Subject: RE: BS: Thanks, Canada, for the oil....
too bad so much of the petroleum is burned up generating electricity
and producing plastic products.

I see the real or imagined shortage being used as a scare tactic to
allow more nuclear power plants to be created.

i hear there may be only enough oil to last til 2020-2025--20 or 25 years and we will HAVE to find an alternative...why not start now??!!

with re-newable sources--solar, wind, hydro.

oh, yes, and thanks for the maple syrup, too!
