20121 [lbo-talk] Why can't you guys learn to quote and attribute properly? -- rank: 1000
John Bizwas wrote: >(Oh, just to nip it off in the bud, are you going to trust an oil >exec. about how much oil they have? Bingo. A lot of peak oil partisans are oil industry types, looking for tax breaks and a rollback of environmental regs - and to justify high prices. Funny to see leftists so quick to sign up with the program. Well not so funny, given apocalyptic temperaments. Also - I couldn't agree more with the quote and attribute thing.

20125 [lbo-talk] CFP: Sex and Disability -- rank: 1000
