Cool, so now the owners of individual stations will be able to dilute their gas without any big rich company to blame.

so rich we don't even **** with stations nemoooooooo

good to see the oil companies doing well

WHERE THE **** IS OUR NUCLEAR ENERGY YOU PIECES OF ****

They're all gonna sell and jump ship before the man is out of office. Brilliant.

Smart on their part.

place down the street from my office jump .12 a gallon in ONE day... yesterday to today.

liberals didnt want a nuclear plant in their backyard...

ditto more petroluem processing plants...

Nuclear +1

I need moneys :/

Correction, "douchebag liberals" didn't want nuclear power plants.

Anybody who has a clue knows its a must (liberal or conservative), and we've been fooked by not driving it as a major force.

Hopefully we can hear more about this in the future instead of whose Rev. said what?

I just want a nuclear powered car... It would be sick!!!!

"douchebag liberals"?

I'm certain you're too young for the words "Three Mile Island" or "Chernobyl" to mean a damn thing to you, but if you're even the least bit interested in becoming educated on the subject, I suggest you google those keywords.

Oh, and while we're on the subject, do you really think the conservatives would allow the building of a nuclear <a word which their leader cannot even pronounce correctly> power plant which would help lessen our reliance on the one business that he and his cronies make so much money from??

The politicians claim that it's drought season again, yet every single year, they ignore the solution which is something the countries in the Middle East have used for years...

Anyone notice that little body of water to the west of us? Anyone heard of a desalination plant? Can anyone tell us why they don't solve the water crisis once and for all?? 75% of the earth is covered in the stuff, yet they won't lift a finger to truly solve the problem, as someone is getting rich on leaving the problem unsolved.

Petroleum processing plants? What good would that do for us? Whenever the oil companies want to raise profits, they simply shut down the processing plants for "maintenance" or some other b.s. reason, jack up the prices a dime or a quarter a gallon, and rake in the piles of money. It's time for the government to completely quit subsidizing the oil industry, tax them at a rate of 80% of their profits, and bring the economy back into a decent standing.

Of course, none of this would ever happen, but...

liberals.. dont get me started...

liberals will not rest until the United States is the same desolate, hopeless, rundown, bankrupt nation that was once the Soviet Union and East Germany. When that happens then everyone will be homeless and impoverished. That must be what stupid liberal Democrats really want.

and how many nuclear plants didn't have accidents?

And yet with the millions of gallons of crude oil have been spilled into the oceans, you still drive a car & use petroleum products.

Bush is not a conservative.
ALGOR's family is old time petro money as well...look into Occidental Petroleum.

Ummm have you heard of hawaii? they have a desalinization plant.




guess what its rusting and abandoned less than 5 years after being made.
why? cost too much to run

:suspicious: These are you reasons against nuclear power? Tin foil hat for you.

This thread is steering itself to teh politics forum.

Summary of Events

The accident began about 4:00 a.m. on March 28, 1979, when the plant experienced a failure in the secondary, non-nuclear section of the plant. The main feedwater pumps stopped running, caused by either a mechanical or electrical failure, which prevented the steam generators from removing heat. First the turbine, then the reactor automatically shut down. Immediately, the pressure in the primary system (the nuclear portion of the plant) began to increase. In order to prevent that pressure from becoming excessive, the pilot-operated relief valve (a valve located at the top of the pressurizer) opened. The valve should have closed when the pressure decreased by a certain amount, but it did not. Signals available to the operator failed to show that the valve was still open. As a result, cooling water poured out of the stuck-open valve and caused the core of the reactor to overheat.

As coolant flowed from the core through the pressurizer, the instruments available to reactor operators provided confusing information. There was no instrument that showed the level of coolant in the core. Instead, the operators judged the level of water in the core by the level in the pressurizer, and since it was high, they assumed that the core was properly covered with coolant. In addition, there was no clear signal that the pilot-operated relief valve was open. As a result, as alarms rang and warning lights flashed, the operators did not realize that the plant was experiencing a loss-of-coolant accident. They took a series of actions that made conditions worse by simply reducing the flow of coolant through the core.
Because adequate cooling was not available, the nuclear fuel overheated to the point at which the zirconium cladding (the long metal tubes which hold the nuclear fuel pellets) ruptured and the fuel pellets began to melt. It was later found that about one-half of the core melted during the early stages of the accident. [b]Although the TMI-2 plant suffered a severe core meltdown, the most dangerous kind of nuclear power accident, it did not produce the worst-case consequences that reactor experts had long feared. In a worst-case accident, the melting of nuclear fuel would lead to a breach of the walls of the containment building and release massive quantities of radiation to the environment. But this did not occur as a result of the Three Mile Island accident.[/b]

Dude im a toatl liberal hippie. I was stating that theres a difference between liberal=me, and douchebag liberal=ppl against nuclear energy.
Maybe you should do some research on it, as I promise you it will be a huge topic for the next Pres.
Dude less people have been killed by nuclear energy plant accidents than tons of other things, E.G. CIGS! Car accidents!

Tragedies happen pal. Mistakes have to happen to further ourselves/a technology, and frankly a lot worse **** has happened. Also, most of the severe accidents were not in the US. I didn't google anything you said, but im sure you are referring to the one in Russia or Checnia or however the f you spell it. Actually I have a good memory so I know a lot of this stuff, but I don't see why that makes me special.
Anyways you can keep letting our environment get ruined while ****ting on ouro country, or you can learn something about science and step up in support of building up our nuclear energy.......

or you can get around like fred flinstone.
