Federal Government which required combat
or great risk.

You see as Jews, we don't seek to convert people to our religion. (or to
protect Israel) Our obligation is teach (or more accurately tell) you of
one G-d and what his expectations are for you, i.e. that you follow
7 of the 10 commandments.

It is with great regret I must inform you that I am not a Torah Scholar.
But
I have seen many inaccuracies posted here (1) about us and our
relationship
with G-d. This is basically, from what I can surmise, from people who
have
probably had very little contact with Jews. I base this upon the
geography
of the postings.

It is really with our G-d that I think your complaints are against.
Israel
doesn't really affect your life on a day to day basis.  But our G-d's
laws
do.

And this has everything to do with Biodiesel.

Just for the record, weather you like us or not, this is what He expects
from you.

  1. Do not murder.
  2. Do not steal.
  3. Do not worship false gods.
  4. Do not be sexually immoral.
  5. Do not eat the limb of an animal before it is killed.
  6. Do not curse God.
  7. Set up courts and bring offenders to justice.

Attempting to bring us down, or to tell us that our relationship with
G-d
has changed, (and therefore you are off the hook for the above laws),
will
not change his expectation that you follow the above laws. If you hate
these
laws it is something you should take up with him.

We are still going to be here, AS HE PROMISED.

Israel is going to be here AS HE PROMISED.

And you will be judged (as we will) AS HE PROMISED.

There is only one G-d.

And that one G-d rules the universe and expects you to follow the above
seven laws.

The fact that we are here, proving his existence, and expectations, is
what
your compliant is truly against.


(1) Such as I intentionally exclude The Talmud here as it is NOT a holy
book but rather an extrapolation of rabinical doctrines, dogmas and
traditions unrealated to the texts of any of the above,except to distort

manipulate them.

Here again you apperently want to kill the messenger. Major sections
of
Tumud teach against the evil tonge for your postings, you are
apparently
attached to this path. I have also seen kindness in your desire to help
others in your postings.  I would suggest that you follow the path of
kindness.

That's the reason that people vote for Bush, and no other.  The problem is
that this is a flase belief.  Real wages have gone down since Bush took
office, and jobs have been lost.  If you earn over $200,000 per year, you
do have more money in your pocket.  If you are like 99% of the country,
chances are that you have lost ground.

 : Kerry is nothing but hollow promises and outright lies.

Your basis for this?  Bush lied to bring this country to war, and
continues to lie about the reasons for it.  What lies has Kerry told? 
This statement needs to be backed up with some evidence.

 It is guaranteed

Your basis for this gaurantee?  Again, a baseless lie, this time reported
as a gaurantee.

Socialist love to claim
 they

 even
 : though most of the world is socialist!

Already addressed as a fallacy.

All they can do is blame the US
 for

 it.

Interesting, you make a gaurantee, then state that you cannot prove it. 
You've learned well from your President.  State lies forcefully, then when

:-)

That's what is worrisome every time such broad assertions are made. Perhaps 
you and everyone else can see why even the presentation of the shoddiest 
shred of fabric supporting such pandemonial beliefs lends well to getting to 
the truth of those matters that we all cling to in one way or another - 
false or otherwise.


What I wonder is if you realize to what degree your country (and mine) has 
always been steeped in socialism? Are you familiar with those roads you 
travel? Those sewer and water lines you use? The tarmac you land on? The 
milk you drink? The flour, corn and soy tortillas you eat? The fuel you put 
in your car? The electricity you toast your bread with? The steel you roof 
your barn with? Your child's education? Much of your health care? Your 
military? Bailouts of other nations?


At least let's be honest about your fears and realize that we've been 
swimming in a socially inclined stew pot since the birth of this nation - 
out of sheer necessity. What should be addressed are those areas where 
socialistic principles are abandoned or abused by others and supplanted by 
greed and self and/or private interests.


If your hope is to see more people hold onto and/or achieve the American 
dream, then being aware of and accepting a fair degree of socialistic 
orientation is rather healthy. If you could care less about the vast chasm 
between abject poverty and wealth then you'll also have to steel yourself 
for all those amenities that you're presently enjoying that will be stripped 
away from you if we move the opposite direction.


