Not in your wildest dreams would McCain/Palin have pulled this garbage.

If you ever need any machining or fabrication work for a prototype, please get hold of me. I have a basic non-cnc machine and fabrication shop, but a very capable and competent one, and I would be happy to help. The work you are doing with home electricity and hydrogen power has always been very interesting to me. I've been working with some ideas (in my head) for home hydrogen generation with small scale wind power producing hydrogen through electrolysis. Hydrogen would be used as a heating fuel, and a fuel cell would be used for electicity, instead of battery storage. Storage is always the tricky part with hydrogen, as I am sure you know.

OH, MAN! - what an AMAZING AUTOMOBILE!! I couldn't believe that Chrysler was able to be SOLD OUT of the COUNTRY...all of those PATENTS that they devloped +!...but it DID HAPPEN. 'MANY THINGS' happen that you just never thought could or would. ***Hey, take 'GoMarcellusShale.com'...the INTERNET -- never thought we'd have things get where they are with THIS! + what's happening now in USA - HERE with these 'alladin's wells', just rub that magic lantern - rub hard! Ha-Ha!!!

!...what 'goes around - comes around', eh?!? Think about THAT...WHERE was the first SUCCESSFUL OIL WELL DRILLED? *Titusville/Oil City, PA - we're RIGHT BACK WHERE IT 'ALL STARTED'!!! - IMAGINE THAT!

Great Car, SIR! If you can dream it - it CAN happen! BELIEVE! READ 'Brad Arnold'...SEE, THERE is 'the American dream' ingenuity, determination - THAT's 'American'! What a country.

The thing that I ALWAYS LOVED & RESPECTED with 'stocks' - being able to have STOCK in a company was THIS...I don't have the 'smarts' that SO many of these people incorporate & use to CREATE all of the WONDERFUL 'THINGS' that Americans have been FREE to pursue, create, and then CAPITALIZE ON. (THAT's RIGHT - we are a nation of CAPITALISTS!!!) BUT - I CAN (by 'owning' even ONE share! of a company) 'OWN' & essentially PARTICIPATE with THEIR ingenuity! THANK GOD that we are still a FREE COUNTRY! I can 'be there' in something that I learn about, believe in, andPARTICIPATE in THEIR ADVENTURE.

Here's something I always found odd. People are somehow either 'Ford guys' -or -Chevy guys' at one point in time, right? *probably STILL are! Anyway - when the 'internet stocks' were 'hoppin'...my dad & our broker used to 'argue' about AOL & YAHOO (remember them?). - They'd go back & forth...each liked 'one or the other' with this one or that one. IF they EACH would have bought 100 shares of EACH COMPANY - they BOTH would have had fun with the 'who's better than who' testosterone! BOTH would have 'won' - by the time stock splits & advances. Funny, eh? ***put your money where your mouth is - it's called, I guess. The other thing - for these folks that ARE incurring ROYALTY CHECKS...MAYBE consider INVESTING part of one of your 'fat checks' (seriously!) in the COMPANY that is on your check! IF my dad would have only taken ONE MONTH of Royalty & 'invested' in that company - what that would have turned into! - *JUST ONE CHECK!

TRY THIS: let's say your check is 'x' (let's call it $5,000). The 'company' the check is from is at $50...buy 100 shares! -or WATCH IT and 'buy the dips' 50 shares here, maybe 100 shares another time (dollar cost averaging.). Don't be anxious - people have gotten onto this CRAZY 'flip' pyscho-phyche...don't 'drive yourself NUTS'! - because it WILL. Research, know what you know, LIKE what you are buying into...enjoy the ride! Know this - you won't 'catch the top', nor 'the bottom', but THIS 'pearl seed' of wisdom I can grant to you: YOU CAN NEVER 'ARGUE' WITH A PROFIT! ***imagine this WHEN you start to 'invest'...you bought at $30/share - '100 share lots' was how I learned (didn't 'cost as much' THEN with an 'even number' 100-200-300-you get the point...) - it goes up & down a bit, BUT - you've done your research & know the 'fundamentals'. It IS a great thing to be able to OWN & PARTICIPATE with the INGENUITY of great minds! - YOU are PARTICIPATING of your 'own choice'! You can buy 'company x' only (if you're that 'ford or chevy guy - a 'one horse deal') - OR you can own 100 shares each of 'company 'x' AND 100 shares of 'company 'y'...OR however you decide to PLAY!...or do nothing - it's YOUR BALL - YOU 'bounce it. Anyway - just gave a few scenarios that may be PROFITABLE as well as FUN! - like I said - I'm not that smart (I know I'll hear from some of you - apparently, you're oh too right...whatever - CHA!) 

