You make our point exactly. The stone age did not end when we ran out of stones. Conservatives are all for alternative energy... when it becomes profitable. (not artificially at that).

Of course we didn't run out of kerosene. What I meant, Is that it will last longer now that there are other ways to light a lamp.

Stones were used as tools, and worn down in the process. Nothing lasts forever. Imagine how long it takes the earth to make more stones.
Then the bronze age came along and luckily for us we still have stones. I like stones. I have them as steps in my garden.

The oil companies are making record profits right now, they can drill in the 68 million acres they already have.
Tough.
You know, I could make a lot more money if I skirted laws in my business, but I don't. That's just the way it is. I don't feel bad for them.

Greedy, wasteful, selfish, lazy, short-sighted, people.
