He does something that all of us remember from a dim past, work for a living. I suspect he may be a Canadian because he follows the edmonton oilers so veracity may be a problem. here is a few pics that he purports is from those hard to extract, uneconomical oils shales sands in Canada http://home.comcast....liaoxley/oil1.jpg http://home.comcast....liaoxley/oil2.jpg http://home.comcast....liaoxley/oil3.jpg http://home.comcast....liaoxley/oil4.jpg http://home.comcast....liaoxley/oil5.jpg http://home.comcast....liaoxley/oil6.jpg http://home.comcast....liaoxley/oil7.jpg http://home.comcast....liaoxley/oil8.jpg http://home.comcast....liaoxley/oil9.jpg http://home.comcast....iaoxley/oil10.jpg

Further, the fact of the politics of science-iggerant massively Corporate-funded Reps guarantees that 'scientific literacy' shall continue to be beside-the-Point: until there is public funding of all Representative elections and full disclosure of every lobbyist's contributions: this info prefacing every bloviation on the public record. Doable, not even hard to enact -- but odds remain slim when only the rich can buy a Rep. Apples, oranges. Mobs/pitchforks. Muricans are ~uneducable, in the mass. The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary. -- H.L. Mencken

The biggest problems with the oil sands are groundwater contamination, river contamination, destruction of the local ecosystem, and massive CO2 production. The natives downriver from those megaprojects are beginning to seriously bitch about how the fish they catch taste like petroleum and that they can't help but notice that a lot more of their people are kicking off from weird cancers at young ages.
