[ham] RE: [Rhodes22-list] Change of subject matter. From taxes to war.

[Michael Meltzer]

wind/tided/next generation nuke, maybe solar, last stat I saw was a 200 year supply of coal, any and all can be cleanly converted to
hydrogen and from their simple conversions to standard forms of use, all that really the debate is the price point.

I agree the reason for war not the stated reasons, in truth it is "he not liked", muscle flexing, being made an example of and a
method of middle east peace and a classical way to pull a contry out of a resession, the oil is working against Sodom, it being used
to finance "rebuild the county" after the fact.