Assisting others is part of the burden of being human.But there's also 
reward in the same burden.  Just because assistance is often done through 
the veils of government doesn't necessarily make it destructive or of 
negative value. Only when such funneling turns into frivolous waste at 
public expense should the hanging noose be made ready.

Not to mention the economic crash on GWB's watch! Ha. Ha. Ha.

I just gotta tell my story: Bob and I saved for ten years, finally we had 
$18,000 in the savings collecting miniscule interest. An advisor put us on 
to a great annuity, paying 7% 1st year, 6% 2nd year and 5% the third year 
but after that the interest performance was just like the bank. We earned 
about $3,000 in 4 years. We decided the best investment opportunity now 
was land, we both always wanted some land. So be bought the land and 
cashed in on the annuity to help pay for it. We didn't mind paying the 10% 
early withdrawal tax. What we didn't realize was the extra $3,000 earnings 
put us into the next tax bracket and we owed $6,000 extra income tax. 
That's is a lot of money to cough up! Then we had to pay the penalty for 
not paying enough estimated tax! Not only did we loose the earnings but 
went another $3,000+ in the hole. We would have been better off leaving 
the money in the bank.

Re: [Biofuel] Kids Opt for Kerry

2004-10-22 Thread Hakan Falk


Abraham,

As you describe it, you are very representative for my Jewish friends and 
others that I met. I am always trying to keep a difference between Israel 
government policies and Jews, as I try to keep a difference between US 
administration and Americans. Maybe I am not successful in making that 
clear all the times, but I am trying my best. We share the same human 
values and as i always try to point out, the Jews, Muslims and Christians 
share the same God and the same basic values. The problems arise on 
prophets and other spokes persons and their interpretations, who claim that 
they and none else represent the God and by that initiate severe conflicts. 
Their activities are in direct violation with the basic rules that the God 
gave them.


The conflicts and wars, after WWI, always had energy as a strong factor. 
Most of them, including WWII, was about economic interests and control with 
energy as a very strong element. It is almost impossible to have an 
interest in energy solutions, without getting in to politics and try to 
understand what is behind all roadblocks for sustainable and ready for 
use solutions. If we are going to get anywhere and in a relative peaceful 
way, national and cooperate politics have to change. It is not a question 
about getting there, since it will be forced by lack of resources, it is a 
question of how much violence it will take.

Actualy, I could understand it if Bush honestly thought there were WMDs, 
if

he was using old data from the Clinton admin., that wasn't gone through
before, mixed with new data.

And let's get it correct, I said  human gathered intelligence was cut 
back

to the point that it was virtually nonexistent .Not  virtually
nonexistent (according to Greg Harbican) because funding for Intel had 
been

previously cut back to zero. as you said Todd.The  darned good
intelligence that George W. Bush
said he gets  is darned good intelligence at the start of the 2nd Gulf
War, compared to what he had at 9/11, and it is darned good intelligence
today, compared to what he had at the start of the 2nd Gulf War.

It becomes better every day that he is in office.Fewer mistakes, made,
more information flowing.Even as poor as the intelligence information
may have been when Bush got into office, it was darned good intelligence
compared to over 90% of all the other nations.Human intelligence
gathering, can tell a different story, a different part of the same story,
or even the exact same story, that the pictures tell, and when both are
combined, analysis have more information, than just what pictures alone 
may

give, on which to try and decide what the truth really is.

Clinton made open to the world some intelligence information from that 
part
of the world, that the British gave the US, and it ended up, that they 
lost

human agents ( spies if you don't want to mince words ), because of it.
Because of that the British was very reluctant to share information with 
the
US while Clinton was in power, fearing that he would do it again.I 
don't

blame them.

For that matter, if someone you trusted, told you something that they
thought was true, and you acted on it ( because you trusted them to tell 
you

the truth ), only to find out that your information wasn't as good as it
could have been, who was wrong? You, the friend that you trusted, or was 
it

a mistake?I'm not saying it was a mistake nor am I saying it was not a
mistake, nor would I call you or your friend a liar if you both acted in
good faith on the information you had at the time.An error in the
information?Yes, that is what I would call it.