WHERE THERE'S A WILL THERE'S A WAY! ONWARD & UPWARD - IT'S THE AMERICAN WAY!!! Love it! THIS is still AMERICA - LAND OF THE FREE & HOME OF THE BRAVE! GOD bless our country, I pray that we can 'hold true' & 'stick tight'...and 'get through the storm'. Old time saying I remember grandparents telling my parents: "If it doesn't kill you - it only makes you stronger" (I should know!) - enjoy the ride!

*If you can't 'go over the wall', go 'around the wall'. If you ca't go 'around the wall' - go 'under the wall'...if you can't go 'under the wall', then get 'through the wall'. but GET THROUGH THE WALL. DETERMINATION! As one light lights another, nor grown less - so nobleness enkindles nobleness. ENDURANCE. Who is John Gault? ***Drake & 'uncle Billy' did it! Aug. 27, 1859! ***"Let's see what YOU can do ole' boy" - my grandaddy would say this to my father when he'd get too 'lippy', ha-ha! WHERE THERE'S A WILL THERE'S A WAY! (blame it all on Arm N. Hammer - HE initially had the insight of 'fracking')

And by the way after reading the article if I win I'll nullify this tax and make them pay you back your money because for the risk the land owner takes and puts up with you are doing the Country and Government a favor.   They are just destroying research and development by hurting the land owner. They need to get their hands out of peoples possessions and we need to get back to all God Given rights apply. If I had my way I'd buy Exxon for the Country and make it a nonprofit national Co-op giving everyone 1.25 a gallon gas. This Country would recover like wildfire as the rest of the world followed.

This is some seriously good trolling.  I'm impressed.  It might be time to step your game up and start hitting DailyKos with some of this.

Robert,

Please...go lie down.

WOW - what a concept. ANYTHING's possible! - IS this possible? again, WOW. POWER TO THE PEOPLE...this would do it! THIS idea really WOULD BE 'power to the people' (MORE than they could EVER know!)!!! UM-HUM, yes, sirree!!! ***Everyone sure loves driving around those big 14-MPG SUV's still! (don't know HOW they can afford it still! - wait till that gas hits $12/gallon! - or more!!!) ***IT COSTS SOMEBODY SOMETHING. ***HE WHO HAS THE GOLD MAKES THE RULES (hey - will you put us back on track with the GOLD STANDARD, too? - please say YES!). You said that you overcame cancer. God has YOU here for a purpose still TOO!!! NEVER GIVE UP - NEVER GIVE UP- NEVER GIVE UP!!! I'm there. Let's do it! WHY NOT?! 

***Hey - 'G&O' industry only started back in 1859!!! It's possible - ANYTHING's possible! Where there's a WILL, there's a WAY! Yeah - it's POSSIBLE...EVERYTHING's 'got a price'! OK - let's 'lightly' start to figure it out...BREAK IT DOWN - BREAK DOWN THE #'S & ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE! IT could get done!

*How many people live in this country? WHAT if you take asking price - divide by EACH PERSON's $ 'contrubution (of free choice - of course...power to the people - FREEDOM OF CHOICE!) -let's say $100, $1,000 PER PERSON to 'buy out Exxon (XON, right?)...how many GALLONS OF GAS (GAS TANK FILL-UPS) is that? Hmm...not too bad when you calculate it THAT way!...Yeah - it could be done. BELIEVE!

