[Medoria]

[Allan]

He says he won't step down before December. gg miyoo

[Bob]

I say we all ride bikes to work 8D. It`ll be the new coolest thing.

[BeanMarine]

Some places were not made for bicycles D: Like San Jose--I kid recently got hit near my old High School.

In any case, I bike to my classes, but Davis is very biker friendly

Ouch. If your car uses diesel, there may be an alternative to gas! My parents were talking about how their friends use the left over oil in fast food restaurants to run their cars. After some filtering and what not ...

[TMM]

Using cooking oil is a good alternative, but it can't be widespread. You have to make a deal with a number of restaurants to give you their old cooking oil. A band that my dad worked with had a van that ran on cooking oil. When it drove it smelled of cheeseburgers.

Diesel here in LA is about $6 and most premium gas is around $5.00. Regular is about $4.60. This has given me even more incentive to put off learning how to drive.

[k0n]

Mm.. In Alaska, it just touched $4.00 for regular. Though, I drive my Hummer very solemnly.

[Adun]

It's soon hitting $4.50/gallon or so in the Seattle area now... :/

... and things cost even more where I'm moving in a few months, so I probably won't be driving for a very long while...

[Henreh]

I'm glad I don't even have any car to drive D:



*takes bus and sub everywhere*

[Miyuki]

Problem is, there isn't enough public transport here <_<

All the buses are ancient and you'll need at least waits for 50minutes to 1h30m just to get on a single damned bus.

Unless using public vans or taxi <_<...they're expensive sometime, but still...no choice.

Gah, that old guy remains till december already makes !@$E%R^[qwerty stuff]

[Catharsis]

Lookie what's on page 10 of TIME magazine June 2 issue:

"We will raise production when the market justifies it."
- Ali Al-Naimi, Saudi Arabia's Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources

That was after Bush requested that OPEC increase production of oil to decrease prices. =.=

HOW2JUSTIFY LOL??

[SlowBro]

lol good thing I'm not a gas-guzzling earth killer.

[ZeR]

The world runs on oil, we seriously need an alternative mean.

[Zyklonß]

They could just drill in Alaska. Damn environmentalists D:

[Blue]

People are lazy. =/

[k0n]

Actually it is the environmentalist that's preventing anyone from drill in Alaska (even the ones that aren't in Alaska... wtf?). I'm actually for drilling seeing that if we ever want to create a new source of energy. How are we going to fund every thing else that uses natural gas as of today? By then, we won't have anything to fund the research.

I'm amazed by that, especially since no one has said environmentalists support terrorism by keeping us dependent on foreign oil to the middle east. One would think that'd get the public backing drilling in the Alaska.

Those environmentalists could also just fix that by finding a way to make shale oil mining efficient, then we could kill a lot of that dependency. However, they don't care, and rather prevent oil drills somehow thinking that'll prevent catastrophes. It is more likely that wars will happen over oil when it gets worse, then the earth will be polluted to hell.