If you have no reason to believe information is incorrect ( even if it may
be flawed ) how are you supposed to know it is flawed?If later, you 
find
out that your information is flawed, does that make you a liar?No. 
It
just means that you worked with flawed data.It happens all the time 
all
around the world.It even happened to Sadam, his data led him to 
believe

that he could prevent his country from being invaded, by inviting UN
inspectors back into his country, does that make him a liar?No.

2004-10-22 Thread Greg Harbican

Todd,

I think that for the most part, it is just going to be a matter of agreeing
to disagree about Politics and those that make a living from it.

OTOH, I think that for the most part, we do agree for the most that
something needs to be done about world energy practice, although, I believe
that the way it needs to be done starts falling into the realm of politics.

Your idea of a  global Marshal Plan on energy  has merit, the problem is
that the maximum number of terms that a person may be President of the US,
puts a damper on it.Someone that is in office for only a maximum of 8
years, is only looking to do the best they can for those 8 years, because
sure a there are little green apples, the next man in, is most likely going
to change things.

For the idea to have a global Marshal Plan on energy for 16 to 20 years,
means it would have to be a law from congress, and few people their would be
willing to gamble with any presidential ambitions that they may have,
although a few would rather stay in congress where they think that they can
make a long term difference.The one real chance for a global Marshal
Plan on energy, would be to vote a majority of congressional members into
office, that would not care if they served a second term of not, because I
don't think that most Americans would like the results, and would vote them
out the next election.

Should a energy Marshal Plan like law pass, the thing that you would then
have to worry about then is Big Oil and those that benefit from Big Oil (
farmers that rely on the fertilizer that oil is used for, the workers that
work for companies that rely on oil to produce the products and so on )
taking the global energy Marshal Plan law to court, calling it
unconstitutional, discriminatory, ect...

While wanting everyone to have there oars in the water, is nice, I think
that there are just too many people in the world with differing opinions, to
come to a world wide consensus.To many people want the walls and
division, it makes them feel special.To touch lightly on politics,
people like Jessie Jackson appears to like building walls, were as Marten L.
King wanted to tear them down.

H,

I am not sure what is the difference between the semantics ( meaning, essence)
of the statement and the spirit of the statement. Could you elaborate a bit 
here?

In my humble opinion, this statement only sounds nicely, making it a good 
slogan,
but it is empty/broken in essence ... Again I am lost, what is the spirit 
of this statement?


let me show you again how this statement is broken:
WHO gets to decide what each person is able to do, and what are his/her needs?

IF it is the person himself, the system tends to gravitate to the state, where:
each one evaluates his abilities at MIN (meaning they do not produce much for 
the system)
each one evaluates his needs at MAX (trying to exploit system to get maximum 
from it)
This leads to broken system where there is not enough goods produced
everyone lives poorly, chronic shortage of basic goods, even soap and toilet 
paper :)
Former USSR knows this path very well.

IF it is some other person, who decides, what people are able to do and what 
are their needs,
the system tends to gravitate to the state, where:
people abilities are evaluated at MAX (meaning lots of work requested from 
people, compulsory work
in extreme cases)
people needs are evaluated at MIN (even basic needs are thrown out in extreme 
cases)
This leads to a slippery path of the bureaucratic governing, planned economy,
compulsory work, compulsory work camps
Again, the former USSR knows this path very well.

I do not know of any method, which _fairly_ evaluates people's abilities and 
needs.
Of course, if one finds third, better method, the argument may change, but 
untill then
we are stuck with one of the above options, and these lead to UGLY consequences.

Liberal or Conservative?  I have not owned a television for over

entitlement or lack of responsibility for personal action.  Each of our
two children (now grown) has a separate world view and I respect each of

become a trend in using the word victim in one's vocabulary for

demonstrating by example initiative, responsibility for shared action,
bootstrapping, innovation, and freedom to change.  We teach best by
example.  The mind-set and beliefs of a victim most often attract
their experience.