There will those that WILL & those that 'won't. OK - fine. The ones that 'WILL' will 'get the 'gold' 'gas price at choice cost'...(it's now THEIR COMPANY!)...the ones that 'won't' will PAY the 'going rate'. AGAIN - EVERYONE has a CHOICE! of their own FREE WILL! --LOVE IT! ***LET's 'DO IT!' WOW!!!

YES - it WILL be a PROFITABLE 'CO-OP'...not a 'non-profit national co-op'. It WILL be 'profitable'. "One can never argue with a profit.",,,he who has 'the gold' makes the rules. ('AMERICA' once had 'rules' that made sense...it CAN AGAIN! HE WHO STANDS FIRM. WHO IS JOGN GUALT? Onward & upward! Let's dance!

I agree Luana. Eric Holder too. This country is such a huge mess now.

Brad, sorry I did not get back to you earlier on my "compassionate conservative" statement the other day. I was referring to President Bush's self-description of his tenure in office. I guess I see myself in that vain, as you described it correctly probably a moderate who wants to watch the purse-strings, but not at the expense of those who are suffering. I do not want the 72 ear old lady having to cut he needed pill in half because she cannot afford the, but I do not want the "28year old guy"collect government money because he is just too lazy to work. It is not an easy task for our country to accomplish the little old lady hesitates to ask for help, the "28 year old" has become an expert. Denver

Denver,

Put your money where your mouth is!!!

If you care about all our well being, old and the young so much and sell your entire farm all the Oil and Gas and donate it in one check to the Government.

Let them decide what is best.

Do it.

Schoozie, I thought we had become best friends. What happened? I do not understand why you get so angry just because someone does not think exactly as you do. as i stated, I want those who need help to get it. I do not care if it comes from the chirch, the government, or the majic "dollar tree" in their back yard. I also know the all us us in our personal life and the government too need to be watchful of the rascals out there. Maybe I am looking at things wrong, so give me some time to come around. I will tell you what. I will continue to try to help the old lady who is struggling and you keep a strong hold on all your money. That way we will both be happy.Still friends?  -  Denver 

I want to know how much of your pension the government can come in and take, be honest and give me a percentage please. Here is an example. On January 1 of this year they took 2% starting in six months, another a 3.8%. Give me an acceptable number.

Here's the terms, you will have no choice.

And by the way your healthcare premiums have doubled in the past three years...again you have no choice.

I am angry, because I am an employer....do you understand??? Just getting by for about 8 years. Now doing well, we hired 7 people last year, full time, because of this industry which you want to destroy.

Smug.

Schnoozie, Thanks for relating to me from where you are coming. It makes your position a bit more clear. First, I definately do not want to destroy or even harm the oil/gas industry. It has been a blessing to my family. When my dad died in 1969 at the age of 48 my mom was lest wit a farm , but little income. a few years later the oil industry drilled seven wells on the farm (not the deep ones like today) which made life so much easier for herHere in Ohio Gov. Kasich plans to initiate an additiona 4% tax on oil/gas production. I worked with a young man, Josh O'Farrell, who ran for the State Legislature on two issues 1. Help our struggling schools 2. stop the state from over taxing the oil/gas industry which would hurt the farmers who depend on it. I am not the smartest guy, but I knowif they are overtaxed the oil/gas industry will go somewhere else. I gues maybe i feel a little guilty that because I was born on my families farm and that 72 year old lady I spoke about was not I will possibly be very wealthy one day while she struggles. I think we each are looking @ the situation from different perspectives. You as an employer who has fought w/ the government and me as an employee who has not. Beleive me, when I fill out my taxes each April I do not smile. On the %: if I am correct (please help me on this if I am wrong) we pay 2.9% now up to the first $250,000 the the rate increases to 3.8% for everything after that. I am a retired teacher, if I make anything over $250,000 a year i will need help in knowing what to do with it. By-the-way, if I have come across as smug it was not inteneded. I appologize if it did. -Denver
