    Sounds good. Hopefully the corn lobbyists won't put a stop to it. Crazy they can't get a grant because it isn't considered a biofuel.

    It sounds too good to be true. You would think the news media would be all over a story like that.

    If its true and they go public, better buy as much stock as you can afford.
    It could be the breakthrough to get the adabies off our backs and send em packing.

    I think that this would be awesome! I think that I may check this company out. Hot Rider and I have been talking about putting some money in the market.

    At this point from what I read they kept it as quiet as possible
    to avoid competitive issues. If true and they can force
    the price of oil down, drilling will be non existent

    Will oil get to $30 a barrel, no, that's the "cost basis"
    but it could put a lot of pressure to keep oil costs
    down.

    That and getting hydrogen or electric cars on the road
    will be key to forcing oil prices down...

    Chinas growth is killing prices..

    China and Russia got their own oil fields and can't understand why they are using that to raise prices. Just another excuse to make record profits again at our expense. :gah:

    Because they can buy it on the open market,
    force demand up, which forces prices up
    lock in futures and profit from the drive up of prices.

    If they open fields in China they drop
    the price per barrel and thus profits.

    There is a min level oil companies will
    open fields for to pump oil because
    of price points...

    It's not all government restrictions
    Exxon wouldn't go into fields in AK
    and Palin took leases from them
    they just banked them as reserves

    Our government is doing the same by blocking Gulf, Anwar and the Colorado midwest
    oil fields from drilling.

    They (powers that be) talked about bush being in big oil, well, ho-bama is deep in
    environmental back pockets, either way his destructive policies allow lower world supply
    which means higher world prices.

    We pay at the pump....

    In most cases I am all for drilling for oil, especially in places that have the equipment present. With that being said, I do not like the idea of the g-men going into area's under the premise that "they think" there is oil there. :rant: You mentioned Colorado, so I am assuming you are talking about the Bulger Teton area? We had this as a discussion and assignment when I attended the University of Phoenix. For that assignment we were asked if I was for "Preservation, or Conservation?" I don't mind saying that in this case, I chose preservation. The government can, and will screw up that area. Now, if they "ABSOLUTELY KNOW" that there is oil there, then I have no issues with them drilling, but to "destroy and relocate natural habitat" under the assumption that they will find something is ridiculous.

    There are safe and environmentally friendly ways to explore.

    The oil companies have done well, save one well in the gulf
    and even that cleaned up pretty good...

    You cant have your bike and car, electricity, clothes, plastics,
    food, that you need to survive and not have oil.

    I'm not for the government to drill, but for the opening of
    the area for exploration and development of oil and gas.

    I think that this should be left to the private sector. The private sector has stricter rules and regulations that they must follow. The government can ignore things all they want and they do just that.

    I looked around on this companies web site that this thread started out with. I am really interested.

    Problem is that the government has the keys to the kingdom
    and won't let anyone play in the park...

    This would be interesting to follow because if this company becomes successful on a large scale, the government cannot ignore the fact that what they have been preaching has now become a reality. Renewable biofuel that is more environmentally friendly and used only in the U.S. Talk about cutting other people out of the equation. The government will find a way to capitalize on this, there is just no way that they will get cut out of the loop on this one.

    If the government were to block this, what do you think the uproar would be like in this country??

    Why would you think it would be USA only,
    As a corporation there are no government
    state run secrets comrade Johnny LOL

    If I had that company first place I'd go
    is China, major demand, huge geo footprint
    mega billions in sales.

    The key is to find ways to extract oil while
    we continue to search for alternatives.

    the market will not accept limited range cars
    because the price is so high that it may prevent
    the family from any travel outside the work route

    So for the foreseeable future oil is here...

    The key, make it cheaper
    the way, supply and demand