And as a foot note and comment from a different post... I do understand
that biofuels will not solve all the problems.  However, instilling hope

Republicans, living in Indiana, and they ALL let their kids watch all of
the Nickelodeon they want.  Of course, many are so fed up with the way

 Kids Opt for Kerry in Bellwether Online Poll
  October 20, 2004 by Reuter
  http://www.commondreams.org/headlines04/1020-08.htm

  LOS ANGELES - The kids have spoken, and it's
  Sen. John Kerry with a convincing victory over
  President Bush on Nov. 2.

  An unusual opinion poll that has correctly predicted the winner of
the
  last four presidential elections has given Democratic challenger
  Kerry 57 percent against 43 percent for Bush,
  according to results released on Wednesday.

  The Nickelodeon cable channel, better known for programs
  SpongeBob Squarepants and Jimmy Neutron,
  conducted Kids Vote, an online survey of
  almost 400,000 children on Tuesday.

The latest Reuters/Zogby poll showed Bush
and Kerry in a dead heat two weeks before
the Nov. 2 election. Other polls also showed
them in a statistical tie or Bush holding
a slim lead.

  Nickelodeon, a unit of Viacom Inc.,
  has organized its poll every election since 1988, and
  has a 100 percent record of picking the winner.

  The 'Kids' Vote' seems to work as a good barometer of the
  actual presidential vote because, developmentally,
  kids between the ages of two and 11
  share the same opinions and outlooks as their parents,
  said Cyma Zarghami, president of Nickelodeon Television.

  The survey was the final step in a yearlong
  political awareness campaign on Nickelodeon.

Me thinks you missed the point Steve.

When you say



Of course they believe whatever their parents do at that age.



you corroborate that the majority of parents of those children are 
supposedly going to vote for John Kerry.


That was, after all, the point of the poll - that children are perhaps a 
reasonably accurate barometer of the adult voting population.


As for the rest of your remarks?

Sorry to see that after three years of so many mistakes and errors in 
judgement you still believe that a myopically focused zealot who disregards 
reality and real world appraisals at every opportunity and corner is to be 
deemed more highly than those who examine all facets of a scenario and are 
capable of balancing decisions based upon broader and longer range 
consequences.


Being resolute yet consistantly wrong are not quallities to be highly 
prized - no more for leader of the school grounds sandbox than a country.


Mr. Bush reflects the contemporary, corporate, American mindset - quarterly 
results to impress stockholders, not long term profits that insure 
stability. Unfortunately, his repeat quarterly performances are so dismal as 
to warrant his ouster.

For example, H doesn't carry as much specific meaning as it does an

because being mired in the semantics of this exchange is now occupying too much

Gustl,

Very good and the system is not particular for US, it is the same all over 
the world. Look what happened in UK and the suicide, for sure a direct 
result of this. A very good analysis anyway and explains why many feel so 
strong about what happens. The obvious reason for  this and for all wars 
and politics of manipulation during the last 80 years have been oil and why 
should Bush have different motives, the problem is his incompetent and 
antagonistic way of doing it. Bush is very dangerous for the world 
community and US, it is only the latter who does not see it.


Personally I would like to see massive support for ready for use 
alternative energy solutions. The only problems are that George's friends 
would lose their monopoly of energy resources. What we see are results of 
simple and inadequate solutions, based on greed and supported by 
propaganda, all in the interest of US corporations. It is however not 
sustainable policies and US in the end will suffer enormously  from them.

GH Maybe because it was planned, organized, and rehearsed on Clinton's

GH That's right, the pilots were undergoing the 2+ yrs of flight 
training
GH while Clinton was in office.Did I forget to add that Clinton cut 
the

intelligence was

GH by a man, that the US had 3 chances to have arrested and be delivered 
to the
GH US, for trial on other charges, had Clinton accepted on anyone of 
those 3

GH times.

