Revolt all you like. No one makes you buy gasoline, pedal away if you like.
Not trying to start a debate, but I just feel that the conspiracy theories
should all be pointed to the stupid environmentalists and tree huggers who
are the most to blame for this mess, its just what they wanted. It is easy
to blame the oil companies, I do not fully, but they share a partial blame,
but so do we all.

No, I don't want to get into a heated debate. I was just posting
everything form what i have been reading over the last 10 years or so.
actually, there is far more to it but, again, I don't want to go there.
What does amaze me about this and others I have mentioned this to is
the wealth of information on the mainstream media that there is to
support it. When you really start getting into it and reading how much
further this goes beyond just the refineries, you would want to revolt.
