Hooda Thunkit: Genetically engineered bugs excrete crude.

Cool, how many bugs do I need to get to run my cars ?

Do they have superbugs to make racing fuel ?

 

When oil was $15/bbl, the great thinkers were saying that we were going to run out in year xxyy.

Now that oil is near $150/bbl, suddenly folks are out there finding options, Brazil just found huge offshore reserves that nobody knew before were even there...

As Father Guido Sarducci said in his famous commencement address....

"I'magonnatellaya all ya need to know about economics".... "Issa supplya ana da man"

When fuel is too expensive people are building the wind turbines that were not justifiable before...

Cost goes up somebody finds an alternative.

It's the way of the world... I don't lose any sleep wondering if we will have fuel in 20 years. I only wonder how much it will cost with our stupid government energy policies...

 

Actually, yes. They can make gasoline, so I'm reasonably sure they could make racing fuel as well!

 

Fixed.

So how long until these bugs are attributed to causing an increase in CO2?

 

Thanks for the fix..... You probably can't add enough "stupids" to describe anything that the government does....

Scary tho, the other day somebody was talking about nationalizing the oil companines....

I have no use for big oil, but I am absolutely sure that if we gave the oil production to the government they would find a way to totally screw that up in short order.