Somehow people have the mistaken notion that all problems can be fixed
by  throwing money at them.  Had Clinton expanded the intel budget ten
fold  it would not have made a whit of difference.  In the middle east
it  is extremely difficult to get on-the-ground human intel resources.
Next  to  impossible.  Money would have made no difference whatsoever.
How  much  money are the lives of oneself and ones family worth?  And,
who  wants  to  help  the patron of the Zionist cause even against the
Iraqi dictator?  One needs to understand the geopolitical thoughts and
attitudes of folks before making decisions about what has happened and
the why's and wherefore's of the events.  Money was NEVER the problem.

GH Someone pointed out a news a story about how over 100,000 hrs of audio 
tape
GH intelligence ( gathered from the satellites that Clinton loved ) from 
before
GH the 9/11, has yet to be translated, and somehow it was Bushes fault 
( How
GH much of this is from before Bush took Office? Just as a guess, I would 
say
GH most of it, that much just doesn't come in over night. ).That is 
over 11
GH years worth of translating for 1 person, if they did nothing else with 
their
GH lives - or 2,500  40 hr work weeks.Let's do the math, Bush was in 
office
GH 9 months, and 11 years worth of audio tape needed to be translated, 
and this

GH was to be done in less than 4 years?No Way!

GH Clinton had 8 years of various terrorist attacks against US targets 
overseas
GH and he didn't make it a priority to find out exactly who was doing 
what

GH Clinton didn't make a priority of having audio intelligence translated
GH faster, if he had allocated funds for 25 translators, he would have 
known
GH who was doing what and could have it taken care of in less than 3 
years.


GH Greg H.

When  working  an  intel billet whether civilian or military the first
thing  one  learns  is  to  look  at  the raw data with eyes which are
detached from ones own personal political/religious/cultural bias.  If
one  fails  to  do that then no matter how good the intel the analysis
will be flawed and may cause unforseen damage to the interests of ones
country.   Intelligence  collection  and  analysis  must be neutral in
order to be correctly and effectively used.

The  long and short of the 11 years of untranslated tapes is that they
were  not  the  problem.  The administration from Bush on down had all
the  hard  intel  they  needed but they ignored that because they were
using  bad,  marginal  and  false  intel to further their own partisan
political  agenda  and  not for the interests of either our country or
that of either Afghanistan or Iraq.

The  neocons, all Zionists to a person and none of whom have served in
the  military,  were in a position to run all intelligence through the
office  of  Doug Feith, another neocon, and what was publicly reported
was  picked  and chosen according to the aims of the neocons.  This is
the  first  time  in  the history of the US intelligence services that
such  a  thing  has  ever happened on such a scale.  What is even more
startling  and disturbing

When you say

you corroborate that the majority of parents of those children are 
supposedly going to vote for John Kerry.


That was, after all, the point of the poll - that children are perhaps a 
reasonably accurate barometer of the adult voting population.


As for the rest of your remarks?

Sorry to see that after three years of so many mistakes and errors in 
judgement you still believe that a myopically focused zealot who disregards

Actually, all of the people that I know who do not own TV sets or allow
their kids to watch TV are true liberals.  I know more than a few
Republicans, living in Indiana, and they ALL let their kids watch all of
the Nickelodeon they want.  Of course, many are so fed up with the way
things are that they are planning to stay home on Nov. 2.  They can't
bring themselves to vote for Kerry, but also refuse to vote for more of
the same.  And, you're right, Hank would be a much better choice than four
more years.  I think that Todd summed it up best, so I won't bother
pointing out the obvious yet again.

 Good thing we don't let kids vote. Of course they believe whatever their
 parents do at that age. That's why we let them develop brains before we
 let them vote.  Republicans don't let their kids watch Nickelodeon, they

 Kids Opt for Kerry in Bellwether Online Poll
 October 20, 2004 by Reuter
 http://www.commondreams.org/headlines04/1020-08.htm

 LOS ANGELES - The kids have spoken, and it's
 Sen. John Kerry with a convincing victory over
 President Bush on Nov. 2.

 An unusual opinion poll that has correctly predicted the winner of the
 last four presidential elections has given Democratic challenger
 Kerry 57 percent against 43 percent for Bush,
 according to results released on Wednesday.

