we will...we have too...
but not until...the timing is right
and it is close...
a little more tweeking of the distabilization in
the middle east...and it will be on...
and...if the price of gas stays above four dollars a gallon...
altenative energy becomes profitable...yay...for a minute,
till they tank the price after we open our oil fields...
this is the best rollercoaster ride ever....
yes, we will have to drill.. sad, but what choice will we have? We don't have an alternative that the public will accept. Wind, Solar,Bio diesel,natty gas... we've been led to believe they are all to expensive.. well duh, of course they are. Because we aren't geared towards them.. and the turn to them will cost and cost a lot.
There are some many new 'green' homes being made with wind and solar.. and what they don't use they give to the local grid.. that house over here that Extreme Makeover just did, has cool new design solar/wind turbine on the roof, it will power the house most of the day and for part of the night they will need to use 'grid' power.. BUT what it produced during the day, is so much and they dump it into the grid for 'credit' that at the end of the month.. even using the grid, they come out ahead and owing nothing to power everything in the 10,000 sqft house..
now, if they can be debt neutral on a h ouse that size.. regular size homes can actual benefit communities all together if each house had the same hook-up and amenities .. imagine, you have all those extra credit power-points, you can 'sell' them to a hospital or some other large building that needs more power than you, and you use less than what your system produces..
but nope, the start up costs are too much and oil is soooo cheap.. so let's just pretend the Oil God will make more and this is all just a bad dream..
