The irony must be too overwhelming for you to realize how stupid that comment was.

Mentalfloss your balls must be made of marshmallows. You are all about throwing out the taunts until you get called on it. Others may also be participating in the stupidity but at least they don't hide from it.

Tomorrow morning I think I'm going to create a "I know you are but what am I" thread, to sit in conjunction with Rail against Derails.

I can foresee a lot of stupid schoolyard behaviour getting moved there.....until people finally learn to embrace reasonable self-limitation or they get banned. Simple as that.

Such anger.
I'm sorry I make you so angry.

Well put. Futile, but well put nonetheless.

Scare?

No, I think people want to put trust in their representatives on issues like these because those are the individuals that are best suited to come up with a reliable decision for most people.

A blanket yes or no on a pipeline right now is just a flawed idea, plain and simple.

Bwahahahahaha....I'm sure you felt that way when Harper was PM

Yes, we're well aware of your opinion on the matter. That's probably why the wishes of the majority scares you.

Sure, I never said it always worked :lol:


It's a total waste of time trying to debate with some A$$holes, their object is seldom to arrive at a sensible conclusion, but rather just to bring attention to the fact they are total losers and can't get attention any other way. Don't engage them! :)

It's more efficient this way though. By the time a thread gets into its second page it has usually degraded to an exchange of insults between regulars, so you really only have to read the first page to get all the relevant discussion. :)

Looks like Salty need to get to Utah and donate a million to them.......


A Canadian company’s efforts to produce oil sands in the United States are not dead, but thanks to crude oil prices that have dipped below $30 per barrel, they may be in critical condition.

Our focus is to reduce manpower at the site,” he said.

Tar sands are rare in the U.S., but companies have been trying for decades to produce tar sands oil in eastern Utah, where the country’s largest deposits are locked deep beneath the desert. With oil prices dropping to below $30 per barrel, however, the outlook for U.S. Tar Sands’ operations is uncertain.

Snarr said crude oil prices will matter the most later this year after construction at PR Spring is complete. Oil prices need to be between $40 and $45 per barrel for the project to break even, and U.S. Oil Sands is confident prices will average higher than that by the end of 2016, he said, citing U.S. Energy Information Administration data.

But the EIA’s
latest oil price forecast, released Tuesday, says that oil prices are likely to average $38 per barrel this year, swinging wildly from $21 to $58 per barrel throughout the year.

“Oil companies everywhere are slashing projects as oil prices remain depressed,” said
Jennifer Spinti, an associate chemical engineering professor focusing on tar sands and other unconventional fuels at the University of Utah. “The fact that an exploratory, capital-intensive project gets shut down is not surprising, especially if key contractors have backed out.”