 The Nickelodeon cable channel, better known for programs
 SpongeBob Squarepants and Jimmy Neutron,
 conducted Kids Vote, an online survey of
 almost 400,000 children on Tuesday.

   The latest Reuters/Zogby poll showed Bush
   and Kerry in a dead heat two weeks before
   the Nov. 2 election. Other polls also showed
   them in a statistical tie or Bush holding
   a slim lead.

 Nickelodeon, a unit of Viacom Inc.,
 has organized its poll every election since 1988, and
 has a 100 percent record of picking the winner.

 The 'Kids' Vote' seems to work as a good barometer of the
 actual presidential vote because, developmentally,
 kids between the ages of two and 11
 share the same opinions and outlooks as their parents,
 said Cyma Zarghami, president of Nickelodeon Television.

 The survey was the final step in a yearlong
 political awareness campaign on Nickelodeon.

2004-10-21 Thread Appal Energy



What I did notice was an all encompassing blanket statement, which generally 
places its propigator in an untenable position straight out of the chute. To 
your credit you acknowledge that somewhat.


Don't watch tele here. So I can't say one way or another what would be 
considered healthy children's fair. But then again, it's all rather 
subjective, dependant upon the preconceived notions of those adults casting 
judgment, eh?


Captain Kangaroo and Children's Film Festival (Kukla, Fran  Ollie)  seem to 
have gotten tens of millions of children off to reasonable adulthoods. Safe 
bet that those who were entertained by both are a fairly diverse mix of 
present day demographics, not just one shade or another.


As for your premise of others perhaps thinking this to be an anti-bush or 
anti-american list? It's probably an equally safe bet that in its whole 
this list more anti-wrongness than anything else, no matter what flavour 
it happens to come in.


If one thing tends to pop up as being more wrong more often than another on 
this list, there's probably a long ring of truth to be found in such 
sounding.

You have been so long on the list, that you know that the Americans are an 
minority. If you looked at the latest international polls, the 
international communities are quite ant-Bush. To say that if you are 
anti-Bush, you are anti-American, is a dirty blow and way under the belt

I disagree. Hakan's clear distinction holds good. Many are indeed 
against US foreign policy, or US policy in general, and that includes 
many Americans, and it is not being anti-American. We long ago and 
often since emphasised the difference between Washington on the one 
hand and Americans on the other. In fact I challenge you to find an 
instance of anti-Americanism here.


I don't believe I'm required to listen to one side, without speaking

half truths and hateful misinformation being spread.


We've been through this before Steve. If you're going to say posts 
are half truths and hateful misinformation you have to say WHY, 
remember? Else it's just your opinion, not the fact you present it as 
being. In case you forget, last time you settled for it being nothing 
but your opinion. You can do that this time too if you like, but you 
have to choose, and you have to specify.


99% of my posts are of biofuel, or alternative living content. Many

Well, if you want to speak up for the other side once in a great 
while, of course you're welcome, but then don't run away from the 
consequences saying you've better things to do. Finish what you

You know, for a guy that doesn't have enough time to address what he stirs

Please, would you do everyone a very big service and point to the 
half-truths (plural) and misinformation that you are eluding to? And when 
you've addressed those claims, please be so kind as to zero in on what 
aspects are hateful.


I would think that if you take such great acception with what others state 
that you would redress those statements specifically and steer clear of 
overly broad and sweeping generalizations.


But then again, that type of evasiveness does serve it's purpose, doesn't

you corroborate that the majority of parents of those children are

Sorry to see that after three years of so many mistakes and errors in

reality and real world appraisals at every opportunity and corner is to be

 Good thing we don't let kids vote. Of course they believe whatever 
 their

 parents do at that age. That's why we let them develop brains before we
 let them vote.  Republicans don't let their kids watch Nickelodeon,

 Here's hoping for 4 years of anyone but Kerry. Hank the Angry Drunken

You know, for a guy that doesn't have enough time to address what he stirs 
up, you sure do like to keep that ladle moving.

Please, would you do everyone a very big service and point to the 
half-truths (plural) and misinformation that you are eluding to? And when 
you've addressed those claims, please be so kind as to zero in on what 
aspects are hateful.

I would think that if you take such great acception with what others state 
that you would redress those statements specifically and steer clear of 
overly broad and sweeping generalizations.

But then again, that type of evasiveness does serve it's purpose, doesn't 
it? Nothing wrong with a differing in beliefs. But it would be rather nice 
to see you put some substantiation in print.

 Steve,

 You have been so long on the list, that you know that the Americans are an
 minority. If you looked at the latest international polls, the
 international communities are quite ant-Bush. To say that if you are
 anti-Bush, you are anti-American, is a dirty blow and way under the belt
 and it is nothing that suggest or support such a statement. You must have 
 a
 fairly low opinion of foreigners mental capacity, if you belive that we
 cannot keep our opinions about US administration policies and Americans in
 general apart. It is you who connects them.

Well it was the adults who elected gwb in 2000. A man even prior to 9-11 who
was proven eager to lie or waffle,  however you want to put it, if it served
his ends.  Worse yet who was effectively willing to deal with the Taliban
terrorists on Nov. 10, 2001. Using gwb's own rhetoric to judge him by, he
should be on trial for criminal negligence, much less removed from office.
I rather would have better choices but, I don't see that happening anytime
soon.

Wake up for a change to the number of ways you keep copping out. You make 
claims and then don't substantiate them. You claim one-sidedness but don't 
offer anything, much less anything credible to the side you claim is under 
represented.


Face it. You implicate, instigate and leave a trail of innuendo and then 
walk away as if you're the one who's been dissed.


There are only three possible conclusions to draw from such actions. Either 
your arguments don't have any legs to stand on, your intent is simply to 
discredit and malign, or a combination of both.


You claim you're not the one who stirs stuff up. Well, you're only being 
partially honest. You do more than your share. Take this thread for 
instance. A published poll result which you were the first to jump on and 
twist into a non-sensical set of sweeping statements.


For that? Yes. You and anyone else deserves to get whalluped upside the 
head. BS deserves that type of treatment. I for one would like to hear some 
justification for your position other than emotion. I can expect that from 
the local university ROTC major. I can expect it from the prof in 
Environmental Engineering/Studies who is pulling together a campus biodiesel 
facility. Hell, I can even expect it from my radical, right wing, 
conservative, Christian, post-master who's going to vote for an off-the-wall 
party candidate.


Why can't it be expected from you, or anyone else for that matter?

 You've got to love those kids. 
 They recognize a winner when they hear one. 
 Don't be to harsh on them. 

 How were they to know
 someone wouldn't like the results
 after that there in? 

 They picked Clinton and the Bush's
 and now their moving on with Kerry. 
 Someone had to win. 
 Maybe next time, eh?

  Kids Opt for Kerry in Bellwether Online Poll
  October 20, 2004 by Reuter
  http://www.commondreams.org/headlines04/1020-08.htm
 
  LOS ANGELES - The kids have spoken, and it's
  Sen. John Kerry with a convincing victory over
  President Bush on Nov. 2.
 
  An unusual opinion poll that has correctly predicted the winner of the
  last four presidential elections has given Democratic challenger
  Kerry 57 percent against 43 percent for Bush,
  according to results released on Wednesday.
 
  The Nickelodeon cable channel, better known for programs
  SpongeBob Squarepants and Jimmy Neutron,
  conducted Kids Vote, an online survey of
  almost 400,000 children on Tuesday.
 
The latest Reuters/Zogby poll showed Bush
and Kerry in a dead heat two weeks before
the Nov. 2 election. Other polls also showed
them in a statistical tie or Bush holding
a slim lead.
 
  Nickelodeon, a unit of Viacom Inc.,
  has organized its poll every election since 1988, and
  has a 100 percent record of picking the winner.
 
  The 'Kids' Vote' seems to work as a good barometer of the
  actual presidential vote because, developmentally,
  kids between the ages of two and 11
  share the same opinions and outlooks as their parents,
  said Cyma Zarghami, president of Nickelodeon Television.
 
  The survey was the final step in a yearlong
  political awareness campaign on Nickelodeon.
